One couldn't hope for a better start - and this year will be full of surprises from them. Right now after releasing some of their own remixes, they're about to drop EP's on the well known labels of the scene, as well as a vinyl on Orestt's label Evrlst. They play some of their favorites in this mix for Serial Experiments.

Seven Davis Jr - 'Be A Man' feat. Flako

Solid Steel in association with Serato (25th September) Our guest in Hour 1 needs little introduction, having documented DJ culture for many years through his writing and DJ History website, as well as being a well respected DJ. When asked for a few words, he wrote;

Never forget that DJing is entertainment. As much as us nerds and geeks love digging for new and oddball music, you’ve still got to entertain the crowd in front of you. Which, in this case happens to be you. Hello. How are you? 

Really? 
Me too. 

The advantage of entertaining you rather than a dancefloor is that I can afford to go off the chosen path occasionally and take a few diversions (it’s not that often, for example, you get the chance to play Yoko Ono without the threat of physical violence hovering somewhere in the foreground). Even so, it’s important – to me, at least – to offer something that dips its toes in between the dancing part of the job and the entertaining (pull up a chair, crack open the Diazepam). 

As in my most of my club sets, I try and balance between the brand new, new-to-me and ones pulled out of the festering mess where my records reside and combine them into a delightful musical soufflé. If you’re counting the calories, best wait a while before dipping into this. 

I’ve spent a decent chunk of this year compiling a series called Sources for Harmless (30 CDs in total… Phew), it’s brought a few old favourites up to the surface to get some air, so Clandestine’s ‘Radio Rhythms’ on Sleeping Bag is on here; arguably the nearest hip hop ever got to country & western. The opener is by Aax Donnell and Eric Malone and is one of those ridiculous and brilliant Italian records that I have a weakness for. Aax Donnell was also in Traks, who cut some great stuff in the early 80s. The Jill Scott song ‘Gimme’, I’ve been playing since it came out over ten years ago and never got bored of playing. There’s a whole raft of new stuff, some of which I got in the past week, some I’ve been playing over the summer. 

There are a few things on here you might not know, but equally there’s Fatima Yamaha, my favourite tune of the summer of 2015 (and yes, I’m aware it originally came out in 2004), to even things out and since there’s a new Prince album, a bit of that too (buy it, it’s surprisingly good).

Letherette - 'Brown Lounge Vol.3'

Party music: Musashi’s rich and warm vocal cuts through the Moog inspired riff that starts out smooth then gets quirky in moments... Minimal New Jersey’esque drums n’ sub drive the groove. The fun that was had producing this song is palatable n’ makes for an easy one to get into.

Solid Steel in association with Serato (12th February) It's a return for Markey Funk to Solid Steel with the Jerusalem based music producer and vinyl collector celebrating the release of his second album "Instinct: A Study on Tension, Fear and Anxiety" with a mix of music that defined its sound palette. The journey takes its route from classic Giallo soundtracks by maestro Morricone, Bruno Nicolai and Goblin, to early electronics by John Baker and Aminadav Aloni, to mind-bending psychedelia of Phluph and Czechoslovakian C&K Vocal, to today's cinematic grooves by Calibro 35, The Kramford Look and exclusive material by Markey himself.

"Instinct" is available worldwide via Audio Montage/Kudos Distribution. More music from Markey can be found here: www.markeyfunk.com

VOX LOW - UNDER GOOD WINE'S INFLUENCE MUSICAL JOURNEY

Whether it’s chugging cold wave, slow-mo electro or warped neo-trance, the music Manfredas writes and spins maintains a wild off-kilter charm that makes him one of the most exciting DJ/producers on the planet right now.

After playing on the radio circuit in Lithuania since he was just 13 years old, his name was launched to the world through the release of 'Pink Industry' on Ivan Smagghe and Leon Oakey's prolific Les Disques De La Mort imprint in 2016. The EP introduced his unique brand of freaky psychedelia that borrows the best of new wave, leftfield disco, synth-pop, krautrock and more and molds them into motorik dancefloor gold.

With a collection of artists from his home city of Vilnius, Manfredas also runs the Smala parties at Opium Club, which celebrates its fifth birthday at the Garzen Festival at the end of January with Red Axes, Abrão (live), local heroes 12 Inčų Po Žeme and more. The club - cited by numerous discerning selectors as one of their favorite places to play on the planet - is also where Manfredas spins many of his famed marathon sets, which have led to him being referred to as the 'people's champion' in his home town.

Listen to Manfredas’ Recognise 02 mix above and check out the full interview on DJMag.com.

Recognise: Manfredas

One of the year's most exciting DJs joined us at the airy East London space run by the team behind Brilliant Corners.

