Vancouver's @djhockey brings a sense of playfulness, groove, and emotion to a realm of psychedelic, twisted techno that can often take itself too seriously. He regularly appears at Vancouver venues like Dolly and recently played at the inaugural Osmosis in the Trees festival in Oregon. In addition to DJing, he co-runs record label and mix series @pprzrecords alongside Adam 2, uplifting emerging artists from across the underground and most recently releasing his own latest EP, Celestial Pursuit.

"This mix combined parts of various gigs I was working on that fell through. The gigs had quite differing musical lineups and set times, which I combined with some tracks that had been sitting in my wishlist on Bandcamp but never seen a fit for a particular project as of yet. It quickly turned into my favourite mix I’ve created thus far, as I feel it closely represents my favourite aspects of dance music all in one.

I have been working on trying to incorporate a wider range of my style into my podcasts so that each one doesn’t get tunnel vision, while still telling a slow burning story. I’ve also been pushing myself to make each individual blend something unique. Lots of tracks work well together, but is it something special and new? These are questions I have been asking myself more lately. I like the playfulness of this mix, but it also has moments where you may question what emotion you’re feeling."

Spontaneous Affinity #053: DJ Hockey

For the 10th International Drone Day, we are very happy to share Transience's 50th contribution on Cashmere Radio. For this auspicious occassion we have invited Menou and Paul Josef to join host Lou Drago in the joy of droning. Lou begins the episode with a new work that takes elements of a recent work Still, and reimagines these components in a more narrative form to take listeners on a journey, Menou's hardware synth live set comes next, full of emotion and enthralling the listener before landing in a Japanese melodic ending. Paul Josef's serene modular synth live set closes the episode with gentle swelling harmonics that leave listeners with a warm embrace. 

This episode of Transience was live on 27 May, 2023

The sets have been uploaded individually, but in the order they were presented on the night. We highly recommend listening on headphones or good speakers from a horizontal-ish position.

Hailing from Minneapolis. Jobot has been mixing records and promoting electro and related music since the early 2000s. He draws from a diverse sonic palette — elements of electro and techno, 303s and FM basslines, 4/4 chuggers and fragmented breakbeats — combined with a selector’s ear and, hopefully, a bit of a sense of humor.  italo b-side over some dub techno that’s 30 years newer — why not, if it works it works !!  A long time veteran of techno mecca Detroit’s annual festivities, favorite musical experiences as of late include Interdimensional Transmissions’ No Way Back, I-F’s perspective expanding Intergalactic FM Festival in The Hague NL, and Intellephunk and Enemy Records’ excellent hypnotic techno campout The Great Beyond in rural Minnesota.

Muzan is very proud to host DJ Morita's expertly crafted mix from our Subterra party last June at Upsidedown, Osaka.
Familiar to Osaka clubbers as a deft selector and smooth operator behind the decks, Morita's 12-1:30am set guided dancers through an underground of deep techno smokers and hypnotic firecrackers, onwards and downwards into the night. We're beyond happy to share that moment with you here!
Visit Morita's SC for a few more nocturnal mixes that will take you where you need to go:
