‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

What’s good, good people? Doesn’t it feel nice to be slowly transitioning back towards a sense of normality? Yes, yes it does. Do I have the perfect accompaniment for this shoulder state of mind? Yes, yes I do. Number 63 comes courtesy of Oz legend Biancolato aka Nick Whiteside. 

Nick has been around the traps for a few moons, a tidy list of productions and a DJ’ing resume that would get him almost any job, the Biancolato moniker is a recent excursion into a bit more intimate territory and damn does he do it well. I cannot stress this enough, THIS MIX SLAP’S (hard), oozing maturity and understanding beyond comprehension, it transcends any situation and directly dumps you into a good (great) mood. So many perfectly tempered tunes, meticulously pieced together to build the ideal ‘home’, and that's exactly what it is, a place to be comfortable, a place to feel safe, a place to share with your loved ones. This is the perfect embodiment of the series, a real chance to show and tell a different side. I've blasted this thing countless times over the past months and I can guarantee its freshness, welcome to your new soundtrack. I actually think he put it best into words (see below) 

Bless up. X

His words>>> 

It’s the endless twilight of an adolescent summer, long, lazy hours poking rocks with sticks on warm afternoons and waiting for something to happen, like finding a blue-tongued lizard during a dust storm, perhaps.

It’s your first kiss, soft, terrifying. The smell of another person’s breath.

It’s running until you can taste copper.

It’s lying in bed, your lover by your side as dappled sunlight filters through lace curtains, slowly moving across the wall.

It’s the smell of the forest in the rain. The smell of Mrs. Palmer’s surfboard wax. The smell of fresh cow shit. It’s the smell of old books and timber; slightly damp but comforting. It’s the motor oil in your grandfather’s shed.

It’s the condensation on the kitchen window on a winters night as potatoes boil on the stove.

It’s drinking jasmine tea from a jar with a friend, loose leaf with chunks of ginger and lemon slices.

It’s leaving home and returning.

It’s sitting alone on a moving train, watching.

It’s seeing something so painfully beautiful it hurts in your throat.

It’s knowing, and not knowing all at once.

It’s thinking in loops and regret. It’s an unwavering optimism.

It’s the comfort of familiarity; a sound, a scent, a snippet of melody that conjures a space in your mind, perhaps forgotten.

It’s a selection of music, of records. A soundtrack to a journey that may have already happened, or may be about to begin. Perhaps it involves distance, momentum. Perhaps inertia.

A journey can be soothing and fulfilling, rewarding, but also sometimes uncomfortable. Things happen, maybe unexpectedly. 

But by the end of the journey, by definition, you’ve arrived somewhere, even if that somewhere happens to be right back where you started from.

@madalba was born in July 1985 in Bari, south of Italy. From a very young age, her musical interests moved across a broad spectrum, going from house and dance music to rock and punk leading her lastly to techno and club-culture.

At age 22 she approached the local scene as Djane with numerous performances in the club circuit of Bari. Through the years she has developed a continued and careful respect of the musical experience. She moved to Berlin in 2011 started djing with only vinyl records.

This helped her to build a strong reputation as an underground techno DJ, providing opportunity for her to play in clubs such as Tresor, About Blank, SchwuZ, SO36 and Mikz in Berlin where she lives today.

In September 2011, she spent one month in Detroit where she started the collaboration with DJ Seoul, Tom and Angie Linder of Detroit Techno Militia. This travel has definitely and radically changed her approach to the techno concept, which she considers more a political and social phenomenon and a lifestyle than just a musical genre.

Back to Berlin she immediately came into contact with the queer scene, then in full bloom, building a network primarily of interpersonal relationships based on mutual support and collaboration, a network that naturally strengthens over the years, leading her to basically all queer realities of the city and beyond. At the same time she cultivated her main profession as a trauma surgeon in a historically male-dominated environment which strengthens her awareness of her role as a woman in a still strongly male-dominated society.

Thanks to these solid experiences she became resident of the party Homopatik, at the time the flagship of the Berlin queer reality.

Her first releases on vinyl came out in 2014 on DTM-Label (Detroit) and Arkita Records (Berlin), the label that she spawned together with Synkopheit till 2016.

In 2017 she launched her own record label Future D\'e9j\'e0 Vu releasing 5 EP respectively by Transient X4, Ken Karter, Mannella a.k.a. DHARAXT, Phontonz & Shcuro, Rage Therapy.

In September 2017 she played her first house set for the summer closing of the Berlin party Buttons.

In Summer 2018 Madalba became resident dj at the historical club Tresor in Berlin. The same year she collaborated with the London based crew Aria with a party series in the UK capital.

Currently she is techno resident dj and co-organizer of the party Buttons in About teaming with Danilo Rosato, Anna Bolena, Jabob Meehan, Shingo Suwa, Akirahawks and Paolo Di Nola.

Over the years, his awareness of the communicative power of his role as a DJ not an end in itself but always aimed at creating a network based on the basic values of absolute respect for all forms of diversity, has been strengthened to the point carrier of all her artistic and interpersonal expressions.

Here, @madalba delivers a 5h hours stunning set recorded straight from the @tresorberlin booth.
Many thanks to the artist and the mythic club.

GUEST SERIES : Madalba (Tresor Extended Set)

Turbo Thot encapsulates all things up-beat, driving, and high-NRG. Swerving between an array of genres, her creative beginnings came in the form of her passion for hip-hop, and Southern trap. Her style has evolved into one that’s optimal for the club, influenced by Seth Troxler, The Martinez Brothers, and Loco Dice, traversing tech-house, disco, indie-dance, and tribal textures. As a long-standing resident at Section 8, Glamorama and Melbourne’s Music Room, Turbo Thot’s output is one that pulls listeners onto the dance-floor, daring them not to lose themself.
