In the lead-up to Love International 2021, we’re launching Transmission to Tisno on crackaud.io – a series of b2b mixes from separate locations, featuring festival favourites and new artists joining the line-up this year.

SPE:C boss Darwin links with London-based DJ and fellow sub-bass fiend Parris. Their b2b is expectedly heavy as they race through tracks from the likes of LCY and LSDXOXO, before meandering through misty-eyed vibes thanks to a touch of trance.

Darwin (@darwinspec) juggles many different roles in dance music as well as she juggles her records in the DJ booth. The Canadian-born, Berlin-based artist runs her own REEF parties at Berghain, and has nurtured a wealth of emerging talents on her SPE:C label. She is also the founder of Clean Scene, a climate action collective that wants to explore a more sustainable future for dance music. They recently authored a stark report about the industry's carbon footprint, which you can read through cleanscene.club/report.pdf. 

Darwin's sound is rooted in various UK styles, from bass to dubstep, garage to breakbeat. That is evident in the 100-minute mix she lays down for us this week. It opens with thoughts about environmentalism and some indigenous jungle recordings before grinding through chunky Afro drum patterns and supersized bass. The pressure builds throughout, the cavernous rhythms grow ever more muscular as the urge to snake your body becomes overwhelming. It's a perfectly balanced, well-controlled mix that showcases the irresistible power of heavyweight bass music.

Bienvenida TraTraTrax Sound Sistema, the joint alias of TraTraTrax co-founders Verraco, Nyksan and DJ Lomalinda.

As founders of the Colombian imprint, the trio have led a wave of experimentation and innovation in the global club underground, platforming the hybrid electronic sounds of Latin America while also pushing UK-born genres such as dubstep and garage into new sonic territories. Running alongside our November issue cover story, written by Rachel Grace Almeida, this cover mix is a deep, near-three hour rhythmic odyssey through destabilising techno, murky bass music, guaracha, dubstep and much more. There may even be some never-before-heard forthcoming TraTraTrax releases thrown into the fold – listen closely.

@TraTraTrax co-founder @verraco showcases his upfront DJ style with a 90-minute mix of hybrid sounds.

"I wanted to make a mix that could be listened to at home, but that at the same time reflects part of what my DJing is today. That's why I decided to record it with an Allen & Heath Xone:92 mixer and three CDJs and inject my approach and technique, I guess. I thought about the tracklist for almost two months, trying to make it a document that can be listened today, but hopefully also revisited as time goes by."
