Loot Radio 032: Mark Slee

Our guest on the show this month is Mark Slee. Intricate grooves, dreamy textures and a playful whimsical bounce is how his sound is often described. Over the course of an electronic music obsession more than 20 years strong, Mark Slee has evolved a deep musical style that reflects a unique personality, blending intuition and introspection with a methodical approach to production and curation.
  
His original productions and remixes have been released on labels such as Cityfox, Lost Diaries, Where The Heart Is and more. Keep a lookout, we’ll be featuring something from him later this year on Loot Recordings. His sound has earned him DJ sets in notable clubs such as Kater Blau and Sisyphos in Berlin and the infamous Robot Heart among many others.
  
Let’s turn up the volume and get lost in the music together. This is Mark Slee on Loot Radio. Here we go!

Henry Saiz Remixed: The Downtempo Experience (Continuous Mix)

A studio-head in the true sense of the word, YokoO’s last 20 years have seen him master house music in all its deepest forms. With a prolific and impressive discography, YokoO has made his mark on noteworthy labels to date with original releases and a back-catalogue of strong remixes.

He’s turned the heads of many a label boss from Kollektiv Turmstrasse, Matthew Dekay, Lee Burridge, and MANDY, as well as racked up plays from a broad spectrum of industry reference artists. YokoO’s music has proven time and time again it can reach the record bags of the DJing elite on every continent.

His most notable projects Pachamama and Euneirophrenia anticipated the evolution behind the January ’21 release of his EP Jivanmuktih on Crosstown Rebels’ offshoot Rebellion. 2021 marked for YokoO the rebirth into a significant new chapter of his career as a producer, with a matured musical intuition charged with seductive blends of eclectic, deep, minimal, and hypnotic house grooves.

Like a mantra vibrating beat by beat, his music abides only to his deepest meditative intuition and revolves around the creation of unbound free-flowing states of creativity, echoing in stillness a deep connection to nature where every subtle detail counts for rich artistic expression and depth.

“I am committed to the Truth.” With these words, YokoO explains how he draws inspiration from his Yoga practice and the Yamas as he channels his creative energy into his label SATYA, a project that signifies the maturing into a state of unbridled surrender to the craft. With SATYA, he intends to support and represent artists who embrace creativity as a non-compromising act devoid of any expectation.

His constant evolution as a human being plays hand in hand with the authenticity of his creative process, committed to releasing unpredictable sounds that never fail to communicate, connect, and move.

Between gigs, you’ll find YokoO producing in his home-built studio in Lisbon or saluting the sun somewhere in Mexico.

𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐄𝐑𝐄: Ancient Soul - Whispers of Her Plans [Tibetania Orient]

Project 563.

Experiencing the Playa at night is the quintessential Burning Man experience. The untamed energy, the chaos, the sensory overload, the cacophony of sounds coming at you from all angles, all mixed with the extreme weather conditions the desert throws at you - it is pure pandemonium in the best sense of the word. It made me feel small and insignificant - in a good way. As my ego faded I more and more felt at one with my surroundings, ready to love and contribute.  As I started playing the bus pulled out of the camp. A surreal scene that reminded me of the Pied Piper unfolded - hordes of burners following the iconic heart into the open desert. But where I had anticipated the Robot Heart set to be a big "me" - moment, it felt quite like the opposite - just adding my small voice to this large and beautiful orchestra that is Burning Man. And that is how pretty much my entire first Burning Man experience went. And it's exactly this what makes it the best place in the world.

Sahar Z - CRSSD Festival 2019 X When We Dip

Joe Miller is an English-born beatmonger, influenced in equal measure by heaving clubs, and the earthy melancholy of forests. 
He grew up in Australia, where he learned to craft sets that are whimsical and left-field, evoking a sense of place. In 2013 he delivered us one of the most exquisite mixes you will ever find, a beautiful pastiche of tracks new and old expertly weaved together. Since then Joe has released music on labels ranging from All Day I Dream (alongside Jamie Stevens) to Manual Music and much more. Make sure to watch out for his upcoming release on our own Dawn Till Dusk imprint. 
As expected, Joe’s mix is an adventurous 44 track narrative that will keep you hooked from start to finish.
