TM8 Q: How do you go about putting a mix together?
A: "I start creating my sets with an attitude, often visualised in similar colors and translated to feelings, that I want to explore based on the music Ive recently found. This attitude can be found in tracks that differ in their genre, but share similarities in texture and design.  A lot of tracks have elements from multiple genres, where the track can seem like minimal techno because of its arrangement, but the kick is mixed in a way that resembles tribe or gabber. I always struggle with choosing a genre for a set, but I find that I can still create a continuous story by taking an element from the current track and gluing it together with the next song through a similar element in the upcoming song. But in the end the most important way for me to work is intuitively, always being emotionally present and aware if the upcoming track is leading away or towards the core attitude of the set."

Oslo-based DJ and producer IRA delivers a psychedelic, warped-out mix brimming with other-worldly melodies, minimalistic harmonics and industrial soundscapes. Having started out a few years ago in the Oslo rave scene via Enter Tribe, she has since co-founded the club concept Sirena alongside artists Vilde Wahl and Samuel Feste. As a talented producer, IRA has released her dark and dreamy productions on labels like MUSA, Global Pace and In Orbit. We're so excited to add her to our own label later this year.

EDBOY - RELEASE

We are extremely proud and excited to present DE/FRAGMENT’s third annual VA compilation. As customary in DE/FRAGMENT, we gave no guidelines to the artists to pursue a specific sound/emotion/style – we strive for our collaborators to express their vision unadulterated by expectation or rules.

This year’s compilation is more introspective and overall lighter in tone compared to our previous VAs, but it does not mean it lacks moments of darkness and club-oriented drive. With every year (and every VA we release), the world is becoming more uncertain, dystopian, and hopeless regarding a prosperous future.

For us at DE/FRAGMENT, it would seem the more balanced, dynamic range of VA3 in terms of emotion and soundscape reflects different approaches to coping with increasing uncertainty in the world.

For example, one might build a dreamy, cushion-like retreat in one’s mental palace of Selgor’s Computer, or one can fully surrender to the relentless pace of modern living, and enjoy the ride while it lasts – preferably in Obscur’s club with 2 Floors and a Basement, sprinkled with a copious dose of self-indulgent hedonism.

For full enjoyment, we recommend you listen to the VA in the given track order, as the track order plays a large role in our releases on how we thought the tracks flow best.
