The CJACT MIX series with CJA's hero : @stepanov_dj

Born and raised in Valence, in the beautiful Drôme, Stepanov is a child of the nineties; brought up in front of the television watching clips from the MTV and MCM channels that his cousins watched over and over again.

This period gave him a taste for music, particularly electronic and club music!

It was much later, at the age of reason, that he developed a taste for breakbeat.

For CJA, he dives into the party classics UK style: oldschool breakbeat, happy hardcore and big beat.

CJACT.MIX.008 -- STEPANOV

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from JC Laurent. Nothing But An Illussion" is the title track off the new EP forthcoming on Cielo Records. The French-based imprint is a techno project from JC Laurent that has so far been a vessel for his own cutting-edge ideas and diverse taste. Having over ten years of production experience to his name, JC Laurent has released on the likes of Coyu's Suara, Abstract Division's Dynamic Reflection, and Deepak Sharma's Hidden Recordings amongst others. Today we premiere the third track on the EP which steps into a slightly leftfield approach with cyclical tones, shuffling beat and a sci-fi aesthetic.

Nothing But An Illusion is out February 2nd. Pick it up at: https://jclaurent.bandcamp.com/album/nothing-but-an-illusion?label=431018992&tab=music

Third Space has firmly cemented himself back into that head-snapping drum ‘n bass percussion he initially poked his head through. While his recent jaunt for Longform Editions reached into smeared and smudged time portals, stretching time into its most razor-thin edge, this release brings these two worlds together in harmony. Although, those abstract whirlpools have reappeared, through noise and blown out static-as-percussion akin to Emptyset, Ikeda etc. etc.

Throughout dot points, there is an acute awareness around how much solid ground to allow an audience. An instinctive ear for rhythm and texture pushes composition to its limits but keeps more recognisable elements an arm’s length away, keeping immersion consistent, constant – an idea that’s been in Third Space’s work from the start. The tracks are daringly short but remain fully fledged songs, rich with layer and consideration, percussion building as lyrical prose, unwinding stanza by stanza.

While definitely drifting back into the realm of dance music, this is not Third Space leaving drone and tonal shifts behind him. This is merely dipping his toes back into the water of the world he first started in, ready to contribute something new after coming up for air.

In a time beyond time when the boundaries between dimensions were screamed louder than a
cosmic loom, the entities Property and si’nedd emerged into existence. They were forces of
nature, not bound by physical laws but intertwined with universal essence. Property, the
embodiment of structure and form, was the stabilizing force in a world of chaos, while si’nedd, a
radiant entity of light and potential, sparked a dynamic touch. The people of the land, who lived
in the vast plains of Feld and the sun-drenched deserts of Liwa, watched in awe, coining this
phenomenon the shining regeneration of renewal and unity, all in accordance with the 8th
hexagonic chapter of this endless belief.

Today, the power unleashed in their encounters reverberates through the fabric of reality,
causing ripples that can heal. The wise ones of the ancient world, adepts of the I'Ching, are fully
aware of this feat. Consulting in the sacred texts of I’Ching, we begin to understand the
necessity to Unite, to bring forces together in harmony rather than to conflict. Not everyone has
to understand the intensity of Property and si’nedd's connection. In the quiet village of Adevo,
nestled between the mountains of Belan and the forests of Skai, the people experience both
Dolor and Noxa—pain and harm—when forces are unbalanced.

There – the nearby fields, the Ventu winds blow gently, Onie flowers are blooming, symbols of
hope and healing, whispering that with unity comes the potential for the construction of the great
temple of Belan.

As the cycle of encounters continues, the villagers begin to understand the deeper rhythm of the
book. They realized that the union of Property and si’nedd isnot merely an event but a
process—a weaving of existence that neither begins nor ends with the measurement of time.
The wise leader we call Somni, slides in to remind us of the following teaching we hold so dear
to our hearts: "We sleep, but the loom of life never stops, and the pattern which was weaving
when the sun went down is weaving when it comes up tomorrow." With this, the people of
Adevo, Liwa, and beyond now embrace the blend of creation and destruction.

We open our eyes –

In the heart of Adevo, within the temple of Belan, there stands a mysterious mirror, said to
reflect not just the physical form but the very soul of those who gaze into it. Yes, you – yes, me.
This mirror is believed to hold the secrets of unity, for when two stood before it, their reflections
would merge, revealing a single, harmonious entity. We are reminded that "holding together
means uniting," a principle that is echoed in the teachings of the 8th hexagram. It has been said
that only through true unity can the forces of Property and Si’nedd be balanced on a string of
harmonic madness –
In moments when life moves quickly and the pace of existence is overwhelmed by threats, the
mirror offers a stillness, urging those who look into it to slow down.

"The way does not speak," the elders whisper, "but in its silence, it guides." It is in this quietude,
this space of reflection, that the villagers are discovering their inner guidance, learning to
navigate the complexities of life by holding together, united in purpose and spirit, even as the
world around them swirls with the chaos of change – or rather, the Book of Change.

Criminal Justice Act, c'est quoi ?
Une pensée à tous les ravers ayant connu la répression suite à la loi Criminal Justice Act mise en place en 1994 en Angleterre.
Un clin d’œil à ceux qui ont su faire perdurer la fête malgré la répression, à ceux qui ont permis à cette culture d'être ce qu'elle est aujourd'hui.
