Temptations is my monthly mix series, showcasing selections of tracks I'm digging. Enjoy listening!

Temptations (Mixes)

This month, my Temptations mix is quite personal. Because it includes an upcoming Breakbeat production of mine: 'Move me' is going to be released as one of three tracks on the 'Twilight' EP on Capital Heaven Records this October! Framewerk's productions have been fantastic and seminal, so I'm super happy to release on their label.
Also, this Breakbeat mix is personal because many of these records have shaped my taste, their drums, basslines and synths have been stuck in my head for many years - the kind of music you keep on humming over and over again. Roughly half of the tracks in this mix were released (way) before 2021, whereas usually I wouldn't play that many older records. 
In fact, some of these records served as reference tracks when producing and mixing 'Move me'. So it's a special moment for me to have my music standing alongside giants of this genre. A tribute to the (Progressive) Breaks genre and its marvelous producers. 

Enjoy the music and stay tuned for the EP release!

Paul Kalkbrenner [Live @ The Midway, SF] 10.15.22

My Temptations mix series is back after a little hiatus.

With slightly evolved sound and yet true to the roots, the vibes captured here conclude summer season and give a glimpse on my future original productions.

This mix is inspired by a private little festival I played around Berlin this summer. While the gig was twice as long as this mix and included various older records, the overall vibe and records included here are pretty much the same.

@melquiadesmusic
Good friend and constant source of inspiration Alex Albrecht, joined me to celebrate my 300th episode of Passing Notes.

Few artists channel a consistent stream of creativity like Alex Albrecht. With over a decade of music-making under his belt, Alex has cultivated a distinct and frankly iconic musical identity. Effortlessly shapeshifting between experimental jazz, ambient, atmospheric house, and deep techno, Alex’s compositions are marked by an environmental undertone that imbues them with a uniquely “Alex Albrecht” earthly sense of place. Simultaneously anchoring and weightless, the common thread between it all is Alex’s ability to leave listeners safely ensconced in a swell of emotional resonance.

Improvisation and exploration are at the heart of Albrecht’s craft. His constantly evolving and captivating live performances have taken him to far corners of the globe, with appearances at iconic venues like Bassiani in Georgia, Monument in Norway, and Vent in Tokyo just to name a few. Each journey fuels his exploratory nature, offering new opportunities to immerse himself in the world around him. Field recordings serve as an auditory journal—postcards sent home to evoke memories of space and place that form the ever-important foundation of his creative process. These recordings provide a naturalistic canvas upon which Alex layers syncopated rhythmic subtleties and soaring, colorful synthetic brushstrokes.

With a rich discography amassing on celebrated labels such as A Strangely Isolated Place, Constellation Tatsu, Apollo, Scissor & Thread, and his own Analogue Attic Recordings—also celebrating its 10th anniversary this year—Albrecht’s work reflects a steadfast commitment to artistic authenticity and a depth of accrued knowledge now expressed through a craft so refined that oft feels effortless.

It was an honour to have Alex performing LIVE in the studio to celebrate this milestone together and share in his music that will continue to inspire us all.

Dorisburg - Tribute Mix

~ Deep Breakfast 311 by https://soundcloud.com/hame-compathy ~

We are pleased to introduce the new Deep Breakfast mix curated by Hame. Based in Amsterdam, Hame is a talented producer, DJ, and founder of the record label and event concept @pintai. His musical work explores the intersection of energy and emotion, carefully crafting moments of unity on the dance floor. This mix showcases Hame’s unique talent for blending vibrant energy with heartfelt expression, making it a truly compelling addition to your listening experience. He approaches this set much like movie soundtrack, crafting a narrative with different chapters that, while distinct, come together seamlessly to create a captivating and immersive journey.

"The set ends with a track I made, built around words by Teig Sadhana about the vulnerability of men. It’s a subject that comes up often in my work as an applied psychologist, especially in conversations with boys and young men. Some carry unspoken thoughts - like feeling content with the idea of becoming a stay-at-home dad, or not pursuing traditional career ambitions. Sometimes about smaller subjects, like asking for help. Many describe pressure from society, or a lack of support from peers, when it comes to embracing less conventional paths.

I believe there’s a lot to gain, as a society, if men feel freer to speak about these thoughts. If being loved and respected is tied in the mind to career success, self-reliance and emotional toughness, it becomes difficult to let go of that framework. Historically, this mindset has been rewarded with status and security - but that doesn’t mean it’s something healthy for everyone to continue striving for.

We’re often comfortable talking about ambition, strength, and problem-solving - traits we’ve learned to view as charismatic or positive. But many of us were never taught how to speak openly about things that might be seen as weak or uncertain.

And yet, isn’t it one of the braver things - to show vulnerability in the face of discomfort or fear? Toughness can serve many purposes, but I think a more open and compassionate attitude among men toward vulnerability can help us become less protective of what’s been built in the world and in our minds, creating more space for everyone in society."

Tracklist:
1. S.A.M. - How Far From The Sun Are We Talking?
2. Terre Thaemlitz - Installation Soundtrack To "Distribution Power - Tower"
3. Torus - Like The Night
4. Terre Thaemlitz - Liebesmachine
