Glitch Podcast Series

On this week’s Glitch Podcast, we have Herrensauna resident & co-founder MCMLXXXV showcasing his extensive genre expertise and dancefloor prowess with an electrifying selection.

This podcast is an actual live recording from a gig at Tag in Chengdu, China. @thetruemcmlxxxv says, "The selection is very intuitive as I did not know that the set would be recorded. Which I actually prefer as it kept me playing really just what I liked without having to worry too much about whether I played a track already in a mix. Long story short: this set is pretty much me at the moment. Relentless body. I had the most amazing time playing it and I will always look back at this night in awe. Chinese promoters and club owners face really tough times at the moment imposed on them by the government, especially when the LGBTQIA community is targeted by the police. Hope this one carries their message a bit further."

With a highly refined taste across genres, and an ear for the percussive elements of music, @KasperMarott is of a rare kind. His sets seamlessly navigate between different emotional tones, tempos and styles. In this week's podcast, he brings down the tempo slightly, letting the tracks morph into each other to maintain a transcendence and consistent flourishing groove throughout. Reflecting on his approach, he remarks, "For me suspense is a powerful tool, and with this mix I aimed to sustain it while omitting the peak, if that makes sense. I tried to achieve this with a slightly more housey selection"
