Power Vacuum founder el hombre Bintus aka Milo Smee (Kruton, Invincible Scum, Binary Chaffinch) brings us a blistering mix of rough acid, severe dancefloor damaging cuts and arcane B-Boy jams straight from the mouth of the demiurge!

R.A.D Mix #1: Bintus - DJ Mix

This is a live recording, captured at Ego club in Düsseldorf, June 5 1999.  The music has been created with a self written step sequencer, the PX-18, controlling  a basic sample player and effects engine, all done in MaxMSP, running on a Powerbook G3. The step sequencer had some unique features, e.g. the ability to switch patterns independently in each track, which later became an important part of a certain music software.

I found the recording on a backup disk today. It has not been edited or mastered. During the first 20 minutes of the set, and before the 'encore' the Monolake CD 'Gobi' is playing in the background.

The producer, real name Marco Sterk, first appeared on the Juno Plus radar with two EPs of spectral disco on his own, now defunct Hand Of God imprint back in 2010. However his talents were truly unveiled with last year’s beguiling Nonono 12” for the New York based ESP Institute label run by Lovefingers. Both the title track and “Darwin In Bahia” shimmered with a melodic warmth all too lacking from house music these days, and belied a predilection for sweet, minimalist percussion - not too dissimilar to what a Steve Reich house track might sound like.

This was preceded by an appearance on the Amsterdam All Stars compilation from Dutch imprint Rush Hour – where Marco works full-time as a designer – and an appearance on another Dutch label, Studio Soulrock, in collaboration with Tom Trago and Awanto 3. This year has seen Sterk settle down as a member of the ESP Institute family, first remixing Melbourne-based producer Michael Ozone's "Hetrotopia" to hypnotic effect, before returning last month with another solo outing, Video Days, which further demonstrated his ability to deliver music that doesn't quite fit into neat categories.

Marco's Juno Plus mix takes us on a journey through all manner of instrumental oddities, and he was kind enough to respond to some questions we fired at him via email, revealing news of a debut album slated for 2013 in the process.

Sorry for the small hiatus in our mix series. We relocated HQ recently but now have something special for you ... One of Italy's best kept secrets is a club located in Brescia called Disco Volante. Well known by visiting DJs to have one of the best DJ booths in Europe (Bozak mixer with dedicated isolators on each channel is rare these days!), we thought it only right that Enio (one of the masterminds behind the club) presented one of our podcasts.  Please download and enjoy three hours(!) of personal music from the heart. Cosmic, afro, krautrock, soul, jazz and disco ... just don't ask us for a playlist!

Here's some details about the DJ and Disco Volante:

(D.C.DJ SoulMind)
I've been a music lover since day one! As a kid with my small turntable I used to listen endlessly to all the records in my brothers and sisters' collection. In the early 80's I started to go to some alternative clubs located in Northern Italy. I am talking about "Cosmic" and "Typhoon". There I heard djs playing all kinds of music, from Jazz to Disco, to Afro and Funk till the modern electronic music from the 70's and 80's. It was only at the end of the 80's / early 90's that I started to dig house music. But it was a slow process. I have never loved glamourous and fake clubs. I loved the stuff coming from Chicago and Detroit since I could immediately find my vibe and roots in it, even if I was born and raised in Italy. Since the 90's I have been a promoter and dj for many projects mainly in and around Brescia. Today I am one of the founders, djs, director and owners of DISCO VOLANTE, in Brescia. In my dj sets you can feel my deep love for black music. I love analog sounds and I LOVE VINYL.

ENJOY!

Native American Flute with Tibetan Bowls (2hz Binaural Beat).  This track is based on an F# tone (at a=432hz tuning) for activating the heart chakra.  The flute was made by Coyote Oldman.

http://coyoteoldman.com

Binaural beats are a way of synchronizing your brain waves (which are measured in hertz) with the hertz of the binaural beat. The brain has a frequency following response which causes this to occur. These can help induce states of relaxation, meditation and help to relieve anxiety and stressed out states. This works best with headphones because binaural beats are panned hard left and right which forces the brain to synchronize the two tones. 

Here is an article from Wikipedia about Brainwave Entrainment:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwave_entrainment

The brainwave states (Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta) are listed on this page (scroll down to the table)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroencephalography

here's a basic rundown of the brains states:

Beta - 30hz-13hz - your normal awake state, in higher ranges or above 30hz you may be experiencing stress. In this case, you gotta chill!

Alpha - 13z-8hz - a relaxed and reflective state

Theta - 8hz-4hz - a very meditative state or getting drowsy and drifting off, if your sleepy)

Delta - 4hz and below - deep sleep or a very deep meditative state. Buddhist Monk's brainwaves have been measured in this state during meditation.

In the unlikely event that you experience any unusual physical or mental discomfort, immediately discontinue use.

Native American Flute #2 with Tibetan Singing Bowls (2hz Binaural Beat)

Amsterdam-based DJ and Producer Young Marco has been on the forefront of the city’s bustling underground scene for nearly a decade. Coming up through several now infamous residencies, he quickly gained notoriety for his genre-defying and ballsy DJ sets with a unique take on dance music, playing everything from lost proto-house and raw jaktrax to Libyan disco anthems.
 
After releasing several records on Rush Hour he soon found a home on Lovefingers’ ESP Institute where he continues to craft his signature zonked out house sound filled with broken drum computers and uncool 90’s new-age synthesizers.
