Juanita's Mix 100 with Ciel @ciel_dj

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. a music maker with too much sincerity and a passion for sampling, film, and leftist politics

Q. What drew you to the music scene in the beginning and where do you hope to see it in the future?
A. Looking back at my life, I think everything from my birth led me on this path towards music. It was my first love. But as an only child, my experience with music growing up was always very solitary. I yearned to be part of a community radio station with Iikeminded music nerds, and it was working for a radio station eventually during my undergraduate that brought me toward DJing and rave culture. Back then I never thought I could do this full time, but once I got the chance to make a living doing this, I realized the scene was far from perfect, in fact it's very exploitative. I hope in the future we can find a way to fairly compensate music makers for the incredible gift of music they bestow upon the world, without becoming beholden to corrupt corporate & military interests. Artists can be hyper individualistic and self-interested, and I hope we can get better at looking out for each other instead of just our own paycheques.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I wanted to present a different side of myself to international audiences on such a wonderful mix platform. Perhaps people outside of my home city of Toronto are less familiar with my downtempo sets, but it's been a significant part of my wheelhouse for years, and have gained even wider affection from me since I started doing a downtempo party in Toronto last year. Like I always say, 80-100bpm is the most natural tempo for extended human body movements. I also liked the idea of doing a mix that doesn't build in a predictable way, instead it waxes and wanes like the natural rhythm of life. So many of my favourite mixes build and release tension in a way that's very satisfying to listen to, the sounds intensify to a frenzy before disintegrating into nothingness. I wanted to play with that rise and fall and mix downtempo and dub with double time d&b in a non-linear way that is evocative of our most precious memories and tells stories we've only seen in dreams. Downtempo and dub also seemed like the perfect genres to play in the 100th mix for Juanita's, and in the lead up to my fav April holiday. :) I hope the listeners enjoy it.

Juanita's Mix 100: Ciel

Simon Aussel is known for a particularly wild DJing style and leftfield bassy bangers, and it's his curious and playful approach to clubland that's won him loyal fans over the years. Whether photographing drink tokens from gigs or creating an 8-bit version of his debut album on a Game Boy cartridge, he seems to approach every endeavour with childlike joy and wonder—rare qualities in an industry that can leave so many jaded.

The Nantes-born, Paris-based artist's love of club culture, digging and world-building has set him on a blazing path in club music. He's released an exceptionally wide range of music, including a Memphis rap tape for Trilogy Tapes, dubstep-trap-jazz hybrids with Egyptian singer Abdullah Miniawy and deadly hard drum for Livity Sound. His mixes, meanwhile, are fast becoming DJ lore thanks to his knack for connecting seemingly opposed genres like new wave and fast techno. Look no further than his now-infamous Dekmantel Selectors set from 2021 or a marathon back-to-back with Skee Mask in 2022. 

As the French DJ gets more comfortable with story-telling, he's getting more personal and focusing on deeper, slower sounds. That's evident on this RA Podcast—six months in the works—which incorporates woozy downtempo, weighty dub and bleepy beats. Of course, in the chaotic middle section there's plenty of huge basslines, plus old-school electro, acidic techno and even a bouncy edit of the Montell Jordan classic "This Is How We Do It." Showcasing his quirks, influences and growth, this is Simo Cell in prime time.

CCL b2b DJ Voices - Live from Dimensions 23' (MARICAS Takeover)

Munich meets Miami in a B2B that's a dream come true. A perfect brew of DnB, hip hop, techno, ambient, and bouncy mesh brings together two of the scene's most innovative forces. Skee Mask, the master of acoustic manipulation and dark atmospheric textures, teams up with childhood friends duo INVT, with their hypnotic, trippy Latin-scented audioscapes and intricate drum programming. An immaculate blend of INVT's gritty rhythms and Skee Mask's otherworldly sonic engineering.

It’s Silverstone weekend baby! A race that we absolutely couldn’t miss in our calendar. 🏁

Things are getting real juicy with Lando Norris and Max Verstappen continuing to go head-to-head for the top spot. It’s nice to see Max finally feeling the pressure again but it’s looking like a friendship may be heading down the drain as his signature bullish race behaviour is back with Lando as his target which left us screaming at the TV (or at the track like Patricia was) last weekend. This is not helped by the media stirring the pot during the post-race interviews - are they hired by Drive To Survive? Let’s see if this friendship lasts the season. Due to this rivalry, George Russell ended up in the winning seat at Austria and we finally got to see a happy Toto Wolff. Estie Bestie is continuing his chaotic ways - may be worse now he doesn’t have a seat for next year - things are not looking good. Charles Leclerc is back in the stress zone. Lewis Hamilton finally got his first podium of the season at Barcelona. Ollie Bearman has just been confirmed for a F1 seat next year at Haas - we’re very excited to have some fresh faces on the grid. Let’s hope the car holds out for him. Carlos Sainz is straight chilling with no rush to announce his plans for 2025. 

Taking the wheel for the Silverstone race we have Glasgow-based DJ, producer and Redstone Press label founder Lewis Lowe. Looking to the past, Lewis sets his sights on the 1999/2000 season, his favourite era of F1 when Ferrari went from not winning a championship to dominating the sport via Schumacher. The mix is filled with the raw energy that season had to offer. 

The home of British motorsport, Silverstone hosted the first World Championship race since 1950 and has since staged the British Grand Prix more than 50 times. It’s one of only four Grand Prix from the first year of the World Championship to remain a part of today’s F1 calendar (the others being Monaco, Spa and Monza). Lewis Hamilton currently holds the most pole positions (7) and most wins (8) - in 2020 Lewis won the race with only three fully inflated tyres. There is yet to be a British Grand Prix at Silverstone in which all of the top three on the grid finish the race in the same order as they started. And some of the most iconic images in F1 were produced at the conclusion of the 1991 British Grand Prix. Ayrton Senna had run out of fuel at the end of the race and was stranded on the circuit as a result. Race winner Nigel Mansell stopped for the Brazilian and gave him a lift back to the pits on the side of his Williams car.
