The Upload 180

Seasoned and skilled producer Paco Buggin aka Silicodisco is back to French label Critical Monday! After appearing on Chapters 6, being remixed by Rigopolar, and 10, remixing Etane, this time he partners with Espacio Cielo’s big boss, Parissior (SXDNS206/FREEDL043), to deliver a vital EP for the Dark Disco/Indie Dance lovers out there. The Chapter 13 also brings two imposing remixes by Italian stallion Fabrizio Mammarella and Spanish virtuoso Alex Medina.

The first collaboration between Silicodisco & Parissior happened when Paco, in partnership with Xácome (Rastro Live), made his debut on Espacio Cielo last year. On the occasion, Parissior remixed one of the tracks. A little bit afterwards, the duo delivered a stunning EP on the rising imprint Banshees Records, featuring a solid remix by Kendal. Now on Critical (and hopefully somewhere else very soon), they repeat the formula of combining their darkest & gloomiest influences to bring to life two hellish original cuts. 

The track we were solicited to premiere is undoubtedly one of the best pieces the fruitful alliance has delivered so far. Combining the stamina of Hi-NRG with the attitude of EBM blended with shards of Techno, “Confessions” is one of those themes devoted to triggering frenzied reactions on the dance floor.

Premiere : Mount Kismet - Sirocco [Thisbe Recordings]

This week, we're excited to present a synth-laden, 80s-inspired mix by special guest @simfossil:

“The theme of this mix is a certain new age sound and flavor from 80s recordings. I traced this sound through the work of many Japanese artists (hence the Shibas on the cover) and I would say this became the backbone of the mix: music by the legendary Haruomi Hosono, Yuji Toriyama and many more. The vibe is unique and experimental, a new age-y, jazz-rock-y type of deal. I’ve been quite inspired for a long time by the character and creativity of this era; something about the guitar and instrumentation gives it that special touch. Personally, as a producer, I’m a big fan of Yamaha instruments, in particular the DX7, which I’ve come to associate with this time in music. Though Japanese artists are the central thread, I’ve made a kind of fusion of many different things that to me capture this special flavor.”

Long-time collaborators Terr & Daniel Watts link up for two superb tunes that get remixed by Queer on Acid and Mala Ika. Clash Lion co-founders Terr and Daniel Watts have been collaborating for more than a decade. Terr can do everything from epic dance floor tunes to romantic breakbeats to fresh electro. She has a fruitful relationship with Phantasy Records as well as having released on Correspondant and Hotflush. Meanwhile, Watts was part of the electro duo Digitaria alongside Terr and is now a solo artist with credits on Permanent Vacation and a desire to push himself into new musical realms. This new track is a result of one of their latest jam sessions, refined in both Barcelona and Berlin. Say the pair, "We love the track's name, 'Bring the Future', meaning that we need the future and we need it now, because the past is not enough anymore, and we need a new way to look and deal with things and people, with more social justice, freedom and love."

Pieter Kock - Facial Recognition (RIO08)

R.I.O. welcomes Pieter Kock aka DJ Peacock, one of the guiding souls behind the Berlin based bar/micro club O Tannenbaum. Musically active since 1986 as singer, guitarist, drummer and noisemaker, Peter already released a string of albums under different aliases like Billie and Ballie, The Hitmachine and Taladu.  Since the early 1990s he narrates haunting sonic stories as a DJ, playing a vast palette of styles - from cosmic and leftfield techno to tape experiments, sound-art, wave, world, jazz, punk, industrial, and all that weird pop music. Last year saw him liberating his first solo recordings under his civil name as a cassette tape named “Flocks & Murders of Entitled Spirits”, dropped by the Berlin/Vilnius based label Musikii. It unreels twelve sensitive tunes, made with the help of online synths and drum computers, Youtube travel- and talk show-videos or samples from Youtube synths- and rhythm box-demonstration videos. Now he refined his idiosyncratic style of music crafting a bit deeper and shares “Facial Recognition” – a gently twisted album that unites hypnagogic pop, library dances, cosmic funk, leftfield grooves and experimental sonic zones under one roof. His seven found sound tunes are layering a rhizomatic veil of unidentifiable web sounds, all transmuted into hazy looped ambiances, that trigger unconscious brain activities with future samples from the past, woven rhythm structures and a simultaneity of moments, derived from myriad world wide web informations. When it’s true, that nothing can have value without being an object of utility, then Pieter Kock managed to give the internet a new rate while using its manyfold informations as a tool to create art. Art, whose originality isn’t defined by the creator’s playful virtuosity. Instead, his sensibility of deciphering unheard rhythms, harmonies, and melodies in an avalanche of prefabricated ideas is his mastery. Pieter Kock transformed them into unfamiliar compositions with a familiar touch, that can evoke the feeling of being synchronous in a world of the many. A data rain without drops, a stream of consciousness without cognizance. Come in, drop out.

Master Phil Spéciale Louis Chedid - 22 Avril 2022

Maestro Ivkovic recorded an impressive elegy, where psychedelic rock psychedelia replaces post-punk ballads, and dark wave dusk disappears in the light of folk electronics - true songs of hope and reflection on the way to victory over the darkness of the mind.

Recorded specially for Grains of Peace - recreational zone and charity marathon on Kyiv-based 20ft Radio to help Ukrainians who have suffered from russia's aggression. Listen to music, donate and stay with Ukraine on www.20ftradio.net/grains-of-peace

don't cross the line

It’s always exciting when a DJ rips up the rulebook. Emerging from the Copenhagen underground is Prom Night, real name Shaq. He’s been touted as a bit of an upcoming gem as he blurs the lines between sleazy disco cuts and chuggers, italo house, afro-house and funk and beyond.

Originally from Aarhus he first began DJ’ing at just nine years old and describes his sound as being heavily influenced by 80’s pop culture hence the name. He reflects on his roots and recent embarkment into the world of music production:
 
“A lot of my productions are inspired by/ centered around a fusion of 70’s and 80’s Disco combined with modern and contemporary styles of House music.”

When we invited him to record this mixtape we weren’t entirely sure what we were going to get. What we’ve ended up is a spectacular showcase of Prom Night’s ability as a selector capable of switching quickly between genres and pushing the limitations. This one is a fun filled affair perfect for the weekend…
