Live From Altær (June 17, 2022)

For this episode and for the followings, I wanted to give the floor to some artists I admire and respect a lot. I believe everyone has ideas, a voice, opinions they want to fight for. I believe we can aspire for a better future world through music. Today, I have invited @djauspex to record a Mixing for a Cause podcast.

MFC 28 : Auspex - A Broken System

Having cut his teeth over the years coming up through Brooklyn’s now imperiled warehouse scene, Auspex has solidified himself as a regular fixture and contributor to its strong underground techno community, very much at home in and a part of New York City's burgeoning and vibrant queer nightlife scene. Known for creating energetic and raucous dance floors and driving them to bedlam, blending skittering techno and blistering industrial with anthemic rave and glitchy breaks to create dense and textured overtures, his uncompromising and unapologetic style has seen him tapped to play as support for many international touring acts from Phase Fatale to Randomer, Kamikaze Space Programme to Headless Horseman, Juan Atkins to Rebekah—as well as being called upon to throw down on the regular at NYC techno institutions and parties such as Unter, The Black Hole and The Bunker New York. As the club scene of NYC has emerged to the forefront of the scene, he has also been tapped by The Good Room, Elsewhere, before settling in with his residency party Altær at new subterranean techno haunt, Basement. The past few years have also seen him making multiple appearances in Berlin at such notable parties as Staub and Pornceptual, and venues like Griessmuehle and ://about blank.  

For this mix, he wanted to highlight Intentional Spaces for Queer and Marginalized Persons.

Auspex: “When I got down to thinking about a cause, I couldn’t help but to feel a bit powerless in the face of so many great causes and questioning how I can really affect change in the world as a mere individual when the systems we operate under are irrevocably damaged. So, I began to question what I am most passionate about and where I most influential, and realized it was in fact in the furnishing and preservation of community dance spaces for queer and marginalized persons, enclaves of powerful manifestations and modern day magics. Recently, this gave rise to the concept of “intentional spaces,” refuges from the capitalistic machinations of corporate money proliferating the dance music landscape, spaces where the purpose of what these cells of counter-culture influence has been lost over the years. So, my truest passion and cause lies within the continuation and proliferation of these spaces—how do we preserve them and their intent? How do we coalesce behind similar ideals and affect real change towards the greater causes that need our attention by using these spaces as think tanks for the greater good? All questions with no end point, but what’s most important is in positing them within our communities in the first place and creating action where we can. The rave isn’t simply a place for hedonistic excess, although it very well can serve one’s needs in those ways, but rather, a place in which like-minded and forward-thinking individuals can begin to redefine the parameters of what society can and should look like, if only on the micro level. So, in setting a mission statement to create “intentional space” we are setting forth with a purpose to provide and accomplish something broader and grander than simply a night out and re-establishing a framework for the necessary and cathartic work that nightlife spaces can provide for marginalized but also reinterpreting them as opportunities for the coalescence of ideas that fuel the resistance to tyranny in all its forms all around us.”

OECUS Podcast 391 // AUSPEX

Emerging from Brooklyn’s vibrant warehouse scene, @djauspex has firmly established himself as a powerhouse in the underground techno community. 
As a tireless organizer deeply embedded in the city’s queer nightlife, he transforms techno into a ritual of power, self-exploration, and spiritual catharsis. His sets are an incantation of dark, throbbing rhythms from the furthest reaches of the solar system that guide listeners on a mesmerizing journey.

Auspex's uncompromising style has caught the attention of international heavyweights, sharing the stage with the likes of Phase Fatale, Randomer, Juan Atkins, and Rebekah. He’s a familiar face at NYC techno staples of yore like Unter, The Black Hole, and The Bunker New York, and has taken his talents from San Francisco to Miami and Washington, D.C. His frequent appearances in Berlin's techno scene have seen him grace legendary parties and clubs, including Staub, Pornceptual. 
This summer, Auspex made his debut at Berghain, further solidifying his presence on the global techno stage. 

In 2018, Auspex launched his party series, Dominion, in response to the growing demand for techno in NYC. The series quickly gained traction, becoming a hotspot for music enthusiasts. His growing profile led to him being invited to play the opening night of Brooklyn’s newest club, Basement, where he established a residency with his conceptual party, ALTÆR, which has hosted an impressive lineup of international talents and created a haven for cathartic dance experiences within the queer community.

Drawing from his background as a classically trained multi-instrumentalist and sound designer, Auspex released his debut production work in early 2019, setting the stage for an impressive catalog of EPs across esteemed labels like Soma Records, Diffuse Reality, Otomo, Mainmise and more. 
His vision culminated in the creation of his own imprint, Oath, where he curates his work with a uniquely personal touch.

GUEST SERIES : Auspex

Ahh we just love the smell of vinyl in the morning! Ok so it's the afternoon, but to be honest we'll take wax at any time of day, which is why we jumped at the offer of an exclusive 100% vinyl mix from Kito Jempere.

The up-and-coming Russian producer has been making a lot of noise recently, with an EP for Brooklyn label, Let's Play House - which even scored a remix from Berlin's Palms Trax. Meanwhile his own imprint, Fata Morgana, has already hosted a string of remix EPs this year, showcasing a range of artists from Russia and eastern Europe.

Through his fetish for vinyl and dedication to searching for true underground artists, it's clear to see Kito's love for house runs deep. You can stream or download his exclusive mix here and head over to Kito's SoundCloud to get all the latest from him: https://soundcloud.com/kitojempere
