the first track is intensely awesome.  so inspiring. going off.

Nice! Love the mix - thanks for featuring our track :-)

This Alexey Volkov track is killer! Great mix btw Dave

Quite a different sounding show/mix for this month's Black+Light. 

This show/mix probably has a lot more black, than light, dark, very dark, and brutal at times. Featuring more Electro, EBM and Industrial type sounds than my previous shows/mixes and performances. Where usually I would balance with light and melodic, here I kept things dark.

In part, this show/mix is influenced and inspired by my friend Lauren, DJ Loveless @loveless-sounds and her excellent taste in music, recent mixes and performances here in Sydney.

Starting the show with some amazing, lush, evolving, epic, atmospheric, moody and darkly melodic, Electro productions from an alias of C-System. I don't usually like to play the same producer's tracks all in a row, but they all flowed together so perfectly here, with a fantastic Umwelt remix.

Awesome to see The Mover back. Memories of nights out raving, dancing to his dark techno tracks: Waves Of Life and Nightflight (Nonstop To Kaos) in the early 90's. 

I was also excited and inspired by excellent brand new music from Codex Empire, Lars Huismann, Headless Horseman, and I Hate Models, producers I love to support and play.

All the other producers in this show/mix are new to Black+Light: Cassegrain, The Mover, Irregular Synth, Star-Kid, DJ Hell, Marcel Dettmann, Echaskech and Parallx. Most happy to have finally found a great fit for Phase Fatale, and Alexey Volkov too, with their latest productions.

I'm extremely pleased with how well Echaskech's -  Emperor's New Clones, and the fantastic 80's style remix Marcel Dettmann did of DJ Hell's - I Want U, both progressed and layered together in this mix, a happy accident, magic combination.

Finishing with the awesomely epic, Cyanure Dance from I Hate Models. Fantastic production work, love the contrasting elements, harsh and melodic. You get the full 9 minutes here, the Fnoob Techno Radio broadcast version of this show/mix had to lose the last 3 minutes to fit the hour.

I noticed I used the word happy quite a bit here. Seems the wrong word for such dark music, but I've always had this thing where, I'm most happy when the music isn't. 

Enjoy!

Various DJ gigs in Sydney 1999 - 2005, and a few in 2008.

2016 got inspired by new sounds in techno music, new friends, Sydney techno DJ Loveless (RIP), and starting doing the digital DJ thing, putting mixes together. Invites to DJ out began.

Monthly Internet radio show: 'Black+Light' on Fnoob Nov 2016 > May 2018,

Passionate about a variety of underground techno music sounds: Deep, dark, atmospheric, brutal, heavy, twisted, minimal, broken, hard, light, beautiful, melodic, hypnotic - all depending on mood.

Loving the industrial, EBM, broken beats, heavy and dark atmospheres in modern techno music right now, still a fan of the rave. Not a fan of the new "hard techno" fast techno, tik-tok techno fad.
