DETECT - OTTONIAN B2B NEON WARRIOR

Written By David Conde

This month’s DETECT comes from the Tbilisi-based duo @ottonian & Neon Warrior (@gocha-4).

Long-time residents at TES Club, their journey together began in the early hours of countless nights, tweaking systems, exchanging music, and exploring the deeper intent behind club culture.

While Neon Warrior’s sound is defined by minimalism, subtle pressure, and hypnotic repetition, Ottonian draws from the raw percussive traditions of Detroit and Chicago. Their shared project is less about perfect alignment and more about navigating friction: two distinct voices pushing each other forward.

This mix is an excerpt from Ottonian & Neon Warrior’s extended set recorded live at TES Club’s birthday party on November 7, 2024 in Tbilisi.

DETECT 163: Ottonian & Neon Warrior is now available to listen.
