Every Tuesday, join me for a new hour of House and Techno, mixed by myself and some very special guests from Asheville, North Carolina, and the surrounding regions.

Synth Etiquette Radio | All Episodes

Well, well, well... I bet you didn't expect to see this pop up on your feed today! After a long hiatus, the show is back again. It's been a strange year, so I removed myself from social media for a while to make sure I had my head on straight. But, now we are back and ready to bring you fresh mixes from the region's finest selectors. But before we get to all that next week, I wanted to kick things off with a set I've been holding on to for a while.

This set was recorded live at Deerfields for Haven 2 back in July. I played a late night set, which meant I was ready to light the place up with some hard, hypnotic, and driving techno. It's a whirlwind, and I hope you enjoy it. 

It feels good to be back.

This week is well, very much as techno as the last episode! I am very pleased to FINALLY present to you this mix Marcus Monaghan threw together for the show. It is an hour of slamming techno tunes to get you through the rest of the week.

Couldn't be happier to have Peri Meters on the show. You guys know the deal by now, so I'll let her set the scene for you, in her own words.

"The title says it all. Sit back and sink into some of the odd, pulsating, and deep sounds of a haunted house. Reminiscent of a mixtape your goth girlfriend made you in 10th grade, this set was inspired by the innovative folks who host Goth Night at the 27 Club. <3"

Synth Etiquette Radio | Episode 112 | Peri Meters - Halloween is My Love Language

Wow. That's one of the only words I was able to muster after this set. This set was recorded live at a wonderful house party on 11/5/21, and ended up being a once in a blue moon type experience. Myself and Peri Meters, whom you know as Double Helix, ended up playing a set featuring Asheville's legendary Gilbot to what can only be described as the dance floor of the year. I say featuring Gilbot, and not B2B because while we did our normal 1 and 1 tag routine, They were mixing, remixing, adding, and improving the set over us the entire time. I've never really experienced anything like it, and I hope you enjoy listening even half as much as we enjoyed playing.

Closer w/ Rowan Triffitt (February 2022)

Klaws live mix recorded at the DOB Exploration party this past March. 

Had a blast building sounds from the ground up and taking the listeners & dancers on a musical journey starting with dub and slowly building to minimal, house and techno towards the end of the set. 

Also very much enjoyed playing in this mix two Klaws original tracks, one already released and another one upcoming release on Pure Perception Records. Hope you enjoy the ride!

Klaws Live Set At DOB Exploration - 03/05/2022

A brand new guest on the show is always a treat. Please welcome Travis Christian for his debut!! He brings 2 hours of house and techno full of grooves and moves that we just love to hear. 

Some words from the man himself:

"Lately I've been giving a good deal of thought to the concept of resonance. In the natural world we observe objects that resonate with particular frequencies. A certain length sound wave can cause the right crystal to vibrate, even sing. Tuning forks resonate our ear drums, or not, confirming that we can or cannot hear a particular frequency. The eqs and filters producer use on our tracks allow us to increase the resonance of particular frequencies within a synth note or sample. So when we say something resonates with us, what we really mean is that it connects to our frequency. It's on our wavelength. It matches our vibration. While no single track, song or sound could ever express who we are in total, an aesthetic, a "whole vibe" can.

Having just launched and started the process of building my own label Shadow Mined Recordings, I am very thankful to Aidan and Synthetiquette Radio for the opportunity to share the sound that represents my resonant frequency. For this mix, I wanted to put together a set of tracks, some older, some new, at least one that may never see the light of day, that reflect as closely as possible the aesthetic, the frequency that SMR is built on and continually aims for. It's a sound that resonates and reflects back to me parts of myself I perhaps would not have discovered in its absence. It describes who I am in a meaningful way where words fail. In a sense, I consider this vibe, this feeling, an introduction to who I am and what I'm about, not only musically, but at a deeper, unspoken level I am still, and always will be, in the process of discovering."

Lick the Micron - Predawn to Sunrise live at FnF XXIV (2022)

Back in April of this year, Synthetiq Frequencies got together and kicked off an incredible partnership at one of our favorite venues, Rusty Lotus. Double Helix played a hybrid live set that, to this date, they believe to be their best work yet. While every live set has improved on the last, and they've been proud of their new direction and innovations, this set was surrounded by an electric dance floor who were beyond receptive of what they brought to the table. We've waited long enough to bring you this set, and if you're on the fence about coming to check out this live act, we hope this steers you in the right direction. Listen as Peri Meters effortlessly mixes the perfect foundation for Aidan's improvisations below. We hope you enjoy!!

I just wanted to let you know that I miss you.

I Miss You

A Kiss In The Dark (Lucid Version)

Skinz is not just a famous Ukrainian and world wide brand for fashion. Skinz is also the artist name of the founder of all these beautiful creations. Welcome to the person behind: Nataliia. With her first release ever release she enters the aquarium with two outstanding and absolutely JEAHMONish tracks that shape a spicy mix of Indie Dance and modern Electro music. Both tracks “Vogue” and “Appi” have this special character. Both are going deep, both have a mystic atmosphere and give a smart advice inside: turn up the volume and dance! For all fans and friends of more vocals: “Vogue” also comes in a version with a whispering French voice. Hot stuff all around here. Raise your fins: What a debut!