As part of our monthly RA Live series, Gou took the opportunity to play some records she doesn't usually get to spin in clubs, weaving together a selection of hip-hop, disco and slow-mo jams, from The Roots and Slum Village to Clout and Patrick Cowley.

FF004 | Magic Soul Orchestra | Ultra Lights | Out 08.10.2018

1 Behind the Plexi
2 Tonite Is the Nite
3 Motionless
4 The Head
5 Ultra Lights
6 Sugar Jungle
7 How Much Are We?

This album was one of many unfinished, unreleased or simply forgotten projects that we discovered, while having a look in Alex Krugers’ archives. We found various folders full of work in progress as well as ‘almost finished’ space disco and easy listening material of Alex teaming up with his old buddy Per Fourier, known to some from Alex's earlier work as Dub Taylor.

These recordings were made during summer 2004 and spring 2005 in Berlin, most of the work never saw the light or better, the ear in the end. There was simply not enough time to finish it and Per had to leave Berlin for work at some point. However, two out of these seven songs have been released. There was a small amount of a 12” called MSO ’Jam 2006 Ep’ out on Komfort Music, which included early versions of ‘Motionless’ and ‘The Head’ the same year the Ep title suggests.

On the vocal side ‘Behind The Plexi’, ’Tonite Is The Nite’, ‘Motionless’ and ‘Ultra Lights’ are a wild melange of both Alex and Pers musical history, including early 80s Space Disco and New Wave, Vocal Pop and Synth Pop, all in classic extended, night club friendly arrangements while ’Sugar Jungle’ has more of a 70’s-Disco-Appeal, a soulful and very stripped down Lonnie Liston Smith married to…say, a very stomping Gene Page. Per played the Bass Guitars and did the Singing while Alex was dealing with Guitars, Vocoders, Drums, Samples and Synths. The other two are Instrumental works, ‘How Much Are We?’ would be best described as a spooky late 80s-influenced Dub Version of a forgotten Disco song with a quarter shot of (without wanting to compare) Czukay, Wobble & Liebezeit. It’s pretty cool & minimal too. The only ‘downbeat’ tune, ’The Head’ introduces a different shade, highlighting on how much fun Alex and Per had in the studio bending the samples that led to this result.
 
As mentioned, when we discovered these songs in the depths of an old hard drive some were not yet finished and the overall sound quality was far from being perfect, these were just recordings with half-baked arrangements. We decided to let Alex’s long time compagnon Jan Gabler look over the original parts, finish what’s to be finished, delete what’s to be deleted and add what needs to be added to make these as best sounding and best arranged as he could without changing the initial idea and flow of the work.
 
The result, we feel is surprisingly timeless and beautiful and we hope you like it as much as we do. Mastered by Salz Mastering.  Photography by Christophe Mauberqué - www.christophemauberque.com

Magic Soul Orchestra | The Head (Preview)

The age of love - the age of love

Up next is a producer and disc jockey who has been on the radar for quite some time, a familiar face who has released a sprawling array of music on some of our favourite labels across the last ten years. His music has appeared on the likes of Gomma, Höga Nord Rekords, Les Disques De La Mort and his own La Belle label, of which he is a founding member. 

We are talking about Golden Bug, a producer who has worked tirelessly and released an innovative collection of music which draws influence from krautrock, house, techno, electronica and new wave. His style is varied and unique, channelling a punk esque aesthetic in a powerful, forward thinking manner. This is also prevalent when he dj's, as you are about to find out. Not one to stand still or play to the confines of genre - his sets are far reaching and eclectic.

Dancers get ready. 

This one was taken straight from the Renate booth, it brings the heat.

Golden Bug: The Ransom Note Mix

Atlantis / Saints marks the return of Atomnation boss @applescal. The two-track EP harkens back to a sound early Applescal fans might be familiar with. This time, however, the sound has evolved beyond its electronica beginnings and it's club centered sound that came hereafter.

For this episode of Sascha's 'Das Zen' series he has teamed up with the other man of the moment 'Herr Wandt' or Niklas as we have endearingly gotten to know him. 

Expect the usual awesome musical selections with plenty of curve-balls, left-side-spinners, kraut-back machine jams and a big dose of zen-not-zen sonic mayhem.

Kotelett & Zadak have been spreading their cheeky take on House for some while now, maintaining their outlandish fishing-related back-story over the standard/boring DJ duo biography. Although keen to bring a sense of fun to electronic music, their music is anything but flippant. 

'Never Enough' is the new release on Poker Flat Recordings, showcases the duo’s production chops. Slowly building from an atmospheric start, a thick, tight groove shines through, augmented by beautifully crafted percussive and melodic patterns. 

It feels like the perfect record for summer sunsets or sunrises, and is sure to win over dancefloors everywhere.
