Truancy Volume 300: Verraco

Among the processes of building spaces of refuge and consciousness, ORÍ was born, establishing the debut of KONTRONATURA through MAMBAREC as his first EP released.
Orí is our head Orixá, our essence. It is what connects us with our individuality, with our unconscious in a powerful and absolute way. To know Orí is also to understand possibilities of existing beyond place or context, this displacement materializes in IKU (DEATH) and BIYI (BORN HERE), ending with BIYI's RHR Dub Remix sealing the release.
The album delivers rhythms marked by accelerations and restlessness mixed with guetto sounds. ORI EP is the demarcation of a transitional territoriality, a personal Quilombo manifested in frequency.

@Moopie joins us for the mix series this week. Beijing-born, Melbourne-based, the A Colourful Storm label founder and NTS Radio resident has fast become one of dance music's most hotly tipped DJ's. Recent b2b's with the likes of Helena Hauff and Ben UFO attest to his serious pedigree. For DIM 296, we find Moopie in groovy form, running an array of lush house and breaks over 65-minutes.

T4T LUV NRG is about to rock your stereo this spring with a sequel to the label’s first release “Raving Disco Breaks Vol. I” (2018). Eris Drew wanted to create a new sound for the second volume of her acclaimed mixtape series instead of simply retracing the pure disco vibes of the original. Setting her sights and intentions on creating a rock ‘n’ roll infected house mix, Eris worked on building crates for the last five years, finally reaching an inflection point—a moment of concrescence—when she was ready to put the needle on the records and let the beats flow. “Rock The House” was born, a concept for Volume II built from musical fragments, memories, and synchronicities. There are no classic Big Beat tunes on Volume II, instead Eris kicks out the jams for this mix with non-stop house and breaks cuts featuring plenty of rockin’ vocal vamps, as well as the likes of Janis Jopin, Joe Strummer, Ramones, and Led Zeppelin—all sampled, scratched and dropped along the way. Both sides of the mix include some of her most personally coveted recordings. To gather these records, Eris spent decades identifying tracks from older mix cassettes recorded by her DJ heroes, such as Terry Mullan and Mystic Bill, as well as discovering many of the featured tracks through happenstance and countless hours digging through dusty bins and YouTube rips. Each of the tracks on Volume II are at least 20 years old—some much older—but fresh is the word here, and the word is freeeesh!

Now, as the snow melts and the flowers of rave romance start to bloom, T4T wants to know one thing…Are U ready to rock right?

Simon Aussel is known for a particularly wild DJing style and leftfield bassy bangers, and it's his curious and playful approach to clubland that's won him loyal fans over the years. Whether photographing drink tokens from gigs or creating an 8-bit version of his debut album on a Game Boy cartridge, he seems to approach every endeavour with childlike joy and wonder—rare qualities in an industry that can leave so many jaded.

The Nantes-born, Paris-based artist's love of club culture, digging and world-building has set him on a blazing path in club music. He's released an exceptionally wide range of music, including a Memphis rap tape for Trilogy Tapes, dubstep-trap-jazz hybrids with Egyptian singer Abdullah Miniawy and deadly hard drum for Livity Sound. His mixes, meanwhile, are fast becoming DJ lore thanks to his knack for connecting seemingly opposed genres like new wave and fast techno. Look no further than his now-infamous Dekmantel Selectors set from 2021 or a marathon back-to-back with Skee Mask in 2022. 

As the French DJ gets more comfortable with story-telling, he's getting more personal and focusing on deeper, slower sounds. That's evident on this RA Podcast—six months in the works—which incorporates woozy downtempo, weighty dub and bleepy beats. Of course, in the chaotic middle section there's plenty of huge basslines, plus old-school electro, acidic techno and even a bouncy edit of the Montell Jordan classic "This Is How We Do It." Showcasing his quirks, influences and growth, this is Simo Cell in prime time.

Partijska linija #146: Blažen DJ @ Channel Zero

Munich meets Miami in a B2B that's a dream come true. A perfect brew of DnB, hip hop, techno, ambient, and bouncy mesh brings together two of the scene's most innovative forces. Skee Mask, the master of acoustic manipulation and dark atmospheric textures, teams up with childhood friends duo INVT, with their hypnotic, trippy Latin-scented audioscapes and intricate drum programming. An immaculate blend of INVT's gritty rhythms and Skee Mask's otherworldly sonic engineering.

Nicola Ratti, sound artist, sound engineer and professor talked
about »performing sound in space« in various contexts, from studio
environment, recording sounds, sound and multimedia installations,
performing in various places and in the context of contemporary
theatre, performance and dance. Through various examples,
including from his work as a sound director for
groundbreaking contemporary theatre director Romeo Castellucci
he showed differences between the performing arts situations compared to the live music ones.

The first collector to introduce her/himself on "5918mins.“ is "exte82“ aka veterinarian Üllar Siir from Tallinn, Estonia. Üllar delivers 72 minutes of Rare Psych (aka those 7inches that you only come across once in your life-time, if ever). Within the mix, he proves his uncompromising commitment to music, far detached from genre-hypes. 

While he is certainly one of the most-respected out there (just ask Soul-fanatico Jeremy Underground),  we found Üllar’s focus on the essence of what it means to be a music-collector particularly impressive. Üllar digs completely in his own realm. His taste is so distinct that we even got into the habit of describing certain music as "exte-type-records“. Together with his ability to casually pull out tracks that leave you speechless (e.g. 3rd track in this mix), it was instantly clear that he had to do the first mix in this project (and we’re very happy it came together!).

In recent times we have seen a wave of hugely talented disc jockeys emerge from Japan...

Yuzo Iwata is from Sapporo and has been working prominently in the city as a promoter behind his party, FLOPPY. As a disc jockey he is superbly talented, taking an eclectic approach to his sets which often meander between style and genre. He also makes use of field recordings and plays experimentally from the perspective of telling a story through his own musical representation. 

Now based in Berlin, he spends his days working in second hand record shops and producing his own music which has so far been released on the likes of Pluie/Noir and Rotate. He has forthcoming music soon to be released on SJ Tequila's record label Shot of T which lurks around the corner. 

This mix was recorded live as part of an opening set at Precious Hall in Sapporo at his own FLOPPY party - it is recorded entirely on vinyl with the exception of one unreleased track and some overlaid field recordings. 

Lock in.
