Expect. woozy simulation of only the most spellbinding psytrance from this familiar face of local nightlife, before going b2b with Ben Zo for the final hour infused with a bit of techno tonic.

Loveable, Hard Working, Absolutely Rowdy Party Starters, Speaker Freaks... yea I dunno, what more can you say about Sorry Records? One of New York's hardest working crews, and a bottomless well of support for the city's scene. With a love of dance music that seems to spring eternal, two of the very large brains (and hearts) behind the label finally make it to the Sweat Equity mix catalog, dropping an absolute ruckus of a mix from their Breaks in America party at Bossa.

Recorded live just before the end of 2021, this is a pretty fair look at why everyone should get familiar with the label if they aren't already, or maybe cheer a little louder next time @NickBoydnyc and @drvmmy are in the building. @sorry-records

SWEAT MIX 026  DRUMMY B2B NICK BOYD

Words by Nick (@nickboydnyc ) about this sonic memory:


"Memory for me is a tricky thing — a soup of emotion made of endless parts both real and imagined. This mix is a rumination on a theme found in my memory — hot pavement in the August sun, nutcrackers and backyard partying, sweating out an edible on the subway headed north, a handful of balloons let loose on a rooftop, and an accidental overload of research chemicals. Red White Blue and Green. White t-shirt and shorts, stoned to the bone, setting sun stuff."

Been meaning to do a rerecording of my downtempo mix for one of Walyalup's wildest queer collectives Smoked Trout, so here it is. 

To Ellie and Liv - thank you for having me roll back into the scene via a super wholesome and beautifully curated evening <3

Ontologic @ Smoked Trout "Where's Kickons?" 15.12.23

"For this mix I have created a journey through my favourite hypnotic, dark & hard sounds. I hope this mix makes you imagine you are floating through space or in a distant cosmic realm. . . I have tried to build a nice progression throughout the mix with some ambient, upbeat, dark & melodic elements in between.  Recorded from my home studio on CDJ-900s (my favourite CDJs)  Enjoy - iluna"

iluna is a Scottish DJ & producer. The name ‘iluna’ (derived from the Basque adjective ilun) meaning "darkness; dark; somber; gloomy; mysterious; obscure", perfectly sums up iluna’s sound. iluna has residencies with Surge in Glasgow, EpiKA (Edinburgh), Tribal Pulse and has supported the likes of VITALIC, Harvey McKay, Co-accused and will be performing at this year’s Terminal V Festival in Edinburgh.This year sees iluna launch her own music collective & club night ASCEND launching in The Poetry Club Friday 26th April. ASCEND delves into the deep, dark, hypnotic & hard side of techno, supporting highly skilled artists with that extra attention to detail. 
By day iluna works as Project Manager for Resonate Music Conference, label manager for 23rd Precinct’s in-house labels & label assistant for Trial Pulse.

Swirling acid madness from the ever brilliant mind of Ridgewood, Queens’ Maxime Robillard, Love Letters’ “Falling Star EP” — the latest record on Interdimensional Transmissions — crawls inside your brain and takes many shapes as it brings you to ecstatic experiences on the dance floor. The vinyl is presented with 4 new songs, the A side containing the brain melter “Falling Star” that just builds and builds until reaching a rapturous release, and the frenetic “Tore”. The B side contains remixes of 2 originals — the first by No Way Back resident Mike Servito exploring his Detroit electro bass roots (and the first record in the IT catalog) for “Let the Bass Go”, and the second remix is of the jam “Morse” by IT founder BMG in his new studio, the first creation in the new room, moving towards a more holographic sound. The originals of “Let the Bass Go” and “Morse” are digital exclusives, making the digital version of this EP 6 tracks total. 

A1  Falling Star
A2  Tore
B1  Let the Bass Go (Mike Servito's 313 Bass Mix)
B2  Morse (BMG Mix)

Digital Bonus:

‘We Fight Because We Like It’

By Janus Rose – after Jacques Lusseyran, Refaat Alareer, Anonymous


We fight because we like it

It’s not about how we win

but how we choose to live

There’s no paradise waiting

at the end of the queer rainbow

There is no trans utopia

that has yet to be won

There is only here and now

and our collective refusal

to stop breathing

•

There is only this world

and we shape it with our bare hands

We inhale the ashes of burning books,

smuggling all the names 

and histories inside our bodies

before they float into the night sky

We call upon Silvia, upon Marsha 

We see Refaat’s kite, flying high

We write letters to our siblings

who’ve been locked in cages

and called “criminals”

We destroy old statues

and dance with joyful

flowing motions in the wreckage

•

We fight because we like it

Because one day

everything will be dust

and no one will remember why

they didn’t want us to exist.

We’ll just sit around 

and tell stories

about how we lived  

by any means necessary.

JANUS ROSE - We Fight Because We Like It

Fuelled by an insatiable desire to carve his own path, Seracc immersed himself in the underground music scene, where he found a sense of belonging among like-minded individuals who shared his devotion to the pulsating beats and immersive soundscapes of techno.

In an industry often swayed by fleeting trends and commercial interests, Seracc remains steadfast in his commitment to authenticity and artistic integrity. Refusing to conform to the mainstream, he dares to tread uncharted territories, forging his own path through the sonic wilderness. Eschewing the allure of conformity, Seracc embraces the avant-garde, pushing the boundaries of conventional techno with his experimental soundscapes and boundary-pushing composition’s.
