Solid Steel (2nd January) In hour 2 we welcome Discodromo, the Italian duo based in Berlin who also founded the Cocktail d'Amore label alongside Berghain resident Boris Dolinski. Although down a notch in tempo, this mix retains the quality throughout. We don't have a tracklist, but it's full of their trademark sound that successfully treads the line between cosmic disco and house.

In Hour 2 it's DJ Khalab from Italy (another Black Acre artist), who has collaborated with Solid Steel 2014 Mix of the Year winner Clap!Clap! He had this to say about his mix;
"The beat tape is divided in two parts. The first one is the pure beat tape, with tracks totally unreleased, and it most represents the beatmaking aspect and field recording. It's the more instinctive and it's all made by the sampler (sp404), which is the central hub of this part.
The second part is made integrally by unreleased tracks and remixes composed with some friends of mine (clap clap!, mo kolours, ninos du brasil). It's the part that more represent the job of the producer, it was made in the studio with several softwares, sequencers, synthesizers."

Scuba Boiler Room Berlin 2015 DJ Set

Over the past two years, Matt Karmil has dealt a number of masterstrokes. If his various appearances on Yumé, BiS, and Mule Musiq haven't flagged up on your radar, his forthcoming outing on Studio Barnhus deserves your undivided attention.

The EP's lead-track 'Moment' hardly needs our co-sign. It's already been the high watermark of DJ Koze's sets this summer. It was the parting gift that Axel Boman left Beats in Space in his last podcast. When we received it back in July, it was only shared between Barnt, Koze, Ada and the Barnhus family itself. After two months, we're falling over ourselves to give you the exclusive.

Dive in — there aren't enough superlatives.

BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 2015

Solid Steel in association with Serato (9th October) Iranian producer Ash Koosha is our guest in Hour 1, who gained a lot of attention from Pitchfork following his debit album GUUD released earlier this year. After being jailed in 2007 for putting on concerts in Iran, he moved to London and now produces beautiful and intricate electronic music and we're delighted to have a mix from him this week. He told us;

"The 60 minutes i put togher for Solid Steel is focused on the idea of Human vs Machine and the Machine as a Bio-mechanical entity, in other words the future "us". 
The idea of a Transhumanist world inspired me to mix from folky Bulgarian choir to the "Living-Machine" sounds of Leila Arab and Brood Ma. The engagement of classical music with the future of sound.
Putting the two poles together resulted in a new sonic spectrum where the value of frequency is above source of sound."

GETME! is a London-based label and art collective operating in the more progressive end of the electronic music spectrum – with label head and NTS host, Lixo (Alex Hislop), exhibiting that exact manifesto in productions of his own. Take today's debuted track "Golding" as an example, with its elasticated chrome-finish chords captivating ears from the outset. This refreshing take on electronic music has earned both Lixo and GETME! precedence in one of the world's leading cities for dance music.

Check GETME!'s Soundcloud for their back catalogue of releases, mixes and archived NTS shows.

Lixo "Golding" - Boiler Room Debuts

First up and out on Mr Beatnick's new Mythstery imprint is the Instant Bull LP from Genevan producer and Beatnick's longtime friend and collaborator, Breakplus.

Partly a beat tape, partly a mini-album, Instant Bull is a hip hop celebration of Turkish rock. Breakplus' musical journey began during the golden era of hip hop, and upheld this musical rhetoric in his own records, shown through his deft sampling skills. Anatolian sounds are one of the "world music" samples popping up more and more in dance music, with our highlight track "An Atol Alien" ringing bells of day parties and festival sets gone by. A little glimpse of Turkish sunshine.

Instant Bull drops on 9th November via Mythstery.

Skrux - Essence

Throughout music's moody 'post-everything' age, husband and wife Amanda and Britt Brown have worked solidly for 10+ years to provide quality releases via their Not Not Fun / 100% Silk flagship – the latter being NNF's five-year-old offshoot which has catalogued dance music releases by the likes of Gerd Janson, Fort Rameau and Luca Lozano.

After his 2013 Reunion cassette, this November marks the second release on 100% Silk for Mancunian producer, James Booth, with his vinyl debut, Human Rites. Using nothing but an old iMac to craft the six musical designs, Booth found liberation in the limitation, explaining: "I ended up focusing more deeply on the melodies and sound of each instrument." As Booth says, this is "music for processes and passages; time elapses and we change", and title track "Human Rites" undoubtedly takes the prize for this. A nostalgic *soundscape* which is rich in the nuances of 1990s ambient music, sustaining the 30-minute journey that we embark on with Booth throughout the EP.

Human Rites drops on 12" on 6th November.

James Booth "Human Rites" - Boiler Room Debuts

Father and Sons Records and Tapes has been doing great things for electronic music throughout 2015. Keeping with tradition, the Polish collective are preparing a compilation to round off their year of successes suitably. Set to drop next month via Requiem Records, eleven gleaming electronic fruits are brought forth from members of FASRAT's family tree including Naphta, Das Komplex, label boss Maciek Sienkiewicz and – one Poznan local whose name has erupted (rightfully so) as of late, Selvy.

