FACT mix 629: Idle Hands/Chris Farrell

It’s been a little while since we managed to lock down a poddy for you lot. Next time we won’t leave it so long, promise! Anyway, down to business…

Dutch native Sanja drops in on this episode with a sultry blend of rhythmic house, dreamy dancefloor tools and bleepy breaks all rolled in to one delightfully neat package. She’s been quietly crafting her style behind the scenes absorbing music in any which way she can. Now it’s time to finally see the fruits of her labour come to light.

Episode 47 of the BSU podcast series comes from co-founder himself, @hamishcole. Now based down in London but still heading north for monthly throw-downs, this is a special mix that arrives ahead of the launch of Butter Side Up Records. 

It gives you a flavour of what to expect from the label and exclusively features music produced by friends and family, with mainly unreleased and forthcoming tracks, including some that will eventually make their way onto wax. Serving up the sizzlers are the likes of Christian Jay, Youandewan, Gene On Earth, Junes, BLM, Harry Mccanna, Crump, Tom Ellis, TMS and more.

Nicolas Lutz comes to us from Uruguay via Berlin and we believe he's on the move somewhere new as we speak, where to we don't quite know but that pretty much sums Nicolas up. He's an enigma, outside of the mainstream, nonconformist. This sentiment also perfectly sums up his DJing, always outsider, never predictable.  

Lutz's sets are immaculately programmed and include music that he has lovingly sought out, music will inevitably become hunted by an increasing numbers of his dedicated, record digging fans. Nicolas first played for us at our off Sonar event in Barcelona in 2017 and his attention to detail and ear for strange, memorable sounds stood out that day. Here he delivers a very rare recorded mix that takes in ambient sounds along with house, breaks, electro and techno but it's not the genres, it's  the underlying texture and detail on display that is the defining feature of episode 114. So ahead of his appearance at Fort Punta Christo for Dimensions 2018, sit back and lose yourself in two hours of Nicolas Lutz...

A Retrospective look at Fullbarr   [Label Mix]

Co-Founder @ KMAH RADIO.

"it all makes for another interesting EP from fullbarr, which we're following more avidly with each release"-MIXMAG 


<b>It’s reassuring to know that the young bloods still care; 
 that flooding charts is not always the MO, and that artistic value can still be prized above ubiquity. 
Take Fullbarr for example – a boutique label of love from the mind of 24 year old Arthur Barr. He’s not yet an established DJ, a hyped producer or anything else; rather he’s a fan of fine electronic music who wants to add to the global conversation with his own unique accent.

And he has been doing just that with an admirably DIY approach since 2010, fusing the depths of dub, the power of techno and the mood of house into mature and alluring soundscapes that take inspiration from “parties, music, artists and friends from around the globe.” It’s a simple and honest mission, and one that is serving the Bradford based label well, with support coming in from both on and offline press (think RA, DJ Mag, De: Bug). Of course, more important than what some holed-up desk jockeys say, is what the all important disc jockey says…. And alas, with plays and chartings from top-dogs including Delano Smith, Seth Troxler, Jozif, Ripperton, Kenny Larkin, Ed Davenport, Iron Curtis fullbarr can sleep easy.
