With his latest solo album Quiet Pieces initiating his imprint Soft Echoes, Abul Mogard mixes composers and collaborators that have permeated his discography and inspirations. An impeccable sense of flow and continuity defines these selections, as Mogard says: "I imagined this mix as an atmosphere you could inhabit – a quiet weave of pieces I’m drawn to. It’s a sound collage of old and new music, where tracks meet and overlap gently, carrying you along in a flow while subtly shifting the scenery beneath your feet." From groaning ambience to trilling winds and warm washes of glitching noise comes a frisson of flutes on Stefano Pilia’s ‘CADUX / Plectere’ over an all consuming rumbling bass drone. Mogard highlights vocals in the midsection: the hissing of ‘Anticredos’, Meredith monk’s harmonic conterplay with arrays of pointillist vocal notes, Félicia Atkinson’s spoken word barely rising from its quietude, before brewing a dense buzzing electrical storm of swirling currents and gyres with the final few tracks, the rugged and visceral clockwork of Rafael Anton Irisarri mechanically crumbling as William Basinski’s piano notes eternally intone.

Mark Van Hoen has been enjoying a retrospective moment in his career as he has collected for his albums on Dell’Orso Records, and this mix takes a look back at his many collaborations and bands since the 90s. Showcasing great range, Van Hoen has moved from complex analogue synth blips to snarling, sneering, sizzling shoegaze with ease. Sarah Peacock’s vocals come through bright and clear on Scala’s ‘Words & Thoughts’, while later tracks dive into gently shaking bass buzz with angelic voices swooping and gliding, and pulsating hypnotic slowburns. Soon, bittersweet and explorative sweeps of strings evolve into deep guitar grooves, plaintively tiptoeing synthpop, and thrashing blasts of guitar shreds.

Flying through funk, soul, psychedelia, and enchanting soundtracks, Adam Wiltzie commemorates the 30th anniversary of Stars of the Lid’s debut Music for Nitrous Oxide with a mix mirroring the album’s spaciousness and throbbing rawness. The lurching guitars of Wiltzie’s Windsor For The Derby band pace out a textural abyss, allowing for the hushed, gentle twitches of Loscil’s ‘Sticky’ to slowly expand as frost growing on a windowpane, and the fluid melismatic bansuri of Hariprasaf Chaurasia to unravel throughout much of the mix. Smooth organ glides and lush harmonies later lead to a convergence of dextrous, emotive guitar plucks on vAntonio Pinto**’s cinematically swelling ‘Maradona Childhood’.

“It was great fun while it lasted but unfortunately it only lasted a short time. I am appreciative that after all these decades we can return & acknowledge this time capsule from my past & for the mix i suppose If a song is worth anything, its about the life of the listener....”

For Tectonic’s 20th anniversary, label boss Pinch rounds up some heaters from the label alongside their Tectonic Sound compilation. Spinning the whole bass spectrum, Pinch goes from broiling two step to scrubbing grime, with frazzled pulse discharging great energy beside Trim’s idiosyncratic, expressive raps. Lighter moments like the whizzing, zipping, euphoric arpeggios of Peverlist’s ‘Feel Something’ are offset by guttural moody bass, travelling from the club convergence of rattles and tings and brightly resonating metals on Bohdi’s ‘Bellcurve’ to the heavy rotating bass of J. Sparrow’s ‘L33T SP33K’, with slippery dub lasers echoing out.

“Here's me mixing live on CDJs for an hour, bringing you the sound of my sets right now, also bringing in some current and classic Tectonic tracks as part of our 20-year celebrations and showcasing a few tracks from the Tectonic Sound compilation too - that's out now!” - Pinch

The versatility of On-U Sound shines in this generous mix from the label crew, “90 minutes of deep cuts, lost classics and non-label Sherwood productions, recorded using two turntables and a stack of original vinyl.” There’s the classic fluttering horns, hot sticky bass and guitars, from the likes of Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry and Dub Syndicate, and then there’s the leftfield grooves of African Head Charge with whirring, rattling, thunking drums and percussion, the drilling industrial soundscape of Mark Stewart & The Maffia. Sitting in between are the psychedelic jazz dub fusions of Playgroup with slick dextrous bassline and ricocheting drums, the reggae inflected synth funk of Shara Nelson, and Little Annie’s sensual spoken word drowning in idiosyncratic desire.

Bleep Mix #307 - On-U Sound

We've been gifted this lovely podcast from one of our stateside friends, namely the prolific beat maker extraordinaire @florafm who has seen a number of wicked releases on some of our favourite labels including Planet Euphorique and Kalahari Oyster Cult. He's turned in just over an hour of soulful electronic music that ranges from bumpy house to kaleidoscopic broken techno tracks. Here's what Taylor had to say about the mix: 

"This one's an introverted mix for alone-time on the bus, the plane or the train. As the days get shorter and the sun is obscured, I often find myself lost in thought about what what could have been and what's coming next. These tracks are all long players with delicate, beautiful journeys of their own, meant to soundtrack those solo journeys of life."

Introduce yourself? Hometown? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself

Hey, my name is Miah Benton aka ADAB. I’m Chicago born, Cleveland raised, and currently Pittsburgh based. A fun fact about myself is that I’m largely identifiable by my weird pants people see me wearing all the time.

Favorite music collective atm?

There’s a few at the moment for me actually. TUF (Seattle), Honcho (Pittsburgh), Sublimate (NYC) and Room 4 Resistance (Berlin) are all doing some of my favorite stuff right now in one way or another.

Favorite mix series?

Definitely more than one for this category as well haha. Rave Scout Cookies, Daisychain Podcast, Abstract Without Extraction, Spontaneous Affinity, Neptunian Influence,Beyond/Below,HNYPOT and Truants are a few continually putting great stuff on my radar these days.

