Bside Incoming: Detroit in Effect

Well, well, well… this episode is a special one… we’re very pleased to mark the century with a legend.

It’s Detroit in Effect for our 100th Episode!

D.I.E have been electro royalty since the 90s, thriving in a city moulded by music: from local radio stations and musical communities, to Motown, Gospel and Parliament’s Funk, through to the pioneering hip-hop infused electronic music of the modern era. 
 
There’s a lot you could say about Detroit in Effect, but, their tracks speak for themselves:

So we’re flying you all out to Motor City to meet DJ Maaco from Detroit’s finest electro collective. We’re gonna take a little look into his record bag and pick out some of his all time favourite Bsides. While the first half reads like a Funky Hall of Fame, with Carl Carlton, Rick James and George Clinton, the second half tells us a little more about his D.I.E influences with electro legends like Cybotron, Egyptian Lover and Paul Hardcastle.

Marseille boys Raf and Vins aka The Signal Phantasm (@signalphantasm) impressed many with their first EP, Holy Bread, which has just been put out on Lumbago (@lumbagoo). Its pumping house rhythms with breakbeat interludes, ray-gun zaps and Snoop Dogg samples got us wondering what a mix from these guys would come out like. So we asked, and they delivered!

Their selection in today's podcast is described by R+V as a combination of cosmic Detroit sounds, futurist techno and avant-garde bleeps and breaks. It's got us more than ready to party with these two sometime in the near future.

Dear fellaz, please give a warm welcome to Kashawar for the 8th installement of our podcast season. For once, this podcast is a live recording from last summer, at our very favourite summer spot: the legendary Club Der Visionaere.
For years now, Kashawar has been refining his sound, both as a Dj and as a producer. His latest releases on Partisan are a turning point in Sergej's carreer, where we find him attracted to bleepy techno sounds. Likewise, our man has been heavily digging lately, this podcast showcases an immersion among his unnumerable dancefloor burners. 
We have been impressed by the bold selection and can't help but regret to have missed that special night at CDV - thankfully, Kashawar recorded it, and kindly submitted it to BMP. Press play and come join us in the smallest Berlin dancefloor!

Bside podcasts

DJ's showcase and speak a little about their favourite tracks from the B-side of their records.

We endeavour to broadcast the best of the B-side:
a bi-weekly invitation into the impressive record collections of some of our favourite selectors.
An exploration into the the back-catalogues, the deepest depths, the darkest crevices of their collections. Returning with the spoils of this venture: their most cherished records and hidden gems, from the go-to club weapons to the rarely heard home-listening records, and everything in between.

Music is for sharing.

'By the early sixties, the song on the A-side was the 'hit' song that the record company wanted radio stations to play. The B-side would contain less radio friendly and less popular tracks. In our eyes the B-side is a true reflection of the producers taste in music, there is more personality on that side of the record'.
