electronic sets (house x techno x lofi x etc.) 2021 Part 5

M I X E S

Lost Soul Enterprises mastermind and crucial figure in the New York City dance music scene, holding residencies at Good Room, H0L0, and The Lot Radio; the Brooklyn-based producer and DJ Richard Gamble cut his teeth running the DIY space Odessa, in Memphis, which laid the foundation for his unique stroke.
Gamble hails from Memphis where he grew up making lo-fi rap beats, seeing post-punk electronic bands, synth-laced garage rock and experiencing the wild disco and soul of Hollywood Raiford's Disco. In recent years he has released music with several labels, including Mannequin, Primitive Languages, and Public System Recordings — glorifying and confirming its musical slant heavy, electro-tinged stompers, rounded off with an unruly acid cut and post-punk / EBM impetus.

1. What was your familiarity with the music of Hungary before you began researching the mix?

Before starting the mix I think I could have named maybe two producers that I knew with certainty were from Hungary, and maybe a couple of classical composers. Apart from that I was pretty clueless.

2. Were there any particularly useful resources for your research? Any people, labels, publications or other sources you’d like to shout out?

The resources that I ended up using the most were Bandcamp and Discogs, so no real surprises there. A friend of mine did introduce me to the app 'Radiooooo' though which I found to be a good quick reference point for which genres of music were popular in a particular country in different decades. There definitely a couple of gems that it throws up too!


3. You spent some time living in Budapest a few years ago. Did that inform the creative process of putting this mix together at all?

I wouldn’t say that it informed the process too much, on a conscious level anyway. I have to admit that when I was in Budapest my interest in electronic was still only in its infancy, so my appreciation of the scene there at the time definitely wasn’t as heightened as I think it should have been. I did become aware though that there were a bunch of different scenes bubbling under the surface if you knew where to look. I ended up at some pretty crazy parties in some pretty unexpected places.

4. This mix reflects your tastes as a selector very nicely: slick, moody, rhythmically complex. Were there any sounds or styles that you came across in your research that didn’t make the final cut?

Yeah for sure! There was a whole lot of post-punk and darkwave stuff that I started unearthing after a bit of digging that I would have loved to include, but the mix evolved in a different direction in the end. I also highly recommend checking out the band Korai Öröm, they were probably one of my favourite finds in the process.

We're incredibly pleased to welcome Dissemblance to the GF series. She is a very talented and poetic artist that the entire GF team have been following for a while and had the pleasure of meeting in person at Intergalactic FM fest this year. You can check her lauded album “Centauresse” on the mighty L.I.E.S. records, following up her 2019 debut album "Over The Sand" for Mannequin Records. Her productions bring a variety of sounds and invite us to explore the full range of her musical dynamics, leading the listener into her universe where the border between dreams and reality blurs into one, with no tangible beginning or end. If you happen to be in Paris on Friday, December 8th, do not miss her Dissemblance Live at Petit Bain to enjoy the full experience. For the series, she has crafted a special session where she gives us a unique and magical mix out of her studio in Paris, incorporating exclusive vocals and Rhodes improvisations over 80 beautiful minutes of thoughtful and sensory music. She plays tracks from the 80s: Schleimer K, DZ Lectric & Anthon Shield, taking a funky turn with Girl Unit, to arrive to some dirty acid music by Beverly Hills 808303, ending with a solo rough Rhodes impro through the Moog Cluster Flux pedal. This mix is literally a special journey through a solid selection, poetic vocals and inventive jams. Don't take our word for it: Lock in!

We have Mowgli on the series this sunny autumn day. A true digger completely surrounded by vinyl during his Pinkman record store days, the Rotterdam-based selector is known for packing a crate with minimal wave, proto-EBM, unknown boogie and the noisier edges of Chicago house and early techno. Powered by Pontoon Bookings, he makes up regular appearances across the country including PIP, Blijdorp Festival, Poing, BIT, RadioRadio, Skatecafe & Weelde, and many others. With upcoming shows in Utrecht, Amsterdam and more, it's a perfect time to hear what to expect. Lock in for an hour plus of solid grooves expertly selected by Mowgli.

We continue the GF series this week with one of the pillars of the Dutch electro scene, none other than DJ Overdose. Hailing from The Hague and based in Rotterdam, his story starts in the eighties. His vision was to create a vibe “where the subs are devastating and the beats are raw". He underpins his work with booming Miami bass and draws on his love for 80s hip-hop to conjure up his signature style. He's etched his mark on deeply loved and respected labels such as L.I.E.S., Creme Organization, Bordello A Parigi, Pinkman, Viewlexx, Murder Capital, his own RotterHague, and many others. Famously dexterous in the booth, DJ Overdose has well-honed skills that make him able to tear up a larger stage or connect with a more intimate crowd. He graces this series with a two-and-a-half-hour live recording at the Down The Rabbit Hole festival. Lock in!'
