Kicking off our Live from Dimensions 23' series with a fiery mix from Cartulis' @unai-trotti. This spine-tingling 2-hour recording takes us straight back to Saturday evening at Cosmos, Unai taking the reigns from Raphael Carrau and guiding us into the night with a signature blend of techno, electro, breaks and more. 

This is a first of many live recordings from the summer that we look forward to sharing in the new year.

From the mind behind Iceman Records comes ICELAB — a fresh new imprint focused on today’s producers, not the 90s/2000s legends. 

No reissues. No nostalgia. Just forward-thinking club music. 

After years of development and quiet dedication, Sugar Free proudly presents her official debut release ’Disociando’.

These four tracks, road-tested and familiar to those who’ve followed her, have finally taken their definitive form. The EP explores the dancefloor as a space for presence combining introspective textures with straightforward rythms, reflecting Icelab’s exploratory vision.

Sultry low-end grooves from a rising house enchantress.

"What kind of music do I actually want to play?" Every artist asks themselves this at some point in their career. What is a sound? And why do we personally identify with it? For Lea Lang, AKA dj sweet6teen, this question is the guiding force behind her RA Mix.

Born in Aachen, a German spa city close to the border with Belgium, Lang found her musical feet in the vibrant student hub of Cologne. It was while studying social work at the Technische Hochschule that she fell into the nightlife scene. 

Finding her sound wasn't an instant process. Lang cut her teeth on breaks-heavy house and prog (think Angel D'Lite), traces of which you can hear peppered across RA.1004. But as she explains in this week's Q&A, the pandemic years were, musically, a turning point. 

"High BPMs and short-lived trends became very dominant and I realised I couldn't stand the pace anymore," she writes. "That's when my sound naturally shifted into something more minimalist and timeless."

Nowadays, you'll find Lang in Berlin during the week, and on weekends… well, take your pick. A busy touring schedule means she's on the road almost constantly —this summer she's debuted at Horst Arts & Music, Butik, Dimensions and Panorama Bar (to name just a few). 

And her RA Mix? It oozes charm from the jump. Buoyant with gyrating low-end, it's hard to think her sound was ever anything else: vocals twirl around analogue basslines, material à la Eddie Richards and Terry Francis's historic Wiggle parties, as well as the kind of bongo action that wouldn't feel out of place in an Apollonia session. Call it waft, wiggle, smooch house—whatever it is, we like it.

MIX SERIES 009

A seminal, pioneering figure in the 90s and 00s UK tech house scene, a mix from Pure Science is as bucket list as they come. With his first Australia tour over New Years approaching fast, the mysterious tech house luminary reappears from his subterranean science den with a whopping five(!!) hour live set, full of moody unreleased gems and carefully reimagined classics from his genre shaping 30+ year discography.

Q. What an incredible journey this mix is! What sounds or feelings did you draw upon when gathering inspiration for the mix, and what listening environments could you imagine it being best enjoyed in?

A. Thank you for your kind words, Myles. I was initially asked to do a couple of hours, but thought, I would do at least four, and start with a good hour of unreleased ambient / downtempo tracks that I have made, that I wouldn’t necessarily play out to a dance floor, and build up the tempo. So to answer your question, I guess I was pulling out tracks that were made at a close tempo, and gradually build up to a Deep House / Techno range. There are loads of unreleased bits, which I will be featuring on upcoming albums. I guess the vibe was to keep it deep, and not to bang it out or play too obvious, and to add a couple of surprises in there, as it is for the Melbourne Deepcast after all.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that you were especially excited to share, and what is it about these songs that resonate with you so much?

A. I am not playing any records, CDJ’s or harmonicas on this mix.. Lol, Only Ableton Live, Korg ER1 drum machine, Roland System 100 modular (clone), Novation Nova & Evolution uc-33 midi controller.

There is one track that I have only played out once when I was in my teens, and it was written in 1989, when I was 15/16 years old. It’s called Circle, and is on the mix at around 3:43:43 mark (The hypnotic track with the organ).

Q. I know you’ve made special edits of some of your classic Pure Science records for this mix, tell us about how you like to reimagine your music from 20+ years ago, and how your sound has evolved since creating your most iconic records in the late 90s..

A. I’ve been re-recording, mixing, and mastering some of my classic releases, and preparing them for live, i.e. stripping down the parts to the basic form e.g. Kick, Snare, Hats, Claps, Toms, Congas, Percussion, Bass, Keys, Vox, etc, so I can re-arrange the tracks on the fly or break down to my drum machines / synths / recorded modular jams if I feel I want to improvise to the crowd a bit, or I can just concentrate on the blend of tracks, and the selection like a DJ would, and have complete control of the journey..

Q. We’re all very excited to see you play in Melbourne on NYD! Tell us about your hybrid live / DJ setup, is that something you’ve been refining for a while now?

A. I am very excited too, as I have been going through, my old floppy disks going back to 1987, from my old Ensoniq SQ80, as it has just come back from a service, and has had its 10-year internal battery replacement. 
I have been rediscovering tracks that I had totally forgotten about. Specifically a couple of tracks that I love, one is called Moon from 1992, and the other called Tibet from that same era. Both were made a little faster than what I would play out now, and were over 135BPM, but if you slow them down a bit, they just sound chunkier, and PHATer. x  p.s. It’s only hybrid if I DJ too, and I probably won’t have time for that. Live only on this trip. Thank you all for your time, and I hope to see you on the dance floor..

Closing set at Organik Festival 2019 in Hualien, Taiwan. Last 1,5 hours was a b2b with Diskonnected. 

Picture this: A slow steep drive down through a narrow jungle path, 
the sound of distant ocean waves, frogs, and insects is all you hear until suddenly the jungle opens up and you've arrived at Organik Festival.

Located on a secluded beach on the Taiwan east coast facing the seemingly infinite Pacific with awesome mountain rocks and jungle kneeling to it. A beast of a brand new model Funktion One sound system tuned to perfection and a rare gathering of the most loving and kind people you can imagine. 

This is the spirit of Organik. Nature, quality, peace, and a big coherent mix of dreamy techno, ambient, experimental, house, and disco. Personally have I never experienced a better festival. Was such a pleasure and honour to close the festival on a late Sunday night playing after Dorisburg. I got around different styles and wanted to play a non linear set and instead take people on a journey. I hope you feel some of the festival vibe in the recording.

The last hour and a half my friend and Smoke Machine Taiwan resident joined me in a b2b showing a rare housy side of his palette.
