CARU X ANDWAHN - HAUNTER EP

"Drawing from the fictional worlds of sci-fi to mirror the real-time dystopia of the world around us, on Simulacra AndWahn conjures a project that is equally as deep, introspective, and thought-provoking as it is at home on the dancefloor; liberated from the concerns of it’s contextual themes. The dance equivalent of a doom scroll-fried brain cell, Simulacra embodies the need for both escapism and enlightenment all at once." (Laura McInnes for Mixmag AUNZ)

Simulacra

What happens when two beatmakers from opposite ends of Te Ika A Māui, armed with different creative processes, decide to make some tunes together? The ‘Joint Effort EP’ is a 3 track showcasing of an exciting collaboration between AndWahn (Tāmaki Makaurau), and Synthetic Children (Te Papaioea), finding its strength in the culmination of differing skillsets and workflows, and demonstrates a reciprocated admiration of craft. From DAW to drum-machine and back again, this is a conversation via warping basslines. Grooves switch up with dynamic genre fluidity, proudly showing the shared inspiration taken from various bass genres such as dubstep, grime, and jungle. Available exclusively on bandcamp, soundcloud, and nina protocol, this is one for the low-end lovers.


Synthetic Children is the solo moniker of Te Papaioea based artist Celina Goacher (either/eyether, Khaki Department, bitch whistle). Via hardware synths and drum machines she endeavors to create cathartic dancefloor experiences, navigating between murky, dissociative atmospheres with autotuned vulnerabilities, and gender-euphoric climaxes atop weighty grooves. Her recent output spans experiments with guitar textures, blast beats and emo on 2024’s ‘like a peeled orange sinks in water’, whilst the bubbling beats and hyperpop vocals of this year’s ‘Smooch EP’ showcase “Palmy’s premier snack pack herself” (Diesel Jenny) taking her love for dance music to its transgender-runglist niche. Big Fresh Collective also host Synny C’s blistering 160bpm ‘angel showed her’ on Footmahi ‘25. Alongside Diesel Jenny on the recent ‘Backroom Smooches Tour’ across Aotearoa, the two hit off some small-town virality in a Tūrangi community facebook group after taking their hardware electronic sets to the iconic shopfront of Sanjay’s Selections dairy, aka the most bass boosted soundsystem in the Waikato, in collaboration with Bankrupt Records, documented here - youtu.be/0e4hgnN1BLM?si=iWESYlSrrpFXC9Yu

RADIO VERCETTI 004 - ANDWAHN - 25 June 2024

Next up in the PDC mix series, this absolute belter of a set from man like Andwahn.

Taken live from Phys Ed, this one is sure to keep your ears stoked.

Keep it locked <3

PDC #009 - AndWahn (live at Phys Ed: Denham Audio x Mani Festo)

How U Feel transposes a fresh sprouting of highly strung self-worth into four melodically vivid and hard-hitting jungle tracks. Through surging synth lines, rolling bass grooves, RnB vocal sampling and chrome-plated breaks, this EP is an ode to the powers of hyper-romanticism and melancholic devotion, and inward & outward emotional availability as their guiding force.

The EP begins with “Warm Wash”, kicking off with a steady dub reggae-inspired bassline groove, breakbeat-piano euphoria and a classic vocal sample. “Sacrificial” continues the dub influence with flutters of echoed vocal harmonies and acidic, airy synthesis. The title track takes the mood into a darker territory with a slow burner of retro-futuristic synthesis, dancehall-based breakbeat riddims, and a piercing vocal hook. “B4DB1DNESS (Vocal Mix)” brings forth an anthemic amen breaks dub of Tinashe’s “None of My Business”, prompting both tears and elation in the peak time. Closing out the EP is a remix of “Sacrificial” by Kultiv, which switches up the original mix with wobbling basslines and nocturnal junglist ambience.
