Tim Reaper & Kloke - Flow State

Lauer is back on Trush, his last appearance was back in 2013, so it's great to have another mix from the DJ and production machine and all around nice guy form Killianstädten. Mr Lauer gives us an 59:58 minute mix of balearic, house and electro sounds. Almost everything with Lauers distinct taste of the sound from the 80's with a modern twist! The drum programming, the synths and arpeggio, melodies and the sound. Italo influenced electro becoming house! Uplifting as always! A mix to enjoy from beginning till the end!

Music from the top! Enjoy!

Trushmix 197-Lauer

'Go On' is the first single from A.S.O, a duo comprised of singer/songwriter Alia Seror-O'Neill and music producer Lewie Day.

Day is better known as Tornado Wallace. Under this name, he takes on dance music's tropes and elevates them to heightened emotional states. There is a deft lightness of touch, serious musical chops, and a slight knowing wink to his work. Here, with fellow Australian/Berlin export Seror-O'Neill aka Alias Error, we're swimming in the deeper end of the same pool. Taking a step away from the dancefloor and crafting exquisite end-times pop music with one eye on the past. The mood is less upbeat and more intimate and reflective.

Let's not knit boots for snails here; the primary reference is trip-hop. But don't fear; this is not insipid coffee shop landfill. On the contrary, it has proper emotional heft and maturity. Over its three-minute run time, 'Go On' draws you completely into its world. It manages to be both ethereal and heavy, structurally unconventional without forgoing killer hooks. And O'Neill's voice comes sweet with a side-order of menace. The pair remember that the best tunes never let you get too comfortable. Sure, it has a 'chill out' hue, and you can imagine hearing it alongside those familiar sunset signifiers. But there's something deeper and darker below the surface.

'Go On' seems to exist in a liminal moment where languidness meets exhaustion. That indefinable instant when a high ends and the paranoia is in the post. It's a pretty song for sure, but it has teeth.

Go On

Detachment

a.s.o. opened their world to us with 'Go On' in the fall of 2022. Now, in 2023, we're granted an extended audience in 'Rain Down.' Whereas the debut single was tantalisingly brief, its follow-up is expansive and wide-screen. 'Rain Down' has a more conventional structure and a longer run-time but is a no less bitter-sweet, emotionally resonant song. And like its predecessor, it leaves you hungry for more.

Once again, there's more than a hint of guarded menace in Seror-O'Neill's vocal delivery. Or is it hard-learned self-reliance? But then comes that chorus. The tension breaks, euphoria rises, the sweetest release, let the rain come down. Control is ceded but only on her terms. Make no mistake; this is some proper songwriting. Light and shade, push and pull.

The musical palette is broad and spacious. We still ride on the trip-hop blueprint and a familiar break, but there are nods to Middle Eastern music, the melancholic nostalgia of chill-out, and rave euphoria. Lewie shows that he can capture a genre's essence and then move beyond it, taking us to a new place all of his own.

More masterful end-times pop music from a.s.o. This is rich, complex, hooky, moreish, and utterly essential.

Trushmix 202 by DJ Digg aka Tage Tombola straight outta Moss.

We are very happy to finally have a mix from one of the original club underground pioneers of Moss. A good friend, huge influence and important person from the very beginning of the Sex Tags years. The underground guru and good vibe mentor DJ Digg.

DJ Digg the man behind the legendary Fan Club, an alternative club venue started in Moss in 2001 for underground and counterculture. A place for those who wanted something different, a welcoming place for creative souls, and people in a small city who mostly where out at night.
The original Fan Club closed in 2003. But has since 2017 started as a club concept. DJ Digg and friends are providing regular quality club nights in Moss and Fredrikstad, spreading DJ culture and quality to the people.

DJ Digg has put together a 1 hour and 31 minutes club mix for Trush. Energy is high, 
sounds that take you to bigger clubs, Ibiza sunset and emotional endings of a beautiful night. Party and vibes here we go!

Enjoy music from the top!
