In Focus this time is Lucas Nassar aka Toadstool, a producer from Brazil. He started studying Ableton live in 2010, and since then he has been experimenting with a lot different and weird sound designs. In 2013 he graduated from Yellow DJ School, further improving his mixing skills. In mid 2014 he started his Toadstool project with the intention of making a dark and dynamic sound without limitations to bpm, full of ambience, leads, striking basslines and a schizophrenic flow. Transforming all the bizarre repression of the system into frequencies and inner freedom, "living the extreme side". This mix titled 'A Tale of Toadstool' contains his performance playing Ableton live, the way he mixes, new and older tracks, also some collabs with other artists and friends. The concept is to provide something that throws everything that is trapped inside us into the shape of music, dance, humor and protest.

Sunrise At The Gorge

No abismo tíbio e mórbido
Entre as aberrações expostas
E Feridas abertas
A maldição autoinflingida 
É revelada e vulnerável 
As sombras intrínsecas do ser

Nos oceanos instáveis do âmago
A culpa, a apatia, o medo, a raiva, a vergonha e a tristeza habitam 
Um confronto com a sombra e a morte 
Espelha o encontro da luz da lua no oceano negrume

Bit Transforming at All

Once Upon A Time, I was asked to play a set on thé ultimate dark/hi tech festival: Master of Puppets. A nice challenge! As most of you know, I have my Scando & melodic forest alter ego "Skeleton Hex". So I made a mix between this project and the Dark Goa-trance of Anoebis. All was mixed live with CDs on CDJ2000s. Ready for some serious psychedelic music? Here we go! And support the artist if you like their music!

Anoebis @ Master of Puppets

Artist: Latent
Title: Neurodancer EP
Label: Sex Tapes From Mars
Cat No: SEXTAPE010
Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist:

A1 - Break Machine
A2 - Distress Robot
B1 - Disco Hijack
B2 - Virtual Body


Sex Tapes From Mars presents Outdom Records' boss, LATENT, who shares a brand-new four-track EP that spars with breakbeat, electro, house, and left-field electronics, neatly centring them all into a steady, sexy collision. The record as a whole captures genuinely original-sounding, rough-edged b-boy breaking badness - nostalgic, but never polite. It's a few BPMs slower than Sex Tapes' last few outings, but no less effective. Arguably, it's more late '80s sounding than ever, although, in fact, it's a brand-new, stonking release that showcases the label's versatility and unpredictability. 

The opening track, "Break Machine", sets the pace with a clear nod to the '80s US group of the same name, bringing tidy drum workouts and clipped vocal samples that recall early Chicago, as well as choppy rave and street party energy at its most unfiltered. 

"Disco Hijack" pushes the clutch into a more functional gear, merging delay-heavy, druggy, chuggy, sludgy bass with more robotic vocoder tropes, sharing something playful but IDM and European skewed. It's a dancefloor tool with a wink - just the style this now accomplished label has made its identity. Oh, don't forget the amens and clattering jungle breaks. 1990 or 2040? Fuck knows.  

On "Distress Robot", pneumatic percussion and malfunctioning android chatter bring a darker, more mechanical edge, while "Virtual Body" closes with a spacious, garage-leaning shuffle that pulls the EP into recognisable contemporary yet still very much peak-time territory. 

LATENT gives lean grit, pushes the edges, and lets the tracks feel alive in their imperfections. It’s music that thrives on tension between old-school reference points and modern floor pressure.

Bristol's label head Elon Dust HAS done it again. 

Vinyl-only as per, don't sleep."
