IA MIX 349 Sofie Birch

At Unsound 2021, Shackleton and Wacław Zimpel will present a new work entitled ‘The Spirit Still Remains’, an Unsound-commissioned performance involving alto clarinet, electronics and voice. Broadly understood as ritual and devotional music, the work will explore transcendence, love and death.
As part of the Unsound podcast series, Shackleton and Zimpel were asked to make a mix that would somehow connect to this project, to perhaps reveal some of its inspirations and reference points.
Shackleton and Zimpel say: “Over the course of the past couple of years, we have often recorded or rehearsed together. Generally at the end of the day, we might get a couple of beers in and listen to other people's music. Some of it is stuff we both know and like, some of it music that one of us thought the other might like. When we were asked to do the mix, we thought it might be good to select music that we had listened to together. Then we decided to expand the scope a bit to fit more of a common theme. Broadly speaking, the mix is intended to be ritual, sacred or meditative music in various forms, something we are trying to achieve with our project. We hope you enjoy it.”

For their second installment, the Chateau Chepere crew brings on board legendary producer Stephan Laubner under his STL moniker, with four time warping pieces of music. With his distinctive and intricate sonic palette, Laubner extracts from his hardware different musical colors and shapes to produce singular atmospheres. Opening up the EP is Fly Fly, an epic 11 min minimal house trip full of tension and excitement, followed by Eargrind, an eerie, laid back Detroit leaning ballad. On the flip is Light Up, a spaced out, playful and bittersweet number that will revitalize any hazy after-hours dancefloor. Closing up the EP is Unlike Dislike, a quirky, jacking and mischievous techno workout for the packed club. This diverse ep will pull the listeners and dancers into Laubner's multifaceted, low key but captivating universe.

Amir Alexander - Love Notes To Brooklyn

In loving memory of Nathaniel Jay

Smallville 58 - Amir Alexander - Love Notes To Brooklyn

Please meet London based DJ and producer, former Cafe Del Mar resident, and our long time close friend Phil Mison (@cantomamusic). Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Hi Phil, many know you as one of the DJ's who has played all the best sunset spots across the globe. How did your summer look this year, still been scoring sunsets here and there?

PM: My summer was great. I travelled to Amsterdam, Cork, Copenhagen and Barcelona and had some nice gigs in the UK. My friend Deke has opened a bar on the seafront in Margate, you get pretty epic sunsets down there. I played a few records one evening and managed to fit in a few old cafe classics as the sun disappeared into the sea. 

MFM: Please tell us a bit about how it all started for you?

PM: I grew up in the 70’s, so there were quite a few different influences. David Bowie ‘Life On Mars’ was an early memory, and I was obsessed with Blondie. Parallel lines was the first album I bought. Later it was Northern Soul, Electro, nothing really that mellow! In 87 I met a couple of people who were really into House. I started going to groove records in soho to buy records like Adonis - No Way Back, Ten City - Devotion. Then as 88 rolled around I got into the more Balearic side of things. Later in 89 I’d pop into Reckless Records for second hand stuff and started to browse the New Age section where I got things like Kitaro  ‘Tunhuang’ and Paul Greaver ‘Joy’. Those records were the starting point really. 

MFM: DJing in clubs to make people dance never really attracted you?

PM: I’d say pretty much most of my DJing has been in clubs. I started at the Milk Bar in Soho in 1992 after giving Darren Emerson a tape. Even though I was doing the warm up and playing mellow stuff at the beginning, you had to build it up to a full dance floor by the end. In 1996 and 2000 I was the tour DJ for Lefttfield, playing in front of 1000 odd people. ‘Just get it going before we come on!’ Alongside Ross Allen and Rob Da Bank, I was resident at Bar Rhumba for our Next Level night in 1997. It lasted a year and we opened with Harvey and closed with Andrew Weatherall. I Have to mention Moonboots and Jason Boardman’s night Aficionado too. I always enjoyed playing to a dancefloor there, they’ve kept the Balearic flag flying since 1998. 

MFM: At what point did you got into making music on your own? 

