Recording of Laksa's set at Dekmantel Selectors 2021.

"I feel that this set is a good representation of the tunes I like to rep, with a contrast of moods and dynamic style of mixing. The first 10-15 min section is quite memorable for me, as I was really enjoying the energy the tunes were bringing out of each other. The third tune, which is from Florentino, is quite an upfront percussive banger, but when it comes in from the DJ Boss tune it’s just got a straight-up sexy quality, haha. Then the Youngsta tune after it just amplifies the hype. Plus: I got to give a shout to re:ni as I got very, very hyped playing one of her new bits! The Sputnik One bit sounding bloody epic too, and I played 3 tunes from Amor Satyr/Siu Mata – so I got to give him a special mention too!"

Pressure Dome label boss, Jen Hartley – better known as Yushh – is next to supply a flagship Crack Mix.

“I'm into so many different styles at the minute so it was hard deciding on the vibe I wanted to go for, so there are lots of energy shifts throughout the mix,” she tells us. “It's got some beautiful moments, some deep, moody moments and – of course – some wonky, weirdo high-energy bangers. I also wanted to take the opportunity to showcase some incredible new music from mates, some forthcoming Pressure Dome, and a new remix I've been working on, all of which I'm excited to share!”

Crack Mix 488: Yushh

Name: Adam Startin
Alias: Adam 2 (@adamtwo)
Pronouns: They/them
Location: Vancouver BC, Canada

Influences: 
The music I play is usually influenced by the seasons; happier playful sounds in warmer months, intense moody sounds in cooler months.  This mix is a particularly moody mix of atmospheric drum and bass, EBM and techno taking inspiration from artists such as Patrick Russell, Forest Drive West and Pessimist.  I also find myself using a lot of atmospheric noise to create abstract movie-like soundtracks taking inspiration from Rrose and Paleman; this particular movie soundtrack is a fictitious bleak sci-fi horror.  I also usually try to avoid playing music with 4x4 kick patterns.  

Affiliations/Residencies/Projects: 
My main affiliation/project right now is PPRZ Records, a Vancouver BC based record label and podcast series I run with DJ Hockey.  I also curated for 'Afrofuturism is NOW' (a label to showcase some of my favourite POC artists) and I currently sit on the board of directors for Active Passive who host 'experimental/ambient' shows/festivals on Galiano Island, BC.  I don't have any specific club residencies, but I play most regularly at Dolly, one of my favourite venues in Vancouver.

Favorite Quote: 
Use the desire of starting a new project as motivation for finishing your current project - Rick Rubin

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:
Wear ear protection in the club and in the studio all the time; don't let the ringing start to be your motivation to buy ear plugs.

Awash in bewitching textures, voices and fuzz tones, our latest Sunday Mix finds French-Irish artist and sound designer Zoë Mc Pherson distilling an increasingly distinct versatility over a charged mix built from tracks from the likes of Space Afrika, Rey Sapienz, Nesa Azadikhah and Grand River.

In their own words, the recording draws inspiration from a whole host of locations including Iran, New York, Poland, Uganda and Bristol, with plenty more music from "all over the world; from people I appreciate a lot and that I find touching, in depth and perfect for introvert moments." Ideal Sunday listening from the musician behind of our favourite new releases: March's mind-altering 'Pitch Blender' LP.
