Tassilo Vanhöfen Mix for Yaga Gathering 2023 - Sound of Pinegrove

The REC series carefully selects outstanding performances from XRDS festival 2023. In our latest recording, we catch Kafim's opening set at The Bridge on 20.08.23. 

Kafim, a seasoned raver, is a vigilant architect of the dance floor vibe capturing every gaze. A history and experience that empowered him to fulfill his ultimate purpose – engaging all ears and rallying them towards a common objective.  

A linchpin from the Deep In House legacy since the start where Kafim shaped his particular style as varied as we know it today. Having his own evolved signature on his name characterized by utopian, imaginative and forward-think values, stands as a statement of his musical evolution. 

Privileged to host this piece of Brussels' cultural heritage at our festival and thrilled to share the experience with you.

The fourth installment of the ‘Tracks From The Alley’ series continues to explore the oblique edges of the jackin zone, dragging recognizable primitive elements of dance music through narcotic madness; a possible soundtrack for sleepless nights at the skate park.

Involved in this 4 tracker mini-compilation are the Greek dj/producer DimDj, the Berlin-based Italian producer and part of Sons Of Traders, TANS, the Portugal-based Brazilian Unrealistic Expectations label owner Nothing Was There, and the ALLEY VERSION’s brothers FLML.

PREMIERE: TANS - Sporca Loundry (Alley Version)

Former sound engineer now reconverted into coding, Kafim relationship with music goes way back to his young age, being a singer for a part of his childhood in a boys choral. Active in the Brussels city scene for more than 10 years, Max had countless gigs and a residency at C12 for some years to build his experience as a DJ. He now shares a medium of weird unpretentious music, hopeful and thoughtful mixes of zany basslines, moody post-punk riffs and idiosyncratic lyricism exhibit level-headed maturity and assertiveness.

what we find episode 5 featuring sanguine - over recent years, sanguine has been steadily stirring tides from ocean to ocean with music landing far and wide on labels like sure thing, oslated, and lost properties. With his latest sliding doors release, sanguine builds a deep and cloudy soundscape across many different tempos creating a rich sonic world with titles like ear gum and gone to taste a dream to match. This finely tuned method of design and arrangement translates to selection and storytelling in mixes with notable features online for series like pure space, maybe, and decay audio. For this mix, sanguine moves through downtempo sounds from artists like tosca, dawn again, ambien baby, and more.

"In and out, long, drifting hums throughout. Makes me think about Mt. Painter"

 Kavil is an artist, DJ and founder of Melbourne-based record label, Absorb. With an ear for fickle textures and unwonted forms, Kavil compiles moving soundscapes designed to stretch the boundaries of electro-acoustic music.

As a curator, Kavil is known for his work on his label's 30-hour experimental festival, ABSORBED and  bimestrial program on LYL Radio. He is also responsible for the collation of the revered Bleus mix series and the co-curator of Make It Up Club, an institution that has presented weekly avant-garde and improvised sound performances in Naarm since 1998.

#34 - Kavil - See-sawing

Imagine yourself in a dreamlike atmosphere, 
where tribal beats and psychedelics blend, 
allowing you to drift away and be gently lulled, 
while the vagueness awakens deep, primordial instincts, 
blurring the lines between reality and imagination

Italian dj, sonic explorer, curator (and spatial researcher) based in Turin, Luce Clandestina aspires to create spontaneous soundscapes that traverse the realms of light and darkness. Weaving paths that intertwine in an unexpected narrative, her sets reflect the interest towards a more internal dance experience, mental and emotional, using psychedelics and hypnotism as instruments.

Luce Clandestina presents Vago Spazio Del Ritmo [04.09.24]

In this episode, we welcome Carol from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
She is a producer and selector who's sound is constantly evolving, reflecting a never-ending search. Capable of creating hypnotic atmospheres, surrendering to the magic of sound, she delivers the first hour mix in this show. Enjoy @caro-so-3’s mix.

Next hour will be a mix by our resident @cristogxc

Max Tournay aka https://soundcloud.com/kafim is an established name in the Brussels underground community. He started deejaying techno music as a resident of the infamous Deep In House collective, who later founded C12 club where he was also a resident for several years. 

Max and I used to play regularly together around 2014/2015 as a deep techno dj duo and shared a couple of nice moments behind the booth. Yet, our paths went separate ways. Max’s interest floated away from club music, pulled towards a more wave-y, slowmo, rock-oriented spectrum. He has been a long-time host on Lyl radio, presenting a show called Basses Besognes focussing on psychedelic rock, garage, shoegaze & other guitar sounds. He also co-runs the (party) collective Curly Teeth, a platform for slowed-down forms of left-field club music.

Flash forward to a couple of months ago. Kafim played a long afternoon set at Horst Club’s intimate “Garage” room during the Gayhaze & Cocktail D’amore 2-day take over. On the dance floor, I was completely blown away by the uniqueness of Kafim’s music selection and super-skilled mixing. The energy that day was very special and emotional for me and the question of asking Max to share his mix after that day/night spent together was very logical. Here is the result of an artist rediscovering himself constantly but always counting on the technical skills of his early techno days. 

Another fact: Max came up with the name Basic Moves when Ailsa and I started the project 8 years ago. I’m so happy that our paths have crossed again, and I can give a platform to this live recording.

So cool Kafim provided the tracklist of the whole mix !!!!
