Captain Mustache | HÖR - March 28 / 2024

Moby got his big break in the '90s when he released the hit "Go" followed by the hugely successful studio album Play, which has been included in countless movie and TV soundtracks. But beyond the limelight, the US artist has also gone through immense struggle. Raised in a working-class family in a wealthy part of Connecticut, he often felt displaced as a child, eventually moving to a disused factory space to make music before finally relocating to New York and trying his hand at being a DJ. 

In this interview, Moby reflects on the early days of his time in New York. Rejected from all the record labels he sent his demos to, he felt like an outsider, choosing to frequent clubs like The Loft and Paradise Garage before finally becoming a resident DJ at the now-defunct club Mars. He also talks about living with panic disorder, anxiety, alcohol and drug abuse, and how he's turned his life towards activism and animal rights. Listen to the episode in full.

https://soundcloud.com/jordannocturne: This mix is heavily inspired by our parties at The Hack Club in Belfast, which is a pretty raucous affair in a local working men's club in the East of the City. The mix starts off around 105 bpm, keeping it at a nice low tempo with favorites from HiFi Sean, Eden Burns, and Fantastic Man before building toward a more peak-time club energy over the two hours. There are tracks from Vanessa Worm, and Theus Mago as well as the new Justin Cudmore track on a new label we have launched as The Night Institute. There are tracks from my Polari Records family, in the form of Shay Shaz and Micropacer, off the new 'No Tears in the Backroom' compilation and I've included both originals from my new release on Jennifer Cardini's Correspondant label.

Jordan Nocturne has been soundtracking parties in sweatbox clubs, festivals and raucous afterparties with his propulsive approach to electronic music for two decades.

The Nocturne schedule these days includes stops in Berlin, New York, Japan & London and has resulted in an uncompromising attitude to club culture that has been cultivated through playing some of the worlds leading underground parties. Jordan has soundtracked stand-out sessions at the helm of Pikes Ibiza, Fabric London, Sub Club in Glasgow and his own cult party, The Night Institute in Belfast. In 2023 The Night Institute was nominated 'Best Club Event', in the DJ Mag Best of British awards, cementing it's position as a refuge for the city's diverse characters that are looking for an alternative after-dark.

The prolific Nocturne Edits series was a runaway success, demanding several vinyl represses, while Jordan's uplifting take on house, disco and techno has found favour with Peggy Gou, Jennifer Cardini, Cormac & Erol Alkan to name just a few.

This ascent has seen the world's leading dance music institutions calling upon Jordan, with Nocturne mixes for Circoloco, DJ Mag, Mixmag and Feel My Bicep sitting comfortably alongside weekend guest mixes on Radio 1 and 6 Music.

2024 sees Jordan accelerate internationally, with a debut at the seminal Panorama Bar in Berlin, as well as tours to Australia and the USA, while maintaining a commanding studio output that continues to find homes in the playlists of the electronic music's most influential artists

Roman Flügel - 11 May 2024

No matter what sounds you profess to be your music of choice, chances are, that at some point over the last five years, you will have got your rocks off to Matt Edwards.
As Matthew E he fashions club-based, dancefloor slayers. Under that aegis he’s updated the classic Chi-town, jackin’ sound beloved of house aficionados and layered it with fractured funk, belligerent, oddball beats and mechanical soul.

If Matthew E is all about the Saturday Night Fever, then, by contrast, Rekid is the slower, more deliberate, rhythmical funk of the mid-week mayhem. Its well-intentioned muscular intensity making it perfect soulful sustenance.

Quiet Village is something else all together. A collaboration with long-time musical sparring partner Joel Martin (a vinyl freak, like Mr Edwards, who works in esteemed auction house Christie’s pop department), it’s sample-based music which veers from drawn out disco-not-disco delirium to evocative, under-stated soundscapes.

Sea Devils - you keeping up at the back? – is undeniable electronic pop brilliance. Working with Tom from Cagedbaby, it’s the least niche of Matt’s projects and thanks to Sea Devils alluring pop dance grooves they’ll no doubt be shagging the upper reaches of the hit parade sometime soon.

Last, but by no means least etc, etc, etc, is Radio Slave. Perhaps Matt’s most instantly recognisable nom de guerre, thanks in part to his inspirational melding of Kylie’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head to New Order’s Blue Monday, this is Matt’s DJ moniker and the guise under which he completes his incendiary remixes and re-edits.

However, before such sonic schizophrenia gets you calling for the men in white coats, just feel the quality and consider Matt’s legacy. Fired by the first wave of acid house, Matt gained his musical spurs by partying to dance music that was just that: music you danced to, irrespective of tribal factions.

This was the raison d’être he acknowledged when he took to the decks, first at London’s legendary Milk Bar in 1992, then onto the, then, recently opened Ministry Of Sound and then to parties across the country, most notably in Wales – where he was a regular at free parties – and in Brighton, his home since 1998.

His love of re-edits, dance music’s oft-forgotten backbone, led Matt into the studio himself. His own re-edits and remixes, such as the aforementioned epoch-defining re-imagining for Ms Minogue, soon gave way to his own productions and since the floodgates opened there’s been no stopping the man known as, erm, Matthew E, Quiet Village, Sea Devils, Rekid and Radio Slave.

He’s released records for Skint, Soul Jazz, Classic, Whatever We Want, and he’s worked with fellow travellers, Belgium’s The Glimmers. If Matt comes up with another two projects he’ll have enough alter egos for every day of the week.

Psychologists would probably have a field day with him; mercifully, we don’t have to worry about any crisis of identity, we just get to keep on dancing.

Groove Podcast 419 - Joyce Muniz

Ahead of their performance at our We Are Not Alone x Movement Detroit official afterparty this Sunday, we are proud to welcome the legendary Paranoid London to our BPitch podcast series! 

Paranoid London have become synonymous with stripping acid house back down to its basics. Rescuing the sound from smiley faces, rave, and sugary excess. Referencing instead its gay, black, American roots. Taking the underground overground. Knocking out not hands-in-the-air anthems, but rough, rude, raw jack. Not safe, slick, or soulless, but joints purposely over-driven, distorted, and full of tape hiss.

Slather on your sunscreen because @theokottis gives us the soundtrack of a neverending summer! Lightfooted but stomping in a nappy, melodically-charged way, shifting seamlessly between different genres creating an effective whole as a result. He snuck in a favorite track that is yet to be released this summer!

Electronic music is in our DNA, and we cover the full musical spectrum ranging from disco to house, from intelligent dance music to techno, and everything in between. At DGTL, we differentiate with balanced programming. By giving talent a platform, we can develop our own headliners and form long-lasting relationships with artists from early on.

DGTL builds bridges between music styles and genres, aiming to blend different audiences and cultures. Our line-ups are a combination of the power of our global DGTL brand, and all the beauty that local cultures hold. We want to be inclusive for every gender, sexual orientation, origin, color and country. Everyone always should be and feel welcome at DGTL.

With DGTL Records we build on our festival’s musical theme of an evocative cross section of the sounds and styles; showcasing forward thinking, cutting edge artists. Besides this, the label also functions as a platform for newcomers. This results in the creation of a coherent selection of music with a true family vibe; we want artists to feel connected to the label, the people behind it and to the other artists. 

Our in-house label DGTL Records emerged from the DGTL festival brand and has a single focus on music and community. It combines both upcoming talents together with established artists, bringing unique music and cross-over sounds that both add to the electronic music spectrum.
