Bassywax - One Last Dance [BSSW02]

Bassywax - One First Dance [BSSW02]

Vinyl only live recording from my dantz festival performance. Played before inspirarional souls Lena Willikens, DVS1 & Blawan, humbled to have been part of this!

For this special warmup I tried to explore some places apart from my usual hipnotic/deep techno narrative. My goal was to show local people there is a lot to discover within electronic music, knowing there was gonna be an intense long techno journey after my performance. Felt it was the ideal place to take some risks :)

Hope you enjoy!

Bassywax at Dantz Festival 2023

"I find myself immersed in an abstract and dark symphony. Certain passages are ritualistic, while others evoke a cinematic quality, like a listener on a train watching the music pass by. It's a blend of intangible and ethereal sensations where frequencies transform into dark matter, transporting you to sonic universes that challenge the boundaries of perception."

Bassywax (@bassywax) is the creative character and parallel reality from Asier Arias, a 29-year-old Donostia based dj and producer. Deep lover of sonic storytellings, intimate dancefloor gatherings, psychedelia and vinyl records, he is part of Nigma (@nigma-dss), a collective and party series focused on developing a local techno scene around Donostia, north of Spain. Big nerd on the studio, still on the process of self discovery and identity development in the realm of sound production.

Author note: As for this mix, left the dancefloor focus aside and tried getting weird while exploring different sonic places. Not much to say, let the music play and enjoy the trip.

@bassywax is the creative character and parallel reality from Asier Arias, a Donostia based dj and producer. Deep lover of sonic storytellings, intimate dancefloor gatherings, psychedelia and vinyl records, he is co-founder of Nigma (@nigma-dss), a collective and party series focused on developing a local techno scene around Donostia, north of Spain. 

Big nerd in the studio, Bassywax is also a fan of both psychedelia and analogue format in the production realm. His productions are characterized by a sound design focus with lots of details and layers to get lost. Evolving from promoter into label developer, 2024 is the year in which he develops @slippery-yard and Obtuse Swamp, two vinyl and digital labels focused on intimate psychedelic ecosystems, both more dancefloor focused or with an experimental direction, merging both curated aesthetics and music approach into an imaginary lysergic universe.

Every Year Donostia-San Sebastian holds its anual unfamous Jazz festival, Jazzaldia. In this year edition, @nigma.dss and @dabadabass organized a special club night inviting Eric Cloutier to visit the local scene. 
This is the live recording of Bassywax as warm up for him.

PREMIERE: Bassywax - Complex Inner World [EMAHO004]

Live vinyl/digital mix recording of an intimate musicnerd gathering from last summer somewhere in Avila. Reached that improvisational free flow state I love and does not always happen, so sharing the recording that the crew shared to us (legends!!)

Been working going deep into this impro approach now with both analog/digital for the last year and a half, a lot of organisation required but love not knowing exactly where I'm heading, even if the result is not as clinical. Its a mess getting the tracklist sorted out with records, if you curious about any track comment here, happy to share!

Big ups JR crew for the invitation, did not really know where I was going and I must say it felt really special place to express freely; listened to such unique sets in there. Thank you!!
