This week's mix is 2 hours of heaters from one of Scotland’s finest labels and DJ duos, Craigie Knowes ☄️

It’s a real pleasure to have the lads as part of the series ahead of their much anticipated stage take-over at Dimensions this summer.

Q. Hey Hannah, what inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time/place in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. Hey Myles! Thank you so much for having me on, I’m over the moon to be a part of the series. This mix is a bit of an ode to my favourite time and place to DJ — sunset at a festival or doof in the bush. When the day turns to night is such a special time, especially in these settings, and I really wanted to try and emulate that feeling — starting out soft and building into something a bit euphoric.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart, or new or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment?

A. Yes actually! One that comes to mind is Dario - Sweet Love (Evolution Mix). I found it a few years ago and was obsessed with it but the record was so expensive on Discogs (currently $200!) and I couldn’t find it anywhere else so I kinda gave up on it. When you asked me to do this mix I decided to have another look for it and ended up being able to trade someone for a rip of the vinyl. So happy to finally play it!! Another special one is Kalle-M - This Place. My partner David actually found this and sent it to me a while ago and I love it so much, so shout out to Dave for that one :) and a final special mention for Blue Noise - Coldflow which is close to the end. It gives me goosebumps every time, so intensely emotional and I would be crying if I heard this on a dancefloor!

Q. I know you’ve had quite the busy year on the events front, hosting a number of different parties with great local and international DJs as part of the Luna Blessings and Send/Return collectives. What were some of your favourite moments from the year that was, and what projects are you looking forward to working on in 2024?

A. Thank you! It’s been a crazy year looking back and I’m so grateful to be a part of so many special parties. A moment that stands out was the Waxo Paradiso x Hope Street Radio party the other week, the vibes were so perfect all day. This year I’ve actually played quite a lot of b2b sets which has been so fun, and I’ve had the chance to play interstate a couple of times and in Europe which was amazing :) We’ve got a super stacked year ahead with both Luna Blessings and Send/Return which I can’t wait for! We’re hosting one of my favourite artists ever for Luna in January which we’ll announce very soon. I’m looking forward to more of all of the above in 2024!

NDYUKA PODCAST #16

AWASA APINTIE

Awasa is a cultural marron dance where the people are deeply connecting on the dancefloor led by the drum rhythms created on the Apintie drum.
The rhythms are driven by pace and connecting the dancers with shake instruments on their ankles to dance gracefully and with power. 

NDYUKA podcast will always be rhythmic and cultural inspired. With this mix here i emphasized the power of the low-end rhythms alongside mysteriousness and some deeper sections to switch up moods but never lose energy.

Jaeger Mix #127
January 27th, 2019

Bendik Baksaas is back at Jæger, and this time he is in the booth. Following the release of he and Fredrik Høyer’s multimedia collaborative LP, “Ode til alt Ute” Bendik Baksaas came to Jæger to join Ivaylo for his weekly Jæger mix last Sunday.

Bendik moves effortlessly from the stage to the booth crystallizing his production work in the context of this mix. He is a versatile artist,  constantly working on new music and exciting new projects; skills and pursuits that easily transfer between genres styles and even disciplines.

He approaches his Jæger mix with the sonic aesthetic, coaxed from original material that he and Joar Renolen have been cultivating together recently. Minimalists arrangements anchored by the resolute march of 4-4 kicks loop into infinity like something transferred from the philosophy of Steve Reich to the dance floor.

There’s a transcendental quality to the Baksaas mix that soars to unfathomable heights as the listener gets swept up in the repetitive waves of his sonic assemblage. Cutting pieces down to the their essential elements and combining them in sinuous threads across different textures, he creates a stark electronic landscape through his mix. 

His Jæger mix wavers little from its sonic aesthetic, with a DJ mix coming together as its own artistic expression rather than just a selection of songs. Bendik Baksaas exemplifies the DJ as artist through this mix and there is a very prominent connection between his set and the music he makes today, across his various musical projects.

The last time we featured Bendik Baksaas on this blog we talked at length about his work as an artist, but on this occasion we frame our questions from the perspective of the DJ.
