The first set in a new mix series from your deviate host: Sammy B. 

"This all came about from a rather time-intensive and personal self-reflection on the music that has stood out for me (not constricted by any genre, time or date period). Music I’ve grown up with, has heavily influenced and in its most needed times accepted me and shone a light on the path when I’ve felt the most lost. I thought this would be a  straight forward ‘one off” ambient and atmospheric type mix - but its needing more exploration than that, so, this is part one… All thanks and credit is first and always to the artists".

Included on this mix:
Overlook
Nine Inch Nails
dBridge, Itti, Kabuki
Out of Fuel
Michael Andrews
Radiohead
S0jus1
Faithless
A Wave, A Mouth
Pink Floyd
Babe Roots
Zaflon
bvdub & James Bernard
Soulware
Fat Freddys Drop
The Upbeats
Burial

Deviate Guest Mix 015 - Eikai

A collaboration of two friends: Matic and Trisector aiming to create music that brings together elements they love about drum & bass and techno. For the last few years they have been exploring the deeper and more experimental side of the 170 spectrum in their Helsinki-based studio, in their DJ sets, and on their monthly IDA Radio show - Harmaa. Out Of Fuel's sound is a combination of influences one you could say is constantly changing. At the moment it can be described as a blend of deeper drum and bass, hypnotic techno, smoky dub, shoegaze influenced textures spiced with tight percussions, heavy bass and occasionally dirty breakbeats.

Their debut LP - entitled Geometric Landscapes will be released in November 2023 on Finnish label Straight Up Breakbeat. It explores these concepts to their extent, in long form format, with 9 carefully crafted and polished tracks. In their DJ sets they love to drop a bass heavy selection of deep, dark, dubby, hypnotic and atmospheric drum & bass. You can expect to hear anything from classics and hidden gems to fresh and unreleased cuts, as well as  stripped down rollers and halftime steppers to chopped breakbeat action and in-your-face technoid percussion onslaught.

Tracklist:

01. Out Of Fuel - Tulenisku
02. Antidote - Longers (Pessimist Remix)
03. Basic Rhythm - Sound Killa

Deviate Guest Mix 016 - Out Of Fuel

Like many artists, DJ's and producers - self promo is a difficult one. I struggle with this and amongst other things pre-gig anxiety. This final deviate for the year in all aspects of preparation and deliverance was on point. Out of Fuel, Eikai and Migz slammed it, total professional and amazing artists each of them. But for me mentally, I barely made my set which is why this is only 45ish mins long. This is throwing my total honesty out here in the open. I hardly ever upload livesets coz I am too self-critical at every slightly out moment. But from what I was feeling during this wrap up/end set for the night and last set in the most epic year for myself as a DJ, well I wanted to share it. So there you go. Maybe you dig it.. maybe you don't and also think I should just quit ;)  Enjoy... Sammy B over n out till 2024.

Back in September 2023 deviate saw Dennis Leick aka dreadmaul, drive a car load full of instruments and equipment from Mainz to Berlin. What followed was a completely original live-productions set. The vibe was beyond something special and truly legendary. We wanted to release this set despite some technical challenges with recording devices (as is the nature with “live”), its just too good to leave sitting on hard-drives. Thanks, peace and love out to the one and only dreadmaul and of course to all deviate supporters.

Since 1991 he has been DJ-ing and producing in local and international DnB scenes and circles. He has had releases on several labels including, Metro Recordings, Renegade, Wildstyle, Obsessions, Shake Up and Hard:Edged.

It saw many successful releases and there are future plans in the making to see its relaunch, so watch this space. 

X-Plorer is no stranger to Berlin, having been a Resident at the legendary Hard:Edged Club Night that saw its final rave end of 2007 in Berlin's infamous Watergate.

Deviate Guest Mix 001 - Itti

Philo proves you don't need decades of experience to understand and push boundaries of a genre. With national and international recognition, Philo's originally vinyl-exclusive selection has evolved over time into a digital hybrid in the pursuit of the best possible sound. Characteristics of her selection involve rough UK bass, deep amen, atmospheric dnb, half-time, dubby bassbin, jungle and footwork with a splash of classic 90s.

