NYE Pop Hour - No Plastic & Alias Error - 31 Dec 2023

If Bitter Babe was a perfume, her scent would be animalic—heavy musk, bergamot, worn leather and burnt spices. The Bogotá-born, Miami-bred and now Berlin-based artist has a heady, ultra-rhythmic sound that feels made for sweltering summer nights and feral fantasies. Combining pan-Latin styles with hard drum and industrial touches, she's crafted a singular mood that defines her DJing and production: hazy, high-energy and sensual.

Bitter Babe's ascent on the international circuit has been tied to her role in Miami's electronic renaissance. Whether it's proto-reggaeton, dense ambient or guaracha, her sets and productions are characterised by evocative low-end, darting synths and distorted frequencies that exude drama. With releases on TraTraTrax, Air Texture and SVBKVLT, she's cemented her position as an experimentalist, leaving the door open for more deconstruction and abstraction.

As cofounder of multidisciplinary project LATITUDES, Bitter Babe seeks to unify Latin America's electronic music communities. Her mixes are a great source for discovering under-the-radar acts from Peru, Brazil and beyond, some of whom are featured on her RA podcast. Starting with subby downtempo before moving onto swampy baile funk, technoid mutations of dembow and cheeky UKG, it showcases her expertise for trippy yet deeply kinetic grooves.

Joining us for Tapes #122 is Minor Science, the Berlin-based Brit who consistently cuts through the noise and has been making standout tracks for almost a decade.

As a DJ, Minor Science draws on years of experience to craft sets that are controlled in form and bold in content. Having performed at venues as diverse as Panorama Bar and the Bang Face Weekender, the average Minor Science set can do heads-down mindwarp, maximalist rave meltdown, or (often) both. 

Minor Science has presented his Absent Friends live show at events such as Intonal and Maerzmusik. Emotive and absorbing, these performances explore themes of psychedelia and togetherness via improvised performance and deft four-deck mixing.

Framework presents the sophomore edition of TOWER Imports, a limited mix series designed to incorporate international artists into New York's TOWER project. 

This entry comes from born and raised Amsterdam producer, DJ, and multidisciplinary artist @Yb3L. Throughout the mix, they establish several long-distance, electrical connections in preparation for the next edition of TOWER, April 25 at Bossa Nova Civic Club in Brooklyn.

"To those that follow forward radio channels such as Kiosk and Future Intel, as well as clubs like Garage Noord and POING, the name Yb3L should ring a big bell. Through heavy breaks, bouncy rhythms, futuristic bass and infectious bangers with a mystical touch, this rising DJ/producer is pervading the most adventurous areas of the Dutch scene. In addition, Yb3L is a co-founder of @sann-odea, an Amsterdam-based label that focuses on abstract electronic release for listening and dancing, which are curated and broadcasted in a grounded and accessible fashion." - Dekmantel Selectors 2024
