GEGEN XS >< Projekt Gestalten

This is KATAMII's set that she played after Rødhåd at this year's Daad Gathering promo party at Turbina. If you've ever been to O.Z.O.R.A. Festival, you've probably caught Katamii playing. Her sets are elemental parts of Pumpui, while she's also one of the music organizers and managers of the stage. Everything started in 2011 at O.Z.O.R.A. She played there in front of a major audience for the first time. Since then she's been the warm up artist for Yonti, The Lady Machine, KUSS, Sam Paganini, Tapefeed, Matrixxman, Marcal, Kr!z, Oliver Lieb, Moteka, Unbalance, Rene Wise, Arkan, Norman Nodge, Ignez, Olivia Mendez, Efdemin. She has shared decks with RØDHÅD, Blanka, Border One, Vil, Cravo, Deniro, Dj Kancheli, LYRIC, Mathys Lenne, Yogg, Truncate, Ø [Phase], Janina, Blue Hour, Thomas Hessler, Shlomi Aber, Luigi Tozzi, Claudio PRC and many more. She’s a resident artist at the Kolorado Festival since 2017. In 2019 she became the resident DJ in Budapest’s one of the most famous leading techno clubs the AETHER’s TAEC party series. She has a really impulsive style and you can always find that sneaky deep pulse that is present through her sets… She's a real wolf in sheep's clothing.

【 After Mexican producer DJ WEED and her groundbreaking EP "LA MÁQUINA", EP "U.S.S.N.D.S." by Slovak duo SELENoLAr, we are excited to announce our new Swine Records release. This time it's by world-renowned Tokyo-based producer and DJ @wrack90 with remixes by @jaijiu and @julioc0rd0va 】

∎ When you say global club music, there is no better concrete musical example than Wrack. He is making rich and hybrid, truly global music, which is a modern and innovative mixture of many international genres. South African GQOM, Mexican tribal, Colombian guaracha, Brazilian baile funk, Jamaican dancehall, UK Funky, UK grime, US trap, vogue, and many others. Wrack blends all together and still maintains his signature style. When you hear Wrack's fast percussion, you instantly know it's his music.

∎ For this EP, he says: "In a world where streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music are becoming mainstream, the sampling culture of the past, such as SoundCloud, is disappearing. I thought that this was such a waste, so I created this piece using free-flowing samples. So I say the theme of this project is freedom. I just wanted to sample freely." The tracks Paru and Goi are accompanied by remix versions by our musical friends Jaijiu from Buenos Aires' Rebote Discoteca and J. Córdova from Chicago's Agua de Rosas.

∎ Wrack is often your favorite DJ's/producer's favorite producer. Brodinski, Sinjin Hawke, Zora Jones, Umru, Scratcha DVA, or Kaval, you can hear his music in their sets for sure. As a DJ, he is a resident at Hong Kong Community Radio (HKCR) and has contributed mixes to Boiler Room, Mixmag, NTS, Rinse, and i-D. He played shows both in Japan and abroad, including Mexico City, Seoul, Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Xi'an, Xiamen, Hong Kong, Taipei, Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya, Sapporo, and many other places.

This was up online a while back when Trevor Wilkes hosted it at Fun-In-The-Murky, but I found it again and thought I'd archive it here.  Done sometime in 2002.

Music bits: 
An hour's worth of cuts and reworks, effects and weird scratches by artists like Frankie Bones, Joey Beltram, Adam Beyer, Andrei Morant, Dj ESP, Tony Rohr, Dj Sneak, Dj HMC, Nigel Richards, Dj Rush, Christian Morganstern, Mika, Bob Brown, Terry Mullan, Angel Alanis, Dietrich Schoenenman, Dj Urban, Freddy Fresh and myself.

Tech bits:
Acid 3.0 (final mixdown was 855 tracks! - unlike Ableton which I use now, each snippet in Acid required it's own track...damn damn)
Tuareg 1.5
Soundforge 5 bunch o' plugs
wavesurgeon 2.56

How it happened bits:
Lots of pieces dumped and loaded on the MPC2000xl like I'd do for a liveset.. cut up, filtered, run off through the patch bay into effects, crossfaded and recorded back in.

mix slows from 138 bpm to 105 bpm and then goes back up to around 135 somewhere in the middle...mostly done as an experiment learning smooth tempo changes in the program.

Machines....shut down...think about it

A seal of quality. It's the banner for a global network of friendships and creativity and - let's not forget - parties.
Made in Berlin. International. One of the most polyphonic chords ever struck by an electronic music label: Techno, Electronica, Indie, IDM, Pop, Beats, Song Writing. 
What matters is music that moves: bodies, spirits, emotions.