Describe the vibe of your ideal party? Space? Smell? Drinks? Anything you can think of ;)

My ideal party is a heavily POC and Queer warehouse that smells of shea butter, Palo Santo, Sage, Leather and Latex. The decorations are a blend of pan african/afrofuturist interior design and dystopian neon lighting. And it’s BYOB but there is a juice bar to keep everyone feeling balanced.

Dream b2b? 

I think most of my dream b2b’s right now with the sounds I’m into are with people I know personally in one way or another:

Titonton Duvante x ADAB
CCL x ADAB
Tabasheer x ADAB
Clark Price x ADAB
SOLD x ADAB
HI-VIS x ADAB
FANA x ADAB

All of these would be really fun and interesting in their own unique ways.

Let’s play a pipipi game… I give you a situation and you give me a track

Any ritual performed before djing? 

Every set I bring at least one african mask from my personal altar at home and set it up in the booth.

Describe the weirdest club moment you have experienced?

I was closing one of the Motherbeat parties we do in Hot Mass and at one point started to lose control of my hands via them cramping/clenching shut. Had never heard of it happening to other deejays so for a minute I was worried I was having a stroke or something lol.

Which current friends in your life inspire you on a day to day basis?

Well off top my partner Ayn aka FANA, the entirety of the In Training crew (Mx.Silkman, Father of Two, and Kiernan Laveaux),Tabasheer, Julie Mallis, Ali Berger, CCL, Russell E. L. Butler, Savile, Kamal Naeem, Eris Drew, Octo Octa, SOLD,and Hi-Vis.

Advice to beginning dj’s?

Don’t get discouraged. It’s all in the time you put in. Practice and don’t fixate on others accomplishments. And never ever be afraid to be weird...

Describe the best dj/live set you have seen this year? 

I saw a lot of great sets this year but I’ll keep it short and say seeing our beloved Eris Drew play Now Way Back as I did backstage security was a thrill.

Favorite DJ trick? 

A well placed backspin is always a ton of fun. 

Look on whatever platform you use to listen to music and what is your most listened to track?  

This is one of the most heavily listened to tracks in my youtube account: 
Spiral Tribe “MI5” https://youtu.be/M8viegBjUTM

DJ dream of yours? 

Currently it’s playing the Nyege Nyege Music festival in Uganda. Some of the others are weirdly already happening haha. 

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

I’d like to see more diversity in sound,audience make up, and booking in the dance music community.In my personal opinion too much of it is still very homogeneous and doesn’t reflect the inherent diversity/resistance of this powerful form of music.

Digging into an assorted box of breezy techno, breaks and fractured electro, Daisy Moon's show hurtles with a kinetic zeal.

Peach Discs #4 - Daisy Moon

Following the single ‘Derriere / DJ Logic Please Forgive Me’ 12” released in summer 2019 gaining support by the likes of Four Tet, Ben UFO, Anthony Naples, Daphni and DJ Python, @Logic1000 is due to release her self titled EP this February. To celebrate this, we asked her for a mix for our Bleep Series. Here we see her move across garage, house, techno and UK Bass styles including many of her own productions and edits.

Bleep Mix #91 - Logic1000

Taiwanese-born audio technologist Mei-Fang Liau moonlights as Floating Spectrum, a moniker that encompasses the immersive, cinematic soundscapes she conjures up. 

Her debut album, A Point Between, arrived last autumn on Temporary Residence, an exploration of organic and synthetic textures created through using everyday household objects, synthesizers and software synthesizers built by Liau herself. Built on the foundations of two compositions she wrote for a dance performance, she examined themes around life: how it emerges, flourishes and eventually decays and the emotions associated with these different phases. 

Her work is meditative, thought provoking and intricate, something that is stimulated by her technological ambition and her ability to create depth and texture in simplicity. 

Here she eases us into the new decade with a mix of beautiful, ambient soundscapes. Just what the doctor ordered...

Floating Spectrum: The 'Monday Is OK' Mix

excerpt from @caitfa 's set at radiant love nov '19

009 - CÁIT (live at radiant love)

Weird Science is Sunday afternoon monthly event series at Magick City for local and guest dj's to showcase their personal tastes beyond regular club environment.

Presented here is excerpt of Kiernan Laveaux set recorded live on Sunday October 20th, 2019 in Brooklyn NY, as part of the Interzone Music Festival.

Kiernan Laveaux is a transfeminine conduit from Cleveland, Ohio, one of the founding members of In Training, a long running queer event series founded in 2014; she is now based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Inspired by the sound of the midwest U.S, she's embarked on a lifelong journey of exploring rhythms and reveling in the motherbeat.

MC16: Weird Science with Kiernan Laveaux

It might well have been her set at Freerotation in summer 2018 that really got people talking about Gigsta. It was there that the hardcore heads in the crowd were all abuzz with her fresh mix of heavy bass, house funk, off kilter rhythms and kinked synths. Since then she has become more and more visible at key parties round Europe, not only as resident at Berlin's Room 4 Resistance but also through her painstakingly researched and assembled radio shows for Cashmere, where she takes cues from literature, NASA launches, spoken word pieces and plenty more.

As the eagled-eyed will know, Gigsta has already been confirmed for Dekmantel Selectors in August, but to keep us going until then she has served up a special mix for us. You never know what you'll get with the Belgian artist, it could be hard and fast, could be grime, or could be garage. Here she goes for creepy and unsettling ambiance that eventually gets contorted into warped bass music, hyperactive club, hammering techno and euphoric jungle. It shows an unrivalled command of tempo and makes for a real seat-of-your pants ride.
