@edavd is the project of multidisciplinary artist Emmanuel David Monteiro. A deep thinker, E Davd brings a theoretical and conceptual lens to his work - if you listen deeply and with intent, you can begin to understand some of the complex ideas that underscore his music. Process driven and creative, E Davd is not bound by genre, rather working with different patterns, rhythms and approaches to sound to explore his connection to, and barriers to ancestry and heritage. Starting out age nine on the congas, playing Cape Verdean and afro music in his dad’s band, E Davd now uses electronic music to explore his own ideas about black music. Now, he uses techno as a mechanism to explore complex themes such as the nexus of nature and technology, Indigenous technologies and afrofuturism. His radio show and soon to be record label ‘Visions of Utopia’ on Nomad Radio also encapsulate these themes, looking toward a utopian society that is not only equal and free from racial violence, but one in which blackness is privileged.  E Davd uses his guest mix on Passing Notes to present a deep excavation into the internet, himself and afrofuturism - expect a sound collage of original works - finished and ‘unfinished’, samples and snippets from afrofuturism documentary ‘The Last Angel of History’. I had a wonderful time talking with E Davd about afrofuturism, ancestry, blackness, black music and more.

Try And Try [Mix, 2014]

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Eighty six comes fresh from the murky depths of Eora, from none other than Command D aka Charles Fester, born of royal blood, professor of mad dubs, and a 4 wheeled aficionado. Saturate your speakers in fat for the next 70 minutes and then fry until crisp. Stone-cold static rhythms, deep-ended depth charges, and echoes beyond space.

We come (back) in peace! And with a gift from Chaz, A man who spends most of his days getting inside other people's heads, he offers us a rare glimpse inside of his own. A timeless selection of ardent classics, gracefully woven together with love and affection. Put your blinds down and your feet up. Much love. X

The unofficial mayor of Naarm aka Dawn Again brings us a gift from above, a three hour stopover filled to the brim with the deepest of chill core cuts and mind-bending principles. The literal embodiment of the soundtrack to spring. This is made for the sun. Slip, slop, slurrrrrp. Xo

A mix recorded in the Gun by our talented young friend ED Kent.
Melbourne based yute Ed ( and honcho of Sleepr Tape Records) bookended a summer in London playing gigs at The Gun. We managed to capture the second from early september. Its a stunning mix of murky sounds, dub, offbeat eighties  lo fi pop, post punk, hip hop, and finishing and lovely, crunchy low slung bangers. Its the full six hours and its fucking great. Fair play young man x

Ed Kent Plays The Gun

A masterclass in aerial hypno grooves from Vancouver's @thurlowjoyce, fresh off the back of a mind melting split EP for NAFF alongside Priori and Regularfantasy packed with euphoric peak time delights.

Q. Hey Cole, what inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time/place in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. Hey Myles. Thanks for having me. I've been Deepcasting since day one. It's a blessing to be able to contribute.

I'm in between a few worlds here. I'm originally from Vancouver, Canada, and have been lucky to soak up Canadian sounds since my early days at the Mood Hut parties of free sparkling water. Mood Hut, NAFF, Plush, ISLA, Planet Euphorique, 1080p, they’re cozy CanCon scenes and there's a strong connection between Vancouver & Montreal. 

In parallel I've been stuck on the free form ambiance of 3 X L, Motion Ward, West Mineral Ltd., Kwia adjacent sounds. I'm currently spending a few months in Berlin and just played my first show at Kwia thanks to Nat Marcus (she’s the best), and it's an incredibly unique space, the effect of the experience has been lasting.

This mix feels like a connection between these experiences. I often feel like my taste is a bit too heavy, emotional, euphoric, or dark, and decided to lean into that. There's some softer sounds I've been lingering on mixed with a lot of functional high energy strict business. I hope there's something the listeners can enjoy as well.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart, or new or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment?

A. Naturally there's a healthy amount of CanCon in here. There's so much amazing stuff coming out of NAFF right now. I've been hung up on releases from URA, Purelink and Cousin, as well as one from Cousin's (lovely) label, Moonshoe. Some real bliss from Special Guest DJ as well as with Pontiac Streator as crimeboys. A few favourites from friends (Sverre!), and I've contextualized some of my own. 

Q. I really enjoyed your recent split EP alongside Priori and Regularfantasy for the wonderful NAFF label. Tell us a bit more about those songs you recorded and how it all came together for the label as your debut EP?

A. Thank you! That means a lot. 

Lemon Citrus and Varial are 100% pandemic tracks. I've always struggled to push my own stuff and haven't released much of it or done a good job of putting myself out there. I was writing a lot in isolation during this period and remember trying to be more comfortable with the idea of sharing music, and doing so with my friend Jamie (Big Zen). 

The NAFF connect came about pretty organically. Francis and Adam have been amazing to work with. Jamie’s a G. It was, and still is a trip. NAFF has always been a favourite label of mine. It was a dream realized to be able to contribute.

Thanks again for having me.
