Hessle Audio feat. Ben UFO & Pearson Sound - 21 August 2023

John Talabot is the acclaimed Spanish DJ and producer who has brought a real sense of melody and occasion to house and techno. The Hivern Discs boss, as well as releasing a standout album in ƒIN, and fine collaborations with Axel Boman and Pional, is also an in-demand remixer celebrated for being able to create majestical grooves from originals by people like The xx and Shit Robot. He has also put together a stunning DJ Kicks mix and now he has been in the booth again, putting together a typically epic podcast for our on going series. 

Across the course of one and a half hours, the Barcelona based Talabot lays out his musical modus operandi in all its glory: serene house riddled with melody, dreamy pads and wavy tones that speak to the soul. With a rather blissed out and dreamy undercurrent, he slowly works through house old and new and keeps a strong, compelling groove present and correct at all times. Officially entitled "Post Summer Melodies" by Talabot, this mix is full of just that, and is sure to keep you warm long after the sun has gone.

Headman/Robi Insinna introduces Relish Industria, a new series from the ever evolving label head which will showcase a wealth of the electronic's rising stars. Each release will be A compilation EP, featuring various artists with Vol I setting the standard with Mondowski, Maya Danon and a rework from Headman's own '6 Album' feat Red Axes.

The first track comes from Bordeaux based Mondowski, known well for his residency at his very own 'Shadowplay' at the iBoat.  He draws inspirations from techno to new-wave and electro to rock and acid house. "Cry wolf“ is a dark, slow repetitive atmospheric film Noir-esque affair with cold synths.  He is currently working on his third EP as well as various other projects.

"So you say“ is the second release of Maya Danon, a Tel Aviv based musician, sound artist and producer, who has featured previously on Relish.  Her first track 'Dazed' was featured on REPVI and received strong support from the likes of Shit Robot. Again she delivers an organic techno track with a twist, that shows her feel for sounds and groove.

The final track on Relish Industria I, is Headman's rework of 'Barbarism'. It features I’m a cliché’s Red Axes.The original version was released on last years '6' album with huge support across the board including Ivan Smagghe and Mexico's Rebolledo. The rework has taken on an Italo disco vibe, yet keeps the dark and driving elements and uses new exclusive parts.

Joy Orbsion is someone we have a long and fruitful relationship with here at Dekmantel. He is, and always has been, a pure embodiment of UK dance music. His sound is steeped in English musical history (often explicitly in the form of sampled monologues) but also very much makes a new history of its own. He’s had countless underground hits from his definitive post-dubstep breakthrough ‘Hyph Mngo’ to his peak time tech tools with Boddika, and each one marks a mini reinvention of his style. What ties them all together, though, is O’Grady’s unique penchant for blending garage, bass, funky, house, techno and old school jungle into his own fresh concoctions. 

The two hour podcast he has served up here -as a perfect warm up to our festival this weekend- is split into two parts. Says the artist himself, “the first half is basically a way of showcasing producers that are doing great things at the moment and is completely made up of new, unreleased music, and the second half is basically winding things down with a load of stuff from my record collection. A come down, of sorts.” Starting with a spoken word snippet from his jungle playing uncle Ray Keith, the mix is initially atmospheric and moody, with sleek and stripped back drums and smeared synths making for a heady and intimate mood. After picking up through skewed bass patterns and skeletal techno, the second half seduces with elegiac rhythms, jazz selections and spoken word tracks as well as delicious soul sounds, reggae and stoned broken beat.  The results show exactly where Orbison is at musically, as well as offering an insight into where he has come from.

Ben UFO b2b Joy O - Recorded at XOYO in August 2019 (Calibre Residency)

This set was recorded at the start of this year at Nowadays in NYC. I closed out the party after Aurora Halal, from 2am - 7am. 
It was such a wonderful night, and with clubs around the world still closed I thought the set would work well as something to listen to this NYE, however you might be spending it.

Happy new year - hoping to see you again in 2021 💫

This set was originally broadcast on Nowadays' Patreon channel - https://www.patreon.com/nowadaysnyc/posts - please consider supporting them if you can.

Live at Nowadays - 18.01.20
