Mixes & Recordings

Living Room n°5 ~ @lexstein

q. is there a story behind the mix? how did it come together?

> It was inspired by these strange, trying times we're living through. One year ago the pandemic hit and life changed drastically.
As a result, my mood, and thus the music I chose to listen to, also changed. Ambient music became my go to to both decompress and focus on working while at home every day, all day.

q. describe a favourite object in your living room...

> My kids, Eleanor and August, and a photo of my late beloved son, Xavier.

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

> I used to draw a lot as a kid, and I recently bought supplies to start that up again. I'm mainly focusing on landscapes using colored pencils or pen and ink. Also, I'm in the beginning stages of planning to start a record label.

Tracklist: www.lowendtheorists.com/radio-shows/skylab-radio-patricia-wolf-salamanda

This month’s Theory Therapy show on Skylab is a pretty special one: 2 guest mixes, the first from Portland’s Patricia Wolf, the second by Seoul-based duo Salamanda. We’ve been a huge fan of both artists for a while and their mixes are further proof of why. Wolf’s expansive and hypnotic hour of electronics sets up the Korean duo’s mesmerising mix perfectly. Both artists feature on the forthcoming Theory Therapy charity compilation, out August 6th.

Post-Geography NTS Guest Mix

We probably don't need to tell you who Deadbeat is. (He even did a previous RA Podcast for us, all the way back in 2007.) But if you need a refresher, he's one of the most important and revered artists in dub techno. The Canadian artist came up in the Montreal scene alongside other trailblazers like Akufen and other Canadians (think Cobblestone Jazz, Mathew Jonson, Wagon Repair, etc). His early records for ~scape are some of the most classic and influential minimal there ever was, but dub is always at the heart of his work, and runs in the veins of BLKRTZ, the prolific label he runs himself.

Sa Pa, on the other hand, sits somewhere in the ambient zone. Originally from Adelaide, he's found a powerful creative sparring partner in Deadbeat. The two released their first album together, The Mountain, earlier this year. It's the 50th release on BLKRTZ and maybe one of the most monumental records in either artist's catalogue, a triple-LP that harks back to the hypnotic, plink-plonk days of yore with the strong cross-genre underpinning that marks Deadbeat's work these days, and plenty of lovely atmospheric wiggles.

The duo's lengthy RA Podcast, taken from two different recordings at their Absurd Dub Lustre party in Berlin, mirrors the LP's sound, weaving through tracks new and old. It's full of warm, dubby vibrations and smooth transitions.

With studied and meticulous elegance, Sa Pa summons a Dionysean tempest, a writ to harness the coming storm. It's humbling to share this and more so to listen, a fervent tour de force recorded live at Paral·lel Festival, a call to convergence under the boundless Catalonian sky.

Wake & bake with NWAQ fm (also for evenings) [09.08.2023]

For the third installment of our podcast series, we welcome Australian-born Berlin-based dj, producer, and soundscape artist Sa Pa. With a name referencing northern Vietnam's high, foggy mountains, expect a live recorded podcast from our May party that resembles the northern parts of Vietnam: Hazy, clear and unclear, mystic, and at times pushing forward, finding directions, this podcast feels like a (musical) journey of ambient soundscapes, dub, and pitched down that leaves one to reach the higher spheres (of Vietnam).
