TILT.cast 08 Radical Softness

@radicalsoftness, a name which, at first sight, seems controversial and yet has a very much deeper meaning. Being a somewhat radical person when it comes to vouching for values such as the right of self expression, establishment of safer spaces and FLINTA visibility in the scene. On the other hand being a radical person stands and falls with the softest part of any human – the inner self. 

On the musical side of the coin, Radical Softness immediately evokes a sense of warmth and force at the same time, which again represents the artistic direction of the name itself. 
Powerful rhythmic patterns go hand in hand with mellow synths – together on a mission to invite dancers to reach the subconscious in an almost therapeutic way. 
Radical Softness introduces repetition to you as the means to escape daily sorrows, to feel again and gain a few hours of freedom from a seemingly fast-paced and cold outside world.

Radical Softness’ desire to be a DJ already subconsciously began in 2013 when they started working at a local bar, where they quickly became the one in charge of the music playlists. This marks the beginning of following a path down the rabbit hole into a new universe and into digging through artists entire discographies. 
Their move to Berlin in 2015 further shaped their vision of music. By that time Radical Softness was already asking people in their circle to show them how to DJ, but never felt welcome enough to actually dive head first into the blue. 

In 2019 the switch luckily flicked, they stepped behind the decks, quickly gained recognition, especially through them well-received sets on HÖR Berlin and combined their deep music collection with the ability to quickly grasp how DJing works from the core. And yet, what we hear right now is just the beginning of what Radical Softness has to offer.

Messiahwaits - Techno Germany Podcast 084

A set of groovy, hardgroove, and fast trancey techno I played at R-Ūkas #9 event at MIST club in #Vilnius #Lithuania on 15/09/2023.

R-Ūkas #9

We invited artists from the harder fringes of electronic music to the sun-kissed isle of Malta for another lively edition of Glitch Festival.

Chlär | Glitch Festival

"Earlier this year I was playing at a friend's birthday party in Croatia (hi Allan). He is a connoisseur of electronic music so the people he invited to play were pretty diverse, music style-wise. It's really rare for me to be blown away by someone's set but after me a guy called Odd from Kuala Lumpur started playing and he blew me away to pieces. Not only did he play some of the best techno I heard all year (I didn't recognize a single track) but he did it in a way that I realized I was sorely missing: stable, hypnotic, groovy (actually groovy, not just a big kick and then some afterthoughts behind it), always advancing but also always persuasive in its message.
I hope I channeled a bit of what he did in this set. It's very hard for someone who grew up listening to too much IDM/Braindance to be as patient and consistent as is needed for this type of sets, but I think I managed to meet this very fond memory of a summer morning and my wanderlust for the entire spectrum of emotions and energies somewhere halfway.

Anyways, Odd and Allan - this one is for you."

What an honour it was to make my debut at this legendary club, Tresor for it's first Klubnacht of 2024!

An intense 3h journey with the room filled with pure energy.
Hope you will enjoy the ride !

Altinbas at Tresor Berlin 06-01-2024

Identitetas. Klubui, kaip bendraminčius jungiančiam socialiniam reiškiniui, tai labai svarbu, nes be tapatybės nėra į ką remtis. Niekas geriau neformuoja klubo įvaizdžio, nei jo paties garsas, todėl tęsiame miksų serija, kurios tikslas – neleisti užmiršti mūsų skambesio.

IP:VIII – nėra senas vardas DJ scenoje, bet jau neatsiejamas ir nuo „Haxan“, ir nuo sostinės „Elastica“ vakarėlių plakatų. Ne veltui uždarymų karaliumi bei daugiausiai muzikos perkančiu tituluojamas: garsėjanti Vilniaus techno pažiba ir valanda jo atradimų mums.

Haxan Insiders #004: IP:VIII

A promoter of underground culture, a DJ and a respected producer - Serbian-born Commissar Lag’s established name stands synonymous with techno.

While known for his forward-thinking techno productions, Commissar Lag also offers a unique DJ style which employs new and old alike, not shying away from any flavor and any tool to build up the dance-floor to a sweat-inducing frenzy. “All emotions in music are valid” is a phrase he commonly reaches for and this mantra is felt across all of his creative outlets. As a result, Commissar’s music offers a timeless quality appealing to any lover of the true techno sound, and beyond.

Growing up in the turbulent Balkans, Lag has built up a resilience and commitment to his path, ignoring passing trends and staying truthful to his vivid, distinct style. His undeniable quality and hard work quickly made him into Serbia's techno ambassador, allowing him to spread the message which someone who lived through war and discord can best understand - a message of inclusiveness and unity.

Commissar Lag is set to stay on his current path as his mission, his initial vision, is yet to flicker. His ruthless determination is awe-inspiring, and is, along with his musical prowess, the main reason for his popularity. Lag is definitely someone to keep an eye on, but more importantly - someone to listen to.