His laid back joint for FASRAT comes up trump(et)s on our cards. Soaked in indulgent reverbed hi-hats, its cheeky and mellow nature chimes in tune with recently Debuted sounds emanating from Distant Hawaii and Smallville camps. One to undoubtedly watch in the coming months.

Catch FASRAT's Compilation #1 dropping in full on 7th December.

Selvy "The Trumpet" - Boiler Room Debuts

Solid Steel in association with Serato (27th November) Prayer steps up in Hour 1 with a mix packed with unreleased tracks. With influences such as Max Richter, Burial and Philip Glass, his music has continued to attract attention since his release on the Cult Music label run by Zomby. His latest EP 'Beneath' is out on Grade 10, the label he runs as part of a collective from Leicester and a track from the EP features in his mix alongside music from Ipman, Sully, Last Japan, Kollaps and some Musique Concrète from East Anglia by Denis Smalley. Prayer had this to say;
"The mix is mainly a showcase of the collective I work within - grade 10 featuring upcoming unreleased material, as well my own music. I’ve also chosen to feature are artists I am a fan of at the moment. I enjoy music that is raw, moving and not overproduced, it has a different energy for me. Through this mix I present a cinematic journey based on this idea."

Vessels' original incarnation for "Elliptic" was quite something. Not normally known for their forays into electronica, the rock band's new direction could have sent them down the one way street to oblivion. Instead, the outcome was 8mins of true hypnotic bliss; sounds that were custom-built for that eyes-shut, euphoric passage on the dance floor.

The band’s 3rd album Dilate was recently signed to Different Records and gets re-released in 2016 with a caboodle of extra edits and remixes. One of those remixes happens to be by Ross Tones aka Throwing Snow. Grounded, or should we say lifted by that same somniferous feel, the makeover is amped by a puffier drum and low-end backbone. The movement is transformed from starry-eyed rapture to head-nodding beatitude — music for the mid-night rush and beautifully done at that.

Vessels "Elliptic (Throwing Snow Remix)" - Boiler Room Debuts

 Sometimes you see yourself in distant cities.
You take photos.
Sometimes you look in the mirror and see an animal in a sac.
You take photos.

More rylo3 gorgeousness here https://soundcloud.com/rylo-3

lyrics by lemonade:

sometimes when I travel to distant cities
I catch glimpses of myself
walking walking with a dark black hat,
a dark coat, always carrying something.

two bags of groceries, 
a blue high stroller with 
a child, a white plastic suitcase, round as a pill. 
I look intent.
I look content. 
But all that black I wear 
makes it look as though I am in mourning, 
that I am somehow older, wiser. 
That I have seen and done things 
that matter,

'That modernity has  taken my softness and made me angular, crystalline,' —that's what you would say.

I just take photos. 
I don't believe what I see,
how can I?

Walking, walking with a dark black hat,
a dark coat, always carrying something,
going somewhere—
all those different lives in different cities.

And when I, myself, 
the real me, return to my hotel room, 
I go to the bathroom to take a look at myself.
to compare. 


 But instead of my long arms and short legs, 
 I see a small unborn pig floating 
where my stomach is supposed to be.  
Eyes closed. 
Skin still hairless, smooth and white.
It's floating in a clear plastic sac .
And my face is blurred out.
I'm not important.

What's in sharp focus 
is the tiny sleeping pig.
as though I'm a disguise.

Why am I a pig, I think? 
Why an unborn pig wrapped in a human? 

One time in Prague, I saw myself get run over.

And in the mirror
I saw no pig. 
but a grey and white kitten in a plastic sac. 
 I couldn't tell
if it was awake or asleep, alive or dead. 
the plastic sac was a sign.
After that, I didn't really leave my hotel room much.
No more hunting. 
No more photos of myself in distant cities.
I think I understood. 
 
Who made me?
Why did I not make food or make children?
 
I think I understood
why I only saw them in cities.
I think I understood.

Not once had any of them been startled.
Not once had any of them looked back
I was unremarkable.

and that's when I realized: only I think 
that we look alike.

But I don't know what I look like.
I don't have a photo.
 
I think sometimes that even you look like me.  
And then I wonder
If you do this deliberately,
folding your leg, dangling your foot, shaking it. 
when I fold mine. 

A word only I use, you use 
until it is worn out. 

And I diminish, I fall silent. 
Like a candle lit, I diminish.
And my stomach hurts.


And one day you wear a black shirt and black
shoes. It's like you're dipped in ink. 
And I am afraid. I don't go to the mirror,
My stomach hurts 
as though there is something sharp inside it.
I know what you would say.

'That modernity has overtaken my softness and made me angular.'
But I have no idea what you mean. 
You like shapes. 
You add meaning. 
You are a public intellectual who says things. 


But I am an imperfect copy, carbon copy, 
so smeared as to be unrecognizable,
torn off and somehow fluttering loose. 
Alive and overlooked, 
fainter, incomplete, markings of the same hand, 
but somehow fused to the background as though I am not a person but the entire landscape.

"It just hurts, " that is what I would say.
I swallowed something sharp and it hurts.
I swallowed something sharp and it hurts.
