UNMASKED DISCUSSION 127 | CUKIER

On September 18 2014, whilst in LA Gilles swung by Dublab for a chat and to play some tunes, from Sonzeira to Lonnie Holley through to new Aphex Twin and Shackleton, touching on some northern soul, Brazilian psychedelia, jazz and a load in between.

Gilles Peterson Live on Dublab

Having written a piece on Precious Hall which you can read above(see the blog button), I thought you might enjoy the first part of my set there on Oct 5. 

I was playing alongside Toshio Matsuura who as I walked in the club was playing some electronic bits that sounded so heavy, I threw a few in myself… Hope you enjoy.

TF #201: @tapefeed [@t-a-l-e-s] - London

The talented duo hailing originally from Italy yet currently based out of London, Tapefeed. They are the resident DJs of Superstition at Village Underground in London and Co-owners of the Tales Collective label. 

Recently their return on Metempsychosis Records with a controversial EP which includes two powerful remixes by Answer Code Request and Killawatt.  Taking inspiration from a famous quote of Eldridge Cleaver (writer and political activist) “They use force to make you do what the deciders have decided you must do” which was also repeated many times from Rage Against The Machine's frontman Zack De La Rocha before the start of their live performances, the EP's raw and industrial sound is an invite to raise awareness to a time of worldwide disconnection and conflict.

Diencephalon Diaries - Threads Radio [03.04.20]
‘Method Of Loci’ w/ J-Shadow & Cukier [Codeword]

► 0:00 - 29:40 - J-Shadow Mix
► 29:50 - 1:59:59 - Cukier guestmix

Cukier [Codeword] joins J-Shadow's monthly Threads Radio show with a 90 minute guestmix (29:50-01:59:59). Cukier's sound incorporates a heady mix of driving, hypnotic and immersive techno with a tasteful smattering of deeper, emotive textures: sexy, high-octane grooves designed for many hours on the dancefloor. Over the past two years, Cukier has showcased this approach with the establishment of Codeword, the Berlin-inspired techno party at London's leading underground techno establishment, FOLD. With Codeword, Cukier has hosted and played alongside Berghain / Panorama Bar residents Efdemin and Boris; Token Records heavyweight, Inigo Kennedy; and has collaborated with British DJ/producer, Inland (Ed Davenport) and Taiwanese promoter and label, Smoke Machine. Codeword will return to FOLD in late summer/early autumn. J-Shadow's 'Diencephalon Diaries' show returns to Threads Radio next month.

To celebrate the spirit of 1st of May, we decided to release our latest Ich Hab Bock set on this day from our friend and artist duo Audio Units from India. 6 years ago, Audio Units gave great support to GD by releasing our fourth podcast with us. Today, we are crossing borders and crossing genres with a dark, trippy and hypnotic techno set. Even though we are all supposed to stay home right now, we encourage you to turn up the volume and move to this one. The show must, after all, go on.  Enjoy!

Guest Mix 176: Yukari Okamura

This mix comes from Red Ophis, the new alias of our good friend Tonia Nee who played at MASS001 all the way back in 2018 with Andromeda, delivering an electrifying B2B set that baptised our night in perfect style. 

The founder of Synthapise, a non-profit event for animals' rights, recently became part of the MOTZ collective. Usually known for harsh industrial techno, as demonstrated in her previous MASS sessions mix, like a snake that sheds its skin, she now widens the scope of her sounds to give space to anything that resonates.

Codeword w/ Cukier (Threads Radio - 14 June 2020)

Vegim's journey into the underground began in the mid 90's. At first, music was just a hobby. Once he began collecting records his obsession grew stronger and he invested in his first pieces of music equipment. 1998 was the year Vegim became a full time slave to the underground. He rapidly developed his skills as a DJ and in his Production. The desire to tell his story through music took over and Vegim has never looked back. Earliest experiments in the studio go back to around 2002. Today, Vegim is recognized as one of Techno's most influential artists. Not only a skilled DJ/Producer but also a graphics designer and coneptionalist that has a style unlike any other.

He has released his own tracks and done countless remixes for many of the best known labels in the Techno realm. His tracks and remixes are well supported by dj’s like: Dave Clarke, Laurent Garnier, Chris Liebing, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Dax J, Slam and many more.

For the most recent collaborative release curated by WSNWG, label head Rødhåd invited young, Brighton-based breakthrough producer and DJ Rene Wise to his studio for a week-long jam session in 2019. 
The end result is four driving, hypnotic Techno tracks with a swinging groove and 90s-inspired percussion. Made for the club, they build up tension and captivate listeners with rolling baselines, funky rhythms and mystical melodies.
