Spotted is the Guerrilla Bizarre mix series dedicated to underlooked selectors from all over the world who we think deserve more attention and support. The series will not be bound to any style or genre, our picks will focus on their quality and give complete freedom of expression.

Ukraine's talent Roma Khropko has been killing it in the studio lately, with a number of incredible releases on different outputs including labels like H24 Musique, Roof Records, Club Vision, Quinoa, or Genie In A Bottle. As this recording demonstrates, his mix output does not different - in this hour for Guerrilla Bizarre he provides an enthralling selection, lingering towards the realm of best groove-powered techno and electro.

In the new episode of Night Lovers mixes, we are pleased to present the mix of our friend and vinyl selector Forgotten Disco Star. Anatoliy currently lives in Germany and has been involved in music, collecting records, and working on his own record store @soundhoundrecordstore for many years.

In this mix of street soul, downtempo, AOR, synth pop and house, Anatoly was inspired by his favorite compilations of his youth from early 2000s, such as LateNiteTales and Back To Mine. Rare finds that perfectly complement each other, you can literally fly away. 
Perfect work.
For morning coffee and summer walks.

Mix of the Week #490: Toaka - Kava Club

Dishing up an extended all-spice-mix from local hot saucier @lava-brain. Prepare for some genuine mind realignment with 3.5 hours of mesmerisingly deep heat!

Q. Hey Eric, what inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. Thanks for having me! I don’t know if there was a conscious thought so much, but lots of music to either get you in a meditative mood or moving depending on how you’re feeling. I guess there are definitely a lot of elements from the 90s Bristol scene threaded through the mix in one way or another. That trip hop/down tempo sound was really a big gateway into a lot of electronic music for me and it’s what I was listening to a lot of when I first started DJing. ‘Bass is Maternal’ by Smith & Mighty was a really big record for me; bringing together a lot of trip hop, dub, bass, breakbeat and jungle sounds, which feature in a lot of tracks in the mix.    

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart?

Definitely! There’s a mix of some older favs like 'Transient' by Mr G, 'Tokyo Dawn' by Doc Scott & a Smith & Mighty tune. 'The Edgelands' by Rings Around Saturn has definitely had its fair share of listens over the years for me too. There's also a bunch of newer tracks, lots of local favourites & just music that inspires me. 
One tune which I hold especially close would have to be Delano Smith’s ‘The Rock’. I remember hearing it for the first time and I still find it hard not to get hypnotised by it. The vocal sample about universal unity is also pretty groovy :)

Q. Tell us what’s the latest with the visual aspect of your Lava Brain project? How would you describe your approach?

A. It’s been really great to get more opportunities to work on the live visuals & projection mapping part of my practice recently and to focus on it 100% at a party. 

In terms of my approach to integrating the two, with every event there are so many different elements that need to work together to make it a success. I think it's really about creating an awesome experience, working together with the music and space to compliment each other and help curate a mood. Working with different collectives or venues is always interesting, as all the elements change including the physical space and I enjoy the design process; usually starting with the logical side of the ‘how’ will this technically work and then the ‘what’ in terms of creative content. 

I guess I try to tap into my own feelings when designing an install or content and ask myself something like ‘How would this make me feel in the context of the party, music and space and what’s the intention we as a collective are trying to curate?’ I’m also starting to expand my setup, experimenting with mapping a small wireless midi controller to be able to still be able to control the visuals while being away from the laptop and part of the party, letting me further tap into those intuitive feelings. 

Currently I’m working on a visual instalment for Ferdydurke’s 11th birthday on August 12th and have been working with some new projection materials, experimenting with sheer fabrics to project a succession of images above the dancefloor to give a sort of floating holographic tunnel effect. For the event I’m also working on building a motorised lighting sculpture for the entrance to the venue, which is something new for me. 
In parallel, I’m working on some grant applications and starting to look for sponsorships for a multi-day projection art and music series I’m working on, in collaboration with the Section 8 crew. With all going to plan, that should be happening mid-next year. 
Other than that, continuing to learn, play and experiment, currently I’m starting to teach myself Touch Designer to expand that side of my creative practice and just always staying open to new projects and collaborations :)

On this episode we have guest mix by Tobi Giese aka Real People Music. Tobi made us a wonderful mix of private press outlier music last year and we're thrilled to have another selection from his unique collection, this time with a focus on US introspective and spiritual music, or as he calls it cosmic lounge. It’s a fantastic survey of underknown small run personal recordings from the margins of US culture.

Depresson Sleeping

Deeply rooted in classic hip-hop, funk and boogie, Kiev-based beatmaker Pahatam didn’t mind selling his everything back in the days in order to afford his first Roland drum-machine. Addicted to vinyl, he believes that dissonance is what makes music beautiful and puts groove and atmosphere in the first place. Experiments led him to producing raw house and academic techno and he doesn’t seem to stop exploring.

Znaesh (Single)

Bandcamp

Philipp Gorbachev & Interchain - Znaesh

Label: Kiev House Records(https://soundcloud.com/kievhouse)
Artist: Youngg P (https://soundcloud.com/youngg_primat)
Title: Morning Smoke
Cat. No. KH005 
Vinyl only
Out June 5th

Kiev House steps out with its first independent 12” to represent the most upfront and exciting talent coming out of Kiev.

Youngg P recently dropped the Carpathian Rave single on hotly tipped Russian label Private Persons. Now Morning Smoke provides an even deeper introduction to the artist’s immersive, psychoactive house music. 

From the title track’s tough drum lines and woozy atmosphere to “Lame Fetish”, which blossoms into life on a hazy bed of undulating chords and broken beats, and on to the spooky chimes of “Acid Tool,” this 12” marks a leap forward for both Youngg P and the wider Ukranian house music scene.
 
Italian producer Steve Murphy rounds the EP out with a sumptuous, dubbed out version of “Morning Smoke” perfect for the hazy early hours of the day the track title celebrates. 

Limited to 200 copies, it’s not a record to be slept on when it passes in front of you.
