Feel My Bicep Mixtape 198 by Fantastic Twins
http://www.feelmybicep.com/fmb-mixtape-198-fantastic-twins/

For this week’s episode of the FMB mixtape series, we welcome Julienne Dessagne aka Fantastic Twins; the Berlin-based French artist, producer, live performer and label owner (Microdosing). As usual we fired some questions over to find out a bit about the mix & what she’s been up to recently:

Mainly traveling for my live shows and in between working in the studio on lots of exciting projects – a soundtrack for contemporary dance, adding the last touches to my album, finishing an EP, and a new collaboration with Andrei Rusu (1/2 of the Khidja duo)… amongst other things. 

The mix was recorded in my studio in Berlin. My focus has always been on producing music and performing live shows rather than DJing so I have learnt to find my own way of making mixes which isn’t exactly the standard DJ approach. I use mainly Ableton and some outboard effect units. After selecting the music and digitalising vinyls when needed, I put the tracks in a session and do quite a lot of editing, add some layers of my own recorded material or vocals here and there, process some bits through external effects, etc. My mix is ultimately an instinctive assembling of all that and some happy accidents. The idea behind the mix is hopefully to create emotion for the listeners. I personally don’t enjoy mixes that sound like a straight motorway from start to finish. I much prefer to be taken through highs, lows and unexpected turns. I approach mixes in a very similar way to my live sets. For this particular mix, I liked the idea of starting things on what sounds like the fading end of something else. And building anew from there, in full circle. 

Up next?

Some upcoming live shows this weekend in Paris, Prague, a Mexican tour in December, an endless list of projects to finish in the studio, and I’m also looking forward to diving into the visual / art direction research for my new album which will hopefully be released next year.

6tizen - Burden of Choices (Sascha Funke Remix)

Alan Strani, in a tux so fancy, Danced the Apocalypso, feeling so chancy…

With I:Cube Remix, the rhythm did enhance, see,
In Bordello A Parigi, where dreams run free.

He twirled and he swirled, his moves so bizarre, Apocalypso madness, like a shooting star, I:Cube’s beats, like a wild electric guitar, In Bordello A Parigi, where no rules are.

The night went on, a surreal cabaret, Alan Strani’s dance, a wild display, Apocalypso and I:Cube’s sway, In Bordello A Parigi, where we all stray.
 
Alan Strani returns to Bordello with a remix package of his album title track ‘Apocalypso’ featuring I:Cube – which we’re premiering here + Lauer, In Flagranti and himself on remix duties.

Undo & Casiowaves - Casiobass EP (incl. Nhar Remix)

A long-time resident at Barcelona’s legendary Razzmatazz and label head of Factor City for two decades, Undo is a Spanish mainstay with countless releases that have garnered support from the likes of Andrew Weatherall, Roman Flugel and Erol Alkan. He teams up with fellow Spaniard and synth-pop wizard Casiowaves to return for their second collaborative release on Melodize after last year's 'Predict The Future' EP.

The straight-forward 'Casiobass' kicks off with fizzing synth lines, chugging dark disco drums, a fat bass and circling pads. 'Overcruiser' is a pumping, Italo-influenced cut with retro-future chords and a clean, cosmic feel, while 'Something Blue' layers up the crispy analogue drums with sonar pulses, deadpan cold wave vocals and majestic leads that bring color and vibrancy.

Drummer-turned electronic producer and live act Nhar, who boasts an impressive discography spanning two decades, makes his debut on the label with a remix of 'Waves to Come' that brings a widescreen serenity and calm to the original through pensive chord work and starry keys twinkling in the distance. The original then closes out with Balearic guitar licks, punchy drums, and rich bass for a fusion of retro sounds with futuristic sentiment. From the driving Casiobass to the Balearic, serene 'Waves to Come,' Undo & Casiowaves have served up offerings for all hours with the versatile 'Casiobass' EP.

PREMIERE : Undo & Casiowaves - Casiobass

On Friday 8th September Morocco was struck by the strongest earthquake on record for over a century. Hitting the High Atlas mountains, around 70 kilometres southwest of Marrakesh, the 6.8 magnitude quake has killed over 3000 people and impacted the lives of over 300,000 more.

As a way to raise funds for families and communities impacted by the disaster, we’ve rallied friends together for ‘Tadamoun: A Compilation for Moroccan Earthquake Relief’.

Compiled in collaboration with Geneva-based DJ and producer Reda Saiarh, the release features 24 tracks contributed by artists from across Europe, including Anatolian Weapons, Romain FX, Justine Forever, Cornelius Doctor, Zaatar and more. Musically it travels across many sounds and styles too, from ambient electronica, trip hop and leftfield bass to chugging Italo, jackin’ new beat and trippy techno.

All proceeds will be split 50/50 between two charities who are helping to raise money for those affected and to rebuild communities that have been devastated: Atlas Kinder, a charity who supports abandoned children in Morocco, and Insaf, a non-profit organisation that protects and supports women and children.

