We're extremely pleased to deliver the next edition of our mix series, in the form of this 3 hour chugging masterclass from Leeds legend John Paynter (@yeadonred).

With his origins in Punk bands and the social phenomenon that was acid house, John has been there and seen it all. 

The journey eventually led to the beginning of his DJ career at Outlaws Yacht Club in Leeds, then soon after was playing regular warm ups for a certain Andrew Weatherall at Todmorden's Golden Lion. 

John currently runs a record label, party and online music community known as Paisley Dark, which shines a light on the current zeitgeist of post punk inspired dance music in Leeds and further beyond, whilst regularly operating charity fundraisers for Shelter.

Tune in and we hope you enjoy the mix, we most certainly did ⚔️

Break Mode: It is a mix where the tracks aren’t easy to describe but are easy to move to and sound familiar nonetheless. Experimental, dub-inspired psychedelic dance music with a couple of Break Mode productions laced in.

In the sprawling, rain-soaked expanse of Portland, Oregon, Break Mode emerges as a sonic alchemist, illuminating the musical landscape with intricate tapestries of sound that defy conventional boundaries diving deep into the essence of musicality, exploring a spectrum ranging from the hypnotic cadence of dub and trip hop to the enigmatic textures of kraut-rock, left-field disco, and the pulsating beats of electro.

Ceaselessly navigating sonic landscapes Break Mode’s compositions, such as "Wash One" and "Stabs," transcend mere creations, evolving into profound experiences that delve into the core of human emotion. Tracks like "Bob the Dub" and "Banana Cabana," adorned with dreamy sun-soaked saxophone lines, offer listeners a tranquil escape, inviting them to unwind on the beach longside the ocean’s trance-inducing waves.

Break Mode's DJ mixes embark on rhythmic odysseys and mind-bending journeys, meticulously crafted for psychedelic dancefloors. They serve as a testament to his unparalleled ability to manipulate emotions through sound, all the while maintaining a profound understanding of the intricate interplay between these emotions and rhythm.

Stay tuned for Break Mode upcoming original compositions, remixes, and DJ mixes, promising an enthralling continuation of his sonic journey. Break Mode aka Gumar continuously works on these endeavors as well as side projects Wormbox and Freak Out! while also throwing events and managing the Bed of Roses label/collective.

Introducing Alessandro Rebella, affectionately known as Ale Rebi. Hailing from Savona and born in '73, he delves into the vibrant world of funk music, drawing inspiration from blaxploitation cinema and the rich tapestry of Italian cinema from the 60s and 70s. Notably, he remains one of the key figures in the Pollanet Squad, a revered entity for aficionados of 70s Italian detective stories.

His fervor for Italian genre cinema sparked in adolescence, propelling him to amass a collection of soundtracks, particularly from crime films where the pulsating rhythms of "crime funk" artists like Maestro Micalizzi enraptured him. Beyond this, he's an ardent admirer of disco, funk, and pop melodies crafted in Italy during the 70s and 80s. Always on the hunt for rare 45s or albums, he seeks to unearth hidden Italian gems from bygone eras, often shrouded in obscurity.

It was this passion that led him to birth DISCOPONENTE at the dawn of 2022. Through electrifying DJ sets primarily across Liguria, his mission is to illuminate and propagate what he fondly dubs as "New music from the past." Join Alessandro Rebella on a journey through time and sound, as he resurrects forgotten melodies and revitalizes Italy's musical heritage for contemporary audiences.
