CONSTRUCTIONS PODCAST

From renegade beginnings throwing bespoke house parties, to kicking off an all-Australian artist DIY record label, the 58th instalment of the Constructions series is guested by Eora-based creative practice and musical duo, FAN CLUB©

“We’ve been close friends for years and FAN CLUB© has always been the creative collaboration between us. Our work focuses on collections of high-quality products exploring the intersections of design, art, and sound”.

As a homage to the many talented musical artists within the Australian bounds, FAN CLUB©’s mix is a tribute to a ‘special and unique sound developed here, in part due to our geographical position and to the diversity of cultures, backgrounds, influences, and creative expressions’. 

Featuring a heady mix of bass, breaks, and tech, rife with remixes and bootlegs - FAN CLUB©’s offering to the Constructions series is an all-genre, all-Australian blend of music from friends, family, and producers they’ve looked up to for many years.

Mind Dance return with the second volume in their ‘Mystic Minds’ VA series. Launched last year as a way to continue the strong collaborative nature of the electronic music underground, each installment will shine a light on local Australian talent and their cross-continental contemporaries. 

Continuing this mission with a new batch of friends, family and former label mates in tow, round two rallies six artists from home soil and overseas for another deep excursion into the vast expanses of dance music.

pi pi pi premiere: Dazion - I Want Take Away (Mind Dance)

Constructions returns for the 60th instalment with an hour-long live sound performance from Japan's Muzan Editions label boss, Endurance.

"In the past few years, I have been lucky enough to open for a lot of techno parties in Japan, and this has had a big impact on my sound as a performer. My live sets used to lean more towards the prettier, new-age side of ambient, but as that doesn't particularly suit dark clubs in Osaka and Tokyo, I have tried to push my sound towards the more minimal and intense regions of ambient.

This is a set from a show I played in Osaka with Peter van Hoesen in November. I remember being terribly nervous while setting up my modular, as PvH was standing right behind me doing a soundcheck (I'm a big fan)! Nevertheless, I think the set went well, setting the tone for the party and the music to come. When I looked up towards the end, the dance floor was nearly full, and people were swaying back and forth with their eyes shut. As someone doing ambient, there's no clearer sign that you're doing something right than that."

Endurance is the ambient project of Osaka-based Joshua Stefane. Using modular synthesizers, field recordings, and cassette tapes, Endurance’s sound has become increasingly minimal and tonally-focused over the years, employing a minimum of elements to create a maximum of expressiveness. In addition to releasing from labels such as Constellation Tatsu and Mystery Circles, Endurance also curates the Japan-based tape label Muzan Editions.

He is part of the organizing team for Moment, a techno festival in Nara. As a live performer, he has appeared at numerous high-profile events such as Star Festival, Moment, and Rural, with an increasing emphasis on bringing deep ambient soundscapes to techno music parties.

“A deep dive into some records that haven't been played for a while - inspired by recently organising them into loose vibes. The majority of this mix came from the spectrum of hypnotic, chugging, or melodic techno sections of my collection.”

Coming through for Constructions 061, Sydney-based DJ and vinyl devotee Jasmine Peters plays a wide range of styles within the techno spectrum, finding a way to weave melodies with hard-hitting industrial sounds.

While heavy bass, twisted rhythms, and hypnotic grooves are the foundations she builds from, she also harbours a deep enthusiasm and finesse for all things weird and wonderful in the downbeat and ambient music realm.

Danielle (Soft Raw Special) w/ Austen on NTS Radio - 7th February 2023 (live from the studio)

Venturing into the world of electronic music in 2008, Reza Putra Ananda, AKA Ecilo is an artist who embodies the endless grind. 

Finding influence in the rhythms of jazz, soul, and blues, as well as the atmospheric resonances of Sci-Fi soundtracks, Ecilo has spent years refining his sound and honing his technique to become a producer who, while being strongly rooted in the foundations of techno, is exceptionally genre-fluid.

With releases on noteworthy labels such as AXIS, ARTS, Planet Rhythm, Olympian, and more, Ecilo has strengthened his reputation as a producer and DJ with his high-energy forays into all things percussion-locked, psychedelic, and unapologetically heavy.

Garnering support from artists such as Ben Sims, Alan Fitzpatrick, Haruka, DJ Nobu, Jeff Mills, Dave Clark, and many more, Ecilo’s consistency in providing expertly curated DJ and live sets have helped to reinvigorate the techno scene in Indonesia, landing him residences at Bali’s highly-regarded Vault Nightclub, and Jakarta’s Kiko Lounge.

Ecilo | Constructions Podcast 062

“This mix is inspired by the vibe at the last few gigs I've played. I've been going deep and trippy lately, and that's exactly what I tried to capture in this mix. Old, new & some unreleased music tied together with lots of layering to keep your mind and body locked in. Thank you for having me. I really enjoyed recording this mix for you guys.”

Heading up Constructions 063 we welcome Goa-based DJ & producer, dotdat.

With various offerings on imprints such as Symbolism, Truncate, Suara, and Observant, dotdat eschews convention with his own brand of spaced-out, cerebral, and percussive techno.

Though putting himself forth as a producer first and a DJ second, his mixing skills are adept. With performances at festivals and venues such as ADE (Amsterdam), Womb (Tokyo), Sonar (Barcelona), and Watergate (Berlin), his genre-bending sets traverse the lines between deep, hypnotic grooves and high-octane rollers.

Steadily building an expansive reach since he came onto the scene, his releases have made regular appearances in the sets of mainstays such as DVS1, Ben Sims, Truncate, DJ Stingray &
many more.

Dotdat’s dedication and persistence have led to international collaborations with Truncate and Benjamin Damage, with his EP with Truncate, ‘HYD,’ still making waves on the dance floor today.

“This is a heady bass mix with emotional bits at the start and percussive, wavy, heavily distorted dubstep towards the end. It takes a few twists and turns but has an overall air of melancholy and unease. I like the darkness; there is a lot to unpack - why do I feel these emotions when I hear these sounds? What inside me is reflected in this? 

There are elements of horror and suspense, it's cathartic to create soundscapes through mixing and song selection. I can externalise my inner world and deepest unknowns. I hope the music that I play can provoke curiosity and induce deep listening. I like a loftiness, patience, and sense of space that reminds me of the deep sea or the ever-expanding universe, and I hope that translates."

Constructions 064 welcomes Hong Kong born, Eora-based DJ, producer, and promoter, Jungist. 
Known for their "Generalist-specialist" approach to DJing, Jungist’s sonic palette is broad and deep, often finding themselves equally at home spinning chill-out dub in wine bars as laying down tear-out amens in distant industrial lots.

A champion of the rave, Jungist has played in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Hong Kong, and Taiwan and has shared lineups with international heavyweights such as Air Max 97’, Loefah, Goth-Trad, and RSD, to name a few. 

They hold a residency at FBi Radio with their show "Variable Depth Audit," which guides listeners through “bass-wise experiments for the city's comedown needs.”

As a co-founder and curator of Decay Audio, Jungist offers a platform for artists to take on a dark and experimental aesthetic with their events and mix series – boosting the local scene while also taking aim at bolstering international sounds.

With their debut release, “Dark Room,” featured on the Bass Water Freak Out compilation, Jungist has since released on Melbourne-based label Back Pocket Slammers and under the collaborative moniker 'Swungist' with Sydney-based artist Swisherman.
