Callisto Rising - 27th December 2023

This fortnight’s show concludes a series of three which have focused on how music has always been numerous and differing empowering and life saving forces over the past 55 years of my life.
This show encapsulates me at age 55 now. Music is still as relevant and life affirming now, as it was back when I was 3 years old and vibing off my father’s Johnny Cash records.
Today’s show is all quite contemporary, the era covered is from 2012 to 2024, and many of these tracks are the ones that have hit me hard emotionally over the past 12 years. My inner power and balance has always come from the light and the dark, and hence this is the title for this show.
You may notice that one artist in particular features heavily in this show. Lights (Lights Poxleitner-Bokan, born Valerie Anne Poxleitner in 1987), is a Canadian musician, singer, and songwriter. Lights is known for her electropop and contemporary synth-pop tunes. Her musical style has been described as electropop, electronic rock and synth-pop. Lights describes her own music as an "electronic landscape of moody sunset times.” Over the past 2 years, I have explored and immersed myself in Lights work, as both a musician and as a very talented visual artist, and I have to admit I am now a massive fan for life. 
Lights is a publicly out and proud bisexual and neurodivergent woman, and she has been an inspiration for me to finally live my life with conviction and confidence in the same way. The Lights tracks I will play in this show showcase the extremes of Lights, from simple beautiful acoustic tracks through to incredible powerful rave anthems, and many other genres in between. Her lyrics are incredibly heartfelt and haunting, she channels all of her emotions in her music, and no matter what day my mood is traveling, there are always some Lights for me to switch on (pardon the pun)

Here goes another 3 hours of an uninterrupted immersive musical journey. 

I present to you “Dark Light”

Dark Light

The Darker Side of The Moon of Callisto:

Welcome again to the Callisto Rising fortnightly podcast where I mix together an eclectic selection of tracks that resonate with me in one way or another on an emotional level.

Today I’m digging into a few darker genres. Goth, Darkwave, Industrial, Synthwave and Post-Punk plus a few darker edged indie and alternative tracks from the 80s through to the 2020s.

A few tracks are my darker goth classics from my teenage years in the 1980s. UK Bands like the Cure, the Smiths, Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, Siouxsie & The Banshees and The Cult resonated powerfully for me when I was a teenager struggling with my sexual identity and my undiagnosed mental health disorders. The post-punk goth music scene in the 1980s has had far reaching influence still to this day, and this can be seen in many of the more recent selections I am playing in today’s show.

I’m also going to touch on some of the darker edged indie Australian music that was happening here while the goth scene was evolving in the UK in the 80’s and 90’s. Bands like Dead Can Dance, The Church, Died Pretty and Brisbane’s Up & Downs.

The remainder of the show is mostly more contemporary goth, darkwave, industrial and synthwave influenced stuff – Front Line Assembly, The Cruxshadows, Mesh, Covenant, Tenek and Conjure One plus a few indie / alternative artists / tracks that blend in well with the darker vibe of this show such as Swedish band Magna Carta Cartel, Fink and The KVB from the UK, and US artists Oingo Boingo, Loma and one of my all-time favourite bands, Devo.

Once again, I hope you enjoy some or all of the hand-picked selections in the next 3 hour digitally mixed show:

Collected

Corrupted (Geoff Pinckney Mix)

Welcome again to the fortnightly Callisto Rising podcast presented by Deano
Something quite different again for this show
I will be presenting over 3 hours of beatmixed house music, across quite a few genres of house, ranging from funk, nu-disco, indie-tronica, deep house, melodic house, organic house, afro-house, tech-house, minimal, alternative dance, indie-house, synthpop and progressive house. This set starts out around 110 bpm and progresses gradually up to 140 at the end. The majority of this set sits between 120 and 130 bpm
So how did I get here
In 1997 I spent a year in the UK. Prior to this, electronic music did not really register on my radar. Friends in the UK took me out to a cirus tent rave one weekend out near Reading and I experienced MDMA for the first time in a live and DJ electronic music setting. This experience was life changing for me, and upon my return to Australia, I became totally enmeshed with sourcing electronic house music that moved my soul and my body, and spending countless hours learning how to perfect beatmixing this music seamlessly. I started out making mix tapes and CDs, and sending these out to mates who organized large scale dance parties in Northern NSW and Brisbane. Back in those days I was known as DJ Dervish, and from around 1999 through to 2011 I DJ’d at many parties ranging from private home parties in the Mullumbimby hinterland through to large scale warehouse parties in Brisbane
I haven’t done any beatmixing now for well over 10 years, and it has been a lot of fun revisiting my old self and putting this set together in Ableton Live. This set consists primarily of tracks released over the past 3 or 4 years, although I have also mixed in one of my old 90’s house classics released back in 1994 – “Funk & Drive” by Elevatorman, which was a track I played out many times over my live DJ years
