Noosa Sound System - Dub Techno TV Podcast Series #132 [2023]
DTTV Podcast Series [DTTVPS132]

At the outer reaches of Noosa National Park in Australia, there’s an abstract and unlikely pulse emanating under the guise of Noosa Sound System! ‘Just For the record, I’m not operating a sound system, in the Jamaican sense’ says Chris, the representative DJ / Producer behind the project. ‘Well not at the moment anyway’! For now, Noosa Sound System marks the return to production and selector duties for Chris after a 15 year hiatus, broken by the COVID lockdown. For the short term, it’s all about making records again he said, where it will go after that is anyone’s guess! As a former independent label boss, and ambient techno producer dating back to the 90s in the UK, Chris has found a welcome home in the dub techno community - loving to explore the scene’s deep and timeless sound that epitomises the underground, where he is making waves and new friends alike. With releases and remixes across stalwart labels such as Greyscale, Insectorama, Crossfade Sounds and Slope Point to date - and more to follow - you could say he’s going to be one to watch!

So...I take a deep breath now...because this is something so very special to me what I am able to introduce to you now...since a certain time a nice ongoing connection of music love has build to  Chris a.k.a. Noosa Soundsystem from Australia. And now he has built a set especially for MLD!! Can't believe that this is real now...he is such a talented producer and those who know about his releases find a very unique and deep sound in his tracks...also his fast developement is amazing and very inspiring for me...I'm curious about his process in future!
so here's  what Chris himself says about this special mix:
"Rather than opting to beat mix a dub techno set, I wanted to create something special for this guest mix - and in so doing - maybe share a deeper insight into the sonic aesthetic that informs the Noosa Sound System project. Taking a deep dive into my personal archives for this session, we navigate some pretty abstract long-form ambient territory in places. Whilst there is also some re workings of material from the Beyond the Sphere album that released last year on Greyscale. 
Normally some of these more experimental recordings might sit on the hard drive, as sample material or sound design references. However putting them together into a different narrative that wouldn't usually eventuate, has been a super interesting exercise leading to this exclusive set.
I hope you enjoy the session as much as I did, and if you listen carefully, you'll hear someone present during recording, loose it at one point as we start spinning a radio on the old 1200 Mk2. I left this in the final edit because it captures the fun to be had when we don't take our time in the studio too seriously! All that remains now is to express my thanks, much love and respect to Sai for the invite to MLD, and of course to you for listening - whoever you are - please don't be a stranger!

One love - Chris (Noosa Sound System)"

Noosa Sound System - Beshknowcast

I find it very interesting to observe the range of different productions that fly under the banner of Dubtechno these days...

And although I like many of these variations, from the more ambient and chord-focused interpretations to the dry, atonal and polyrhythmic percussively  focused productions, I've been getting a sense lately that something is a little wrong. By this I mean since a certain point there has been a development towards a generic sound and format that somehow seems very superficial bringing the same flat and trivial sounds thrown together and promoted as  "Dubtechno"  and to me, often it seems like fast food compared to the original models. There is even  talk of a new wave. Both the production and the way it is presented seem somehow cheap, random and arbitrary to me. Often it is difficult if not impossible to avoid being interwined with these developments if you are enthusiastic about the often amorphous genre that is now labeled Dubtechno. 

Don't get me wrong I am not saying that there is no place for this "new sound" but the more I reflect on my enthusiasm - from my first exposure to dub and its techno hybrids, through rhythm & sound and through sound system culture in the late 90s to my renewed immersion in recent years, I realize that I should use the terms Dub and Dubtechno more and more carefully - coming from a place of a certain respect and appreciation. Because often these genres, carry a lot of cultural heritage, standing for a level of quality in delivery that in reality is hard to develop, and often lost to the disposable imitation economy we are beginning to see more and more of, which only serves to dilute things to an accepted average.

To me a big slice of what is promoted as Dub or Dubtechno these days falls well short of these original benchmarks that were set a long time ago. 

Through many conversations about these topics, reflecting on different perspectives, a mix was created recently where two fellows, I can call my friends, and I combined 3 sequential sets of 7 tracks each, to rest with and pay a little respect to some of the more remote but still relatable facets of dub in different ways. It's completely natural for styles to evolve and mix. It's great  to see with how much creativity and depth some artists do this.  And that's what this mix should stand for. 
You can listen now to this wonderfull journey through these divergent realms..this is Sai - MLD in Session with DJ Sideways & Noosa Sound System.

Sai-MLD in Session with DJ Sideways & Noosa Sound System

Welcome to Episode 240 on Poisonoise Music with this set coming in from Australian based artist Noosa Sound System. 

Noosa Sound System is a creative project initiated in 2020 by long time DJ, Producer and one time label boss, Chris H, originally from the UK - now living in Noosa (on Kabi Kabi Country) Australia.

Bio : 
"It's like a vehicle for the exploration of space, place and bass - without complications!", says Chris. Which to date, and to his surprise, has manifested in multiple productions and releases of Ambient, Minimal and Dub-techno music across more than a few respected  labels, with more to follow. "Using the Sound System tag, allows room for the project to evolve" says Chris, "and it pays respect to the original Jamaican roots influence embedded in electronic music culture, rather than any one individual, allowing for the music to do the talking instead!" "I've finally been getting out and DJing again recently, which has been immense fun" adds Chris, "This set reflects a recent warehouse party I played at" Hope you enjoy.
