Sebastian Mullaert & Ulf Eriksson @ SoHaSo Take-Over Trouw (14-11-2014)

We're happy to present the recording of Sebastian Mullaert and Ulf Ericksson's live/dj set at the Labyrinth 2015. Seb and Ulf played the first night, entitled "Full Circle". It was a set where everything came together beautifully and organically, crowd and artists and music, and we all felt it was something worth sharing.

Here is the full 3.5 hour recording, together with a few words from Seb and Ulf: 

"For me, everything comes and goes in circles. And like everything else these circles are unpredictable; spiralling and reformulating like a kaleidoscope. Manifestations of patterns in this very moment; Consciousness.

I played the first edition of Labyrinth, had a few returns during the years and now returned for the 15th edition. Russ and Yasuyo, together with their Mindgames crew, have always performed their festival with a focused and radical mind; one intention, one passion - to create a psychedelic experience of dance surrounded by the Japanese nature. While the festival has grown in many ways since my first episode at Labyrinth, this radical focus on the mind-altering experience and the true love for dance have remained the same, with no sign of resignation.

This year I shared the stage together with Ulf Eriksson; a friend who has become a very special creative collaborator. To be a part of Labyrinth and to play this specific gig is the most magical experiential puzzle of moments I've shared with Ulf. This is an experience that will continue to remind us why we are doing this – why we are part of this ever shifting circle, spiralling into inspiration upon aspiration - something that never stops. I'm forever thankful to Russ and Yasuyo both for giving us the opportunity to play, sharing this recording and also creating a series of experiences and stimulations, resulting in each of us that listens as individuals becoming a part of something bigger and more all-encompassing – a circle that connects us beyond the realms of materialism, into the unpredictable.

Russ, Yasuyo and the Labyrinth are a true source of inspiration and a reminder to all of us in love with dance and electronic music that there is no end to the power of experience. 

Let us continue to remind each other, again and again, circle by circle, moment by moment into eternity."

- Sebastian Mullaert

"To play the Labyrinth festival has always been a bit of a dream of mine. Why, I do not know exactly. Maybe it's because it takes place far away, in Japan. Maybe it's because of all the stories you have heard from the festival. Maybe it's because of the unique tribal mystic that surrounds it, in combination with the nature of the location. Maybe it's because of the small group of artists, who all become like family for a few days. I do not know. But what I do know is that this dream has always been there and I am sure I share I it with a lot of musicians and DJs around the world. Anyway, 2015 I was lucky enough to be offered a slot, due in large part to my collaboration with Sebastian Mullaert, who already played there many times, both as Son Kite and as Minilogue.

So there we were behind the Labyrinth tipi, me and Sebastian, ready to go. Or, rather, not ready at all. We had prepared each to our selves but never found the time to meet up and rehearse together. I remember that Sebastian looked at me just before the set, and said something like: "I will not be sad or disappointed if things do not go well". I guess he was trying to calm me down since he knew I was kind of nervous. Anyway, off we went and thankfully, for some unknown reason, it was one of those gigs where everything just felt right.

So here is the recording. I still have not listened to it, and I do not think I will. I think I prefer to stay with the live memory of how it sounded. But I do hope that you will listen to the set, and that it will give you pleasure and meaning, just as my memory of it."

IS 288 - Ulf Eriksson [Kontra-Musik]

Here is something special we recorded for you in one take from Ulf’s living room at Poppel street in Malmö. It’s the softer and deeper side of us, captured in the flow of the moment outside the context of a dancefloor, where most of you will be experiencing this journey too. One for those beautiful autumn days where the sunshine of the summer echoes in the fall of the leaves announcing the colder seasons. Something to keep you warm in the cold days coming up :)

Ulf Eriksson & Sebastian Mullaert - The Poppel Experience Podcast

The dance is a rare and precious project for kontra-musik, run by label boss ulf eriksson and sebastian mullaert (aka minilogue). the two friends have been touring the world together for quite some time now – sebastian with his synths and machines and ulf with his bursting record bag. it’s the fusion that makes the dance such a great experience; the fusion of different techniques and temperaments. every performance is unique, building upon the connection between sebastian’s live improvisations, ulf’s simultaneous selection and the moving bodies on the dancefloor. because ultimately, it’s the dance that really matters: the sacred link between the hands of the few with the feet of the many

Ulf Eriksson [ kontra-musik ] Sweden

This mix is basically a view into the nearest future of the label Kontra-Musik. New or unreleased Kontra-tracks are blended with some older and to me special rough and minimal techno tracks. Through is all I have tried to select music that is unique, engaging and special in some way.
The mix has been recorded using two Technics 1210, twp cd-players and my very old, hardly working analogue Vestax pmc-mixer. Some vinyls used are very old and sounds like shit. But as we all know by now, funk must remain impure. Before publishing good old Andreas Tilliander did some small mastering work to spice up the sound a bit. He is also the man behind the TM404 tracks in the beginning. TM404 uses a multiple set up of the the classic Roland machines TB-303 and TB 606 to create a mesmerizing acidic techno-drone. TM404 will release a full lenght album on Kontra-Musik in January. Hope you enjoy the mix!
