“I like a sound that is always alive and moving. So if I use a sample, it’s already static. And I live in a very liquid world — I don’t always live in this world, it’s my Buchla world.”

Really interesting interview, so many important things to say about sound and electronic music, art and the practicalities of performance. Thank you so much.

Love the bells in the background; adds a lovely touch of 'real' to the whole thing whereas so many other podcasts can be so formal and sterile.  Please keep up the magic.

Interesting that at the beginning of the interview she scoffs at the idea of "synthesizing real sounds" and then later goes on to proudly describe how she had a whole album full of synthesized wave sounds in lieu of field recordings. Hmmm.

Interesting interview. Thanks a lot for posting it!

Nathan Melja joins our series this week with 65 minutes of effortlessly cool house and techno full of unadulterated movers and shakers, recorded, he says, with a sunrise boat party session in-mind. We can picture the scene perfectly...

Off the back of his hotly-tipped Kalahari Oyster Cult release from 2020, Nathan Melja's latest project is a collaborative EP entitled ‘Wonderland’ featuring Flørist and the debut release on his newly-launched Parodia imprint.

We are blessed to welcome our first artist to our new Podcast series. We say welcome dear XDB and thanks for contributing this beautiful vinyl only mix!

XDB is Kosta Athanassiadis – German by birth and in residence, with Greek parentage. His roots are in the central German town of Göttingen. It was here that he began DJing in the early nineties; where he worked in a record shop; where he ran a radio show for five years; and the base from which he established the Metrolux record label in 2006. 

For many people, it was at this point that XDB appeared on their radar.  He has no shortage of technical skill but it’s his selection that truly shines – putting the music itself at the forefront, letting songs breathe when need be, and delivering plenty of head-scratching ‘what the hell is this track?’ moments. It’s on this that Kosta has built his reputation. 

When it comes to producing, Kosta favours a slow and steady work rate, opting to focus on quality control rather than record shop ubiquity. His DJing keeps him in the public eye, but one gets the sense that XDB prefers to operate in the shadows. There’s a refreshing lack of gimmickry to his approach – keeping it low-key allows him to be judged solely on the basis of talent. Arguably, it’s an innate quality – the way he wants to play it; the way that brings him most satisfaction, but it’s helped establish his reputation as an artist of considerable merit, winning the approval his audience and peers, alike.

The second episode of AIR features synth music icon Suzanne Ciani to talk about humanizing machines and the nature of synthetic sound. Please note that this episode was recorded live at Terraforma Festival, so you'll hear a signifcant amount of background noise and music throughout the interview.  


@SuzanneCiani is a pianist, composer, and Buchla pioneer, helping to introduce one of electronic music's earliest forms in the 1970s alongside Don Buchla himself. She is known not only for her sound design work for commercial brands, but for her incredible music on labels like Atlantic, RCA, and her own Seventh Wave Records.

AIR 002 / Suzanne Ciani

Hardly a newcomer, Amsterdam-based producer and DJ, @eversines, has been working on the scene’s periphery for more than a decade. As a co-organiser of Dutch label @delichting, he has truly immersed himself within music, garnering his own sound with a kinetic verve and dream-like quality.
In 2019, the artist saw his first debut release with @wexrecords, followed by a solo EP and an LP in collaboration with theremin player, @carolinaeyck, on @ye_yeh. More recently, he has teamed up with @kalaharioystercult to deliver ‘Plooi’.

In true Eversines form, Patterns of Perception 73 is a diverse compilation, comprised solely of the artist’s own music. Weaving his house-leaning productions with lucid, down-tempo beats, this mix conjures a longing for those beloved after hour moments, which for now, are safely guarded by our memories.

Patterns of Perception 73 - Eversines

AIR is an interview podcast series with a different theme each episode. 

Created in 2017, AIR aims to be something different in the wide world of music journalism. Tired of the usual promotional fluff, host Emma Robertson invites artists, DJs, and musicians to get deep on one topic that inspires them — everything from nature, to film, to spirituality — in the hope that it inspires you, too.
