Lobster Cracker

I stumbled upon a little Tyler the Creator interview, https://youtu.be/H6CjuMazfsQ decided to sample some of it together with some noises from Eminem's new song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vwa0HenQMi4.
Dive into this 8-minute-long progression with your eyes closed with me will ya?

Music will tell you what it needs

Big shoutout to one of the most talented Leuven musicians Broco. Samples taken from his absolute banger 'Nooit gebroken'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp84vLqWB20

Soms Gebroken

If you don't know what BBK means, JME will tell you. And violate your lip.

SomeSkin on Skin inspirations on this one!

Why is there something rather than nothing?

My main goal was to finish a project again. It had been a while since I had taken the time to really, start-to-finish, create something from a blank slate to a full-fledged song. I was not striving for perfection, for something genre-defining, style-bending, crazy bonkers novel-type beat. Just learning Ableton and showing my work in progress like a well-mannered math student. 

Big shoutout to Bound to Divide for his in-depth tutorial on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt9SFEFe8ho&ab_channel=BoundtoDivide. This song is clearly (REALLY CLEARLY) based on his first of three songs. I learned a lot through the process, I feel like I need to get the basics down through things like this before the creativity can really start flowing and I can make these projects sound more like my own.

Onkruid - You gotta start somewhere

Verdelgen. Letting the music tell its story.

Tracks in their full length, a minimal selection as to not overburden the stage, slow and atmospheric transitions that are not perfect, minimal use of effects or fancy DJ techniques (skill issue). The songs are the centerpiece, I’m just stitching them together. I’m going to challenge myself to mix some oil and water in these ones. Could be a nice and calm coffee-induced session or some high-energy clubbing shit. It’s my show, I do what I want. Might even include some of my own sauce in there. Let him cook. Thanks for dining with us.

Tracklist:
Lloyd Vaan - Present
Jamie xx - The Rest is Noise
Ben Lukas Boysen - Quasar (keep an eye out for this producer, mind-blowing stuff)
Dirty Doering - I Would
Möwe - The Walk

This one turned into a Jeigo tribute mix almost (and a showcase of me messing up some BPM slider settings and having a rough dissonant transition into the ending track, but disregard that). Jack Carr Miles, a producer from the UK, I discovered through setting up a track radio on Spotify for the Dutch producer nthng’s ‘and on’.  His oeuvre has been inspiring me a lot lately and accompanying me on many bike rides to and from work. A perfect mix of those UK drums with a nice black coffee to start off my Saturday morning, and to hopefully cheer up any part of the day where you are listening to this mix. Enjoy! 

PS: If my DJ career ever gets launched, I think Final Credits might be my main ending track for sets. It doesn’t pack the same punch as Hector Oaks’ La Linea de la Vida closings, but the goodbye at the end is blissful. 

Tracklist:
James Shinra - Moonlit
Jeigo - An Ode To Midnight
Jeigo - By My Side
Jeigo - Fluerella
Jeigo - Pearl Leaf
Wisp - 1stop
Midland - Final Credits

A Saturday morning that is all over the place. Partly hungover, partly tired, partly still in shambles after a seminar on the existential themes of choice, responsibility, and freedom. Part chill Honey electronics, part Bloodclot nasty bassface stinkers. Yes I am using my playlist names to try and define the type of sound I throw at you, deal with it. This mix is far from perfect, but I need to throw shit online, experience, explore, conquer. 003 are rookie numbers, we have to get those up in this league. Not my best work in this one, but I’m learning to be a bit more daring in my track selection at least. Lefto vibes here I come. 

PS: The transition from Bad Kingdom to Threshed could work so well, but I need to cook a bit better. Give me some time and space and positive energy please. 

Tracklist:
Apmere - RONA.
Solitude - Enfant Sauvage
Bad Kingdom - Moderat
Threshed - Aleksandir
Belonging - LUXE
Akura - Jon Gurd, Reset Robot
Smoke - Heady One, Fred Again, Jamie xx
Cellular - Drone
The Swamp - Drone
Devil’s Hands - Drone

Onkruid - Verdelgen 003

Some of that nice experimental stuff. Using non-4 to the floor rhythms, double synth action, and introducing more noise for depth and complexity. 

Not perfect, but I'm quite proud.
