Pure Space returns with our final release of 2022, delivered by none other than Zara - a warm light shining from Naarm (Melbourne, Australia).

Crafted in the midst of Australia’s last summer, these tracks capture the blissful and euphoric feeling of warm weather and the potential it brings…

Starting on an ambient note and progressing to drum & bass, the release seeks to take listeners on a transcendental journey to a freaky realm.

We start with Pirr, a track representative of dawn and the new beginnings it brings. It’s an eerie, yet anticipatory feeling lingers in the air as the rising sun diminishes the darkness and reveals the beauty of the landscape. Soft kicks coupled with bird song gently grasp the attention, effortlessly drawing you into the release.

Guitar and reverb drums define the second track, Idyll. Switching the mood to melancholia where the track meanders around floaty vocals creating a gentle fluidity throughout.

Entering the DnB realm, Quixotic combines driving hi-hats, wubs, bass to instigate movement. The floating female vocals carry you through the track guiding you on what feels like a utopian dream.

Synthesised drums are combined with heavy bass, arps and breaks to represent the peak of the journey. A chaotic, albeit warm track with and trippy moments in time.

As the sun sets once again, the arc of the journey ends on acid synths, arps, claps and hi hats on Elysium. Transporting the listener into a sleep, a moment of peace or back down to earth.

Kiki Raikkonen is joining us from Paris for our 134th podcast.

Co-founder of the fierce Paris-based collective Club Schumacher, Kiki Raikkonen is an eclectic pilot, constantly blending his different origins and influences.

Inspired by scenes such as the South of France free-parties, the Saigon alternative club scene or a more general love for bass music, his intention is to create a global energetic mood throughout his sets.

This special podcast is a mix of psychedelic trancy sounds, pumping tribe tekno and other delights leading to a more experimental final section including Vietnamese elements.

Enjoy!

@iamsurt's set recorded at OXI on Sunday, 17. December 2023

СИНТЕЗА ⊹ Surt ⊹ OXI

Artist: https://soundcloud.com/roma-zuckerman
Track: Like My News
Label: https://soundcloud.com/gost-zvuk-records
Format: 12" Vinyl, Digital, 2XLP
Date of release: 19/01/24
YouTube: https://youtu.be/3b-RdEkHwTE

The don of Siberian techno Roma Zuckerman made his debut double LP ‘Phenomenon of Provincial Mentality’ on Gost Zvuk with a much-anticipated showcase of his remarkably diverse language of sound, from quickfire DJ tools to off-kilter extrapolations with a full stylistic diversity in between.
Working through the archive, the label assembled a collection of hypnotic loops in the vein of early Robert Hood and click-and-cut experiments that recall the punk attitude of Berlin's Elektro Music Department, all the while with nods towards European minimal. The album opens with two subdued, speak-and-spell processed vocal jams before 'Text Regulator' brings things into overdrive with furious drum programming and wide-eyed glitch FX. Over to Side B things take a turn into something more melodic and relaxing, an almost BBC radiophonic workshop zone with synthetic underwater sounds bringing to mind Amadeo Tomassi's library soundtracks of the late 70s. Think of early sonic portrayals of deep space exploration or the ocean's vastness mixed with repetitive 909 stabs.

‘I Play Everyday’ strikes as one of the album's highlights, a prime example of Zuckerman’s fascination with creating loop-based grooves to get lost in. There’s a hint of Richard H. Kirk’s 90s IDM classic ‘Freezone’ in the timbre of the opening moments, but where Kirk goes into sample-heavy cross-cultural futurism, ‘I Play Everyday’ seems acutely concerned with subtle reductions. ‘Extra Work’ harnesses a kind of pounding warehouse gabber energy with what sounds like a collage of shortwave radio voices, whereas album closer ‘Companeros’ brings in snippets of traditional Spanish-style acoustic guitar, albeit layered in a concrete manner with bursts of electrical distortion. It makes for one of the LP’s most surprising moments, but all round ‘Phenomenon of Provincial Mentality’ shows an artist working with a vast variety of styles. A truly great body of work to kick off the year

"Dans ce podcast j'ai voulu me concentrer sur les sous-genres de la techno qui m'inspirent en ce moment.
Ça passe par des rythmes hypnotiques, de la techno plus old school, des vibes groovy et surtout beaucoup de sonorités percussives.
Tout ça se traduit par un mix très progressif et un condensé de toutes les énergies que j'aimerai retrouver au fil d'une soirée."
