A recent unplanned show in Bejing was a rare chance for me to share what I call my 'love songs' - beautiful, emotive records, most of which have been with me for a long time. I've only DJ'd this way a few times, and this is the first time I've got the recording. While many of the tracks have beats, I tried playing them in an ambient way, gentle and simple. Music from: Function, NWAQ, Larry Heard, Plastikman, old Kompakt and Dial-related, a few recent selections + more. Thanks to Lyu Zhiqiang (@mohemann) for making it happen. I sincerely appreciate the people who follow and listen to my sets, I am happy to share this with you.

Love songs in Beijing

Recorded live at the Grove, Saturday 8-10PM, Sustain-Release Year Nine (2023). Thank you to Aurora & the Sustain-Release team for the trust, to everyone who shared this memory I'll never forget.

A masterclass in aerial hypno grooves from Vancouver's @thurlowjoyce, fresh off the back of a mind melting split EP for NAFF alongside Priori and Regularfantasy packed with euphoric peak time delights.

Q. Hey Cole, what inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time/place in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. Hey Myles. Thanks for having me. I've been Deepcasting since day one. It's a blessing to be able to contribute.

I'm in between a few worlds here. I'm originally from Vancouver, Canada, and have been lucky to soak up Canadian sounds since my early days at the Mood Hut parties of free sparkling water. Mood Hut, NAFF, Plush, ISLA, Planet Euphorique, 1080p, they’re cozy CanCon scenes and there's a strong connection between Vancouver & Montreal. 

In parallel I've been stuck on the free form ambiance of 3 X L, Motion Ward, West Mineral Ltd., Kwia adjacent sounds. I'm currently spending a few months in Berlin and just played my first show at Kwia thanks to Nat Marcus (she’s the best), and it's an incredibly unique space, the effect of the experience has been lasting.

This mix feels like a connection between these experiences. I often feel like my taste is a bit too heavy, emotional, euphoric, or dark, and decided to lean into that. There's some softer sounds I've been lingering on mixed with a lot of functional high energy strict business. I hope there's something the listeners can enjoy as well.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart, or new or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment?

A. Naturally there's a healthy amount of CanCon in here. There's so much amazing stuff coming out of NAFF right now. I've been hung up on releases from URA, Purelink and Cousin, as well as one from Cousin's (lovely) label, Moonshoe. Some real bliss from Special Guest DJ as well as with Pontiac Streator as crimeboys. A few favourites from friends (Sverre!), and I've contextualized some of my own. 

Q. I really enjoyed your recent split EP alongside Priori and Regularfantasy for the wonderful NAFF label. Tell us a bit more about those songs you recorded and how it all came together for the label as your debut EP?

A. Thank you! That means a lot. 

Lemon Citrus and Varial are 100% pandemic tracks. I've always struggled to push my own stuff and haven't released much of it or done a good job of putting myself out there. I was writing a lot in isolation during this period and remember trying to be more comfortable with the idea of sharing music, and doing so with my friend Jamie (Big Zen). 

The NAFF connect came about pretty organically. Francis and Adam have been amazing to work with. Jamie’s a G. It was, and still is a trip. NAFF has always been a favourite label of mine. It was a dream realized to be able to contribute.

Thanks again for having me.

"Woven with a characteristic sentimental string, you'll find yourself among the depths of 2000s drum and bass, the dreamy respite of downtempo and the intricate beauty of modern-day IDM.

This mix is dedicated to my longstanding love for ASC's 'Deep Space' mix series, a love that  now projects toward contemporary platforms like INVEINS ~ I'm so grateful to be here."

Brian McBride (1970-2023) was an ambient composer, drone wizard, tonal craftsman, and emulator of "far away" music. As half of Stars of the Lid, the pinnacle duo identified as both post-rock and Arvo Pärt-gardism, McBride is a legendary, internationally recognized name. Many of my friends and listeners know how massive of an influence SOTL – along with the Aix Em Klemm one-off – are on my taste, intellect, and approach to production. SOTL and McBride are widely present in my tracklists and appear often in my sets; I have been attentively collecting this music since I first learned about them in 2003 (thanks be to Epitonic). Today I proudly own all of the SOTL catalog.

For me, McBride's sonic corpus represents several very visceral and personal ideas and memories. Apart from being a glowing representation of immersive distance and landscape, of nature growing intolerant and stating its intentions, McBride’s music at its core is the soundtrack of Central Texas plains and rocky outcroppings, of eroded mountains and dirty, tired water, of the otherworldliness of the Edwards Plateau at night and the mystique of cicada chorusing in harmony with multiple lawn mowers after a violent thunderstorm. It is the tragic music of being from an oppressive place but bearing a profound love for it nonetheless. It is gentle reminders of the environments of my childhood; it is heavy bliss.

A Tribute To Brian McBride

Lena Willikens and Moopie at A Colourful Storm, Berlin

DYL, through ECHO, is going to travel between musical genres and collect music that pushes forward new sonic possibilities.

Dschen
Munich based DJ, Composer, Modular Synthesist, Music Lover.
After an initial interest in Hip-Hop/Turntablism culture as a teenager, Dschen soon became attracted by the early Atmospheric & Liquid Drum'n'Bass sound, which led to his first gigs and experiences as a club DJ. This was until around 2007. More than 15 years later the focus of his DJ sets today lies mainly on hypnotic, deep or driving Techno and organic Halftime grooves, sometimes merging both styles in the same set through proper track selection and mixing techniques. Current DJ sets are regularly published in his own "Temporary Escape Podcast“ on SoundCloud and YouTube.

In addition to his activity as a DJ, Dschen has delved deep into the world of modular synthesizers in recent years, following a long phase of experimenting with different production and composition methods. Now his tracks are created as intuitively as possible, often by recording live jams in the studio to capture a special sound aesthetic and authenticity.
His debut album “One Armed Statue“ came out in early 2023 on the Mexican label “Secuencias Temporales“ and embodies this recent artistic development. Soon his first self released album “Undertow“ will come out on Bandcamp, presenting some intimate improvisations solely done on a Verbos modular system. Stay tuned!
