2018 FEB

Flash Atkins has pulled in Charlie Sinclair, singer from one of Manchester's hottest new bands, Sylvette for a collaboration that promises to be the start of something special.  The track has already been gathering heat, with Bill Brewster calling it 'one of his favourite house records of 2017' and reports of it rocking ALFOS and The Warehouse Project.

The original has a throbbing sub over clipped techy drums, muted guitar and an incessant Moog riff.  But the killer punch is Charlie Sinclair's soulful, intimate vocals that sit beautifully over the music.  The groove is locked and builds to the break where a hint of disco hits the floor before the final section brings in the bells to devastating effect.  The end result is a track that is destined to knock socks off in the coming months.  You were warned. 

Sean Johnston liked it so much he asked to do a remix and the result is everything you would expect from the Hardway Brothers.  He keeps the original elements but toughens things up with added oomph, taking it in a proto house and techno direction.  

Finally Tal M. Klein strips the track back to it's bare basics with devastating effect. Just a kick, the guitar and serious compression provide space for the tripped out vocal and a truly psychedelic deep house experience.

Forever Dolphin Love (Erol Alkan's Extended Rework) - Connan Mockasin [radio edit]

This started out as a dub of something else that I'm working on at the moment but the bassline took it in a completely different direction (reminds me loads of the LNR classic 'Work it to the Bone' hence the title). Also seems a very fitting title for the lyrics according to the Urban Dictionary.  :)

Plastic Bamboo #2

Sillyboy’s Ghost Relatives can proudly claim to be “Greek radio’s favourite soft rock band”. The Athens-based quartet – fronted by bass-wielding former TV commercial composer turned Balearic popster Charalambos Kourtaras – are rising stars in their home country, with listeners warming to their distinctive blend of atmospheric guitars, retro-pop synths and head-in-the-clouds grooves.

So far, international stardom has passed them by, though their distinctive songs have caught the ear of a range of DJs across the globe. One was Claremont 56 founder Paul ‘Mudd’ Murphy, who has worked his magic on one of the band’s previously unreleased gems, “In A Small Place”.

Perfectly capturing the claustrophobic reality of life in a small, remote town or village where everyone knows everyone else’s business, the song sees Sillyboy plan his escape over a mesmerizing backing track rich in ghostly synthesizers, chunky bass guitar, spacey electronics and a shuffling groove that sits somewhere between pitched-down dub disco and early ‘80s West Coast AOR.

Murphy’s “Extended Version” allows the track room to breathe, teasing out the clandestine and atmospheric instrumentation – eyes-closed guitar solos included – before introducing Sillyboy’s rueful and paranoid vocals. You’ll find the Greek band’s slimmed-down – and arguably even more trippy – original version on the B-side, completing a fittingly high quality musical package to kick-start Claremont 56’s 2019 release schedule.

(MAM018) Illich Mujica - The Magic Bay

MAM contribution from Venezuelan born, NY-based artist @Illich-Mujica. Illich took time out from his year-long world travels to put together a set for us and share some of his influences throughout his journey. We are extremely grateful for this profound mix provided to close out 2018!

Some words about the mix from Illich: "We are almost at the end of our world travels, it’s been a year and I’ve been collecting lots of multicultural experiences. I’m sitting at the bay of Magic Beach in Thailand with my Traktor setup, this one is all about closing out the year through a sunset by the beach. Lots of Latin influences from my native South America, some Laurie Anderson from my beloved New York City, and a tinge of new wave vibes from my 80’s musical upbringing. Hope you enjoy the ride, and thanks to Modmotif for having me as their DJ guest for their podcast! ❤"

I discovered this mix over along period of time. Digging, searching and dreaming of a selection that creates a special mood.. that switches around.. to surprise myself with all the facets of music and its strangeness.
I saw the mix become another in the morning and changed in the evening... i got afraid of a neverending story… so i finished it in the afternoon.

Chöka Aba! How to describe somebody who is not fitting in a frame....? No need to do so, otherways this is the frame. We love his uniqueness to do stuff wich is like one of a kind... Totally happy to have one of his creations on our platform. Thank you for this Jens!!

Superhero/ Sound Manipulator


Flash Atkins is a super hero who had his gravy days in the 80s saving the world with his ability to manipulate sound.  Unfortunately he's fallen on hard times and can be spotted in the less salubrious parts of London, Manchester and West Yorkshire often stoned or drunk on borrowed money and time.

To make ends meet he uses his special powers to remix and make deep disco music for Paper Recordings.

Let’s hope it gets him back on track.