PM: I’d worked on a project for Kenneth Bager in 1994. Then later on he started his Music For Dreams Label, and asked me if I would be interested in making an album.  So the first Cantoma album was started in Copenhagen in 1999, and finished in London in 2003. 

MFM: How do you come up with a new song, is there a certain Phil Mison way to it? Do you write the parts for the musicians?

PM: It usually starts with an idea that pops into my head. Sometimes a memory or travelling will get a melody going, and I’ll sometimes hum it into my phone and use that as a starting point. Ive worked with Engineer/Producer Robin Twelftree on all the Cantoma albums. I’ll go into Robin’s studio and usually start with some basic keyboards, then I’ll play a bassline in. I’ll take the demos away and think about what would work on the tracks. For some musicians the music is written down. Ive worked with Robin Lee from Faze Action on a few Cantoma tunes, and he usually transcribes my basic melodies onto sheet music. Other times I’ll play the melodies on a keyboard or hum the tunes for the musicians to follow along to. On some tracks I’ll write the lyrics too and get a singer to record on a track. There’s a lot of going back and forth until I’m happy with the final cut. The music rarely ends up sounding like the first version.

MFM: Making a mix must have been a piece of cake for you :) What is this mix like?

PM: I went back through my 92-94 selection and picked a selection of the lesser played records. Memories of magic times at the Milk Bar and warm summer evenings at the Cafe del mar.

RX5 - LOSOUL - URBAN WORKS (RAWAX)

REC 006 w/ Dyed Soundorom b2b Gene On Earth

The REC series compiles outstanding performances recorded in the club throughout the year, highlighting artists representing our love for electronic music.

Back in November 2022, Dyed Soundorom and Gene On Earth performed a stirring 3 hours long back-to-back in our Room 01. Along the way, the two protagonists deliver seamless transitions one after the other. Effortlessly.

Forging a voyage through house and beyond, the recording set is intuitively filled with flickering sounds and stripped-down grooves, as seductive as we like. Sometimes brainy yet made to make you move, it’s not your average artist combo. Nuggin’ it up!

Next up we have London-based and all round lovely chap, JustHenry.   

Henry has his own YouTube channel (very, very good btw) which he dedicates to sharing music from his own multi-genre collection that’s yet to be released online. In his own words, it’s his way of giving back to the online digging community that’s provided him with such great music over the years. Lovely stuff.

It’s a real pleasure for MHR to bring you Henry’s debut podcast mix ‘Deep Down in the Dub’. A Ronseal title for a mix that provides exactly what it says on the tin. 

Plenty more from us over the coming months, but for now - get your ears round this one and show him some love!

Picnic artists very own dig this jump onto the podcast series with this smooth offering of melodic deep house and subtle tones. Gathering pace later in the mix, the groove laden, warmer sounds of dig this are architecturally set together highlighting the boys steady approach to selection and tightly woven mixing.

Jeffrey Sfire’s introduction to the underground dance scene and illegal warehouse parties of Detroit
occurred at the tender age of 15. This escape from suburba led him to some of the city’s most talented
DJs and musicians, who soon exposed him to a new culture of creative riches. Learning by example,
Sfire’s taste and skills as a DJ developed naturally and he soon began playing out at parties, clubs and
sleazy gay afterhours, usually entering covertly through back doors or with a fake ID. A move to Chicago
exposed Sfire to a whole other side of dance music history, including "Italo Disco" and genre jumping dj
styles of the Hotmix 5 radio djs. He spent afternoons digging through record store crates, meeting retired
DJs and developing his musical palette. Having held numerous club residencies, he regularly plays at
Panorama Bar and Cocktail D’amore in Berlin, The Carry Nation and Wrecked in New York, Hard French
in San Francisco, and his own party Loosen Up! In Detroit, consistently offering a finely-tuned selection of
Acid House, Italo Disco, Latin Freestyle, & 90’s NYC House. In 2013 Jeffrey and SOPHIE released the
first untitled “Sfire” record on Cocktail d'Amore Music out of Berlin which has become a cult classic. Since
then the duo has released 3 more untitled “Sfire” records. He is currently living in Detroit and is one half of
the Italo/Electro duo Looky Looky with Ian Clark released on Dark Entries records of San Francisco

At this point, Shy One might be familiar to most music fans as one of the hosts of NTS's daily breakfast show, Soup To Nuts, where she helps listeners across the UK and Europe settle into their morning routines with an eclectic and soulful selection of dance music and downtempo. But the London artist has been around a lot longer than that, with a discography that goes back well over a decade. 

