PODCAST MARS O10C

Mars O10C rejoint l’agence et nous propose un peu plus d’une heure et demi de set pour découvrir sa galaxie musicale 💫

Au menu de ce podcast : de la house aux sonorités acid, des lignes de basse entraînantes pour le groove, une petite dose de rythmes breakés, et un ingrédient spécial un brin trancy ! 

On espère que ça vous plaira et vous donnera envie de l’écouter à l’occasion de ses prochains gigs !

"I just mixed some of the records which are most inspiring to my at the moment. A few of them I also played at the tiny but lovely „Oh wie Schön“ Festival last year. In this manner the mix is dedicated to the people who were part of it."

2021 was an amazing year for us at Musty Head Records, and by Christ are we ready to step it up a gear in 2022. 

Keeping true to Musty tradition, we are kicking things off by championing a man with a very bright future ahead of himself. 

Harry Cochran aka Hazr, has been making waves since he set up the Magic Carpet label a couple of years ago with fellow Co-Pilot Sam Applebee. 

Releases from artists such as DJ Void, Planar Traits, Ramu and Baby Rollen have become stalwarts in a steady number of sets and mixes, with Joe Delon showing his fellow Portuguese neighbours a serious amount of support and love, as he took to the decks in Lisbon’s Lux Frágil Club for Magic Carpet’s first event. No doubt, this one went off!!

We’ve been sitting on this mix for a while now, but having finally met Harry at the Lion and Lamb in London last month, it only felt right we open up the new year with this one. 

Pleasure to have you on Sir, and stay locked in on this one guys – big things to come from Harry and Magic Carpet this year!

After many months of closure, fate smiled upon us this past New Year’s when Paquita Gordon (Italian vinyl-cognoscente and Terraforma resident) paid us a visit to dust off the cobwebs at Horoom. An avid explorer, in her travels as much as her bringing together of like-minded musicians for experimentations in sound, there’s a freedom in her craft. For this, the last hour of her set, she channels this libertine energy with the type of fun, high-octane amalgam of sounds she’s come to be known for. Move your body to the beat and forget your woes with Bassiani Podcast 110.

An artist that has been continously growing within the underground electronic circuits over a number of years.

Now pushing more tech and prog inspired house music under this alias and delightfully sharing his track 'Space Cadet' with us for the latest ToneShift compilation, it's apparent even more so that Paperkraft is a true talent capable of producing top quality in any style they explore.

Landing in for a much welcomed instalment to the CommaCast Series, L Daze (she/her) brings the psychedelic goodness for episode 78.
Starting her journey behind the booth in Birmingham via collective Selextorhood, now based in London, L Daze has been shelling out masterful recent sets for prestigious names such as Goddezz, Aquatic Formations, Whomp and Rhythm Section. Drawing inspiration from the 90's / early 00's trance and prog era, this talented selector combines old-school hypnotic sounds with the paced up state of modern dance floors. This hour long mix for us represents just a taste of the sheer class L Daze has when it comes to crafting absorbing story telling through tripped out grooves and mind melting sonic atmospheres. Superb stuff!

Episode 80 has landed! Welcoming to the Comma family a quickly rising name within the London circuit going by the name of Julia SC.

Midlands-raised, SE-London-based Julia SC's taste for melodically tripped out euphoric dance music was shaped in Leeds when serving as an Editor for the (now defunct) Flux blog - the much loved House and Techno event, and label. Now making a rapidly growing presence for herself within the London trance and prog scene, Julia has graced us with a delicately crafted mix that paints a sunkissed hug in the form of vintage deeply dug electro, breakbeat, trance and prog. What's so distinctive about this mix is how much it showcases an individual sound for this absolute talent of a selector and how we are held in a space of complete escapism from the first track to the last. 

Thank you Julia for providing us with this hour of tripped-out bliss!

[ZORA002] Loop Exposure - Manger Bouger EP | Inc. TC Studio remix

A1 - Mmmh - Excel Mans (Snippet)

CAIRN -- a full length LP in collaboration with electronic producer Keith Sweaty -- a collection of beat driven tracks, analogue synths, acoustic piano and a wealth of vocals and lyrics by Trevor Oswalt a.k.a. East Forest. 

The timing of Cairn coincided with a time of deep personal change for Oswalt as he left a long-term relationship of many years and found himself in unexpected emotional depths. You can hear in the lyrics of Cairn a highly personal and honest dive into the world of loss and individual choice. With the added rhymes by Scarub of Living Legends, trumpet by Brad Lee of The Album Leaf, the analogue synths of Lorna Dune, along with stings by the ‘Bizarre Star Strings’ trio (Band of Horses, My Morning Jacket, Joanna Newsom) as well as Thacher Schmid (Emancipator), Cairn transformed into a grooved out electro-acoustic experience that is as simultaneously booty shaking as it is genuinely introspective -- both a personal and societal call to arms exploring contradictory truths such as destiny, choice, and personal responsibility, all against the backdrop of a civilization undergoing fundamental transition and transformation.
