sets to remember

From the original feature on Clash Magazine: http://www.clashmusic.com/features/fluid-landscapes-exclusive-max-cooper-mix

It’s been a long time since I’ve made a full length “live” mix of just my own material, mainly because I was focused on my album in recent times. But after some new studio additions and work developing new ideas and new experiments, I’ve got enough fresh material to draw on, along with some old, to put together a new live set only composed of my originals, some remixes I’ve done, and I had to include a couple from the Inhuman remix package because there’s some great work on there from Lusine and Rodriguez Jr. among others.

I’ve approached this mix a little more like my live sets of old, keeping it pretty smooth and letting the tracks do the talking, rather than going too heavy on the genre-swapping and BPM-juggling as I have been doing on other mixes recently. There’s still some (hopefully) unexpected moments though of course, a strings solo, some crunchy glitch, backwards Nyatiti, several brand new never heard before tracks, a homemade desolation bootleg of Spastik, my first ever totally analogue tracks (I’ve only recently taken the plunge into the analogue synth world), and two live Jazz improvisation sessions recorded recently in London.

The artwork embedded is made by Andre Britz, who has literally created some "fluid landscapes" works, of which he was kind enough to donate a custom piece for this mix - Thanks Andre! You can find him here: https://www.behance.net/Andre

As a whole, the mix is about being wrapped up in a warm exploration of feelings and landscapes. It will work best with a nice pair of headphones and an open mind. I hope there’s at least some parts in there you enjoy!

Max Cooper Live - Fluid Landscapes - mix for Clash

Für die Ewigwachgebliebenen zum Feierabendbier, für die Frühaufsteher als Seelenfutter zum Wochenbeginn: Montagssorbet mit Laut & Luise. Alles erlaubt, was gut tut und Gedanken kreisen lässt, nur der Name ist Programm: cremig, fluffig und ganz schön weich.

Mit einem ordentlichen Schuss Gülp in Kopf und Beine und einer Prise Voodoo im Bauch bringt uns Nordmann @Nutia nochmal zurück inne Ecke, hinten anne Gleise, da wo es Tag und Nacht und Tag so schön hat gebimselt. Wir für unseren Eins machen den Ton an, drehen uns nochmal um und lassen den Montag das sein, was er ist, Montag eben.

(Ansage: Laura, Leonie, Kolja & Max)

#027: Nutia *live - Montagssorbet mit Laut & Luise

Next up is a marathon mix from Irish producer and DJ, The Drifter. After an upbringing dabbling in different musical pursuits, from bands and choirs to folk and traditional, a love for electronic music was born from ventures into Dublin nightlife. A move to Berlin ensued soon after.

He excelled whilst DJing at his own night Passion Beat which he ran with Mano Le Tough for 3 years in Berlin. Together they built a strong residency and from this set up their own label, Maeve, along with another close friend, Baikal. They all share the same love for emotive deep music and this has been at the forefront of the label’s releases and led to ties with heavyweight labels such as Innervisions.

In late 2012 he released his first solo work, the ‘Lovers’ EP, on Permanent Vacation. His 'Again' EP on Maeve came out earlier this year along with two tracks on Permanent Vacation. Keep an eye out for him and his label; they sure are ones to watch in the long run.

Enjoy.

Awaken your senses with 'Ritmo del Alba', the latest musical journey from SpunOff, where the first light of dawn dances on the horizon with irresistible energy. Join Maruwa, Bliss Inc., Blu:sh, and Oslvangèr as they remix the atmosphere into a vibrant celebration of life, love, and rhythm.

Imagine stepping into the morning glow, the air filled with warmth and possibilities. As the world awakens, the dancefloor ignites, electrified by fluid rhythms, powerful basslines, and radiant melodies that evoke the spirit of endless summers.

'Ritmo del Alba' is an invitation to rise, move, and embrace the warmth of dawn, where the rhythm never ends on SpunyLove Records.

PREMIERE: SpunOff - Piscinão de Ramos (Olsvangèr Remix)

After heartbreak and a stolen hard drive and laptop, a new chapter opens. Amsterdam-based Tsepo returns to Intercept with a powerful two-tracker born from both emotional and material loss. Magic Bells was rediscovered after the theft of his laptop. It was a sketch made alone in a hotel room just days after a heavy breakup, bringing a more personal and emotional twist to Tsepo’s repertoire. On the flip, Phantom Fibre stands as Tsepo’s most polished club track to date, carefully crafted over 18 months and luckily mastered right before the laptop and hard drive theft. Both tracks complement each other perfectly in their percussive and detail driven nature as well as their playful dance with the listeners sense of expectation.