She started releasing music as a regular on Scratcha DVA's label, and it was there that she sketched out a recognizable but impressively varied approach rooted in her home base of London. On her records, Shy One sometimes feels like London incarnate, synthesizing the histories of Black British dance music—drum & bass, grime, UK funky, broken beat, jazz, you name it—into one syncretic and immensely appealing sound. But her music glows with the warmth of American deep house, too, which lends it a timeless, ageless quality that has proven immensely appealing. She furthers this mission with Private World, a party she started with Ruby Savage. The name kind of says it all: she's inviting you to her own personal space, but what awaits is a whole wide world of music and culture.

Her RA Podcast feels like a hybrid between a club DJ set and her morning show, and here, she zeroes in on a the lineage of American house music from the '90s and beyond, featuring tracks from the likes of Green Velvet, Marcellus Pittman, Roy Davis Jr., Wbeeza, Jay Daniel and more, plus a spotlight from Baltimore club king DJ Technics. It's patient and easygoing but perfect for a small dance floor (or a livingroom party), focused but stylistically diverse. It's everything we've come to expect from an artist like Shy One, who weaves stories and histories with her DJ sets, and does it effortlessly, too.

Chunk: Smallville Records Special with Julius Steinhoff - 18 November 2023

A tribute to Jamie Tiller. NM033 is a bow of gratitude for his abundant generosity, musical heritage and kind friendship.

Regular listeners may have noticed the frequent shout-outs to Jamie - for good reason. Especially many of the ambient records he gave me introduced me to a lot of amazing music and discoveries, with lots of spins both on air and at home.

Here's a waaay-too-tiny selection of a few personal favourites, records and for the most part, Music From Memory releases he snuck into my bag, and shared with the world over the years. And some clumsy anecdotes. Apologies for any messyness on the info-parts, this is by far the most difficult episode I've ever done.

Thank you Jamie - we miss you.

Rest in paradise <3

Honored to have Biko Vledder @sint-bikolaas setting off the Self Help mix series with 80 minutes of South African house and kwaito deep cuts to coincide with our first release Classic Club Culture. Five tracks of SA house & downtempo produced by the prolific Quentin Foster (Vision, Yeah Bo!, Citi Express).
Available for preorder here:
https://soundbathrecords.bandcamp.com/album/classic-club-culture-e-p
Here's what Biko had to say about the mix
"When Matt asked me to record a mix to accompany the reissue of tracks by Quentin Foster on his new label Sound Bath Records I felt excited and delighted. It’s really cool that these forgotten tunes by Quentin get a new life and more people are going to hear his work. When I started to select tunes for this mix the first tunes I chose were two tracks from different project produced by Quentin. From there I tried to build the rest of my mix around these cornerstones with other South African 90’s dance cuts."

Self Help Vol. 1 - Biko

Don't say we aren't good to you. Ending the year with a bang we bring you a special mix from the one and only Steve Rachmad, the longstanding Dutch techno veteran. A pivotal figure in dance and electronic music, he has cast a spell upon techno in a manner unlike any other, his music championed far and wide by a sprawling array of dj's. Never one to stand still he has channeled his creativity across a number of personalities and guises having released as A Scorpion's Dream, Adverse Match, Black Scorpion, Continuous Cool and of course Sterac. 

His music is machine driven, drawn on a wealth of experience and experimentation through hardware and analogue equipment whilst in the booth his approach as a dj is versatile and constantly changing. 

This mix was recorded at Thuishaven as part of the close of their winter season.
