Joris Voorn - Balance 014, Mizuiro Mix CD1

For techno in Amsterdam, few do it better than Sandrien. The Dutch native has been collecting records in her hometown for the best part of two decades, and became a staple of the city’s underground scene through MAD2 – the club night she ran with friend Carlos Valdes. Building on the success of MAD2 she went onto establish Imprint – the night she’s best known for – which she ran at the much-loved Trouw club up until its closure at the beginning of 2015. In the years since she’s been playing out increasingly beyond the Dutch capital, with 2017 seeing her tour Asia and stop off in Berlin for regular appearances. This rise in popularity is a real testament to her prowess as a selector.

On 14th October she makes her Farringdon debut, so we didn’t hesitate in inviting her to record a mix for us to introduce herself. For her mix, she dropped a carefully-curated selection of ambient, IDM, broken beats and techno, before discussing her record digging habits and the scene in her hometown.

A little while back we premiered new music from @o-utlier, an up and coming London based producer who recently released on the new Secretsundaze sub label SZE. Prior to this he had previously rather impressively released music on the infamous label Soul people run by Fred P as well as Naif and Appian Sounds. His sound sees him blend intricate samples alongside delicately crafted soundscapes and ambient incarnations. His production embodies a youthful energy yet comes across as far more learned than you might perhaps expect. Over the coming years we anticipate him to take the next step, his music warrants that.

o.utlier: The 'Shine A Light On' Mix

When speaking with Domenic about ways to build the third Nautilus Rising podcast, we decided it should serve as another strand of his release - something that shines light on the sounds and influences that led to The Intruder, Time to Begin & Rain.

An expert 67 minutes of electro from someone widely considered to be one of the best DJs in the UK.

This is the first part of an all-night-set I played in Prague’s Ankali club on 24th of November 2017. The party lasted for almost 10 hours and these events took place between 22:57 and 01:50.

A Night at Ankali, Part 1 of 3

To immerse yourself in Yu Su’s music is to give way to sensation, like closing your eyes to better feel the warmth of the sun. There’s a purity and lightness that emits from her melodies in which keys, woodwinds and drums melt into effortless rhythms. Organically groovy and powerfully transportive, Yu Su’s productions float between coasts, inspiring moments of reflection with their meditative quality. The Vancouver-based Chinese artist holds a unique perspective and highly personal voice, and has quickly gained recognition within the electronic music scene with releases on labels such as Arcane, Genero, PPU and Wichelrode. In addition to her solo work, Yu Su also produces under the moniker You’re Me alongside partner Scott Gailey, creating more experimental and downtempo takes on house music. As a DJ, Yu Su crafts evocative musical narratives which touch on memories and introspections, providing a small window into her world with every mix.

Recorded with the idea of representing the person she’s become over the past year, Truancy Volume 201 is a powerful reflection on Yu Su’s direct experience with loss and love. Opening with a Liszt piece which stands for her childhood, then moving on to an improvised midi-keyboard duet with her partner, through one of her very first records purchased after seriously getting into music, and ending with a track from a favorite director’s film A Brighter Summer Day, the mix, in Yu Su’s words, “wasn’t really curated by me, but for me.” It’s an honor to share this serene mix and a pleasure to have had some words with the brilliant artist.

Sofay, who works in a Glasgow library by day, played a mesmerising batch of records during March's edition of RA Live at Brilliant Corners in London.

RA Live - 18.03.18 - Sofay at Brilliant Corners

Only 12 hours ago, all our equipment went off like crazy. Beeps, bleeps, flashing lights: everything indicated strange vibrations in the nightsky. It turned out to be two seperate sonic signals, transmitted by two seperate sources from within the Super Nature. We managed to record them both, and are happy to share them with you all.

#1 was made by @monamino. She sent us a collage of crystal clear earpleasers and inward spiraling spacial sounds that will explore the deepest caverns of your ears.

Take your time to check it out. The second one will follow later.

Josey Rebelle at Rainbow Disco Club 2018

Six years ago, Russian-born Marina Rubinstein was a raver living in Tel Aviv with dreams of becoming a DJ. After saving up enough money, she bought a one-way ticket to Berlin, where she quickly worked her way up from playing small rooms to 20 people to playing the world's biggest techno club, Berghain.

Dr. Rubinstein's story is a familiar one, but her love of '90s acid techno and life-affirming rave tunes helped the fledgling DJ to stand out in a city then dominated by darker, more hypnotic sounds. Today, she's a globally respected selector with a joyous, life-affirming style.

This week's FACT mix is a snapshot of Dr. Rubinstein's dreamier side, packed with hazy breakbeat, electro and acid; it rarely climbs above 115BPM, with tracks from Lake Haze, Holger Flinsch and Legowelt amongst the tracks that will have spotters taking notes. It's one for the 7am crew.
