PERKO @ THE GLOVE THAT FITS 27.08.21

For Number Fifty eight... A very special live recording from two US based queens, @ameliaholt & @notyumiko , who make up two thirds of the 'In Your Dirty Ears' crew. This set was recorded at Public Records in NYC. In Your Dirty Ears currently hosts a residency at Public Records. Amelia also hosts a bi-monthly radio residency on @movement-radio-athens.

Cut from the In Your Dirty Ears residency at Public Records, the mix spans from trip hop and dub to bass heavy dance music with Amelia Holt on for the first hour, followed by Yumi for the later hour and a half. The two alongside Sara Casella run a monthly newsletter focusing on exciting new releases and mixes circulating amongst the three. You can sign up here: tinyletter.com/InYourDirtyEars

LIVE @ PEOPLE DRIFT | ORMSIDE PROJECTS LONDON 2 DEC 2022

DJ Eft is a terrestrial amphibian with roots in NJ & Philadelphia. The now Portland based DJ, producer, designer, animator, & "World Healer" has spent time slinking through the mycelial forest duff, sampling the sounds and flavors of the PNW old growth and ocean. Eft is a natural farmer with a strong connection to the cycles of nature and makes contact with the spirits regularly which guide his ethereal selections in ambient, hypnotic techno, dub techno, trance infused tech-house, 4th world, and experimental IDM. 

I first met DJ EFT, also known as Mugwert at Aqua Lucidity, a festival on the sunshine coast last year. I awoke in my tent the Saturday morning after a heavy session to amazing selections I initially thought were coming from the main and only stage. Instantly drawn to the post night early morning DMT energy coming out of his portable mini rig - we became friends. 

I later in the summer travelled down to Canyon Vibrations in Oregon to watch EFT play the downtempo stage where I entered into another realm from his selections. 

Anyway stoked to have the homie on the Inc.ternational series where we're searching far and wide for those off kilter and beautiful moments in music out of the mundane and formulaic. 

EFT has delivered a Weirdos inc. Mix for sure and i'm sure you'll enjoy!

Third Place w/ My Flower - May 2023

For entry number 14 in the PPRZ Podcast series, we have a mix from Portlands's @dj_eft

DJ Eft's artistic journey takes him on a mystical exploration, delving deep into the hidden corners of the Pacific Northwest's lush landscapes. Immersed in the natural wonders of the region's ancient forests and majestic oceans, he absorbs the sounds and flavors that permeate these sacred spaces. With each sonic encounter, DJ Eft weaves a tapestry of emotions and experiences that resonate with the essence of his surroundings.

With roots in the pine barrens of New Jersey and streets of Philadelphia, DJ Eft, also known as Mugwert, has become an influential figure in the thriving music scene of his now home town Portland. Eft contributes regularly as a resident, poster designer, and curator to the budding two-room techno forward party "Osmosis", hosted in a 100 year old Chinese restaurant and lounge.

Dedicated in every sense to the work of creating space for dance DJ Eft lays his heart out in everything he does, culminating into something unmistakably emotional and earnest.

DJ Eft describes the mix as 'When recording a mix I need to create a ceremony of sorts where I get the vibe right and light my favorite incense. For this mix my intention was to weave hypnotic techno with bass laden breakbeats and heavier sounds. I ended up playing some chuggy slow tracks at the end to round things out. For this mix I borrowed a friend's cdj 3000's and used a Model 1 mixer recorded out to a Zoom H5 and maximized in Ableton in my basement listening/dj room. I really love this mixer for sculpting smooth blends and having detailed control of filters and frequencies. I had just a few hours left with the equipment by the time I recorded the mix as it was being rented for a party that night. I was able to finish the mix to my hearts content with about 30 minutes to spare and felt really solid about it after a listen.'

PPRZ Podcast 14 - DJ Eft

For CoziMix07 we welcome Dj Winggold! who is the curator of unbound events and unbound riddims on Netil Radio which is a London based party and radio show pushing the boundaries of electronic music whilst spreading joy across platforms. His emotive yet energetic sounds harness our ears, bodies and souls leaving us in a psychedelic realm. Charles has incredible power on and off the dance floor, promoting a more inclusive and innovative community. 

1. How and why did you get into producing / dj’ing?
I’ve been running events under Unbound Events since 2017, with it first starting as an outlet to pour my energies into after going through a really deep and dark depressive period. I initially didn’t have any plans to DJ, but it quickly became clear that there was a specific emotional strain of dark, tribalistic but varied and boundary-less sound that I wanted to push, so I taught myself to DJ a few months after first starting.

My first gig was at the 2nd ever Unbound in February 2018 then things have just escalated from there. I had a year where I solidly dabbled in Ableton as a way to further channel my sadboi energy into music, but I got to a point where I was too busy to keep it going. Maybe some point in future…

2. Who, What/where was your most coziest gig you've been to or experienced and why?

A real core memory for me was seeing Ben Howard at Shepherd’s Bush Empire around a decade ago when I was at uni. Despite being a moderately sized venue, he still managed to make it feel intimate and I distinctly remember the crowd experiencing the show in hushed awe during a few songs, without anyone making a peep.

More recently, I went down to Iklectic for the first time and saw Ulla perform live. She’s one of my favourite ambient artists ever and it was beautiful seeing everyone engage deeply with it, either sprawled out on the floor, seated with eyes closed or watching attentively.

3. Do you consider yourself an introvert or extrovert in the industry?

Ha, I’m pretty extroverted by nature but defs have introvert tendencies and need plenty of alone time to recharge. I lowkey find it pretty exhausting always being ‘on’, especially when in club spaces where I go to in order to unwind and *not* talk about or think about music industry stuff. 

Pretty interesting observation is how the industry favours those with more extroverted personalities, especially with the way social media and rampant self-promotion fits in with things. I got into all this for v nerdy introspective reasons and have been basically just creating for myself, so it’s been an adjustment getting used to navigating so many people.

4. If you had to choose 1 track to vibe out too forever, what would it be?

Literally impossible to choose just one track lol. One that I’ve endlessly played a lot over the past year and a bit, though, is ‘Summer’ by Pub - it’s 16 mins of bliss that simultaneously feels like an eternity and leaves you wanting more. Truly one of the greatest dub-techno influenced tracks of all time and one that never gets old.

What is your routine when preparing for a gig / production/writing session? Do you have any special remedies/ mental/physical prep/ places to go to? :)

I try (and usually fail) to prepare quite rigorously for gigs, planning out a rough narrative I’d like to paint but leaving enough space for spontaneity and changes in vibe based on the crowd. In reality, I’m usually prepping until the v last minute before the gig and then any vague plan usually goes straight out the window within the first few tunes! :’)

On the rare occasions when I’m not insanely pressed for time (the joys of having a busy full time job, woo), I like to meditate and stretch ahead of a set, setting intentions for the set and making sure I feel fully connected to my body so I can better connect with the energy of the crowd. I’ve also recently started listening to non-dance music to cleanse my ears before playing - shoutout to FKA Twigs and shoegaze music.

Originally hailing from Scotland, @perkopair debuted on Numbers in 2018 combining a specifically British soundsystem/bass sensibility with some deeper European styles on the NV Auto EP. Now based in Copenhagen, he’s recently returned to Numbers marching out more meticulously-crafted works of experimental drum and bass and barebones left-field techno by the slightest of means. Included in this mix we have “Some new stuff, some forthcoming stuff, and some records that I’ve bought recently at Discos Paradiso, 313vinylcollective and Percy Records."
