The fast paced, hypnotic, layered, and relatively modern techno set you hear in this recording was played for the closing of the first edition of Skin at Club Atelier Amsterdam on 27/03/2022

Skin is a fresh new organisation that seeks to widen the scope of sounds during a club experience, instead of zooming in on a niche.

////About this set / long read / nerd talk////
//////////////////////////////////////////////

I wanted to do something different for this night, so I experimented with a new approach to my preparation, organising playlists with tracks by what kind of sound design and moods they contain, and putting them within folders that indicated the general intensity in order to slowly ramp up the tension. This groundwork allowed me to prepare an arc for a deep set where I could make long layered mixes while maintaining the groove, speed and improvisation I consider to be recognizable features of when I DJ in a club.

Although this set also sustains a steady groove and flow, it is still a departure from my usual, more instinctive way of playing, where I tend to switch more impulsively between styles and themes, mixing tracks that have pronounced rhythmic elements with tracks that have very memorable basslines and hooks, especially from earlier decades, call it old school, 90s, 00s, retro or outdated if you want. I do this in order to keep a sense of playfulness and unpredictability going (fu n）with selections that have a distinct character.

This set was more about consistency, atmosphere and subtle transitions. The aim was to have the music slowly progress over the course of the set but without it becoming a static affair. This is why I completely avoid looping tracks, as I want their sounds to continuously evolve, and the phrasing in their structure to be continuously accentuated throughout the mix. 

It might not sound quite like what you would expect from a Comrade Winston DJ set, but I actually had a lot of fun constantly keeping two tracks in the mix while preparing for the third to take over, slowly stacking upon the current mood instead of rapidly switching between different ones. Prefering not to rely on the element of surprise but rather slowly reach a boiling point and to enjoy the ride.

Techno Set / Skin @ Club Atelier / 27/03/2022

Entre Ghetto Techno, Electro et Footwork, la DJ Swooh détient l'alliance parfaite pour faire frétiller l'ensemble de nos muscles et de nos synapses. L’artiste Swooh ne s’arrête pas seulement au mix puisqu'elle produit également des tracks et vient de lancer son label «  Purple Records ».
Pour ce 34ème podcast Tecnhopol Mix, Swooh s’est relevé le défi de nous proposer quelque chose d’unique en son genre ! La sélection des tracks sont, pour certains, plus minimalistes qu’à son habitude, avec beaucoup de drums, de percussions et de vocales.

Set the Mood with Deets!

Set the Mood is a concept-based mix-series focussing on opening-sets.

Deets is known for providing an easy-grooving, ego-dissolving yet grounding experience since she began DJ-ing as a coping mechanism during the lockdowns. She navigates genres like techno, bass, and house with finesse, always adjusting to the setting and mood to leave a lasting impact on the crowd.

Working like a 'painter of time and space' aiming to move both the human psyche and the body, she blends contrasting elements into one musical journey with her signature explosive yet polished style of layered mixing as her brush.

For Deets, a perfect opening set feels like an embrace upon entering the room, slowly transforming into an energizer. It offers a hint of what's to come, creating excitement for the rest of the event while allowing the audience to enjoy the current moment. If the set is a coherent yet surprising and easily flowing journey that fits well into the bigger picture of the night, she believes it can captivate the audience from the beginning and keep them dancing until their legs feel like cooked spaghetti. Her DJ-ing approach for opening sets is influenced by her preferences as a raver, reading the room, keeping the rest of the program in mind, and increasing the energy when the crowd is ready.

Listeners can expect to cruise through rich and refined soundscapes with fat basslines, infectious percussions and synths, plenty of uplifting vocal cuts, and a sprinkle of funk to liven up the ride: final destination undisclosed.
