so elevated and also so fundamentally good. Like F Schubert.   Hope anyone who's seeing RC at berghain tonight enjoys!

RIVAL CONSOLES OMG, I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE YOU EXIST, ITS SO PERFECT FOR AN ACTUAL PERSON

the amount of sences and life situations you can see in just one song is crazy, something relatable always hides here in the songs of that great musician

Love this set & every song I've heard of yours.

As the pandemic restrictions are set to ease soon in the UK and we finally had some hot weather, I was getting nostalgic for the feeling of playing outdoors at festivals and excited about the prospect of being able to do it again soon. My manager Jonny and I decided to set up an impromptu festival stage in the courtyard here at the studio in Brighton, so I could play some tunes and create a virtual festival experience for you!

İzel Baybars, known as Pleizel, was born in Istanbul, Turkey. An emerging sound designer and composer. Pleizel has constructed music for TV series, movies, digital media, immersive spaces and live events.

Words about artwork:
“This artwork generated by Midjourney’s AI. After I finished the set I started to listen the recording again. At the moment I created the keywords of some emotions and objects which reaches to my mind. While I was listening the set, I felt myself in microcosmos of the macro universe. So then I imagined human cells which are made from Nebulae and here is the result."

Mesh Mix Series 023: Pleizel

Rival Consoles performs live at Le Guess Who? 2022 as part of the program curated by clipping.

About
Throughout his critically acclaimed fifteen-year career, London-based producer Ryan Lee West has reinvented himself with each lauded release. His work is bound, however, by his increasing drive to humanize sound. His music has evolved from his challenging early electronic output to more conceptual and metamorphic sonic theses, such as 2020’s ‘Articulation’ and last year’s ‘Overflow’- an emotional exploration of technological advance’s consequences to human nature. 2022 saw his much-awaited return with his eighth release via Erased Tapes, titled ‘Now Is’.

Recorded at TivoliVredenburg’s Ronda on Friday, 11 November 2022.

Nils Frahm Boiler Room x Dimensions Opening Concert Live Set

I've been listening to Essential mixes since I first started getting into clubs and electronic music, so it was a shock, and exciting for me, to get the offer to make one myself. The two hour format really allows some time to explore ideas musically as well.

So bringing everything together, I decided to try and make it an exploration of everything that has made me so obsessed with electronic music for the last 20 years, with some of my favourite records from the mid 90's, unreleased material from my favourite artists like Nils Frahm, Lusine, Tim Hecker and Rob Clouth, and a range of genres from ambient to 90 bpm electronica, house and techno, all the way up to 170bpm glitched jungle mayhem - I thought, why not have some fun with it!?

So it's certainly not a normal club mix, it's just what I think is the best music out there, without worrying about what genre or box any particular track fits into or how things should be done "properly". I wanted to leave some sections quite ambient as well, to give breathing space between the peaks, so I'm happy to be able to post this new version up, minus the broadcast talking and idents.

The mix also contains some new work from me, some unreleased, and two tracks from my new EP with Tom Hodge, one of which you can download for free from here www.maxcooper.net, the other you can download from iTunes - http://hyperurl.co/MCartefactEP - or Beatport - http://btprt.dj/1DHZhHk

Mesh Mix Series 007: Alex Banks

A curated series where we commission artists to make an hour long mix of whatever inspires them to experiment, produce, play out and what they listen to.

"This mix reflects back on the past year of personal releases, including tracks from the ‘Beneath the Surface Remixed’ EPs and my entry for the Monkeytown 10 Year Anniversary Compilation. In keeping with the Mesh theme, a collaboration between myself and Max Cooper (that could be seen as the start of my journey to this label) sits alongside music that’s inspired me throughout the lockdown period. From abstract and ambient to driving, epic techno, I had these tunes turned up loud in the studio and imagined what it would feel like to play this set in a club. I hope in the absence of any opportunity to do that at the moment, this mix helps transport the listener to that place we are all missing!" - Alex Banks

Mesh Series 07: Alex Banks

Further information: bleep.com/features/bleep-mix-162-Max-Cooper

Mesh; the name brings to mind an underlying foundation, a wire frame for a crafted piece of art to ensure structural integrity. It’s an apt name for multimedia artist Max Cooper’s electronic imprint, where the MO is clattering rhythms and voluminous ambient vistas; sound as a vehicle for big ideas. Cooper’s exclusive Bleep mix celebrates the achievements of Mesh with a collection of works from their discography, featuring the ambient swells of Rob Clouth and some especially crisp breakbeat re-alignments from the likes of Reid Willis and Synkro. To top it off, there’s a couple of unreleased Cooper numbers you won’t hear anywhere else.

"Hi Bleep and listeners, many thanks for getting me involved on your awesome mix series. I've been really excited about the music we've been releasing on Mesh recently, so I decided to combine a lot of Mesh content with Laurel Halo's beautiful new remix of the Glassforms EP with Bruce Brubaker on Infine, and a couple of unreleased bits fresh from the studio which I've been playing around with in recent weeks and which probably won't be heard in their Bleep mix form anywhere else as they're still actively evolving pieces. It's a wander through some of the music which I've been using for escapism in recent times, rich with narrative and imagery if you can spare me some time with headphones on and eyes closed." - Max Cooper
