Radio On Vacation With Chida

Third Tuesday's on @internetpublicradio 
@apte is a record label, party series, and DJ duo based out of Seattle, WA.

~What is the inspiration and vision behind Apt E?

Apt E has always been driven by a freewheeling sense of artistic expression beyond outlets exclusive to music. A strong friendship in which we co-enabled each other’s off-kilter concepts and senses of humor catalyzed our growth through shared experiences in our community. Apt E was born as an outlet to share our visions, which manifest as conceptual pieces across sonic and environmental mediums.  

~Can you share a little bit about what you’ve included in this mix and your process?

Color, texture, inward observation, music that moves us and grounds us, favorites old and new taken from curious corners of our collection. 

It’s difficult for us to properly verbalize how these tracks come together or from where. We are constantly sharing music with one another and feeding off of each other’s energy. We both share a strong sense of what this mix is and where we wanted to take it but neither of us know how to put that down on paper. Our process is very organic and stems purely from our adoration for sounds musical and otherwise. 

~If resources weren’t an issue, what is your biggest dream for Apt E, if you could make anything happen?

Funding a full production (carbon neutral) vinyl plant locally would be a priority, plus a handful of loft/gallery/warehouse art spaces locked down in Seattle would help ensure the underground a future here. If our resources truly were not an issue, the entire world would be a space that shares the same strength in community, equality, and expression as we do in our dedicated underground spaces. Until then we’re starting small and taking it one step at a time. 

~Any exciting things coming up Apt E or as individuals?

The vinyl for our third output, Apt E Vol 3, has finally been delivered. Hear it Nov 1st at apte.bandcamp.com :)

Line and room recording from Apt E's closing set at The Lodge; a weekend-long retreat held annually, deep in the mountains of Central Washington. This recording picks up right where the OFF99 cats left off, beginning around 10:30am and wrapping up sometime past 4pm... Endless love to all the party people who kept it rolling into the afternoon. Truly the best party around, and an honor to close out Apt E style. See ya next time!

Few DJs could adequately represent the last three decades of New York
nightclub history - no less do so with such iconic credentials as Justin
Strauss. Since he was 17, when his first band was signed to Island Records, Justin has had a career that reads like a Who’s-Who of the music scene, spinning at nearly every dance club that you’d ever want to go to. 

Starting as DJ at New York’s legendary Mudd Club, he spun his way through The Ritz, Limelight, Area, Tunnel, M.K., Life, Centro Fly and more, pioneering his own distinctive sound, and becoming one of the most sought-after remixers and
producers not just in New York, but in the world. He has worked with the
gamut of artists - Depeche Mode, Hot Chip, Sergio Mendez, Tina Turner,
Jimmy Cliff, B-52s, Luther Vandross, 808 State, Malcolm McClaren, Skinny Puppy, Goldfrapp, LCD Soundsystem to name a few and on over 200 records!

Much of the new dance crowd that goes to hear Justin DJ today, doesn’t
necessarily know his history; they simply love his spinning because he
always keeps them dancing and surprised, seamlessly mixing between
choice classics, delectable rarities and innovative beats. For Justin, no genre or style is off-limits – he can and will mix anything, so long as he can keep the crowd enthralled. His self-proclaimed mission is “connecting the dots” between what might otherwise seem disparate musical periods and styles, while introducing exciting new sounds. He does so with infectious passion, subverting preconceptions about what’s old and new, and inspiring young DJs with his masterful skill and ever-youthful spirit.

But Justin Strauss doesn’t stop there. As half of the production duos,
Whatever/Whatever and A/JUS/TED, he continued to produce and mix
records, working on remixes for the likes of Hot Chip, William Onyeabor,LCD Soundsystem, Blood Orange, Holy Ghost!, Franz Ferdinand, Beyonce. Working on new projects Extra Credit with Joe Goddard of Hot Chip & Marcus Marr, and with Max Pask under their Each Other moniker, whose debut E.P.’s
were mixed by Soulwax and released on their Deewee label, with new

releases coming soon. Touring the world Dj’ing at Panorama Bar in Berlin, Robert Johnson in Frankfurt, Zunkunft in Zurich to name a few. In fact, he doesn’t stop at all.
