Johannes Albert, known for the hit-releasing label Frank Music kicks off this mix series, that invites its guests to present their influences, inspiration or anything else that’s interesting to them. The only condition is, that it shouldn’t be a typical club mix consisting of dance music only. 

Dive into some inspiration by the man dropping disco edits, ambient tapes, 80s inspired hits, acid, remixes and more. His Ambient LP „Spessart“ will be out on vinyl in october, another EP from Kayroy is in the making and 10 years of Frank Music will definitely be surprising too.

David Georgos is known for various names and genres. Appearing as Memum with his soft, calming ambient sounds doesn‘t mean he‘s not also up for trippy acid tracks released under the name of VtotheD, a project he does together with Benedikt Frey. He also plays keys and creates atmospheres in the dream pop band Foundling, a project led by Erin Lang. Responsible for the mastering of the latest releases on Constant Change it is interesting to have an insight into his listening habits as well. Sit back and dive into this meditative journey through organic sounds and deep spheres.

A mix decidedly not primed for the dancefloor? Ok! So what’s special about this contribution for Constant Change? I love inviting friends, hosting and cooking for them. In our living-kitchen area, we have a single turntable, where we play records through their visit, randomly selected including characteristic record crackling. So you can understand this as an short invitation to my living room, including a welcome drink, uplifting tunes for the main course and one for the road to let you know it’s time to go.

Philipp Schultheis - What are you listening to?

I tried to showcase some old and newly discovered favorites that I’ve recently been listening to at home:

Malcolm McLaren – Obatala
McLaren is famous for his involvement with the Sex Pistols and creating the look of Punk. Strangely enough, this piece of imaginary ambient-folklore or whatever you want to call it serves as the opener of the same LP that contains his HipHop-hit Buffalo Girls.

Myrna Hague – New World
Myrna is the only Jazz singer I know of who released on Studio One Records. Be sure to check out her track What about me. If you have her LP Melody Life for sale, hit me up.

Freeway – Umlazi
I picked this up some years ago and forgot about it because the LP as a whole is not that great but this track alone is why it’s worth keeping.

Chico Hamilton – Conquistadores
Bought this one as a 45 on Impulse! Records because I had heard it was a Mod-Classic and as a 20-year-old that’s what I was aspiring to be. All records that Chico made with hungarian guitarist Gabor Szabo are great and I always keep revisiting them.

Julian Lage – Saint Rose
No relation to Klaus Lage afaik. A good friend played this 2021 record for me on a long drive and it instantly resonated with me.

King Crimson - Peoria
Prog is something to always be careful about but I’m a dad now, so my King Crimson records are now legitimized well beyond Robert Fripp’s genius.

Showbiz & AG – Hold Ya Head
Unfortunately -8% is as close as I can get to chopped-and-screwed.

The Gun Club – Mother of Earth
One of my favourite tracks by one of my alltime favourite bands. A steady companion for almost 20 years now.

Brian Eno – Here come the warm Jets
Without a doubt one of the most creative and innovative artists of the 20th century. The singing at the end of the track is especially great.

B-52s – Dirty Back Road
A fun little track.

Burial – Shadow Paradise
This 2022 Burial EP might be as close as I can get to reaching enlightenment.

Round Five feat. Tikiman – Na Fe Throw It
Pure bliss. Like receiving a head massage from Moritz von Oswald.

When I was asked to contribute a mix to this series I immediately thought of creating a selection straight out of my younger indie mind that shaped my overall taste in music and still finds its place in the sound and sets that I play. But there are also some recently discovered house and electro tracks that give me goosebumps over and over again. The final result is a little journey through my inner world with a very personal touch, ending with one of my absolute favorite hits from the 90s, which I used to sing along to in my mother's car when I was a little girl. 

Lean back, enjoy the ride and let yourself float away in the vibes of Goldie Palm.

The mix was made on a thurdsay afternoon in no time and is pretty honest. I took some LPs we actually listen to a lot (Joy Orbison, Erykah Badu, FKA Twigs, Jack J, Isa Gordon, Andras) and added a few current 12 inches. A mix of Indie Pop, R&B, smooth analogue House, leftfield Electronica and discoish stuff is what you get.

Music helps to get through the days. There are always tracks that accompany you. They take you to different places and they tell stories about love, life, joy, pain and everything in between. I want to present you some of my favorite tracks that exists between the days. Between the daily business, between your work, between the parties, between the struggle of everyday life. Seat back and relax. Enjoy one hour of deep and groovy music.

