"When it comes to me doing pre-recorded DJ mixes it's always about capturing the groove that I’m feeling at this time, which is why many of my DJ mixes differ from each other. Because DJing for me is all about tapping into what you feel right now. So please enjoy this CLUB E.A.S.E. mix #1 made possible by all of this amazing music." - @nightmares-on-wax

Bleep Mix #272 - Nightmares on Wax presents CLUB E.A.S.E.

Ahead of her return to the club next Friday, Hilit Kolet delivers an hour of her signature percussive sound, blending classy house, bouncy hip house, drum machine workouts, a drop of raw techno and a hint of acid - capturing the dynamic energy of her high-octane DJ sets.

The London-based DJ and producer is behind the bleeding edge of 2025’s fiercest beats; after making her fabric debut in Room 2 this December, she's now set to return to the club, taking over Room 3 with the Stories family to celebrate their 1st birthday.

“This mix was a lot of fun to record; I slipped in a couple of cherry-picked vinyl gems from my time at Black Market Records along with some of the most exciting tracks I've been playing in my sets recently. Also, a few of my upcoming releases and a couple of freshly bounced numbers that I’ve just finished" -Hilit

A very special 40th episode showcases arguably one of the best triple packs every released, especially considering it was relatively early in the timeline of mix cd history (1996). It features selections from Derrick Carter, Andrew Weatherall and Back to Basic's resident, Ralph Lawson.

We originally featured this CD in the early days of The Classic Mix CD Series, when it was recommended by Shindig's Scott Bradford as his most influential piece in his collection.

So it's fitting, that after more shouts out to use it from everyone on Facebook, that we feature all 3 discs for the 400th episode celebration. Thanks to everyone for getting involved all of the plays and positive messages.

Can me make it 500!?

Back to Basics: Cut the Crap

041 - Back to Basics 'Cut the Crap' - Andrew Weatherall / Disc 2 (1996)

'Backflash' – as the title of Kellerkind's new EP on Stil vor Talent rightly suggests – is a full-blown blast from the past that utilises 80s aesthetics in order to craft a wonderfully contemporary EP much in vain of the en vogue sound of 2011: slow, forceful goovers with basslines so big, they might just crush you. Nothing less was to be expected of the charismatic Swiss producer Marco Biagini who has already proven his wide-ranging understanding of house music with tracks like 'Länzer is a Dänzer' or 'Groovebox'. 
On the A-side, the title track works around a delicately crafted, vintage Miami synth lead: while it naturally provides 'Backflash' with a nostalgic touch, its mellow qualities are lifted by a dangerously obese bassline and devilishly catchy hook. Add Kellerkind's impressive ear for groove and vocal sampling, and you're on to an absolute winner. Moving on, Niko Schwind's remix of 'Backflash' subtly shifts the original’s elements around while extending on its vocal sample – a soulful voice urges the listener to 'get it right'. When the break introduces Schwind's trademark piano keys and shuffling rhythmic structures, it's clear that the SVT stalwart is once again on target here. 
Kellerkind continues to explore the vintage theme on the B-side with 'Disco Light', whose laser synths, mesmerising bleeps and chugging bass might just catapult you back to Paradise Garage in '78, were it not for the track's classicist house percussion. Finally, 'Down To' brings the fun back to the dancefloor as Kellerkind's own deep vocal hums serve to replace a traditional bassline. Underlined by yet another beguiling synth motif, ‘Down To’ concludes this stunningly retro-futuristic EP, which is both, sonically coherent and viciously enjoyable. A brilliant start to 2012!

Backflash

Total dedication to and a constant focus on music, caring for and respectful of others. These are the attributes best to describe Kellerkinds type. Nothing could be more beautiful than to realize a project in total harmony.

Recording of Andrew Weatherall's set at Dekmantel Festival 2019.

Dekmantel Festival 2019

Andrew Weatherall at Dekmantel Festival 2019

ARTIST: SOUKIE & WINDISH 
TITLE: FLATMATE GHOST 
REMIXES : KELLERKIND & ANDRES ZACCO 
LABEL: DARKROOM DUBS 
CAT #: DRDLTD006 
RELEASE DATE: 3RD DEC 2012 (VINYL)/ 17TH DEC 2012 (DIGITAL)

Silicone Soul's Darkroom Dubs, known for its unfaltering output of quality house, returns with their Limited Edition Vinyl series with an EP from Hamburg and Berlin based Soukie and Windish. The 'Flatmate Ghost' EP takes the classic tech house aesthetic on a laid back, rolling journey, while two distinctly dissimilar remixes open your eyes and ears further.

Title track 'Flatmate Ghost' quickly lures you into a subtly relaxing beat but as soon as you're locked, dissonant synth bursts and ominous, pitched down vocal meanderings immediately disrupt the dance. While Kellerkind's take on the original brings forth a shoulder swinging groove, soothing piano riffs and clever silences. Andres Zacco's version moves with relentless percussion, delving into the hollow depths of dark bass.

'Quality Time' offers the more sensual side of Soukie & Windish's production. Here, otherworldly harmony prevails while the characteristic jarring stabs take a backseat. Soukie & Windish manage to visit opposite ends of the spectrum without losing the unique creative resonance the pair found in this collaboration.

With the 10th Anniversary of the label fast approaching and a monumental raft of forthcoming releases ahead, this is a mouthwatering taste of what's to come from Darkroom Dubs in 2013.

Soukie & Windish - Flatmate Ghost (Kellerkind Remix)

Everyone at fabric is devastated about Andrew Weatherall’s passing, and our thoughts and condolences are with his family and friends at this difficult time. When the news broke on Monday, we spent most of the day thinking of the best way to commemorate Weatherall’s chapter in our story, but as soon as we put fabric 19 on our office speakers, we felt like sharing it with our community made the most sense. 

For the next week, the full mix will be available to stream here. Back when we were working on releasing this album, Weatherall left us with the following words, which sum up his approach as an artist better than we ever could. We are proud to be able to share one piece of his enduring legacy. He will forever shine like a star. 

“It's only in the last five years that I've considered myself a DJ, ‘cos when I first started, I just played records. I thought of it as a job, but I never thought of it as a career. When you start thinking career, you start thinking ‘Game plans’, and ‘I've gotta be at a certain stage’, and ‘Oh, why am I still doing this’ if, you know, ‘My career should be here’. Call me an underachiever. I think if you start thinking of it as a career, you start thinking you've gotta be here at a certain time, then you start taking shortcuts and start making the wrong kind of decisions. For a long time I put myself down and said it wasn't a proper job. But it is.” – Andrew Weatherall