She has played club gigs across Germany as well as many festivals and holds keen interest and involvement with Deegree Recordings since 2020 moving into organizing and promoting too. Since February 2020 Philo hosts a radio show on the infamous jungletrain.net every second Wednesday at 11pm while also continuing to contribute journalistic endeavors regularly to the German drum & bass magazine, Trommel&Bass.

Deviate Guest Mix 002 - Philo

Yorobi (real name Josje Bijl) is an Amsterdam based DJ & producer who started out DJ-ing in 1999 after getting introduced to a pirate radio station (Nautic Radio Groningen) in her home town of Groningen. 
Yorobi had her own show at the local pirate station with strong focus on Drum and Bass, Hip Hop & Electro. She invited guests from all over town and occasionally hosted internationally known DJ's. Her own journey as a DJ began with her debut set in the basement of Vera (a club in Groningen). After that the ball was rolling, she played all over the country alongside local and internationally known artists (such as Flight, The Upbeats, Noisia, Black Sun Empire, Grooverider), as well as in the UK & in Belgium. In 2006 she relocated to http://jungletrain.net/ where she’s still broadcasting her bi-weekly live show.

A versatile artist working as a DJ, producer and visual artist, she draws influences from jungle and drum and bass as she has very firm roots in that scene but it doesn’t stop there. In her sets she incorporates all kinds of bass music related genres like juke, footwork, slowfast, dub, electro, half-time, hardcore, jungle tekno and more. Yorobi likes to operate on the left spectrum of bass music, weaving all kinds of genres and influences together because sonically they are all family and she loves eclectic coherent journeys when playing.

You can catch her live in various bars and clubs around Amsterdam, mainly at OT301, Hill Street Blues, Melkweg, Hunters Grand Café or an illegal rave somewhere outdoors. In recent years she has been playing further afield around Europe. In 2019 she’s played in London for the legendary Rupture night as well as for a night called Deviate in Berlin, Grelle Forelle in Vienna and Membrain Festival in Sibenik in Croatia. 

While 2020 has seen a definite slowdown in live gigs, it also marked the year where the first two collabs from her and Tim Reaper came out, “Rhodiola” came out on 12” on the German Parallax Recordings and “Drum Tree” came out on 12” as part of a kickstarter campaign to launch South-London based record shop and dubplate cutting house Disc World.

Deviate Guest Mix 003 - Yorobi

TH3 NEXT: Whilst growing up in East Germany, he was infected with Hip Hop after watching the movie “Beat Street”. His passion continued to be DJing, and after a spectacular escape from the GDR it was finally time for two turntables. 

In 2000, 10 years after starting out, he started to produce his own beats with an MPC2000XL, with a computer running other software completing his setup. He performed alongside various artists such as Rasco, Alies, Antipop, Consortium and Motion Man as well as supporting his friend DJ Fu (founder of the DRUMBULE Hamburg) with some slick scratches during DnB sets. It was at the DRUMBULE where he got to know JNS (Phokus) who, at that time, still produced Drum & Bass. Heavily influenced by the emerging Dubstep and Grime scene, they, along with MC Mindfuck, decided to introduce this relatively unknown genre of music known as DUBSTEP to the people of Hamburg.

NXT LVL was then born and took place once a month at the ASTRASTUBE and a year later, they started another regular Dubstep event, called “WOBWOB!”. Together with Deneh, Yann Ignition and The Vinylizer, they have played host to many international guests including N-TYPE, TES LA ROK, SKREAM, HEADHUNTER and LUKE ENVOY.

Deviate Guest Mix 006 - Enada

Hailing from Leipzig/Germany, mR_BLACk is best known for putting out a constant stream of mixes that embrace the deeper side of electronic music. Having grown up in a music loving environment and being a music collector and DJ since the 1990s, his sets are both versatile and consistent.

With a musical taste ranging from beatless ambient drones, hypnotic techno, deep dubstep to drum & bass and halfstep, he never shies from experimenting and surprising the audience. Most important to him for a set is getting the crowd in that certain mood of exploring the unknown while keeping the bass heavy and the atmosphere gloomy.