The mix represents a variety of italian cosmic classics with nower days slow tempo electronic bangers and shows the origin of my passion for electronic music. It covers 70s and 80s electronic music e.g. from Logic System, Peru or Koto often played by the italian DJ grand masters like Danielle Baldelli mixed with sounds mainly from the DEEWEE sphere. The tracks are full of synthy sounds and clashes on slow tempo around 100bpm. Starting with an incredible track from Bolis Pupul - Moon Theme, catching up exactly the vibe of those days. Enjoy the Ride.

Starting with a deep dive alongside whales who will sing for you, you’ll find yourself getting an instruction on how to become a more passionate lover shortly after. If you hear voices - pay attention. They might have something interesting to tell. If you don’t - just nod your head. Keeping it in the 80s and 90s I decided to mix some of my favorite hip hop, dub, downtempo and synth-pop records in this contribution. Enjoy!

With this Mix I’m showing you a glimpse of my musical preferences.

Each song carries personal memories and some more or less have a special place in my heart.

Tenisa - What are you listening to?

What I’ve always been listening to: I come from Rock music. Psychedelic, Indie, Postrock - anything a little trippy really. It always had to be tripped out for me. When I start closing my eyes to the music, that’s when it’s really touching me. There is so much good stuff out there and I often get excited thinking about all the songs I still have to discover, how many beautiful soul-touching tracks will be written by someone who is now a kid sitting in their bedroom dreaming about making their own music someday - it’s the most magical thing we have and it touches me deeply. I have always collected music. Before the algorithms were tailored „to our needs“, we would end up in hour-long YouTube loopholes and find the weirdest shit. We all remember our teenage years and most of us agree - they were a bit shit. But the music, it made everything so much more bearable. In this mix, I have included some of the tracks I would dream to as a kid, but also newer music I dug out that totally matches that sound. Because good music will never die, people will never stop making it. We now have endless possibilities to discover it, so you have to really listen and look out for it, but it’s there and it’s fresh. Put in the effort, let the past inspire you and make something out of the present <3 

P.S. That little frog gliding through space was shot by me in 2010 when I was in my indie teen SLR camera prime - I hope you float around like her listening to this :)

Valeria - What are you listening to?

The beginning of my musical journey was an attempt to find direction, even in the process of growing up and to sort emotions. The opportunity to empower oneself, to break free, or to lose oneself is still the aim of my music consumption today. I believe that this is something deeply normal (?) However, my favourite kind of music is embracing, preferably with orchestral elements, which I would describe with a certain grandeur. That means, while listening, the attempt is made to detach oneself from all the adversities and lows of life - to look at oneself and the chaos of life from a distance.

Fraiser - What are you listening to?

For this mix I dug into my collection and tried to include some laid back tracks I love and usually don’t get to play when djing (i.e. the opening track by Shigeto. Absolutely in love with the whole album for many years) and combined them with some recently discovered disco & house (i.e. plz check out John Manhard), a pinch of indie sounds and other things I (re)discovered on my way through my record collection and felt right at the moment. 

One of the first things I remember when thinking about me and music is very little me listening to Elvis Presley in front of my parents hifi system in the living room for hours. With short excursions into hip hop I later got hooked to Punkrock & Indie music, playing bass guitar in bands for several years. I have always been most attracted to the rhythm section and funky stuff and as a former bass player basically everything with a groovy bassline still gets me going.

After moving to Mannheim more than 10 years I discovered clubbing, got more and more into electronic music and eventually started djing mainly (but not only) disco and house music, which has become an addiction to which I devote as much time as possible. 

I hope you enjoy the mix and it accompanies you smoothly into the new year. Thank you for listening.

When Jakob asked me: "Philipp, what are you listening to right now?" I realized that I've been really into German-language sounds lately. Guitar sounds as well as electronic and whether it's new stuff or tracks that are over 40 years old. So here's a little deep dive into my "record box" filled mainly with underground psychedelic and electronic rock/punk stuff sung in German. Viel Spaß!

Edwin - What are you listening to?

