Well, that was a weird couple of months. Apologies for the lack of transmissions but I’m sure everyone understands the complete lack of motivation and inspiration that has been cast across the world. That being said, it hasn’t slowed everyone down that's for sure. I’m completely backed up with incredible mixes from incredible people, so let’s get back to our original program. 

In celebration of such, we’re excited to return with a (gentle) bang in the form of episode 60, via the incredibly talented Kia. Unless you’ve been living under a rock (which is completely understandable) you would’ve noticed Kia’s light in many facets; an incredibly talented DJ, a passionate and dedicated label boss, and associated mix series runner (big ol tip’o’that to Animalia // link below), woolen based wunderkind, and most importantly a fucking lovely human being. 

And if you do know Kia then as you would expect, her submission to the series is nothing short of breathtaking. A perfectly constructed soundscape, daydreaming of an above-average paradise. Emotionally inciting on all fronts, it’s nice to feel things again and I think this is perfectly timed with the world opening back up again. The subtly rhythmic pulses of 4x4 drums reactivating that lost sense of liberating yourself on the dance floor (finally back in our sights) and the ethereal harmonies that keep you grounded on the bedroom floor. What Kia manages to do in an hour is exceptional, a short story that translates to a full novel, a true testament to her talent and understanding of music and all of the concepts that go with it. Best served through headphones with room to move.

Enjoy it every way you can. 
 
I hope you’re all well and thank you for listening. 
 
Love.

Eighty six comes fresh from the murky depths of Eora, from none other than Command D aka Charles Fester, born of royal blood, professor of mad dubs, and a 4 wheeled aficionado. Saturate your speakers in fat for the next 70 minutes and then fry until crisp. Stone-cold static rhythms, deep-ended depth charges, and echoes beyond space.

Episode 225 of Passing Notes tonight celebrates one of Naarms most brilliant artists, Rings Around Saturn.

It’s hard to know where to start with an inimitable artist like Rings Around Saturn. Rory McPike’s expansive back catalogue demonstrates his unwavering commitment to creative exploration. With nearly a decade of releases under a cosmopolitan suite of aliases (Dan White, Bleekman, Cactus Head, Pickleman), Rory’s ability to compose such diverse sounds, at the highest of quality is truly profound.

From earth shattering bass, DnB and jungle to nostalgic, sun-drenched shoegaze and quite literally everything in between, Rory is a master of his analogue electronic craft. His forthcoming album ‘All Things Shining’ set for release on Best Effort Records showcases 10 forward thinking tracks that effortlessly incorporate uniquely, skittering synths, swirling ambience and crystalline, glistening electronica into an emotive and immersive package. This release looks back at new age ambient whilst propelling us into a futuristic world of contemporary IDM.

Broadcast live for Passing Notes episode 225 on PBSfm 106.7.

Command D is a producer and DJ living and working on Gadigal Land in Eora/Sydney. His productions tie together dub techno, underground house and contemporary club to create stimulating atmospheres with plenty of subtle details. While his DJ’s sets draw from a wider range of influences, they’ve always got the dance in mind. Expect moments of introspection, catharsis and bliss, all floating around in a smoke haze.

Pepperprint bacon and eggs and some words from the artists -

"In March, by a small stream in a valley on Dharawal Country near Gerringong, the first Pepperprint festival was held. Over an afternoon, evening, and then morning, about 300 people came together for a special musical experience. The lineup was programmed with time-of-day and a considered arc in mind: live hip-hop, rolling tech house, an arps-and-acid live PA reminiscent of early days orbital, and an all-wax electro set to polish it off.

We were lucky enough to be asked to wake up first on the Sunday morning, power up the generator, and play the bacon-and-egg-roll set from 8am to 2pm, to get the weary revellers out of bed to cement the dancefloor friendships of the previous night. We woke up, left our comfy car (tim) and tent (gus), and had a Rainbow Boss and a dip in the river. As the sun slowly started to creep into the valley and lift the mist and the dew, we had the joy of powering up the generator and Funktion Ones and getting the morning started.

Our SD card only lasted for two of the five hours that we played for, so here’s what we got - from minute 45-or-so onwards; just before we broke our “no drums for the first hour” rule.

Cheers to Tuc, Body Corp, Cousin, Command D, Au4r33y, and many, many more for blowing our minds and hearts on the Saturday night. Cheers to Ghi, Sherry, Rhys, Juj, G-Lyon, and those who danced it out to Soul Capsule with us. Thanks to Oska for being the perfect focus group to run our next few tunes by, and sorry we never played any Shackleton. 

Huge thank you to Kev, to Jake, the property owners, and sincere apologies to the neighbours. Thanks and love to the whole Pepperprint crew. We can’t wait to come back."

After listening to many Freerotation recordings over the years, it feels a bit surreal to share this one. I had such a great time meeting the freero community. Very special to feel the positive vibe and patience to build something new.

Conjuring memories of daydreaming in the midsts of suburbia. A new mix from @priori-ties

Some words from Priori: “I grew up in a working class neighbourhood of Longueuil, Quebec, Canada. Being an only child in the suburbs meant I spent a lot of time daydreaming and contemplating my environment. I was a bit of a melancholic kid so post-punk and ambient music made a lot of sense to me when I discovered them. I stumbled upon an album called Strike by 154 by accident, probably wanting to download something else off of Kazaa. It really changed things for me as a teenager and I still hold it dear. There's a song from it in the mix, along with a bunch of other things that bring up similar feelings for me.”

“As for news:
Alex (Dust-e-1) and I are putting out a new record as ANF on NAFF, should be out April 26th.
Some more collabs and solo things coming out in the summer.”
