Recordings that feature my music

Ninechecker grew up in a town near Liverpool in the north west of England. He fell in love with heavier styles of music, of which Electro was the favourite flavour. In his late teens he witnessed Dave Clarke destroy dances at Liverpool's beloved Voodoo and Bugged Out! nights and set about making his own Tech/Electro. 
Years later, having settled in Toronto, Canada, after living in London and Berlin, he reassembled his studio and started making his own interpretation of Electro, taking inspiration from field recordings, 90's Jungle, 808 heavy Miami Bass and Trap, Techno, weird, unsettling ambience and dark, doomy electronics to create his own Gutter Electro.
He's been playing live hardware sets around Ontario, and has releases on Varial Records, Zodiac Wax, Supercomputer AV, Orson and forthcoming on Brokntoys.
"Electro seems to always be off to the side of the stage, never in the spotlight. Well, not since its 80's heyday. And maybe that's for the best, cos we create what we create in the shadows. Out of sight. Underground.... and personally, that's how I like it".

Which artists has influenced you the most?

- 1997 Techstep D&B, No U-Turn, Dom & Roland, DJ Krust, Elements OF Noize, Source Direct, early Korn, Deftones, Sepultura, Dave Clarke DJing at Voodoo and Bugged Out! in Liverpool was a huge influence... seismic actually. Early Warp Records. Basic Channel and Chain Reaction, Pole, Anthony Rother. DHR. John Peel's radio show. Liverpool's record shops. 

What new projects/releases with your participation are expected in the near future?

- I’ve just released an EP on Orson records called Generating Coastline which the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive! I'm very happy. Also my I Can't Fight Your programming EP has been re-released by Varial Records too! 
Upcoming, I have a Brokntoys EP coming out at the end of year, which is huge! Hopefully another one on Orson Records too. Plus more stuff on more labels that I can't talk about yet. I also have created a live hardware set that I've been rocking parties here in Ontario. 

Which artists/labels is more relevant to you now?

- There are a bunch of Electro labels that I really admire, in no order; Avoidant, CHP, Mechatronica, Orson, Cyber Domain, Brokntoys, Dionysian Mysteries, No Static Automatic, Fides, Varial, Censor, Science Cult, Gated, PSI49Net, SCSI, Trust, LDI, Devine Disorder, Facecontrol Audio Industries, Specimen, CPU, Dead Channel, Dock 34, Computer Controlled, Zodiac Wax, DVSNME, Bass Agenda. I don't listen to any new D&B or Techno tbh... a few bits and bobs. What's really fizzing my bits is Ben Pest (who is amazing), Bitstream, G Jones, Shokh, Alex Jann, Brice Kelly, Keith & Kevin, Ekata, Siak PHD, Mat Carter, Assembler Code, Piska Power, Danny Daze.... I can't think of them all... Human Rebellion, PTHGN, Aura Nox... is that enough? 

What inspires you now to create music?

- Making music is my main creative output now. I used to paint and draw, I've been an animator too, but music really conquered everything fairly early on. I still do sound design for video games, but music is fully mine. I try to create a vibe for each track that I compose, so it can exist in its own space. They aren't just functional DJ tools, with a beginning, middle and end, but creepy little scenarios. I like to hide things in my tracks. 

What set-up do you use when creating music?

- I have a desk where I can rotate the pieces of kit that I use depending on the type of music that I'm making.. Some notable pieces are my Elektron Octatrack, Digitakt and Syntakt, which I also use for my live shows. A digital Hydrasynth, and analogue Arturia Minibrute2S, RD8 808 clone, the awesome Lyra-8 drone synth, a 303 clone, Tascam 414 4-track tape machine and various pedals all recorded into Ableton on an old Mac. And a Zoom recorder to capture field recordings all over the place which get woven and buried into all my tunes.

Welcome to the end of year round up from Node!
It's been one hell of a year for good music, so here's a selection including bits from all the Gated releases over the year and a load of other amazing tunes. It's not a "best of" per se, just a collection of what we've been listening to over the year that have stood out personally and also fit together pretty nicely for a varied selection of bpms and styles.
Here's to a new year and a podcast schedule that should be back to normal in January.

If you're in London on 11th January you can catch Node playing with good friend Dom (Invisible Menders) down at Next Door Records, Shephard’s Bush, 6pm - 12am for an indulgent session of just good music ;)

Node's end of year roundup '24

Clips of Holy Tongue's "Ambulance" 7"  available to buy at https://dubwisevinyl.com

The mighty Holy Tongue return with their first ever 7" release and I'm pleased to report it's an absolute corker! Atmospheric and brooding A-sider "Ambulance Dub" feels like the mystical union of a deadly under the radar 80's digi-dub with a long lost sci-fi synth soundtrack. Sleng Teng meets Bladerunner Uptown...Flip it over for "The Bigger Tutti" which is classic Holy Tongue at their very best capturing the stripped back DIY energy of post-punk delivered alongside a heavy as lead dub bassline which combines with the characteristically incredible percussion to create a mesmerisingly deep and funky groove. Two complimentary yet contrasting sounds from one of the most exciting purveyors of experimental dub around.

Hilltown Disco (31/1/25)

It starts as a buzzing sound each time I press play. Behind that, there are so many beautiful people who hear something similar. Joy comes from having the opportunity to select it and share it as the ears feel it, with all the equipment we own. So, all the credit goes to the artists who are still rocking that underground sound. - Sekta

FAQ warps into an alien system with Decomposition 28. Based in Leipzig, the longtime DJ and former resident at the legendary IfZ, sizzles with this ominous, offworld mix. As one half of Disposable Time (along with Alice in Flames) he has been a linchpin in the Leipzig scene, throwing some serious parties, cohosting a show on Callshop Radio as well as the eponymous mix series of the same name. Prepare to be transported into another dimension for an hour of fuzzed-out alien acid, broken up gutter electronics, and occult wave that fuse together seamlessly in this tenebrous set.

Decomposition - Fig. 28: FAQ

Just want to express my gratitude to Agnes. The song "Familiar" is one of my favourite songs of all time. It has really helped conduit to my inner feminine and connected 
me on an emotional, somatic and spiritual level for many years. Agnes' musical works
have always been a quite visceral journey for me.
I myself being a drum and bass producer, wanted to encapsulate this feeling of 
deep sentimentality and spin it within the flow of my own creativity. My intention with
music is to create a bridge between the harder grittier aspects of certain genres 
and aggregate the softer more gentle side. Which for me means a symbiotic coalescence of masculine and feminine energies.

Agnes Obel - Familiar (ENLIL Bootleg)

My first release of a 3 album compilation on Diffuse Reality, this one with 7 Acid tracks of different genres. 

My first contact with acid music was on the early stage of my career, It has a huge impact in my influences and I catch myself not releasing my acid tracks, but now some of them are in this very special album!

Release date: 2nd of September 2025
