Human relations are the root of everything and this friendly mixtape just confirms it. The second podcast in this series is recorded by our friend from France – Alma @wtnsmusic. Alma is a top-notch selector, the former and the voice of the Envelope Cruz. We wanted to compare this mixtape with a good wine, to say a couple of words about aging, flavors and aftertaste, however we bet these metaphors are needless here. This mix is a pure high, and unlikely with the wine you don't need to allow it to breathe before tasting. Enjoy!

Eddie Symons’ fine recent run for Central Processing Unit continues. The NULLPTR mastermind makes it four releases on the Sheffield label in five years with Recursor, a six-track EP which balances precision-engineered machine-funk grooves with an overarching aura of gracefulness.

Recursor finds its lane from the opening title-track. On the quicksilver ‘Recursor’ we get Drexciyan punch, a needlegun bassline and staccato arps offset by eerie washes of synths. There’s a tension between the two elements of the track, and this yin-yang combination means that’ Recursor’ will work equally well for both the rave’s darkest corners and also the euphoria of a sunrise set.

After the title-track begins the record at breakneck speed, ‘Pulsar’ puts proceedings into cruise control. There’s still enough punch in the drum programming to ensure that ‘Pulsar’ will deliver in the dance, but this mid-paced tune is dominated by its warping bassline and keening keys, all of which comes together for a pretty and strangely wistful number. ‘Pulsar’s energy persists into following cut ‘Phase Function, though there’s a twitchiness to the bassline here which gives this track a nervier, more neurotic feel. As well as the golden age of Detroit electro, you’re also looking at Silicon Scally and Annie Hall as ballpark references, though there’s a winning idiosyncrasy to the production here which is all NULLPTR’s own.

The groove which kicks off the second half of Recursor is one of the most focussed on the whole EP - ‘Seil’ has a bassline which moves with the intent of a heat-seeking missile. When combined with the distant snap of 808s and twinkling arps, the whole thing very much maintains the shadowy feeling of ‘Phase Function’, and it’s an energy that Recursor rides into ‘Stone Tape’. ‘Stone Tape’ boasts another stellar bassline, but rather than the low-end barrelling forward intensely as it does on ‘Seil’ the bass here skips all around the mix, pleasingly erratic and playful. 

‘Portal’ is an apt title for Recuror’s sixth and final track. Indeed, the whole vibe of ‘Portal’ makes it a perfect closer for this EP of detailed electro jams. This tune really does feel like a portal being opened, the bass and drums busying themselves on the floor while chemtrails of synth in the upper-end of the mix intimate something enticing beyond the threshold.

Sparky yet sleek, Recursor is the latest fine machine-funk collection from NULLPTR.

ERUPTIONS #04 W/ STEREOMETRIX & BLANK 29/06/2023

bijū arose from the need to explore the intersection of machine and body, the need to blur the boundaries between dehumanized electronic sound and the natural environment. Its selection is a constant search between minimalist and dense, dynamic and slow, sharp and blurry sounds. Inspired by the vibration of synthesizers enriched by echoes emanating from the abyss, transforms the soundscape into a psychedelic spectacle.
As part of the Warsaw based Ukrainian collective SUMISH wants to strengthen interactions between people through synergies, exchange of vision and knowledge, building bridges between the migrant community and local society through the different creative disciplines. 
His latest LP "Land of Abundance" was released on Berlin based Sons of Traders Records. Curator of “Healing Machine” radio show on Mutant Radio, dedicated to slow-rolling experimental music.

Mejle DJ set @ DT CAMP 2023

We continue the GF series this week with one of the pillars of the Dutch electro scene, none other than DJ Overdose. Hailing from The Hague and based in Rotterdam, his story starts in the eighties. His vision was to create a vibe “where the subs are devastating and the beats are raw". He underpins his work with booming Miami bass and draws on his love for 80s hip-hop to conjure up his signature style. He's etched his mark on deeply loved and respected labels such as L.I.E.S., Creme Organization, Bordello A Parigi, Pinkman, Viewlexx, Murder Capital, his own RotterHague, and many others. Famously dexterous in the booth, DJ Overdose has well-honed skills that make him able to tear up a larger stage or connect with a more intimate crowd. He graces this series with a two-and-a-half-hour live recording at the Down The Rabbit Hole festival. Lock in!'

Glad to share a second episode of False Awakenings Loops with Umresh. Here you'll get an arthouse in the world of mixes. It could easily be the soundtrack to Safdie brothers movie or something similar. 

False Awakenings Loops show aims to create a series of audio narrative essays focused on topics like love, dreams, sleep, life, and death. Each track in the compilation serves as its own story or chapter, contributing to the overall narrative. Through the art of mixing, the music itself becomes a language, conveying complex themes and emotions.

The author of the show, Umresh is a multi-genre DJ originally from Siberia, who has primarily showcased her talents in Prague and Berlin. Her DJ sets and mixes feature music that has had a profound emotional and intellectual impact on her, both in the past and present.

Welcome back to the Right fm. Long time no see, but now we are here for you with some great stuff!

Techy, hybrid and all that break-bass-psy-dub sounds. 

— «This is literally one of my faaaaaavourite podcast works. It’s like an ancient wisdom, like mind flow state. Everything is in the right place, I tried to create a narrative and had much pleasure working on it. It has interesting bpm line - from 130 to 160 and then 80-90».

So, as always - have a nice trip! (We don’t know how is it possible not to be nice, though).

——

С вами снова на связи Райт радио. Давно нас не было, но возвращаемся с хорошим лотом!

Технологичное, гибридное. Все такое брейк-бас-псай-тэк-даб. 

— «Это точно одна из моих сааааааамых красивых работ по части подкастов. Он как древняя истина, и про состояние потока. Там все на нужном месте, старалась сделать рассказ и испытала огромное удовольствие записывая его. У него интересная линия бпм от 130 до 160 и потом к 80-90».

В общем, что можем сказать — приятного прослушивания! (Как может быть неприятно — не понимаем).
