This month Carhartt WIP Radio welcomes Cindy Li aka @ciel_dj, a Canadian DJ, producer, event host, and label manager. Ciel has been making waves in Toronto since the launch of her radio show in 2015 titled “Work In Progress.” Following its success, she began throwing a series of progressive parties under the same name in the area.
 
As a producer, Ciel is prolific. In 2017, she released her debut EP “Electrical Encounters“ on UK label @peachdiscs, which was followed by four more EPs and a mini-album "Trojan Horse". Her work is eclectic, featuring four-to-the-floor rhythms as well as more experimental ambient and New Age sounds. In 2019, Li launched the label Parallel Minds (@weareparallelminds) alongside artists like Daniel 58 (@58daniel) and Yohei S, (@whyesss) designed to bring progressive, Toronto-based electronic music artists to the rest of the world. Ciel’s DJ sets are just as dynamic as her own productions, refusing to conform to one particular genre. Shifting from breaks to electro, or minimal techno to jungle, their versatility reflects her love of different sounds.
 
For Carhartt WIP Radio, Ciel has put together a vibrant mix featuring purely original, unreleased material, melding house and break atmospheres, with flashes of techno and deep dub throughout.

As ever, we sat down with this month’s host, discussing how classical music training both helped and hindered her as an artist, the representation of women within electronic music, and her work as an encampment support volunteer. Check the full interview here:

Carhartt WIP Radio August 2022: Ciel

For the September edition of the Dummy Hand mix series, we gladly welcome long time resident at Salon des Amateurs in Düsseldorf and the man behind Offen Music, Vladimir Ivkovic. Slowed down and chugged out the mix takes shape as something aching for repeat listens, ridden with oddities and obscurities, all sewn together with the crisp precision of someone at the top of their craft. 

Fit for a lovely Friday night, get involved.

DUMMY MIX 004: Vladimir Ivkovic

Nueen has been mad busy in the last two years. The Barcelona-based Mallorcan has put out three albums of beautifully quiet and unhurried ambient. Each one has unfolded with its own intimate sense of narrative and showcased deft craftsmanship with both synth and guitar. The tunes drawn on the atmosphere of Nueen's home island so fits in with what you might call Balearic, but very much on its own terms. They are warm and gentle but underpinned with a melancholy that makes them all the more engaging. 

There is plenty of that on show across the opening of this week's podcast. Roomy arrangements are detailed with only the wispiest of pads but slowly a rhythm begins to emerge. It's dubby and dreamy and transports you out to sea on a sonic life raft that eventually sinks to the ocean floor. From there you roll along on supple drums, wispy pads drift by and shards of light pierce the surface. It is a perfect soundtrack to slowly awaken your soul on a lazy morning.

Long time resident at the infamous Salon des Amateurs in Düsseldorf and the man behind Offen Music, Ivkovic is someone with a particularly unique talent for selecting records and weaving them into a larger – and often unusually compelling – narrative. Ahead of joining us for his 4th Origins show this December to close out the 10 Year series, Vlad is up next for Tapes #81.

As one of the finest selectors of hidden musical gems, he has kept his focus on music, especially the dark and often psychedelic sounds that lurk in its unexplored corners. Whether he’s broadcasting on the radio or piloting the dancefloor, Ivkovic is someone who applies a curatorial mindset and a deep love of music to all of his creative exploits. Yes, he’s a DJ, but he’s so much more than that; he’s a storyteller, a connoisseur and, most importantly, an artist.

For the first show of 2023, Carhartt WIP Radio is welcoming DJ, producer, label founder, and NTS resident @elenacolombi. Colombi’s foray into DJing began over a decade ago, when she moved to London from Italy, and set up a series of successful parties in the city. Her sets became known for their expansive influences and genre-bending rhythms. In 2019, Colombi crystallized her reputation as an eclectic selector by launching her label @osare-editions.
 
Originally founded as a way of reissuing music by Greek artist Thanasis Zlatanos, the label evolved into a platform for daring, experimental, and future-facing releases, rolled out in genres like acid, ambient, coldwave, synth pop, or techno. Osàre! Editions acts include Inkasso and Novo Line from Berlin, Suemori from Tokyo, and L/F/D/M from London.
 
For this Carhartt WIP Radio installment, Colombi created a mix that leans towards the softer and more meditative zones of Osàre! Editions, featuring music of artists like Cucina Povera, Ben Bertrand, or Laurel Halo. As ever, the show is accompanied by an interview with Colombi, who discusses everything from how a stolen cassette tape sparked her curiosity in different sounds to what her favorite tracks are for closing out a party. www.carhartt-wip.com/journal/music

Carhartt WIP Radio January 2023: Elena Colombi Osàre! Editions

Khotin has been a key figure in the developing Electronic music scene emerging from Canada - for over ten years he has been producing and releasing music.

His sound has evolved exponentially, weaving between sounds and styles with cohesive ease of which others might only dream of. His records have found a home somewhere between the heady 90's ambient and trip hop era, deep house and has drawn upon abstract influences from balearic roots, trance and a whirlwind of other other cultural guises.

All of this makes his music remarkably interesting and hard to pin down.

His forthcoming album "Release Spirit" is forthcoming on acclaimed label Ghostly International. It features a collection of ambient soundscapes, tape recordings and off piste samples as Khotin draws inspiration from far reaching influences such as World of Warcraft, train journeys through Europe and Japan, family vacations and beyond.

We asked Khotin to record a mix which reflects a similar nature of the new album - the result is a delicate assortment of textures which lend themselves to a brooding optimism for the year ahead. At least we hope..

WORKSHOP 32 INFO
by Pjotr Jezernitski
Stripped back and bony funk. The residue and distant memories of a party.
Closing your eyes, still not dark. A lighting rig under your lids. A night lasting 20
years, falling asleep with your favourite song on repeat. The deconstructed,
untangled memory lingers in your system. What you hear are the remnants of a
social gathering and its body movements.
KMOS. The fog machines are gone, the free deconstructed thinking laid out bare.
Fourth album. The white noise funk still here, 4 to the floor and gnarly basslines.
The jazz but the tight, the funk but the taut. The austere but the flow. The
instruments, sinuous and intricate. The deconstructed dancefloor. Sawed up bits,
sawed up pieces. The drums the strings the claps the sharpness. Rearranged,
picked apart. organized for a new day. A new idea. A new blueprint. A brave
new clear elusive promise. The love in the strict. The strict but the mess. The strict
but the lie. A promise.
Drifting through a sleepless world. The rent, the eyes, the mirror the scrolling the
daylight, and the gravel in your eyes. Sounds of endless nights long lasting days,
reality and visions, blurred and frazzled. The eavesdropping the neighbour the
conversations the sleep. The fear and the joy and the new that I project onto you.
The loopy sound of sirens. The joy of the sun. The field, the horizon, the light, the
smoke. Xeroxed memories are now our new. The love the dream. The sleep the
wake. The wish the longing. The promise the fear. What once was promised
We will reclaim