Constant Change asked me what i currently listen to. so i put together a home listening mix. the vibe is inspired by a calm day sometime between the end of winter and the beginning of spring. it has melancholic hints but also the optimism of sunlight shining through the windows again. 

i tried to find a common thread between songs that come from very different times and cultural backgrounds. so you will hear japanese ambient from 1982, drum n bass from 2022 that became a tiktok hit, italian hiphop from 2007 i discovered through a playlist by @youngerthanme or reggae by carl dawkins from 1977 next to the new single by lil yachty. i included music from england, iceland, malaysia, the united states, ireland, latvia, japan, jamaica, france, italy, the netherlands and sweden. 

seeing how good music from very different contexts goes together once again showed me that lots of stuff i listen to actually has its roots in or draws its inspiration from cultures and artists i will never know it did and that often never got the credit they deserved. so this is a little thank you to those people. i hope you enjoy the music as much as i do.

Inspektor Lenny - What are you listening to?

Well, what is this? Simply said, this mix is a blend of ambient and downbeat music that is supposed to be both soothing and challenging. Listening back, it feels like diving deep into a fluorescent, sparkling abyss. 

I'm a fan of static and otherworldly drones and soundscapes. And so I've included key tracks from artists such as Bohren & Der Club Of Gore, The Necks, Madlib’s self-centred super group Yesterdays New Quintet and the great Jan Jelinek, among many others.

My taste of music has a wide range of different genres. Music helps me handling the world. It brings me back on track in dark times. Melancholic, atmospheric, dark but cheerful at the same time, maybe a bit ambivalent. Hope listening to this selection will make you as happy as it makes me in a way.

Closing out 2024 with a special mix featuring my favorite tracks of the year. It’s a journey through the sounds that shaped my year as a dj and producer - blending timeless disco gems, fresh house records, and everything in between. The mix includes tracks by me, releases from my label Zissou Records, and music by friends who continue to inspire me.

Many of these tracks were the soundtrack to my gigs this year, and a lot of them also influenced my own productions in 2024. It’s a little reflection and a lot of groove. Enjoy the ride!

David Bay - What are you listening to?

Frederik Neu - What are you listening to?

I tried to combine a lot of tracks which are connected with memories or influenced me in my musical development. Therefore the mix got very personal for me. It’s a mix of music which I would call experimental, electro pop and some house, so I stayed in electronic genres which was not intended when I started my research.

I really wanted to stick to the idea of this series and don’t have a focus on club music, still there are a few tracks which could be played in a club but in general this is all listening music to me. 

In this mix the connections between single tracks were not my focus, although I tried to sort them in a way which made sense for me. A really important part of DJing in general for me is to catch the vibe of the moment and of course this is not possible with a pre selected sequence of tracks. So I would call this more a collection of tracks which have a big emotional value for me than a real DJ Mix.

I‘m super happy about the opportunity to actively occupy myself with my musical background. Of course I‘m listening to a lot more genres in my free time but this would go beyond the scope for this mix.

Felice - What are you listening to?

As I've been listening to a lot of old trip hop recently as well as everything that was probably played on the “chill out floor” in the 90s, this is also reflected in the mix. My love for “spaced out dubs” and cheesy vocals can't be hidden either.

DJ Asthma - What are you listening to?

What do I listen to? A lot. It was hard to decide what music to play.  At first I thought about recording a set full of rock music that I like - but then I settled on something I would call trip hop (partly).  Music I like to listen to in the background, music that gets me through the day. Music I pretty much always enjoy listening to, so hopefully you will too! Greetz, DJ Asthma.

Bacon Bene - What are you listening to?

Hey, what am I listening to? Usually, the answer is straightforward: good music, obviously! :-)

To show you something diﬀerent than I would play at a party or club I combined my love for playing drums and provide a collection of tracks carefully selected for your listening pleasure. This set is something I personally created for myself to play along with my drums and everyone who like to play along some tracks as well. If drumming isn't your thing, don't worry: I listened back to this on my bicycle, skateboard and while cooking some tasty pasta. Fortunately that works as well!

So in short this soundtrack is not only curated to showcase my musical taste but also to introduce you some tunes you maybe didn’t know with a lovely focus on drums. Hope you like it and thanks for the invite! 

Hugs and love, Bacon Bene

This set carries my roots and shows where I’m going. Shaped by African rhythms, jazz influences and spiritual elements, it drifts between softness and movement, grounded and free.

Playing a more experimental set was refreshing, as it let me explore new sides of my sound and finally do something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. It’s my personal journey – a way of finding hope in becoming whole. Maybe it finds someone out there who needs that, too.
