Mit euch selbst nur!.mp3

Tribal atmospherics and wonky cosmic disco from the worldly French duo.

Interview with @nummer:

"90% of this mix is made out of tracks produced (and/or released) by friends of ours (Benoit B, Sentiments, Geena, Deep Nalstrom, Telephones, FIO to name a few). A lot of these tracks are absolutely killer and don’t necessarily get all the attention they deserve so we thought this would be a great occasion to serve them up! We’ve also included a couple of our own recent studio experimentations and one track off our EP on Animals Dancing coming out later this year."

With their first LP in over three years, Californian psych-dub duo Peaking Lights offer an outlet from the mundane with a kaleidoscopic collection of lo-fi, escapist-electronic pop. Over their illustrious twelve-year-plus career, the husband and wife duo of Aaron Coyes and Indra Dunis have set themselves apart with their characteristic dreamy, and melancholic sound that blends together elements of dub, and delicate-but-quirky electronics. E S C A P E, Peaking Light’s sixth album, and first for Dekmantel, finds them at their finest, replete with atmospheric landscapes crafted out of homemade-percussive loops, that sit alongside wondrous electronic pop and krautrock-like hooks, all tied together by Indra Dunis’ composed and hypnotic vocal charm.

Now based out in Amsterdam, and having firmly established themselves on Dekmantel with their 2018 EP Sea of Sand, Coyes and Dunis’ unique brand of indie-synthwave yet further explores their ongoing delve into transcendental, psychedelic music. With E S C A P E, the production duo illustrate their pragmatic use of instrumentation and dubbing to create more heady and celestial avant-pop. From the very outset on opening track ‘Dharma’, the band’s iconic retro-dub aesthetic kicks in, before being accompanied by a litany of drum machines, sweeping compressed effects, and Dunis’ hypnotic serene vocals. Coyes, somewhat of a connoisseur and collector of varying studio gear adopts his steadfast dynamic approach to production, playing with new mixing techniques, tape loops, compression and effects throughout. It’s this freedom to indulge, and create new instruments, processes and sounds that have made Peaking Lights unique; an ever-present industriousness that characterises E S C A P E, whether it be on the deep textures of ‘Change Always Comes’, to the cathartic 80s pre-rave-wave of ‘The Damned’.  

E S C A P E is a vibrant moment full of multi-spectral melodies crafted in an aesthetic the group have excelled in and made their own; a style exemplified by their breakout 2011 LP 936. And throughout E S C A P E, whether it’s on the esoteric ‘Eyes Alive’ to the mesmerising beach rhythms of ‘Dreams’, Peaking Lights’ rich and reverberated sonic palette shines through. For both dreamers and dancers alike, the latest offering to Peaking Lights’ illustrious catalogue is a true mind-expanding and fantastical listen full of passion and catharsis.

DJ Tinder @ TESTFM — 20/09/2020

Hey hey hey. Just cause we’re closed for a bit doesn’t mean we should lose the groove. Continuing with some warm air from the past summer, here’s a recording of local wizard Jenny Om doing it techy, proggy, breaky and rolly. Recorded in front of a live audience.

Post Recording 012 - Jenny Om

Amsterdam’s champion and Stalwart Dr San Proper takes over the mix series for a 2 hour journey through electronica, dub, pop and anything that dares to sit in between. An undeniable showman, this mix gets the full Proper treatment; expect unpredictable blends countered with eclectic selections, all wrapped up with a healthy dose of twisted soul and groove. It’s that diverse sound which has carved out a name for himself since his first string of releases on Rush Hour many moons ago in the mid 2000’s;  and still rings strong  on his upcoming record on MUSAR, riffy, bassy and everything you associate with the San P sound.

Off Rotation is a musical exploration through sonic soundscapes less frequented. Ambient excursions, dubbed out dusty cuts, post punk rarities and afro-inspired downtempo (as well as many winding detours in between).

Off Rotation #10 (We might be in lockdown but Stammtisch is a feeling mix)

Nieuw hoofdstuk voor de KlankCast van Selva.

 Barend en Lars, ze zijn al bevriend sinds de middelbare school. Beide liefhebbers van de soulful side van house en disco. Maar ze wagen zich steeds meer aan de wat meer gloomy kant van het muzikale spectrum. Dat is hoorbaar in deze mix waar een fusie van deze stijlen tot stand is gekomen. 

Een kleine toelichting van de keuze van bepaalde nummers:

Tim Maia - Que Beleza (Esa Marvin Granger Rework)

In de muziekwereld is de Braziliaanse Tim Maia een gerenommeerde zanger, en niemand minder dan de Zuid-Afrikaanse Esa Marvin Granger heeft van “Que Beleza” een rework gemaakt. Dit psychedelisch getinte nummer brengt een tribal-achtige sfeer met zich mee.

Phenomenal Handclap Band - Riot (Cooper Saver Remix)

Vers van de pers (2 maanden oud op tijd van schrijven) gereleased op Toy Tonics, combineert de Phenomenal Handclap Band uit New York City “Organische Dance” met “Nu Disco”. Wat krijg je dan? Riot! Wie weet een toekomstige festival klapper.

Tracklist:

Tim Maia - Que Beleza (Esa Marvin Granger Rework)
Minus 8 - Mondo Boppp
Perdu - Yesterday’s Tomorrow
Sandboards - Holiday Illusion
Special Occasion - Flyin’ to Santa Barbara
Ray Mang - Big Bambu
Magic Source - Lovestruck (Africaine 808 Nyc No Wave Dub)
Phenomenal Handclap Band - Riot (Cooper Saver Remix)
Gino Soccio - Remember
Alex Rosa - Sistem
Databoy 78 - Thursday (Lexx Remix)
Ponzu Island - Super Koto (Andras Fox Ext. Mix)
Surface - When Your X Wants You Back (Previously Unavailable)
