Andy Martin - Colossus

Confusion presents his first 12 track album on their own Raserei imprint with an extended catalogue of club tools, breaks and three complementing remixes. “Crypto” sets the tone of the release with typical moving bleeps while the title track “Too Late” continues with highly effective drums and synth work. Getting deeper into the album, the sharp drums of “Escape” mark the impact of this collection and “Eleven” turns the vibe to far-reaching perspectives with a spaced-out pad. “Full Mess” completes the original work with mental closing emotions and another IDM-ish break version. Three highly effective remix rollers by LYRIC, Hedström & Pflug and Recursion complete the album.

Written and Produced by Confusion, Lyric, Hedström & Pflug, Recursion
Mastered by Rene Wise

Supported by Ben UFO, Batu, Marcel Dettmann, Luke Slater, Gigi FM, Dj Rolando, Jonas Kopp, The Advent, Nastia among others. 

Cuerpo de Obsidiana" represents the continuation of Andy Martin's debut album, "Antiguos Astronautas", delving deeper into the mesmerizing blend of techno influences and the abstract essence of Latin and Caribbean rhythms, viewed through a futuristic sci-fi lens. The EP draws inspiration from the historical significance of Obsidian, a prominent material in Pre-Columbian civilizations' artwork. The artwork itself presents a futuristic, minimalistic reinterpretation of Obsidian artistry in our contemporary world.

1.- Andy Martin - Badman Sound

For CoziMix 09 we welcome Prague based legend, patricccio! 
Born and raised in Monterrey, Mexico, where his interest in sound first sparked from his brother, who’s a great musician and film scorer. After moving to Prague in 2016, his interests deepened further, as the local music scene inspired him to learn how to DJ. At the same time he became involved in other related fields, working as a lighting designer for Kave in 2020, and he continues to create light installations for here and there. He tends to dive into tribal and trippy genres, often full of bassy, deep, and percussive sounds. But always with unexpected twists. 
Here he has created a mix for us to dive into a day before him & Cozi boss softi take on Ankali & Planet Za. If you're about Prague make sure to check it out :)

Interview below....


1. How and why did you get into producing / dj’ing?


12 years ago a friend of mine was getting rid of this tiny pioneer controller and he ended up giving it to me. Wasn’t very consistent until around 2018-2019. The scene in Prague provoked in me an endless desire and curiosity to dive into this world. 


2. Who, What/where was your most coziest gig you've been to or experienced and why?


Those endless Claudio PRC’s residency nights at Ankali (2017-2018) with incredible guests such as Jane Fitz and Wrong Assessment. Sounds I never heard before. But most recently a night that I will never forget is Amphibian x Deviant party. With sounds I never experienced in the club before… local artist Atch22 blew my mind plus the headliners Amor Satyr and Siu Mata. Hypnotizing in a different way.


3. Do you consider yourself an introvert or extrovert in the industry?


Definitely an extrovert, very outgoing. Of course, like everyone, I need space and time for myself. I deal with a lot of people since I mainly work at the bar in the club (Ankali, Prague). 

4. If you had to choose 1 track to vibe out too forever, what would it be?


There’s so so many. I will choose two:


In Limbo - Jay Duncan 

Angry Gods - Sun Genam 



5. What is your routine when preparing for a gig / production/writing session? Do you have any special remedies/ mental/physical prep/ places to go to? :)

I put together playlists and listen to them constantly (every goddam day), add and get rid of stuff everyday. I filter it one last time before actually organizing it on rekordbox. Play the tracks for a bit, and I’m good to go.

Rethe - Soulspeaker [CALOSC009]

Andy Martin (@andy-martin) is one of my favourite musical discoveries from the last few years. A while back, after hearing an iconic tune he made called "Revolution" featuring Lee Scratch Perry, I was excited about his music, and also learning more about him as an artist. Andy is based in Guadalajara, Mexico, with Jamaican and Mexican roots.

Whilst I was touring Mexico, we shared a few gigs together, and all the locals referred to him as "the best in the country", which I can completely understand. Since discovering Andy's music I've been hooked on his productions, an incredible fuse of old school and new school dub techno, underpinned by influences from his heritage which flourish in the form of exciting percussion & unique, emotional melodies. 

On top of this, Andy is very humble, and  a very talented DJ, and I'm super happy to host him in the series. 

If you haven't heard his music, go check it out! So much to discover

Thanks again Andy <3

GiGi FM at Floresta - Waking Life '24

US-born and Berlin-based, Dustin Zahn has been a force in techno’s global underground for over two decades. His sound is punishing yet precise—big-room power shaped by hypnotic loops, sharp sound design often layered with haunting vocals and an unshakable sense of momentum.

With releases on Blueprint, Rekids, and his own imprints—Enemy Records and the American-rooted Abiotic Recordings— Zahn’s output is consistently high-caliber. Behind the decks, from Berghain to basements,  his work is a masterclass in high-impact techno that never sacrifices depth.

For Podcast #243, he delivers a 2.5-hour journey that doesn’t let up. No compromises. Just techno.

Marc Houleʼs ʻSlowpeʼ ends the EP with a slightly slower pace, but in a disconcerting way: taking it down a few notches this one that transports the listener to the strangest dimension yet. Filtered melodies start the trackʼs ascent, sounding like a trumpet thatʼs been bent out of shape and played from the void. With dark textures compactly knit into a condensed wall of sound, a low-slung bassline trades places with eerie chords and sparse percussion.

WetYourSelf! Recordings parting shot for 2012 comes in the form of a four track EP from bone-fide techno innovator Marc Houle and is entitled ‘Zorba’ EP.

Having left Richie Hawtin’s M_Nus in 2011 to refocus energies on his, Magda and Troy Pierce’s Items & Things imprint, Marc Houle has continued to impress fans of forward thinking techno, most recently with his Undercover LP project. Houle’s involvement with WetYourSelf!’s weekly club night goes back years while his superb remix for APP’s ‘All I Can Think About’ on WYS! Recordings 2011 meant he was a must have for a future release.

From the plucked bass tones of opener ‘Zorba’ to the fluttering reed synths of closer ‘Oo oo’, Italo and Cosmic disco is the dominating force on this rare foray outside of the Items & Things camp, and the results are infectious.

The unstable, detuned bass of ‘I Uh You’ create a woozy, drunken funk that fans of Houle’s material will lap up while the uninitiated will no doubt be taken by it’s weirdo charm, a trope that bleeds through the entire EP but really unleashes in third track ‘Rainysnake’, a masterpiece in loose, machine music.

Overall, ‘Zorba’ is the sound of Houle playing with his influences and playing with his machines and the result is a resolutely ‘fun’, unique and sometimes bizarre EP.
Marc Houle’s ‘Zorba’ EP is released on WSY! Recordings mid-December 2012.

Tracklist:
1. Zorba
2. I Uh You
3. Rainysnake 
4. Oo oo
