005 - MORIS

Our final DSSmix of the year is brought to you by Salvadoran artist Arista, based in Barcelona, Spain!

____________

1. How and where was the mix recorded?

I recorded this set some hours ago December 3 of 2024,  in one of my favorite places that I had played in Barcelona till the moment, at 303 audiophile. They have openned their booth for me all the time that I need to, and for that I feel very very blessed and thankful.

2. Can you tell us about the idea behind the mix?

Inspired by the DSS! sound and how the cofounder Leo invited me to this one. I started the journey of this set thinking on some faces of my collection, It’s a side of my music that I haven’t been able to explore and share yet, a side designed for a club and the joy of  sharing into the dance floor.

It’s a mix of my music that is quite penetrating to the brain, like a bullet, and at the same time powerful, but leaving behind my dark and abstract side, bringuing that groovy gems ( My way of groove)  that I have. It’s one of those records that fills me with joy and happy tones.


3. What are you up to next? Projects, ideas…
I’m starting to share more music in my new musical habitat where I want to share more of my vision and the story I tell through my music, next year is packed with a lot of excitement and dates to share my collection and the stories through my sound. Soon, I’ll be releasing music with my duo, Acid Partners, as well as some unreleased tracks I’ve been holding onto for a while.

I want to continue growing the scene that shaped me in Central America, carrying on with my vinyl store project, Vórtice, and spreading culture in my region with all the knowledge I’ve absorbed over these past months moviging into Europe.

I still feel like I’m finding my path through my music, but we’re always walking it together, and thanks to it, I’ve found my way to where I am now.


4.- Lastly, for you what is Dance, Shake, Swing!?
For me, Dance Shake Swing undoubtedly conveys a lot of Sazon latino,  and the urge to move your feet and dance. It really defines its sound and is without a doubt a space where joy is truly shared. Sonido fresco, elegante y con mucho groove.

MUCHAS GRACIAS CHAMAAAAS

DSSmix #16 - Arista

PRE-ORDER: https://outsidein-distribution.com/product/octobo-all-in-small/

OCTOTRAX comes to life through a double LP. A debut that lays the foundation for a catalogue driven by exploration and evolution, revealing a snapshot of what has and will be.

A collection of works, each a facet of the same stone, expressed with progressive arrangements and trance essences.

Emerging from a time of rediscovery, this is the result of a pursuit to birth something enduring. More than a definitive statement, it captures a moment of clarity and renewal, a step toward the future with purpose.

octobo is to be written ALL IN SMALL!

Danceopolis presents DR-4 - From Monkeys 2 Cyborgs - Babylon 5

Once, we were nothing but primates, wandering through the mist of time, our DNA inscribed with mysteries beyond our comprehension. Then came the intervention, a rewriting of our genetic code, a silent conspiracy etched into our evolution. From the jungle to the metropolis, from instinct to intelligence, from man to machine. The final step is inevitable : full symbiosis with the digital realm, where flesh dissolves into circuits, and consciousness becomes code.

Welcome to From Monkeys 2 Cyborgs, the next chapter in the Danceopolis saga. This project, codenamed Babylon 5, is a hybrid fusion of late 80s and early 90s Goa trance and progressive trance, colliding head-on with the raw energy of deep house, new beat, and acid house from the same era. Timeless influences, modern engineering crafted to push the boundaries of harmony, speed, and style. This time, the contrast is darker, the pulse is heavier, and the sonic weapons are sharper.

The music will first be available in digital format, a gateway to the upcoming vinyl editions, each one a unique, exclusive artifact for the true believers. Use these sounds as your weapons of mass defense in your next sets. The future is now. Will you evolve or be left behind ? Music is the reflect of the world were we living y’all…

Babylon 5

Release Date : May 2025

SAISEI founder Junki Inoue continues his vital archival work uncovering the riches of Japan’s distinctive electronic music scene and bringing them to new audiences around the world.

HERO U.D.A. aka Hiroyoshi Udaka is not someone you can easily google, but he’s sure lived a life worth retelling. His story starts back in the late 80s when, inspired by the acid house emanating from the UK — during what was fondly christened the Second Summer of Love — he picked up DJing and made the move from Japan to London. Throughout the 90s he DJed at underground techno institutions like London’s The End, CLUB UK and Silver Fish, as well as at the infamous Tribal Gathering raves, periodically returning to Japan to support techno greats like Colin Dale, Mad Mike, Suburban Knight and D. Wynn on tour.
The tracks on this EP, previously unreleased except for one, were all recorded after Udaka moved back from London to Tokyo, between 2002 and 2005. Yet they sound strikingly modern, drawing on a rich range of sounds that have come back round again two decades later: broken beat, acid jazz, dub and breaks. Deceptively simple grooves are given depth by layers of textures and micro samples, for example the surface noise on ‘On The Way’ that glues together an otherwise sparse skeleton of dubby pads and body popping drums. ‘Mature Missile’, ‘So Good’ and ‘Night Driver’ employ raw broken beat templates with acid accents, whimsical melodies and vocal interjections for a playful mood. ‘Sin City’ takes a darker turn, off-key piano hits and plunging bass adding to the wonkiness. The EP closes with a wiggly vignette, ‘222AM’, reminiscent of early 00s contemporaries like Mouse On Mars. Now these hidden treasures from Udaka’s archive gain a new life on SAISEI.

SAISEI is a Japanese word which translates to ‘reproduction’ and ‘to play’ (as in playing records). Japanese culture is widely known for its traditional nature just as much as it is for being forward into the future and this label’s concept does justice to exactly that. Having started digging for records as early as 16 years old, Junki Inoue delved into productions from 1990s Japan to uncover these native gems. SAISEI’s core concept is to recapture and reintroduce unique pieces of Japanese electronic music onto vinyl, to an audience it never reached before as most of this music was only released in Japan.
