Influences:
producers who use their DAW to spawn and grow inconceivable organisms, or build and sculpt vast architectures. artists whose music helps you engage with your body with pure openness. artists who make music to excavate things out of themselves. artists who write music that reflects their world (inside or outside) at you. music that carries memories and sensations with me that would be otherwise lost. working musicians who break the borders between practices, cultures, and industries. people who invent new genres by djing, throwing parties, and starting labels. djs who understand how rhythm affects the body. djs who throw away established definitions about music and come up with their own. ravers who throw away their pretensions, exercise care and show love to their peers, and put unbridled energy into the music.

Favorite Quote:
a wise man carrying a comically oversized mug once told me, "this community will give you everything, but eventually you have to give it all back."

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:
take the time to think about what you really want to do with your work, and pursue it unapologetically. but as you get more and more from the community, think about what you're doing to pay it back by supporting and uplifting others. try to learn when to make sacrifices in your commitments/presence in the community for your artmaking, homemaking, and personal wellness. try to learn when to do the opposite. show up for your friends and the people who inspire you. it's never the wrong time to take a beat, consider how you're taking up space, and consider the effect you have/could have on the people around you. if you don't get booked too often, always show up early and stay late when you do. whatever you do, hold yourself accountable to push your craft as far as you possibly can - all of us doing that is what keeps the community alive.

With this mix sobolik asks to please learn more about and consider donating to: 
trans people are under an unprecedented attack in the US national/state legislatures. help orgs fighting this legislation in your state, and help orgs that work to help trans people survive and thrive amid a deeply violent social and political reality.

Akanbi says Yes.

He might hail from France but @simocell has always worn his love for UK music on his sleeve. It is no wonder then that his intricate broken beats, bass heavy grooves and halftime techno has come on vital labels like Livity Sound and The Trilogy Tapes. He is a frequent collaborator too, with everyone from Peter van Hoesen to Hodge, but his own signature sound design always stands out. The TEMƎT Music head's Selectors set from 2021 remains one of the most impressive multi-genre showcases we have heard and this week the Paris-based DJ repeats that trick once more. 

Over the course of 100 minutes, Simo Cell goes deep into everything he has always been about: heavy rhythms designed to move the body, heady synth designs that are intricate yet powerful, and a masterful control of energy and flow which means he can lock in a dance floor whether firing out high-speed juke or teasing with slow and supple dub. It's a whirlwind ride that will awaken every fibre of your being.

Due to an artist cancellation, Italian-Ivorian producer and DJ and Nervous Horizon associate Ehua was added at the very last minute to the Unsound 2022 lineup – but she did not disappoint! Ehua played in the early hours of the morning at an Unsound club night, and now you can relive her set, an emotionally-charged dark slow-fast jam with blissful melodic bursts.

Sobolik, a Brooklyn-based producer, DJ, promoter and label curator is up next for Tapes #98. Co-heading the London label All Centre alongside Simkin and DJ Pitch, Sobolik has been turning heads over the past two years with futuristic club cuts on labels such as 3024, CloudCore, Woozy, and early reflex. Sobolik's world is filled with colour and hyperkinetic energy - not fitting in one box, their output reacts to a broad palette of styles across North American and UK club music traditions. 

In February, they released their third EP, entitled Packet Loss, in a debut collaboration with Kindergarten Records, joining modern bass scene luminaries like Ayesha, Sha Ru, and Stolen Velour at Brooklyn’s preeminent home of chaotic, forward-thinking digital percussion tracks.

Origins Tapes 098 - Sobolik

Piezo demolishes the next OK submission with a futuristic mirage of experimental techno ft. surges of warped textures and skewed timeframes.

Mirroring his quintessentially Off-Kilter productions, this mix ruptures twisted audio narratives, shredding them to bare bones and stitching them back together again - it's unpredictably adventurous and charged with raw recoveries. 

//

Scaling the liminal nexus of UK club futurism with tempoless inhibitions and adventurous textures in sound, Piezo explores the kinetic infinites of dance music’s vast permutations. 

Luca Mucci's output as Piezo revels in the hi-def synthetics of sound sculpting, pirouetting through off-kilter frameworks of total dance crud in a remarkable multiplicity of psychedelic variations. 

 Cast from the embers of dubstep’s heyday experienced from his native home of Milan, he temporary relocated to Bristol enjoying an immersive spell in the city’s legendary sound system culture and vibrant alternative music community. Releases on British labels Idle Hands, Swamp81 and Facta & K-Lone's Wisdom Teeth followed, plus a turn for Orson's Version imprint based out of Berlin. 

 Ansia was founded by Piezo in the midst of this, a label acting as his creative appendage for wild dancefloor tools by himself and fellow club deviants characterised by a mischievous attitude and wry humour to both composition and sound design. It is currently 6 releases deep, featuring a mix of various artist compilations and solo turns from Luca himself, including his latest EP ‘Odd Hooks’. 

2020 saw the release of Piezo’s debut album ‘Perdu’, his most substantial work to date, on cult Milanese label Hundebiss run by PAN affiliate STILL, while he also collaborated with artist duo Invernomuto on their BlackMed multimedia project. That same year saw Luca become a participant in the SHAPE roster, a Creative Europe-supported platform for innovative music and audiovisual art. 

 Piezo weighs all of these influences and experiences together with a ferocious appetite for perc-y wrigglers in his celebrated DJ sets and mixes. Applying his limitless ideology to open ended dancefloor narratives, he traverses quite wild bpms and styles with a remarkable flair best exemplified in sets at Terraforma Festival and mixes for Dimensions, Animalia and Crack Magazine. 

 Luca plans another solo EP for later in 2023, plus several remixes and V/A contributions along the way to continue a prolific release schedule.
