The presence of a new dark vortex is confirmed on the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun. Lost Trax lead us to the heavy heart of Neptune’s Great Dark Spot for the one year anniversary of Neptunian Influence Podcast. 

An anonymous collective of artists, Lost Trax create raw, emotive music in the forms of deep and infectious electro, acid and techno. While the producers have their individual projects, they join forces to make a ‘Lost Track’ when inspiration strikes. “Combining acidic twisted basslines with tight Detroit electro elements,” Lost Trax consider early Detroit Techno to be a major influence in their sound. 

Since 2006, Lost Trax have released nine Singles and EPs on respected labels such as @tabernacle-records, @shipwrec and @frustratedfunk. The Saturnian System / The Sequel, recently issued on the celebrated @delsinrecords, represents a solid retrospective of the collective’s earlier work that appeared on various releases between 2006 and 2010. Lost Trax return to Delsin this spring with a new EP.  

While Lost Trax prefer to keep their identities in the shadows, they’ve performed across Europe and recently headlined @tresorberlin with a live performance. Notably, they also performed at @mosaique-space in Saint Petersburg, Russia on New Year’s Eve 2017. It goes without saying, we hope to see Lost Trax on the West Coast sooner than later!

I am so honored and excited to share a mix by one of my favorite electro acts, Lost Trax. I first learned about the mysterious producers a few years ago when I became infatuated with the opening track in an @Alienata DJ set. After some researching, I learned it was "The Saturnian System" by Lost Trax and I've been a huge fan ever since! -Whipnotiq <3

Neptunian Influence Podcast, Twenty-Three | Featuring @whipnotiq

Neptunian Influence is celebrating two years since inception and I’m feeling cheerful about the past, present and future of this mission. I’m honored to host the incredible, heartfelt transmissions that we have so far, contributed by some of the most talented DJs and producers in the realm. The future looks *bright* (within dark vortices) as we are about to launch the official Neptunian Influence website and announce the third annual Neptunian Influence brunch during Movement in Detroit. Other endeavors include brining Neptunian Influence to local FM airwaves and a collaborative monthly residency in Long Beach, California. As for the podcast, we have some very fine musically-inclined individuals lined up to deliver mixes in the months to come. You won’t be disappointed! 

Here is Neptunian Influence’s two-year transmission made with love, passion and compassion by yours truly. Take one was smoother, but take two was riskier, so naturally I went with take two :) I’m definitely enjoying my new Ortofon needles. I’ve been trying not to buy records lately, only because I can’t really afford them, but I couldn’t resist buying the record that I open with, “Da Sacred Symbols Of Sun And Moon” by Solomon Angelo. It is wildly, out-of-this-world good and I highly recommend. Most of the other tracks come from my favorite records of last year. All of the tracks are very special for various reasons: the feelings they vitalize; who made them; the record labels they were released on; where they were found; how they were acquired; their song meanings; their song titles. I live by the words of DJ Maaco’s “I’m In My Lane,” I dream to the sounds of “When U Wish Upon A *” by Solomon Angelo, and I worry about the future of the planet...cue “141 Gates” by DJ Overdose. I play my very favorite James Shinra track which I’ve been saving up for a couple years, and my last track is from an absolute treasure of a series by Tony Allen & Africa 70. 

Symphonic jazz fest meets cyber funk fest in the cosmos. Meet you in the Great Dark Spot. 

Love, 
Whipnotiq

Neptunian Influence Podcast, Thirty-Three | Featuring @214_electro

To celebrate three years of Neptunian Influence, we are delighted to present a mix by an electro hero, 214. Hailing from the majestic North Bend, located outside of Seattle and treasured for being the filming location of Twin Peaks, 214’s home has been the inspiration for many of his timeless pieces of music, which in turn have influenced electro lovers around the world. The snowscape transmission that he’s provided for Neptunian Influence seems to transport you to his daily surroundings - only before an inevitable trip to outer space :)

With two full-length albums and over a dozen singles and EPs under his belt, 214’s most recent release is ‘Rex And Shuffle’ on Steffi’s @klakson-records. In March, watch out for his ‘Si View EP’ being released via Sync 24’s @cultivated-electronics. 

This mix also serves as the second part in a series highlighting artists from the Pacific Northwest. Part one was delivered by @tufseattle’s @livwutang, who recently performed alongside 214 and @dbridge_exitrecords at Seattle’s @kremwerk. 

We are incredibly honored to host a mix by one of our absolute favorite music makers. So press play to celebrate three years of NIP on 2-14 day. Oh yeah, and don’t forget to wish 214 a happy birthday, too!
