Welcome to part 7 of the FMB DIsccord mix series. For this episode, we have Discotechnological gracing the decks: 

Hello everyone, I’m Nathan and I go by discotechnological online. By day, I’m a UX/UI designer based near London and I am happiest when I’m making things, whether that’s websites or apps, photography and design, Lego models, building things around my house, and more recently, music - which I release as Singer and the Instruments. 

Like many people I’m sure, I first got into Bicep around the time Glue came out and after picking up the debut album I was hooked and went digging through their back catalogue to find all those other gems. After that I watched a couple of the shows on YouTube and then the 6Music festival during lockdown when Isles came out, but it was the Glasto ’22 set that convinced me that I had get out and see them for real, so I got tickets for Ally Pally and loved every second of it. It was the best gig I’ve ever been to - until Chroma in the Park last year.

For my mix I wanted to showcase some of the great artists and tunes recommended by the community - and some made by them too - alongside some of my fave classics going back as far as the 90’s (yes, I’m that old!). I’m glad I was allowed to include my PULSAR remix as it was such an treat to be able to work with the amazing stems provided for the competition, but more importantly I felt that it was such a fantastic experience sharing our work with each other - getting incredible and valuable feedback and tips from the talented people in the Bicep discord community.  The mix itself is a bit different from previous entries in the series as I’m more of a blender. I like finding those intros and outros that work well with each other and just letting them roll. It takes in some techno, some breaks, a bit of house and trance, plus a surprising amount of acid, culminating in a visit to the chill out room (do they even exist any more?) and a sneaky discord-exclusive from the lads.

Hope you all enjoy it and maybe discover something nice that you’ve never heard before.

FMB DISCORD MIXTAPE 007 | Discotechnological

The idea behind the mixtape was to treat dubby and percussive sounds as a kind of palette rather than anchoring myself to a specific genre. I’ve always had quite an eclectic taste, and my sets have naturally reflected that. After having been quite chaotically genre-fluid since I started DJing, I feel as though I am finally finding my own sound, where there’s plenty of room for fluidity but feels much more intentional and personal to me.

I wanted the mix to act almost like an ID or self-portrait, pulling together the styles I gravitate towards most at the moment. It’s an introspective recalibration of my sound and intent, merging deep sub-bass with forward-thinking, deconstructed styles that prompt both movement and reflection. There’s a strong emphasis on hypnotic, percussive, dubbed-out cuts, playing with tension and release, and navigating the line between moody and fun.

I felt brave enough to push myself out of my comfort zone and attempt a polyrhythmic transition where I blend a chuggy 3 bar loop at 110 BPM with a 4/4 dubstep track at 146 BPM. I also threw a 3 deck mix in there just for good measure :P It was a bit of a workout but worth the sweat!

I’ve also recently been quite fascinated in how dubstep is being reimagined, which allows a broader palette of sounds to feel at home within its framework. I tried to reflect that by including influences from outside traditional club genres that still feel very relevant to my sound.

In a nutshell, the mix is an appreciation of dubwise textures, UK soundsystem culture and global club and percussive sounds, tied together by a lot of introspection which should hopefully invite people to dance and also listen.
