Wrapping up the year in style, we’re happy to share the 2nd pieces podcast: a recording of Ivan Smagghe at Houghton Festival last August. 
“Everything has been said about Houghton and yet, nothing gets close to what it actually is and means. Playing at Outburst has become something of a regular occurence and I get goosebumps every year. Recordings are not the actual moment but some have been asking for the memento so here it is. Huge thanks to Craig Richards and Bobby. for their continuum of love and support”

Cartulis is really happy to present the next episode of our Live Series podcast.

For number 009, we bring you a very special recording, a 5-hour journey captured live during our 15th Anniversary at Fold. That night, Room 2 was fully taken over by Outransa, the collaborative project of Kensa and Nicky Macha.

The duo delivered an all-night-long set that perfectly captured their identity and the energy of the night. They’ve been shaping their sound and vision over the years, and this recording is a beautiful reflection of that.

So sit back, press play, and relive the vibe of that unforgettable night in Room 2 of Fold, with Outransa.

A star amongst stars, Desyn has long been a prized artist in our community. His combination of atmospherics and groove is always a welcome sight on any lineup, but when he is combined with the rest of his Faciendo cohorts and Novaturient agency mates you know a memorable night is in store. From his time in the more progressive heights of house music, through to the underground forms he latterly has become synonymous for, Desyn has long been known as a barometer of quality that many gauge themselves against.

The London-via-Bilbao DJ marks 15 years of Cartulis with two hours of punchy techno and electro, recorded live at FOLD.

When you think of London label and party Cartulis, dark, muscular electro and tough tech house spring to mind. But the name is more revealing than it first appears: in founder Unai Trotti's native Bilbao dialect, cartulis translates to "nerd." Like any labour of love, the project is driven by a deep, obsessive dedication, centred around sound, mood and community. 

Recorded at Cartulis' 15th anniversary party this autumn, RA.1017 captures why Trotti is such a compelling DJ. Playing only vinyl, he has a deft ability to balance functional club pressure with more leftfield selections, and as he outlines in his Q&A below, it comes from a belief in creative limitation, committing to a finite set of records and trusting instinct over abundance. 

Across the two hours, there are plenty of big, physical tracks built for the dance floor, but also some genuinely strange, confrontational stretches. Around the 15-minute mark, church bells ring out as a gothic female vocal looms overhead—David Lynch, if he needed an electro soundtrack. It's the kind of material you only hear at parties where dancers feel truly at ease, unafraid of the weird. That's Cartulis.
