"Always notice whatever is happening in the background." The acclaimed producer and composer discusses the art of meaningful listening and his latest LP, Silencio.

Moritz von Oswald's legacy as one of the trailblazers of contemporary techno precedes him. The artist's initial claim to fame was his involvement in the duo Basic Channel with Mark Ernestus, a project that formed the dub techno canon in the '90s and is still a primary reference point for many, if not most, modern producers. He was also at the helm of the famous cutting and pressing plant Dubplates and Mastering in Berlin, which has become a home for countless artists over the years.

But on this occasion, Oswald sat down to discuss a more recent project: his LP Silencio on Tresor Records, which came out in November. He talked with RA's senior producer, Chloe Lula, about his lifelong love of  jazz, tapestry, French film, Southern Italian opera and music from Central Asia. He also reflects on his production process—an endless exploration of drama and dynamics. Oswald is fascinated with reducing sound to its most basic elements and broadening the capacity of what the ear can perceive. Most importantly, he's a critical listener, and in the final moments of the episode, he imparts wisdom on how he's learned to keep a conscious ear open to the world around him. Check out the episode in full.

Ryan Blackman - Remembering The Dream

Educated in the fertile grounds of the Macedonian techno scene, its no surprise that @viktorapo has made his way onto the likes of @mojubarecords. Established in 2005, Thomas Wendel’s (aka Don Williams) popular Berlin-based label has always been contentious about who it allows into its fold – in a 2008 interview about Mojuba, Wendel confirms that his intention for the label's roster is mainly friends and family and that it will be difficult for outsiders to get in — and this is clear from a quick skim of their Bandcamp page. Familiar names continue popping up throughout Mojuba's discography, such as Sven Weissman, Don Williams/Oracy, and Nick Solé, to name a few.

Viktor’s introduction onto Mojuba’s a.r.t.less sub-label was born from his connection with Macedonian veteran @stojche, who introduced him to Wendel. Stojche could be considered somewhat of a mentor to Viktor, and his influence on him runs deeper than a gateway into the industry. Similar sound design tropes can be found in the production styles of both artists. For example, tracks such as Sojche – Granada and Viktor Apo – Flow feature glassy, dubby, phasey chords layered over flowing grooves. Viktor’s Regenerate EP lives somewhere in the middle ground. It encapsulates the spirit of Mojuba’s deep dubby house roots whilst adhering to a more techno feeling, with its faster bpm’s and bouncy drum programming.

Regardless of whether this sound is something completely new or not, Viktor Apo’s clever combination of loops, grooves, and deep spacey sound design work. It’s a fun and nostalgic throwback to that early Detroit sound, and worthy of a place on the well-respected and closely guarded roster of Mojuba. Viktor Apo is part of a diverse albeit overlooked scene in Skopje that is keeping the city firmly on the electronic music map.

For his //SNCMIX, Viktor puts together a functional, energetic, dancefloor-focused blend of techno and electro tracks. Perfect for your weekend listening.

Minimal Wave w/ Veronica Vasicka - Silent Servant Tribute 230124

A principios de siglo, cuando la electrónica acababa de explosionar llenando las calles de clubs y las zapatillas de baile, hubo un sello que supo llevar todo ello más allá y generar una de las primeras sectas musicales que se recuerdan. Hablamos de Border community, camada de genios como Nathan Fake, Four Tet, Luke Abbot, Extrawelt y por supuesto del mayor de todos, James Holden. Es, y no nos pasamos de frenada diciendo esto, uno de los sellos más influyentes de la historia de la electrónica, y como tal se merece su electromagnética.

Fueron los responsables de que en pistas anteriormente saturadas por el beat la peña bailara con los ojos cerrados melodías eternas, y a quien hay que agradecer que en unos años donde el mínimal mal entendido era omnipresnete dejándolo todo de mierda hasta el techo, daban esperanza y alivio al oído del inquieto.

Sello que sigue vivo, 20 años después, que sigue inventando y que sigue arrastrando a sus feligreses al templo de turno. Hoy toca en esta Kely y en este medio; la radio.
