Top class gentleman, DJ and Distant Worlds label owner from South London - Paul Rimbaud - has joined the philosophical ride, enticing us into his inner sanctum with an expressive mix of 90's vibes rave & breaks action. The "matchball" he refers to below is to get a mix onto my new Nietzsche Lessons series, Avenue Red and Avenue Red 1210 - the only man in the known universe to do so, so far. And he's smashed this one 5-0. Invisible mixing, totally seamless. Get your raving boots on. Reach for the lasers. Safe as fuck!

Paul Rimbaud wrote: "God is dead" spoke Nietzsche but somewhat negated the power of the declaration when he went and died himself, thus allowing God to declare "Nietzsche is dead". At least he would have if Nietzsche hadn't already done him dirty. Anyways turns out that the only positive maxim we can lay our faith in these days regards the late 20th century assertion that "hardcore will never die". Accordingly I've engaged in a Hegelian dialectic on the hardcore continuum in an effort to reach some degree of polyrhythmic synthesis; old stuff, new stuff, all sharing a common denominator - the breakbeat. 

To be quite honest, being a miserable sod, I always related more to Schopenhauer personally but I think we can all at least agree that there has never been a party that hasn't been livened up by debating long-dead German existentialists. In a direct affront to nihilism I am proud to collect the Pritchard match ball with this mix so may I implore all the listeners to let inspiration be your ecstasy and ecstasy, your inspiration.

My hand-picked quote:

"And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Hypnotic Salad Jazz * Volume 7 * Ulf

This week's Far Blue concept is crafted by the four friends of the UK-based collective and record label, Simpler Times. This one has been long in the making, and the final result is a truly special mix.

‘Reflections Of Things To Come’ is a carefully crafted hour long journey that showcases Simpler Times take on the Far Blue concept. It is inspired by the idea of reflecting on the past while dreaming of the future.

‘We wanted to do something special for this mix, so we decided to record a set made up of unreleased Simpler Times music. We’ve included some older unreleased stuff that has never seen the light of day before alongside some brand new music we produced especially for the mix. We wanted to combine the old with the new to mirror the concept of the mix.’

'What lies between memories and dreams?'

A Far Blue concept by Simpler Times - 'Reflections Of Things To Come'

The verdant-recordings techno and deepness caravan endeavours to promote the music of lesser known but accomplished producers. Its a huge honour present the 1st solo EP of K_Schreiber, one of several alias of London based Rupi Panesar. 

Explorations takes queues and inspiration from his lifetime of club culture experiences (on both sides of the DJ booth) his obsessive record collecting, whilst cultivating his obvious production skills. 

These tracks deftly assimilate sounds and textures from deep electro, techno, acid, dubs and traces of house with affection and reverence. It falls squarely into the Verdant Recordings deep and heady soundscape whilst offering unique, unconventional and playful textures.
