For the 200th entry of our Bleep mix series, we bring you none other than Mark Broom, the British house and techno artist kicking up a storm under many guises since ‘89. As you can imagine, Broom’s gathered quite a collection since those heady days, from which he draws a selection of gems for this mix. 

“I've been digging through my vinyl collection recently & I've amassed quite a few classics over the years & this was the perfect excuse to showcase them in a mix. I've also included one track from my new album Fünfzig on Rekids & an exclusive edit of the Underground Resistance favourite 'Jupiter Jazz'” - @beardman

Bleep Mix #200 - Mark Broom

This recording was selected for a guest spot on Dublab Radio, that aired on Saturday, January 29th, 2022 and was accompanied with a brief interview that was lead by Lottie, which is posted here below. 

What has been the biggest challenge and more positive outcome you’ve experienced through extended time at home?

Being alone with my record collection and contemplating how different I am feeling, and considering which slabs of vinyl that I want to spend more time with. Rekindling relationships with certain sonic objects that are saturated with memories and have the power to transport me to a different space.

Thank you for the recording this mix for dublab – I know its been a while since you put a mix into the ether – can you speak about your process?

I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and wandered blindly into the void. This recording is a document of a moment in time, while smothered in an atmosphere that is as beautiful as it is ugly. The outcome is a true sonic image that is unmolested, unedited, and honest. An automatic drawing where one action responds to the next without any shadow of a doubt, and then preserved in its total form.

How did you approach the mix, did you have an idea in your mind of how it was going to go – or did you just trust your instinct?

Every time it is like traveling on autopilot with an empty mind that is prepared to accept the laws of chance while powered by an engine of chaos. I am a beacon rupturing from my life experiences. One light turns out, while another one flickers on. It is a very vehement ritual activity that depends on the action of call and response, while embracing the limitations that I set for myself by the tools that I choose to use. There is nothing but blind trust.

A lot of your art focuses on magic, ritual practice – but I would also say storytelling, a lot of the music in this mix, seems to spell some hidden meanings, can you go into any of those?

One of the strongest qualities of music, and all art in general is its subjective nature. Meanings can change continually through an endless scope of variables. The original intent of the artist can be transformed completely by the one that is digesting it. An important character of a successful work of art is its power to present open narratives shrouded in unlimited possibilities. And the closer and harder you look, the more questions will arise.

Wandering Blindfolded Within The Liminal Spaces Where Light Meets Dark

Interesting mix here, the 1st 50 minutes is Donato, then after Mathew. Does anyone know who Brancaphonic (maybe Andrea Filosa & Filippo R. Travaglio) were at the Brancaleone club in Rome, Italy around 2004 or 2005? If so, contact us. See also our comment on https://www.discogs.com/label/553629-Brancaleone.

Mix description text on that webpage: 

‘1 of the microhouse events, that took the name Space Edition, and hosted the Canadian Mathew Jonson, a member of Cobblestone Jazz, and 1 of the founders of Wagon Repair record label. That evening, Mathew divided the music area with Donato Dozzy, a resident DJ and famous today in the international electronic scene. In this recording, Dozzy is playing at the opening, while the set of Jonson, is in the central part. There are 3 or 4 jumps in the track, because that night the recorder had some problems’.

New Brvtalism No. 124: Helena Hauff + Silent Servant (*Live in Amsterdam)

Happy to bring you this play differently set by Vutall! Had the chance to play with him in Madison and he really took the Model 1. 
Vutall has been a performing DJ since 2012 when he started playing a weekly 3 hour radio set for an online station called EVE Radio. Since then he has moved cities multiple times and experienced the music cultures of Tucson, LA, Portland, and now finally Madison WI which is where he calls home. He has a wide range of styles, though his primary love is harder techno with acid lines.

Model One Thoughts:
I have been dying to get hands on to play since this mixer was announced as being offered to consumers. I had a very brief 3 minute showroom demo once a year or so ago, and have studied the manual in an out countless times. I currently play on a Xone 92, and one of the ways I enjoy mixing on that is by using the filters instead of the EQ. However, you can only use one filter on each track on the 92, so being able to use both at the same time AND have a master filter on the Model One was like going from a moped to a superbike. I loved it! The parametric sculpting EQ was excellent to and very familiar to me since I do some production, live audio recording/engineering, and also run a front of house for sound systems. 

I think one of the features I liked the most outside of the filters was the overdrive. Theres this knob you can turn on each channel to reduce the headroom of that channel, which introduces analog clipping when you normally would not have it. This is something super cool because it creates a harmonic distortion and really changes the way your music is heard. On a technical level, you can warp a saw wave into a square wave on the fly, and that is incredibly neat and I think overlooked by a lot of first time users. I know I didn't use it nearly as much as I would have liked to!


About the set:
To me, nirvana is a place of tranquility. My set was heavily inspired by the Toyko techno from when they had their no dancing laws. That meant their music featured less emphasis on the kick and high hat but instead featured more rolling basslines to induce a hypnotic like state. Hypnosis generally goes hand in hand with meditation, which goes hand in hand with tranquility to me, so this is my expression of nirvana. I hope you enjoy!

Claude Young - Live at Honey Soundsystem [4-29-12]

Noncompliant (AKA DJ Shiva) delivers an hour of blistering, assertive techno. We catch up with the Midwest legend to learn about the Indiana rave scene, the role of techno in trying times and the need for hope  against adversity...

Interview and Tracklist: https://bit.ly/2mqNbAt

Podcast 100: Noncompliant

This mix was recorded live from Reaktor's Katharsis event in 2017.  For those that don't know, Katharsis happens once a year and is dedicated to the faster, harder and more industrial side of techno.  This was my entire 3 hour set from that night.

Over the last few years we have built a steady relationship doing events together and sharing our passion for this music.  We are teaming up once again for ADE 2018 and releasing this mix as a thank you to all our followers and supporters.

No introductions necessary for installment number two in our series of recordings from the booth. Enclosed is just under three hours of hard music from two members of UR that we were lucky enough to have come through at the end of March.

The recording is split into two parts. The high-octane, acidic, psycho stuff in this section comes courtesy of Dex Nomadico, who played during the first half of the party. And the raw, thumping, soulful sounds in the other section are taken from the last hour or so of Mark Flash's set – just as daylight broke through. 

Big respect and praise due to the whole UR family for letting us air these out and to all the dancers who gave this one their energy.

Nowadays Live And Direct 002 - Underground Resistance Part 1

Miles aka 8maos has been a constant in the Portland rave community since 2015, lighting up dance floors from behind and in front of the decks. He may have dipped out to drive his van around the continent for a few years but his heart never left. Living in a van for 3 years naturally compelled him to live a minimal lifestyle, which just reinforced and grew his love for minimal music. Getting wrecked by some of the best DJs on the planet on his travels certainly helped ;)

Now he's back to bring the music he loves to the community he loves through his new party series Thread the Needle. Whether he's curating or DJing Miles gravitates towards music that pulls you in - deep, dark, groovy, textured, sensual. His joy of selecting tracks for each unique environment, for the vibe of the party and the people, breathes life into his music and takes his mixing to the next level.
