Interview & tracklist: www.lowendtheorists.com/theory-therapy-mixes/25-other-joe

Theory Therapy 25 comes from someone Dan and I have wanted to have on the series for a long-time: producer, label-owner and audio engineer Joseph Buchan aka Other Joe. 

Joe has been responsible for some of the most interesting electronic music to come out of Australia in the last year. He’s released two incredible albums on two fantastic labels—DJ Earl Grey’s Best Effort and Third Space’s Nice Setting—helped put out a number of releases on his .jpeg Artefacts label ranging from kosmische-influenced ambient to Lynchian-style pop, and mastered just about every noteworthy Australian release of the last 12 months. 

If you’re familiar with Joe though, you’ll also know that he has a penchant for jazz (something his Sanpo Disco mix with fellow ECM-enthusiast Nico Niquo can attest to) and it’s this sound which he’s gravitated towards for his Theory Therapy mix. His recording evokes a kind of warm, amber nostalgia, moving patiently through a number of beautiful and understated tracks from the likes of Terje Rypdal, Joseph Shabason and Lee Byung-Woo.

Dreams, an artist known for his label & event series Private Selection, is set to release his first record since 2020 on a new label he founded this year, called Dance Data. 

The B side, 'Vessel', marks one of his first releases at this velocity - each groove feels hypnotic and gives weight into the next moment. A blistering saw bassline tightly sits on top of live recordings of brazilian percussion – and the dark and tribal energy fits the A-side as a perfectly paired, yet still unanticipated counterpart. As his first offering since a 2020 hiatus, it is refreshing to see Dreams pulling from his roots with 'Paraxotica' while also coming in with a more organic approach as is heard on 'Vessel'.

Pre-orders for the 12" vinyl are available now, which come with a custom hand made insert.
Vinyl release date: Feb 2023

The A side can be heard in full on Dance Data's bandcamp

Next up in our mix series is Harold, a true cornerstone in the Naarm community, who has now relocated to Amsterdam. Harold is known for their unique warm aura and incredible array of outputs - from DJ’ing, to hosting parties, to running the iconic record label Steeplejack, alongside the radio show and sub label Faultlines.

For this mix, Harold takes us on a two hour deeply emotionally loaded journey, blending glitchy rhythms, sentimental idm and ardent sound scapes, with a psychedelic and outer-worldly thread through it all.
