"FANTASTICO" GUEST MIX by ANTONIO LUBRANO.
Ready to Dig it one more time?
Amazing work here by Antonio Lubrano, Rare Italo, Oddities,  Obscure 45 rpm from '70s & 80's Italian Golden Age Disco...Fantastico.
About Antonio :
At 15 I was a sound engineer in a private radio and I enjoyed mixing with old lenco turntables, spending hours and hours listening to old vinyls. At 18 I was already a resident DJ in the historic nightclub in my city called Papirus. I have always had a passion for unknown and not very commercial music and for some years this passion has become an obsession especially since I follow DJs of the caliber of E-Loud, Carlo Simula, Albion, Sasha Mambo and George Hysteric.

#009 DraugaiDraugamsRadio - Domeika

Raised on computer games, science fiction and hockey anthems. There’s no surprise that Marcus' music sounds the way it does. Playful melodies in a futuristic environment are presented in a big way—like an anthem is supposed to. 

Marcus’ DJ-sets could best be described as a retrospective journey into the future, taking on a lot of inspiration from the 80s and 90s with a strong focus on Italo, Dark Disco and EBM, as well as Synthwave and a hint of Trance.

We are more than happy to welcome Stephan(@earlorlog) to our hallooo Mix Series. In his mix he gives room for a feeling of imminence by considering Dub, Downtempo, Balearic, Cosmic Disco and related genres not as feel-good sounds but as a danceable form of “Widerständige Musik”. 🌬🌚🕊

↓ ↓ ↓ INTERVIEW WITH EARL ORLOG ↓ ↓ ↓

Q: Thanks for your contribution to our mix series, how did you prepare for this mix, and how would you describe the eventual result?

A: It started with the idea to make some kind of anti- war downbeat mix. Although it was clear from the start that I also wanted to include some new digs, the mix should centre around two classics: Timmy Thomas’ “Why Can’t We Live Together” and “Clouds Across The Moon” by the RAH Band. Anyway: By the time everything was done and dusted, I had replaced Thomas’ original with a cover version and all that was left of “Clouds Across The Moon” was a little vocal snippet. But I think I somehow managed to preserve the intended spirit: To tell it like it is. To let the story not be smothered in utopian beauty but to give room for a feeling of imminence, or subliminal distress and even a bit of good old German Angst … by considering Dub, Downtempo, Balearic, Cosmic Disco and more or less related genres not as feel-good sounds but as a danceable form of “Widerständige Musik”. 

Q: Is there a record in the mix that you associate with a special story?

A: Not exactly a story, but G. Rizo’s „Je Me Mentis“ is an alltime fave of mine. It’s a still pretty much underappreciated (wrongfully, of course) piece of abstract disco dub from Switzerland. A real heavyweight … practically at almost any speed.

Q: How do you dig for new music, and/or what kind of things arouse your interest in music?

A: I’m intrigued by music that is outlandish, naive, heartfelt, original, unfamiliar, genuine, odd, wild, touching, surprising, spooky, in any way trailblazing and/or trying to reach out to the stars - no matter from which era or part of the world. Ideally there’s a Saz, Oud, Sitar or Twang Guitar as well as a prominent Bass and some analogue Synths involved. Even better if it’s drenched in echo or reverb. I like to rummage through flea markets, second-hand shops, record fairs and cassette booths. Especially when I’m on holiday. As far as African, South American and Asian music is concerned I find a lot of stuff via local friends and Instagram contacts. And of course, what other diggers are spinning at parties, uploading to their YTs, or recommending in our chats is a huge inspiration.

Q: One record you will never let go, and one that doesn’t want to leave your wantlist?

A: Never let go: Beyond Sound - “Diamond Harbour”. Holy grail: Os Tincoãs - “s/t”. A record I managed to finally cross off my wantlist this week: Z.I.Z. - “…Aber Sie Machen Es Göttlich” 

Q: Music bonds people. Any djs/projects/shops/etc.. you would like to shout out?

Hallooo Mix Series No.11 – Earl Orlog

Cepheid Dreams is a star collapsing and expanding in sound. It begins with faint pulses, then swells into a dense, shimmering storm of noise and melody—an audio supernova that blurs glitch, drone, and cosmic rhythm. The track is both dreamlike and relentless, echoing the light curves of Cepheid stars as they throb across the galaxy.
