Thanks Mr. P! Not one @19:30, but two perfect beauties by Balil @Plaid!

This year’s first edition of my Voyage de Lux radio show is now available for streaming from the 1BTN audio clouds.
A deep acid-laced exploration through Electronica, Hardcore loops, Techno-breaks, Electro rhythms, Dub-Techno & IDM. 
It features some tight remixes (one from from ERP, the other by Aphex Twin), a cosmic classic from Mixmaster Morris, more than a few punchy productions from the man like MOY, a timeless track from The Black Dog, the recent release on EON recordings from Brummie talent Jayson Wynters, a classy 90’s gem from Steve Rachmad, and a killer cut from another dutch maverick - Martyn,  plus the usual sprinkling of tracks from The Advent, Sansibar, 214 & Adapta.

Voyage De Lux with Alex Downey - 26.01.2022

Anyone out there need a soundtrack for their rebellion?

I am delighted to share an all vinyl non techno mix that was a long time in the making. Every record collected over time, filling in the gaps of my collection of the music I wish I had access to when I was younger and deeply questing for good music. The photo is 35mm film my mother was shooting of our family when we were moving from California back to the midwest when I was 15 years old. That move would mark the beginning of upheaval and a very tumultuous time in my life. My older sister left the family leaving me with her old cassette tapes of New Order and Depeche Mode and then my parents packed up a moving truck to take us out to Indiana where I would meet my future husband Christoph briefly before we were uprooted again. After our California move, my parents split up and took my brother and I down to Texas. The next years of high school my parents got back together and moved us back and forth between the midwest and Texas so many times that I went to 7 different high schools in the span of just a few years. It was a crazy time for me to experience the different flavors of racism and bigotry that rural midwest and deep Texas had on display after growing up on the west coast. I was called many names and shunned because of how I looked and dressed. I knew that it was ignorance and just soldiered on waiting out the clock until I could turn 18 and make my own life. All the way through, I always took refuge in music which acted both as medicinal therapy and artistic inspiration for me. Although I will say the selections were lacking, when we were living out in the middle of nowhere. Not an independent record store in sight. No internet in those days. Music was salvaged from anywhere you could possibly get it, including thrift stores, pawn shops and garage sales.

In the Shamanic traditions, a Shaman will go into the astral plane to retrieve parts of your soul that have fragmented due to pain and trauma. I’ve been working with that modality and am deeply fascinated by the parallels that I see between this ancient healing art and djing. These selections came together as a soul retrieval of sorts. With this mix I am reaching into the astral plane beyond time to when I was in high school with the sonic remedy I needed to get through the chaos.

Recorded live at ESP HiFi the Japanese inspired hi-fi stereo vinyl bar in Denver when I was invited by Nico & Manny of Peer Review

I hope that anyone who hears this enjoys this Wax Report and perhaps your high school self will also get some healing from these selections.

XOXO

As some people seem to have problems accessing our podcasts, i'm going to put this up here too. A shorter version of this podcast is here - http://soundcloud.com/warmhq/jd-twitch-optimo-bass-and-bleeps

In the late 80s as house music exploded across the UK British producers started to take the new electronic strains coming out of the United States and added their own distinctive British twist to them. Artists such as Bang The Party, No Smoke, Baby Ford, Renegade Soundwave and A Guy Called Gerald amongst many others were releasing distinctive records that worked on the dance floor as effectively as anything coming out of Chicago, New York or Detroit. Then there was Unique 3. From Bradford, they were arguably the first UK act to really bring the BASS and in particular the sub bass to UK electronic music in a way that it hadn't featured before. Britain's deep affinity with reggae and the exposure of many to severely bass heavy reggae sound systems meant it was an inevitability that bass was going to become a distinctive factor and Unique 3's huge (and sadly somewhat forgotten) influence on what came out of the UK cannot be understated: hardcore, drum and bass, dubstep and current UK Bass variants all owe something to Unique 3's bassprints, several of which are included on this podcast. (The earliest, The Theme, dates back to 1989 and still sounds fresh 22 years later.)

In their wake, from the north of England came Warp records and the wave of Sheffield Bass, or Bass and Bleep records (or whatever you want to call them) that begat a thousand imitators.  Once again an often overlooked character is majorly responsible for so much of this music - the mighty Rob Gordon (co founder of Warp and remixer and producer extraordinaire), whom to me is as important a figure in dance music history as any legend one may care to mention. These records had a massive impact on myself and my then dj partner Brainstorm. We were obsessed with bleeps and bass and these futuristic sounds that sounded unlike anything else, especially when blasting out of a huge sound system. We were very fortunate that our club night UFO, which soon morphed into Pure, had possibly the most powerful system in the country. When the bass drop in LFO's "LFO" came in the whole building would quiver and the music would be drowned out by shrieks and screams of delight. Records by Nightmares On Wax, Sweet Exorcist, Juno, XON and a legion of others will be with me as long as I live, and should so many years of sonic abuse one day render my hearing kaput, it's slightly reassuring to know that I'll always be able to FEEL the power of them as they shift masses of air through speakers with their sub bass and low frequency oscillations.

Over the ensuing years I've followed all strains of UK dance music with varying degrees of interest. The last couple of years have been deeply satisfying as records that come from the same mould as that golden 1989 - 91 era (but with a sound inherently modern rather than trying to recreate the past - something so much modern dance music is guilty of) have become more prominent. Artist such as Ramadanman in his various guises, Julio Bashmore and a host of others have brought back the bass, syncopated rhythms and sometimes the bleeps at a manageably groovesome tempo that is sexier, sonically more interesting and more powerful, to my ears, than a zillion unimaginative and derivative deep house or minimal clones. They are pushing boundaries which for me is what electronic music was always meant to do and was one of thee main, but often long undelivered promises of techno.  This mix is 40 tracks of UK Bass music past, present and future (there are actually two non British tracks included. A prize to anyone who spots them) and is a distinctively British sound that in its original form didn't really translate outside the UK, though its mutant offspring have gone on to reverberate around the globe. Old and new sit side by side all (imo) sharing some dna, intentional or otherwise with those Unique 3 records that first lit up my ears 22 years ago. Here's to the next 22 years of UK dance hybrids!


Once again we aren't making a tracklisting available for the podcast but if you want to know what anything is, feel free to get in touch and we will let you know. Nearly all the music contained here is from vinyl records so any audio imperfections are a result of the age and wear of the records; many of the older 12"s on here received a LOT of club abuse. The mix is LONG, contains 40 tracks, lasts 130 minutes and the download is a 192kbps mp3 (188mb). Enjoy, and please, don't listen to it on crummy laptop speakers as yr going to miss the whole point.
