⁂ Charles Parker Prize 2015 — Silver Award ⁂

Two men come to terms with loss —  in an open, honest confrontation of memory and grief.

A programme about death as a part of living, about pain in remembering but also in forgetting. We are but passing clouds — in the vastness of the experiences we call life. 

From The Mourning Diary by Roland Barthes: 

“There is a time when death is an event, an adventure, and as such mobilizes, interests, activates, tetanizes. And then one day it is no longer an event, it is another duration, compressed, insignificant, not narrated, grim, without recourse: true mourning not susceptible to any narrative dialectic.” 

“How strange: her voice which I knew so well, and which is said to be the very texture of memory ('the dear inflection...'). I no longer hear. Like a localized deafness..”

The Trace of a Cloud in a Chest / Produced by Weidong Lin

An hour of soundtrack moments from Krzysztof Kieślowski, the high philosopher of late 20th Century filmmaking.

Beginning his career working in non-fiction and documentary filmmaking, Polish director Krzysztof Kieślowski soon became drawn to the possibilities of fiction, exploring the deep moral anxieties of his creations. Firstly through explicitly political works like "Personnel" and "No End", and then through more universally human studies, like "Dekalog", and his famous "Three Colours" Trilogy".

Kubrick said of Kieślowski: "[he has] the very rare ability to dramatise their ideas rather than just talking about them. They do this with such dazzling skill, you never see the ideas coming, and don’t realise until later how profoundly they have reached your heart.”

NTS ~ GiGi FM B2B Altinbas At Stone Techno Festival 2024

Hailing from Los Angeles, all-vinyl DJ and producer 1morning is making waves both in North America and internationally, having performed in Japan and on his European tour. With a knack for blending old school and new school Techno and being heavily inspired by sounds of the ‘90s and ‘00s, he stands out for his vintage style of swung Techno and Hardgroove. Starting his production journey while still in school, 1morning's percussive Hardgroove tracks uniquely fuse elements of Disco, Jazz and Bossa Nova, reflecting his broad musical influences.

Gear up for a first-class hour of 1morning. 

Tune in to #218

Setting the tone for the party, WVRM POOL warms up the dance floor with a subdued version of his signature sound. He moves from atmospheric techno, chuggy downtempo, into percussive, feral tracks. This hypnotic set guides listeners through an expansive journey exploring vast, extraterrestrial landscapes into verdant forests.

Thanks for the honour xx @foldldn

Waves of pulsing, layered techno from the revered Mala Junta resident.

If the electronic music industry is caught in the crosshairs of a battle over what makes for true techno, then D.Dan is one of the underground's great modern emissaries.

A figurehead from the new guard of DJs to arise in the '20s, the Berlin-based artist and Mala Junta resident is an ambassador for a sound that is strongly anchored in the classic roots of techno. His productions, like his mixes, are revved-up takes on the hypnotic wormholes that defined dance floors last decade, but with a fresh (and high BPM) millennial twist. 

Originally from Seattle, D.Dan became enamoured with the spectral stylings of psych rock and shoegaze in adolescence. It's not difficult to see how the cosmic tapestry of bands like Cocteau Twins became a blueprint for the entrancing music he's gone on to make as an adult. His releases on Mutant Future and summerpup are latticeworks of loops and layered percussion, custom-tooled for lost hours on the dance floor and drawn-out mixes behind the decks. 

This approach directly extends into his DJ practice, where he pairs song selections from contemporaries that mirror his own reduced, controlled approach to techno. RA.994 is a Grade A display of contemporary four-to-the-floor from flagbearers like Roll Dann and Marcal.

And like D.Dan's standalone records, his RA Podcast finds room for sweetness—the intermittent peal of an open clap, the steady ripening of a chord—while ultimately emphasising the beauty of function and form over flair.

Anabel Arroyo is the 449th guest of our original HATE Podcast series.

A key figure in today’s club culture, Anabel Arroyo crafts sets led by instinct and always guided by the body.

This mix reflects the sound Anabel is currently diving into, a personal and physical exploration of movement, connection and emotion through rhythm.

It begins in sparse, minimal terrain, just enough pulse to lure you in, then, layer by layer, grows into a dense, percussion-driven journey built for the dance floor.

As always, her focus is on creating a space where energy flows and emotions move freely. A set that invites you to let go, to follow the beat, and to get immersed in a story told through sound, tension and release.

It’s about synergy. About freedom. About dance as a place of presence and pleasure

Today’s Deep Mind Music entry is a trip through the depths of the earth from Shoal 🌘🌙

Listening to this set I was transported into another realm of being, taken by the hand through the mists of time, into the molten core of the earth. A transmission from the collective unconsciousness of mankind, sinking into the faded memories of our ancestors. Megalithic drones contrast with intricate moments of delicate celestial harmony, as iridescent shimmers of light glint into a shadowed cave. As the mix concludes, we softly re-emerge, floating on a blanket of rainbow-hued clouds ✨🤍

This mix is a live set made entirely of music composed by Shoal, formed from a series of recordings. It features field recordings captured in Japan, as well as a jam session with flute (Urosh), contrabass (Julian Tjon Sack Kie), and sound exploring a tam-tam gong, all collaged together. Thank you Shoal for this moving and evocative journey taking listeners through the primordial beyond 🌌💠🌀
