BAD LISTENER ONLINE 013 - Cass Ketchum, Her Boyfriend, Billy Winters B2B2B Set

We're back this week with an intimate home studio performance from Her Boyfriend! Over the last few months, Her Boyfriend has been spending time in between projects working on developing a DAW-less production setup based around the EP-133 KO II and SP-404. In this vibey lo-fi mix, he shares the fruits of his recent explorations, showcasing a diverse range of expertly curated hip-hop flavors and textures.

This week, we're thrilled to present a high-octane, DAW-less electronic set from OMO! Our first encounter with OMO was at our Paramita takeover in December, where his energetic dance moves, magnetic personality, and deep passion for music hardware and samplers immediately caught our attention. Utilizing his trusted SP-404 and Elektron grooveboxes, OMO creates experimental dance music that is thought-provoking, mystifying, and endlessly groovy.

We connected with OMO at Ziggy's in Ypsilanti for Gear Lords—a monthly, hardware-focused electronic music showcase he hosts alongside the 734-based promoter-organizer, Evan Oswald. In this recorded set, OMO delivers an energetic mix of electronic flavors, showcasing his eclectic ear for samples and his captivating performance skills.

BAD LISTENER ONLINE 027 - OMO (All original SP-404 MKII Techno & House Mix)

We're back this week with a vinyl kickback mix featuring BAD LISTENER DJs Adam DiPaolo, Billy Winters, Her Boyfriend & Swingvibe. Over the last few months, we've been locking in heavy with the vinyl DJ scene here in Michigan. We're super inspired by the vibrant community of selectors in Detroit & Ann Arbor who are committed to keeping vinyl alive and the amazing record shops and venues that bring them together. Shouts out to Threads, People's Records, Encore Records, Street Corner Music, Spot Lite, and Paramita Sound just to name a few! In this laidback vinyl mix, we're sharing some of our favorite recent finds and experimenting with a hybrid digital / vinyl equipment setup using Ableton. Have you ever seen anyone use Ableton as a vinyl DJ mixer? Let us know in the comments!

BAD LISTENER ONLINE 028 - Bad Listener DJs Vinyl Kickback Mix

We're back this week with a quiet storm mix of soulful selections from BAD LISTENER's own, @joonthemonsoon ! In this eclectic mix, Monsuun brings together original productions, smooth RnB, forward-thinking Hip-Hop and tracks from some of his favorite local collaborators.

BAD LISTENER ONLINE 029 - Monsuun (Soulful RnB, Hip-Hop & Electronic Mix)

We’re back this week with a smooth mix of timeless selections on wax from @goldsm ! Gold is a super talented DJ, producer and vinyl enthusiast with a warm, inviting personality and eclectic sense of style that perfectly matches the groovy funk, disco and soul records in his crate. We got tapped in with Gold at Paramita where he holds it down behind the bar slinging drinks and behind the turntables serving up vibes and locking in the grooves - usually doing both at the same time! In this all vinyl mix, Gold brings joyous energy and classic vibrations to the booth.

creative collective. Magnetic Rose first worked with Steph while planning our collaborative event
CYBERDELIA back in October 2024, alongside Bad Listener x Immaculate Conception Collective at Northern Lights Lounge. Known for crafting sonic experiences that will make your head spin and your body move, Steph wove together some of their favorite sounds of Detroit’s many beloved cultures throughout this genre-bending but techno-based mix.
