You killed it, quite the memorable session across the board, accompanied by some beautiful artwork. Big ups!

To mark the pending release of my upcoming joint EP with Mineral (forthcoming on Omni Music on 28th August, here's my 'Helsinki to Hampshire') mix.  The mix includes all 4 tracks from the EP, alongside my forthcoming remixes of Synthforce and InTake for Default Recordings, a first play for my remix of Woken Balance's track 'Andromeda' (forthcoming on Metius Music), and my solo track Like Minds (Out now on the fantastic Sonic Landscapes compilation on EC Underground).

The first part of the mix focusses on cinematic dancefloor sounds / atmospheric and jungle, and then things switch towards a jazzier direction for a bit towards the end, including a sneak peek of a joint track with my Codename: Amen co-owner Rome. 

You can catch Mineral, Rome and I all playing in Southampton at Codename: Amen on 1st October 2022, with Dead Man's Chest headlining - hopefully see you there!

Resident Sessions Vol. 1 (Colin Pierce aka NyL0C) Live Liquid Drum and Bass Mix

What a great time this week on the LLL stream! For EP90 I just wanted to bring an upvibe energy to the session to switch things up a bit from the darker vibe from recent weeks. There's some breezy jazz rollers at the beginning into some soulful cuts. Some chunky amen liquid at the end of the first hour makes way for more driving rollers in the 2nd hour. There's some kinda big room trancey liquid, ending with some synth driven things at the end. S/O to all LLL family who came through and vibed with me!

The Time Travel Mix (2023)

For a moment towards the end of this 2 hour stream I panicked when the screen on my MacBook went black and I realized Rekordbox had crashed, because in my mind this meant that this recording would be lost. Unbeknownst to me there's an auto-save function that preserves a copy I was able to retrieve after rebooting the software. The ending here is a little abrupt but the set is mostly all there!

Seems like at 90 odd episodes in I figured out that people apparently like... dancefloor DNB? 😑🤣  After last week's high energy stream I noticed people really responded when I brought up the intensity levels so I decided to try the same trick again this week by pushing the energy up at the end instead of going down (which is how I usually end a stream).  Perhaps unsurprisingly, people went apeshit with the emotes and bits and we got another Hype Train going (until the somewhat unfortunate RB crash put and end to that madness lmao)

All in all, a good time was had by all. My favorite parts are still the more nuanced and quiet parts in the first hour, but I personally like a little bit of everything and I like giving people what they want to hear... It's what a DJ does.

As always, thank you guys for listening. Smash the repost and like buttons if you're feeling this sesh. Until next week!

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP91|FEB18|2023)

For this particular session I didn't have much of an advance plan or direction but things still seemed to end up on the jazzy/soulful side of the spectrum for a good amount of the first hour. It was a nice crisp spring day in Georgia so I suppose that's pretty appropriate. Some cool deeper/melodic new music got played in that hour before I amped the energy up a bit around the one hour mark. Second hour I settled into a slightly darker dub roller type sound, mixed with some angular minimal and tech rollers. By the end I ended back down into some deeper sci-fi liquid and soulful rollers to close it out. Fun sesh, good vibes as always. S/O to my loyal LLL crew always representing and the few new followers who came on board this week!

Schematic Sound LIVE on Bassdrive 03-25-2023

The 2 hour format of this stream is one I've become so accustomed to  over time that I've fallen into some kind of well-worn routine of how I approach filling the time. The downside of that is that when I play IRL gigs and I only have one hour to fill, I have a hard time jumping right into the explosive sound and pacing you need to catch and hold the attention of say, a festival crowd. I've been digging through my collection and building more expansive playlists than I normally would in order to force myself out of my comfort zone and try out different set structures, but also to play the type of energetic tunes I tend to avoid sometimes. Sometimes the experiments work, sometimes they don't, but it's always an entertaining endeavor trying to find out.

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP98|APR15|2023)

For installment 105 I cycled through a variety of sounds. As is usually the case, I started out on a deeper melodic vibe and gradually tried to inch my way up through some soulful liquid sounds. For the second hour I pushed the energy up into some upbeat minimal roller territory before briefly peaking into an almost neuro tech sound. Last 20 - 30 minutes or so cools things back off into smoother expansive  vibey rollers.

It was a fun, bright and positive summer day with the usual suspects pulling up in the chat. Always grateful for the stream support. I'll be taking July 1st off to play with Hugh Hardie and MC Fava in the Georgia woods for Summer Slam. If you're in the area, I'd love to see you IRL!

D:RC came up DJing (mostly drum'nbass) in the mid-90s while attending the University of Georgia in Athens, Ga. As founding member of the local Phungus, Playtheavy and Sleuth Empire crews he found himself at the center of a burgeoning rave scene, collaborating with friends on dance music events in the Athens/Atlanta areas and beyond.

In 2004 he founded Studio:Machina, a graphic design practice geared towards the music industry. Building on his behind the scenes expertise and keen artistic instincts he's become an in-demand contributor on artistic projects in a variety of media. He's toured the US as member of the Smookie Illson bass music trio, serves as creative director for the Chicago-based Illeven:Eleven Recordings label and functions as brand/art director of several nightlife concepts. 

Behind the decks he currently heavily favors the sounds of DNB, but brief forays into breakbeat, house, UK Garage + Bass and dubstep are not uncommon. Get to know.
