Deep Space

Here are some live recordings of me playing in that dubby "Deep Space" style across genres and boundaries, where everything goes. You might hopefully find yourself surprised by what you hear, and transported some place like to the cosmos' outer reaches!

MOUNT & Nicolas Haelg - Something Good (Original Mix)

On the occasion of our 12th anniversary tonight, here's a quick throwback to what Deep Space was like in May 2007. Eight years ago already!  This bit is the opening set, appropriately laid-back and very eclectic. Enjoy

This live DJ mix is called “Spirit of Dub”, it's something I did for Dommune in Tokyo about a month ago while I was in Japan. This particular piece could have just as easily been titled “Connect The Dots”, as it goes the gamut from vintage Reggae Dub to Dance Hall, some Digidub then turns into mad Jungle beats , Drum&Bass and of course a good dose of some of my current trippy Dubstep faves. In my mind at least, it really helps bring a certain vibe into focus, not that I made any attempts to pick super-obscure choons that only trainspotters would know. Rather it was more about feeling that energy when all of these different tracks - many of my faves -  get mixed together live as they are here. 

There is no question that ‘bass culture’ has always had a profound influence on my approach to sound. But especially as of late, and in the context of Deep Space’s dubby agenda it’s become apparent that beyond fleeting trends I remain utterly attracted by this energy, completely drawn and fascinated by what it represents. 

For whatever reason I have recently been getting back to lots of Junglist tunes, probably due to how timely I felt the “Special Request” album was when it came out a year ago, and how it managed to reawaken this fascination with all of the futuristic mad drum programming some of these records were famous for.

Listening back to the mix, I can’t help but get the sense that a lot of what attracts me in all of this is that it feels as if it has such a direct connection to a strong Sci-Fi and Cyberpunk aesthetic, including a rather rebellious ‘take-no-prisoners’ attitude which is quite endearing and allows the listener to get ‘lost in the bass’. 

 In the end, it’s really all about how you feel when you play the stuff, and this one left no doubt in my mind. It also felt like a perfect way to conclude an amazing year, and set the stage for what’s to come in the next one in a way some might not expect in the least.

Spirit Of Dub - François K @ Dommune (11 - 2015)

When R$N was growing up, and the "doof-doofs" were still too hard to get close enough for bassbins, Normski was one of the few that had that "Yoof TV" tings bang on. With comic chops and an ear on the needle, this gent would easily combine our hip-hop formation with our house sensibility before we even knew the genres. So we are delighted to say that he has crafted us a mixtape, and shared some returns on the raves that were rumbling 'round the corner...

INTERVIEW

Normski - A 'Dance Energy Inspired' Ransom Note Mix

When we were approached with the chance to host an end of year mix by Felix from Hot Chip we were very happy. We feel it is a very suitable way to round up the 2015 calendar which has seen mixes from a vast array of great producers, dj's and heads. Hot Chip remain ever relevant to the world of club music and continue to push an oddball sound which somehow still works as well at a gig as it does in clubs. We caught up with Felix, their electronic mogul, to reflect on the year that was and listen to his selections from 2015.

REVIEW > http://inverted-audio.com/review/khotin-aloe-drink

Fresh off a remix on Public Release's (@eug) latest EP, Vancouver-based producer @khotin turns up on the San Franciscan label again with his new solo effort, 'Aloe Drink'. Like its title suggests, the present batch metes out four organically-grown chill house groovers, both mildly bracing and revitalising as can be.

Excerpt from the early part of  my DJ set at Deep Space NYC for our third anniversary party on April 17, 2006 at Cielo. So much energy that day, so things did get pretty intense from the get-go.

This is a fairly good example of how eclectic it used to be back in those days (twelve years ago), I was just as likely to drop Hip-Hop, Techno, Drum&Bass, House, Rock and Reggae and everything in-between. 

Rough around the edges, full of efx and never staying in one place for too long.
