I thoroughly enjoyed that little in-between-lockdowns-breather. I got all my clubbing done for the winter, ready to lock it in and dance in my basement for a few months. This will help.

Enregistrement de la soirée Épicentre 28/09/24. Merci tout le monde.

C'est un set de soirée. Faut pas chercher les erreurs, y'en a.

Pour l'histoire, au début j'essayais d'attraper les gens.
Donc ça part dans tous les sens.
Jusqu'à Plastic Dreams qui les a tous mis d'accord.
Et comme ils avaient résonné sur la partie un peu hard au début...
Une fois que je les ai tenus, on est parti techno.

Epicentre Mix

Quitte à s'en mettre une, autant en profiter.

I couldn't sleep last night. So I discovered the joys of overdriving repitching delays...

time well wasted (dj set)

We jammed and jammed and jammed with Jay-Dee ( @jaydee-the-black-sheep ). But I ended up looping just one bar of his piano. Then I processed the shit out of it.

I felt a little down the other day. So I made music. Deep house seemed like the way to go.

I saw Paul Sullivan's photo (https://www.facebook.com/PaulSullivanPhotography/) and it stuck to me. So for once this is not a track about my ex girlfriend, despite the picture's title: "clumsy twat". 
Instead, the strangely square motif of the coffee stain playing against the underlying pattern spoke to me. What it said I could only transcribe as you hear it.

The nice lady will show you how it's done...
This track started with the vocal sample, and kind of got out of hand from there once I brought the monotribe in.

I wanted to understand the whole loops vs goat herding debate, so I made a track out of samples only. Well I had a lot of fun. And after all is said and done, it makes me want to dance, so what the hell ?

And for those who can't seem to understand the jamaican accent : 
Ask me question,
I'll tell you no lies.
Ask me no questions and I'll
play music.

axe me not

it's always a good exercise trying to mix one's own tracks with the standards that inspired them. It's not always easy, but it gives a fresh perspective. This mix puts the two tracks of the "house + house = house" EP in context. And it has that distinctive smell of summer.

Tracklist:
Extra Medium - 5 string swing
Soulphiction - everytime
Guti Dubshape - every cow has a bird
Suburban Boyz - insane
The Cheapers - shithole
Chuck Prudence - axe me not
The Knight Club - palm beat
Gesloten Cirkel - gesloten cirkel
Mézigue - du son pour les gars sûrs
Chuck Prudence - cyclopedic
Floorplan - never grow old (replant mix)
Impulsion - the trip
Unknown Artist - 303.001
Willie Burns - waste your time
Alva - downtown
Earl & Kofi - sure thing
DJ Pierre - get your buzz on

house + house mix

I stumbled upon a bassline I really liked while faffing around with delays. It reminded me of dexter, so I built a track around it.

wala les morceaux que j'avais dans la tête en rentrant de Berlinie

berlin is wonderfool

I try to make beauty, and make it loud.

Welcome to outsider techno: Chuck Prudence is a clubber but he grew up with rock'n'roll and punk.

When he came to Paris he discovered the hypnotic joy of dancing all night long to minimal techno, and wanted to push the polymer himself. 
He started in vernissages (like pimp my vinyl) providing deep grooves for his friends exhibitions and naturally carried on to later parts of the nights, bringing everybody swinging along. 
After scouting the world for the best records to feed his beloved turntables, he moved to Berlin for a couple of years where he played in many clubs (like the tresor) and now lives in Toulouse, working on his own productions. His sound is not mainstream but his sharp taste and a fondness for long, genre-crossing sets make for nights to remember.
