MIXES

This Spring, we had our inaugural New Palm campout in the high desert of Johnson Valley for two days and two nights of seasoned raging. After several years of delays, it was quite the feeling to have this come to fruition.

 We revisit our seasonal mix series with an approximation of a set from that weekend by New Palm regular Kevin Lipman, aka @under_current, who closed out our first night. Sure-footed, stoic, and moody, Kevin brought out the desert bleak with patient selections and sprinklings of his original work.
 
The campout was a veritable group effort, so thanks to everyone who came and did it right, and as always, big thanks to core enablers Carter & Leah for the brains and sound, Robbie & Mark for the muscles, Saba for the hot car, John for the tasteful shade, Michael, Tim & Sabrina for the libations, Alka, Josiah, Cha Cha (+ others) for the sustenance, and Phil for the wonderful eye.

About the Mix:
"With a nod to the past and an eye on the future, this mix was organized to showcase some of my most cherished musical influences from over the years while also showing where the future might take me. Interspersed with some of my favorite tracks by producers such as Peverelist and Christopher Ledger are a selection of recent, unreleased works of mine that hint at where I might be headed musically. Similarly, the Deconstructivism EP made in collaboration with DJ Economy pays homage to some of our favorite sub-genres like jungle and breakbeat while also exploring the possible paths forward." - undercurrent

Federation JI is the new project from Icelandic producer Felix Leifur and Japanese artist Daichi Saito. Known for his house, electro, and techno releases, Felix stepped away from the club circuit to challenge himself creatively, diving into live instruments and a wider range of songwriting. Over two years, he explored a palette shaped by ’70s/’80s jazz-funk and ’90s experimental rock, inspired by his dad’s old Japanese pressings and a love for exploratory sounds.

A chance meeting with Daichi in Copenhagen revealed a hidden thread of Japanese influence in the music, leading to a close collaboration. Daichi’s shimmering synths and textured keys reshaped the songs, adding a futuristic, dreamlike layer to Felix’s heavy grooves and emotive guitar work.

The album moves through slow-burning funk, cinematic textures, dreamy Rhodes melodies, and bursts of ’90s rock energy, balancing playful moments with deep, nostalgic undertones. From the warped guitar loops of Digital Súpa to the organ-driven drift of Sálmar & Suð, Federation JI is a conversation between two distinct musical worlds.

The result is something unexpected: Japanese/Icelandic future funk, soaked in atmosphere, groove, and emotion.

Recording of my DJ set at Club der Visionäre on August 12th. Unfortunately, the original recording was clipping quite a bit, so I re-recorded parts of the set. I had a bit too much fun, got carried away, and didn’t fully stick to my track list from that night 🫠. Hope you still enjoy it! Big thanks to Robert from Rawax for having me & shout out to Johannes Albert, Alexkid, Mario Liberti & Hila Max for the great company 🩵
