art:cast °130 | Nicolas Duque

Nicolas Duque is a relative newcomer to the scene with only a couple of releases under his belt. However, he managed to develop a recognizable and distinct sound influenced by hazy 90s House Music and UK Garage that is deep and quirky at the same time. So far the Colombian-based artist released music on renowned British labels like Lobster Theremin, Dansu Discs or Nuances de Nuit as well as a release on Magic Carpet and has some new stuff already lined up for this year. Shortly after returning from the a short trip to the sea the artist sat down with Torture the Artist reflecting on his production process his EDM and Tech House past and pondered about possible pandemic influences on the scene as well as him as an artist. Ultimately Nicolas has mixed and compiled the latest art:cast, which pretty much sums up the artist’s current musical being.

Interview

art:cast °130 | Nicolas Duque

Ahead of his debut Subculture appearance this Saturday, @veitch-dj has stepped up to deliver the inaugural edition of our new Subculture Spotlight Mix series. The series will be motivated by providing an advance insight into the musical character & energy of forthcoming Subculture guests, alongside shining a light upon the wide array of rising local talent Glasgow has to offer and to introduce the sounds of artists that we are excited about from further afield.

We genuinely could not think of anybody better to kick this series off than @veitch-dj. Sean is a true student of the Subculture sound and as a long term Subbie family & staff member he has developed a depth of insight & understanding forged over many years both behind the bar & on the dance floor. This paired with his experience as a resident/chief-organiser of Pala Glasgow in recent years alongside his new @fenixglasgow residency has shaped an incredibly considered & talented DJ. This one has been a long time coming and we are very much looking forward to hearing what magic Sean will conjure down in our subterranean Jamaica Street haven. 

As always Sean will be joining the OG's Harri & Domenic on Saturday with Valencia born/Glasgow Based selector & wax lover Iris Pertegaz kicking things off on the night.

One for the heads. A treat from one of the men responsible for bringing Kerri Chandler to Scotland for the first time all those years ago. Since then, Colin Cook has provided clubbers in Edinburgh with expertly chosen records time & time again. Former resident DJ to one of the cities most famous parties, Ultragroove, Colin has a vast & rare record collection & we are extremely happy to have him give us a sample of what over 30 years of digging sounds like. 

Almost 3 hours of deep house & spaced out techno & electro to make the end of your working week enjoyable rather than bearable. All killer no filler.

Moments w/ k2k - March 2023

For this month's episode of our podcast series, we are thrilled to invite Berlin based talent Iron Curtis to serve you one hour of finest grooves. 

On the continent of electronic music, Johannes Paluka has travelled far and wide, collapsing musical boundaries with enviable ease. Under the moniker of Iron Curtis, the Berlin-based creates his complex, hauntingly beautiful productions from a range of eclectic styles and influences. Be it House, Acid or soulful Techno – his sound moves in the equilibrium of reduced, but never minimal. Flashes of kitsch brighten the dark universe of Iron Curtis, but fail to interfere with the melancholy subtext. As far as leftfield electronic music is concerned and as long as he sees a chance to break a few genre rules here or there, Iron Curtis is brimming with ideas.

Making his debut in 2008 with an EP on Hamburg’s beloved Mirau, he made even more good impressions that year with a contribution to the Deetron’s Fuse. Apart from releasing House on labels like Office, Retreat or Smallville, Paluka runs the project Achterbahn D'Amour with his longtime friend Jool aka Edit Piafra. Here, they focus on Acid-infused techno, electrifying audiences with their shows and releases on L.A.-based Acid Test imprint. His latest project is called Moon – a collaboration with Johannes Albert from Frank Music, where the two friends exhibit their love for classic Electro and stripped down Techno.

But wherever his musical interests take him, Iron Curtis will always be adding a little soul in his compositions. This is the magic thread that runs through all of his productions and it is what Iron Curtis transfers from his releases to his live gigs as well. As a DJ, he is as inspired and versatile as he is a producer, skilfully taking the dancefloor into the deep and diverse corners of modern dance music.

We say thank you for this wonderful contribution to our podcast series and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