DJ, producer and compilation curator Reda Saiarh: “‘Tadamoun’ means Solidarity in Arabic - my mother instantly suggested this word as the title of the release. Following the events [in Morocco], I wanted to help in a way that brought many talents and friends together. Artists from different countries around the world showed their appreciation to Morocco and its population in a moment of communion. In response to tragedy, music is the answer - I encourage you to help and share by purchasing this various artists' compilation. A list of charities is available for anyone who wants to donate or help directly, and we also suggest you listen to other compilations that are helping the same cause including these from Astro Fever International and ZNZL.

I'm really thankful to all the artists on the compilation for contributing their brilliant music for such a great cause. It means a lot to make a fusion of worldwide artists and especially friends, including the Hard Fist Crew, Neskeh and Romain FX, as well as Rosie for her outstanding coordination behind the scenes. My sister has also been really involved, collecting donations and resources for families who are affected. This was a family affair from the beginning - thanks to Ransom Note for making it happen!”

Fantastic Twins 
Two Is Not A Number 
House Of Slessor, 2023 (HOS002)
Released on Oct 13 2023 

Fantastic Twins, the ongoing project of Julienne Dessagne, is a sonic exploration of dual characters born from one distinct perspective. A producer, songwriter, and acclaimed live performer, Dessagne has spent the last decade sculpting a unique world.

On an ambitious new album entitled ‘Two Is Not a Number’, Dessagne immerses herself more fully than ever in the concept that inspired her artist name, exploring the entwined lives and fates of her imaginary twins, their schizophrenic dreams, small dramas, and big tragedies - a metaphor for our own psyche, our inner conflicts, and our relationship to others and otherness.

These musings on the psychological, emotional, biological, and metaphysical qualities of Twins are expressed with assured clarity, using a palate of icy deep techno, eerie atmospheric soundtracks, tranced-out dark wave, and synth pop-noir. Whether through airborne dancefloor ascension, diamond hard rhythms, electronic thundercracks, or empathy drenched vocals and the palpable sense of unease, this standout album brings Dessagne’s powerful, affecting art into sharp focus.

'I Was First' takes listeners to the Fantastic Twins’ origin, a vocal transmission from within a sonic womb, as our protagonists prepare to emerge. 'Sisters at Odds' sees our siblings emerge incongruous and freshly awoken to life’s absurdities in slow-motion. Suspensefully, the percussive heartbeat of Land of 'Pleasure Hi Fi' wrings tension from numerology, blossoming into a scorched industrial ballet, a mirage of multiplicity.

Following the gothic connection of 'Master & Disciple', 'Silver Moon Dial' incants a trance-like state that captures the physical energy of Dessagne’s live show, as Fantastic Twins take advantage of ‘putting the moon on speed dial.’ Euphoria soon splinters into tragedy with 'Twins Can’t Love', extracting unexpected melody and melancholy in brittle, IDM tinged electronics, beautifully tangled with Dessagne’s longing intonations.

'From Above' sees Dessagne’s vocals once again shift into a new form for a haunting interpretation of something approaching a ballad, echoing around a chamber from which the Twins have seemingly disappeared. Ultimately 'All of This is Resolved', both in title and form, within this album’s cathartic yet uneasy conclusion. Dessagne sends the siblings home at last... But what will we find if we follow?

A few words from Hippie Dance:

"Hippie Dance wishes you Merry Crystals and a Happy New You. We will be celebrating half-a-dozen years of existence in 2017, releases from Fantastic Twins (formerly known as The Twins), Superpitcher, Rebolledo, Pachanga Boys, and new exciting stuff from the You And Your Hippie Friends sub-label can be expected during the year. A little taste of it is "The New You"...

"Now that the year 2016 is nearly behind us. Now that we know more than ever that we are the inhabitants of a planet gone completely loco. Now that we carry the deep knowledge that nothing is as simple as it used to be back in the days on the fruitful prairies of naïve and loving co-existence void of existential crisis. Now that we have self-helped ourselves into self-loathing—we bring you from the hands of the Fantastic Twins, "The New You"! Be calm citizens of the now! It's not a conspiracy, it is not a devious trick of terrorism, it is (sorry) not a quick fix either to end the onslaught of your self-esteem demons. It is a gratis gift with love from our Hippie Dance universe where there is still hope and excellent music in abundance to be found. "The New You" is a strong and truthful journey of ethereal sound and a vivid reminder that whatever happens around us, no matter the fear and confusion that are dished up on our daily plates, the power lies within us to take that very important last step to discover the new in each of us. Musically "The New You" cleverly creates the sense of a pending announcement of a new personality that might reveal itself; and yet, in the end one is confronted with the fact that "The New You" will always remain evasive. The magic lies in the journey itself and even though you might never meet and shake hands with "The New You," may you receive this profound and touching message with open minds and hearts and take it with you into 2017 as a mantra of action. Rip up those new year's resolutions and celebrate the talented Fantastic Twins and half-a-dozen years of HippieDance: Merry Crystals and a Happy New You!"
