SNAP TO IT!

I just found out my remix of Tevo Howard's "Boing Pop" has been included - without my approval - on the Hed Kandi Beach House 2014 compilation. I usually feel honoured when my music is selected for these types of things but I mean Hed Kandi is this total horror-conglomerate that uses retarded imagery drawn straight from the sexual fantasies of horny twelve year old boys to pimp a very sad idea of house music to the masses, so this time I just feel depressed. What's worse is that the owner of Rebirth (the label who originally released my remix) edited the track - again without my approval - into something shorter and clumsier, completely fucking up the flow of the music. Please don't support this bullshit - if you like the tune, you can now download it (the real version) from my Soundcloud page, free of charge. Enjoy!

Tour-Maubourg Ensemble - Stay (Tour-Maubourg's Extended Dub)

In a world where AI seems to take over everything, this show recycles / revisits musical experiments from the now 30-year-old zzz.ch website.
I feed fragments of past compositions into AI to generate, remix, and reinterpret them as an infinite stream of slop. I also reverse-play the process, shaping outputs by hand.
As the machine shifts through styles with only a partial grasp of the original, it may offer a glimpse into how we can engage this inevitable technology in a more sensuous and playful way. slop.is

This one’s called “Cerveza Es Bueno” 🍻
Don’t ask me how good my Spanish is — the beat speaks better than I do 😅
An Afro House journey inspired by the Community vibe.

What's Your Number (Jazzanova Re-Number)

Lyon beatsmith Saint Paul made an impressive full debut in 2017 with his Introspection EP on Moonrise Hill Material (which he co-runs with his boys Folamour, Ethyène and Kaffe Crème). After tasty contributions to V/As on the likes of Apparel Wax and FHUO, the Frenchman is back with another solo record on DC’s Better Listen Records.

The Naturist Behavior EP is a tastefully balanced, warm-weather oriented four tracker. The title track and the A2, “A Hawaiian Trip”, explore playful and jazzy territories. Meanwhile, the flip hosts moodier ventures via the bittersweet boogie of “Tell Me” and the ice cold late night jam, “Feels Good”.

HOTWAX // DJ Ciderman - Get Loose

Naarm/Melbourne-based Close Counters’ diverse soundscape sits at the crossroads of house, neo-soul, broken beat and disco. Their 2023 Music Victoria Award-winning album, ‘SOULACOASTA II’ secured their spot as one of the top talents in their class, with the duo tirelessly sourcing niche samples from films and records on trips across the globe. The LP was touted by tastemakers Gilles Peterson, Folamour, Jamz Supernova and landed Album Features with Australian stations Double J, 3RRR, PBS and 2SER. Breakout singles from the pack were originally released by Melvo Baptiste’s The Remedy Project, an imprint of Defected Records.

Their collab 'Rollout' with Young Franco, Scrufizzer and Jay Prince, won over fans across the globe and was added to the Official Soundtrack for acclaimed video game FIFA 23, and have been synced for Apple’s recent iPhone campaign. In the past year the band have also performed for triple j, 3RRR, Defected Radio, FBi Radio, Soho Radio NYC, Baked, and interviewed on BBC Radio 1Xtra on tour recently, and when hotly tipped as their ‘After Dark Discovery’ and ‘EP of the Week’ (‘FLUX’, 2022).

The duo expands up to a 7-piece tour-de-force with live-mapped visuals, dancers and featured musicians and vocalists from their wider collective and they’ve continuously sold out their hometown Naarm/Melbourne dates, notching impressive shows at Sidney Myer Music Bowl, sold out dates at 170 Russell, Corner Hotel, The Night Cat, and packed-out rooms across Australia’s east coast. Support duties have flowed from Madlib, Sofi Tukker, Crazy P Soundsystem, Tall Black Guy, to local mates Confidence Man and The Jungle Giants, betwixt bucket-list festivals Splendour in the Grass, Falls Festival, Let Them Eat Cake, Strawberry Fields, Meredith Music Festival, MONA FOMA, Party in the Paddock and showcasing at BIGSOUND, Electronic Music Conference and three sold-out Melbourne Music Week events.

The band recently finished their UK & EU summer ticking off Lost Village Festival, Manchester Jazz Festival, Defected Malta and Cabaret Sauvage. In London, they sold Ronnie Scott's, did 180 tickets at Ninety One Living Room, packed out Hootananny Brixton and landed a sold out Jazz Café support for Somewhere Soul's showcase with Cotonete. The band have also played packed sets in Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Monaco, Brighton and featured behind the decks at ADE, Defected Croatia, Reflektor in Belgium with A-Trak, and are returning for Brick Lane Jazz Festival in April 2025.
