All sets performed in front of unsuspecting audiences at various events around Finland, or at home, usually just for the pleasure of it but sometimes to experiment, improvise and exercise, for later narcissistic listening - but above all for the pleasure it gives.

I find that I prefer to build sets with a chaotic yet controlled process: nothing is planned in advance, the number of records I have is always N times more than is needed; knowing the next track is extremely rare, so there's a lot of back-and-forth, trying on different tracks for the transition, then making it work both technically and musically, building tension and providing release while trying to fail as little as possible and fueling the flow.

A lot of the sets are named after books written by some of my favourite authors. They're not soundtracks for the books, though they occasionally attempt to reflect emotional states I've experienced while reading them.

I owe a debt of gratitude towards all artists and labels on whose shoulders my sets are standing on. You make things possible.

Thank you.

Gladiocast #13 - Dcom

Serendipities surround the collaboration between Berlin’s Stroboscopic Artefacts label founder Lucy and their most recent record with Malaysian Bangkok based emerging artist Wanton Witch, who as a newcomer to the scene has received great acclaim with her debut LP becoming one of the best albums of 2021 on Resident Advisor and album of the day on Bandcamp. The release culminates in the reimagining of WW album as seen and felt through the lens of Lucy. This is a follow up full-length album by Lucy not approached as a usual remixes record, but instead a fully fleshed out new body of work with the WW material being an integral part of Lucy’s sonic palette.

Despite the label hiatus during the first year of lockdowns, the isolation of the pandemic helped create a fertile ground for a back and forth between Wanton Witch and Lucy’s own distinct sound palettes to collide. With the normal every day pressures of touring lifted and enlightened by WW’s sonic world, Lucy has seen this as a positive opportunity to manifest new pathways of connectivity and process a phase of personal growth. Not simply about the breaking of gender lines, but also about the blurring of creative boundaries, especially when making music.

Lucy’s original patronage of Wanton Witch and her relatively fresh and new voice in the electronic music scene can be seen as a contribution to this idea of dismantling industry norms. In more than a decade of SA operations this is a reset moment for the label’s mission focusing on empowering new talent, refreshing and growing with them, presenting a dynamic two-way process between the label as a whole and the individual artists output.

Lucy’s personal revolution has coincided with Wanton Witch’s own discovery of her musical voice and their paths have created a synchronicity. This osmosis of thought and feeling, even through massive distances, can be so real and tangible. Lucy’s new album is a testament to the power of connective tissue in collaboration. It is this catalyst of realisation that has allowed the creative work to flourish under the toughest of pandemic conditions.

Bio |
Early in 1998 he found his way playing music by himself with two turntables and a mixer. After few years getting in shape he moved forward to perform in Clubs
and Raves in Madrid, eventually with time becoming a Sound Technician. CO-FOUNDER of Asymmetrical Records and now based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Artwork |
The picture shows the facade of a modern building on the Frankfurt exhibition grounds. The typical features of the Bauhaus style are recognizable, especially the symmetrical and simple forms. The aesthetics here lie in the maxim so characteristic of this style: form follows function. Beauty is therefore defined by functionality and not the other way around.

Nuutti-Iivari Meriläinen aka dcom (@dcommunications) was born immersed into a world of music, starting with classical music studies at an early age and playing multiple instruments as a teen. His interest towards electronic dance music and away from the popular was kindled by a trip to Ibiza at the tender age of 14, kickstarting an obsession to refine an already eclectic taste in music. dcom has been playing a wide variety of electronic music for almost 30 years from his meticulously curated collection ranging from ambient soundscapes to rhythmic industrial noise.

This is a vinyl only mix made on a pair of SL-1200MK5s, Ecler NUO 4.0, Audacity, one take, no editing, no excuses.
