Greetings, Earthlings.
For September, we take a departure away from June+August's emo/sensitive side of house music and move towards a spacier, darker, and more driving sound. It's a sound that's been making its way into my gigs a bit more these last couple months, so it's nice to pull them into a mix.

Here's a list of my upcoming gigs these next couple months, hopefully you can catch on:
Sept 28 | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/164806170378864/">The Cityfox Experience: Space Knights </a> | The Well, Brooklyn

Oct 8 | Tutu Tuesday | Harlot, San Francisco

Oct 25 | Thugfucker + Atish | Monarch, San Francisco

Nov 9 | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/211151995713637/">Desert Hearts 1 Year Anniversary</a> | La Jolla Indian Res. Campground, near San Diego

We're honouring another legend on board this month. It's the artist that made 'A Thousand Nights', 'Nightcolors' and so many other recognisable anthems and whether it's Time Warp or Studio 80, he'll rock the hell out of it. This month's SEKOIA Podcast is by Gregor Tresher. 

His sets often differ from his productions, that tend to be a bit more on the deeper side. Playing mostly prime time spots at his gigs, that doesn't really come as a surprise. But for this podcast, we asked Gregor to take a step back and go deep. You can read more about this difference between producing and playing in the interview printed in DJ Mag, released today. Online version will follow soon!

Some words from Gregor:

"Here's my mix for the SEKOIA podcast series including some of my current favorite tracks and also a couple of gems that you might not have heard for some time. I tried to create a little rise and fall as I would do in a club-set, but kept it on a more deep and moody level this time - to make it enjoyable for a nighttime car-ride or listening on headphones. The mix ends with what I think is one of the most amazing ambient tracks of all times. Hope you enjoy listening to this set as much as I enjoyed recording it. All the best & see you soon, Gregor."

Our podcast series is becoming a beautiful list of artists with all equally impressive podcasts. This one fits in perfectly, right near the top. - FJ.

Jonas Rathsman - Deep House Amsterdam Mixtape #133

A happy belated Valentine's Day to all the lovers out there. To commemorate the occasion, my latest mix touches upon the combination of suits. Not some simple storybook version of love, but the complex tension and balance that go into the real thing. Like hearts and spades. Delicate but strong. Submissive but powerful. Vulnerable but aggressive. Comfortable but yearning. Open but mysterious.

I think this music is pretty, though not just in a light and fluffy way. More to do with a sense of romance - I hope you can hear it!

Thyladomid is no stranger to followers of Diynamic. He has stepped up into the international limelight back in 2010, when his single “The Voice” held the pole position on Beatport’s Deep House charts for six consecutive weeks and eventually got him a “Beatport Music Award” in the category “Top Deep House Track of the Year” (based on Beatport sales). Since then Thyladomid has been an inherent part of Diynamic, with regular appearances on international label showcases, its own festivals as well as with multiple successful releases on the label and its sub-imprint 2DIY4, including highly-acclaimed collaborations with Adriatique.

On Thyladomid’s next adventure, which is his debut album ‘Interstellar Destiny’, he takes a different approach with his music: It does not feature the usual club sound you would expect from him. Instead, it mirrors his thoughtful and fragile nature in his songs, making this album as personal as one can be.
“Many things inspired me,” says the man himself on the album, “but first and foremost it was movie scores. So when I was working on a track, I was actually imagining a movie scene that I would be doing the score for. The title ‘Interstellar Destiny’ means something in the way of ‘universal meaning’ or ‘human purpose’. Every track describes a process or a situation of our lives here on planet earth, a beautiful or not so beautiful facet of our existence. The album is very melancholic and describes my musical nature in regard to my perception of my surroundings. I hope I can illustrate that to the listeners.”

He sure can, because the album is absorbing right from the off, thanks to the sombre bass and serene strings of opener ‘Intergalactic Spring.’ From there, the moodiness continues to build through ‘Generation Y’ with its whispered and intimate vocals and slo-mo beats. The colourful and charming ‘Brotherhood’ then gets a little more sun kissed and laid back, ‘Inner Space’ shows how well Thyladomid does deep house and elsewhere cuts like ‘Daddy Rainbow’  marry rich rounded bass with sensitive synths and vulnerable chords.

A special mention goes to two tracks, which instantly stick: On one note the heartfelt ‘Mavericks’. Its sultry singing and the catchy melody definitely sweep listeners away. On the other it’s the feel good anthem ‘The Real Thing‘, which many will remember as one of last year’s Ibiza favourites. It was released as an album teaser EP last summer, including remixes by Stimming and Adriatique, and is still as passionate as it was back then.

Featuring lots of magical vocals and laidback beats, lush chords and crystal sealer production, this album is a real step up for Thyladomid. It is a remarkable example of outstanding forward-thinking electronic (dance) music, something that will catch attention on the dancefloor, but especially a great (loud) home listening piece of music. The album proves Thyladomid’s huge talent and impressively demonstrates that he is much more than just a regular producer of club tracks.

EG.545 Thyladomid (ADE Special)

Rrose—named after Marcel Duchamp's character, Rrose Selavey—is a dark and mysterious figure who makes dark and mysterious music. It comes mainly on his own Eaux label after early forays on the influential Sandwell District, and it combines mean and heavy overtones with more lithe and agile synths work. Most recently this American producer and live act served up an absorbing album of droning soundscapes on Seattle’s Further Records, whilst 2015’s EP output has seen him master supple techno forms drenched in reverb and soot black atmospheres.   This deep, thick and industrially influenced sound carries over in to his live set, and that is exactly what we are serving up for you on our next podcast. 

This one hour session is an absorbing one that sucks you deep down a blackened rabbit hole. It is one that recreates his show at this year's Dekmantel Festival and across the course of an hour invites your mind to get lost in elongated synth lines that slowly drift about like planets in orbit. Occasional percussive patterns and crunchy textures get loosely scattered across the airwaves and along the way the brooding clouds break to let in some blissful rays of optimism. There are few who have a sound as focussed and singular as this, as this podcast proves. 

Dekmantel Podcast 039 - Rrose

Thanks a lot for the lovely vibe and the great sound!

It was a very special experience and the moment when the people grabbed their bikes and rode beside the bus into the Playa, a lot of fun!

This year my Playa time was shorter than the last years 
but at least I am very happy that I didn’t miss it!

Many warm hugz,

Motek Podcast 029 - Milo Hafliger

Experiencing the Playa at night is the quintessential Burning Man experience. The untamed energy, the chaos, the sensory overload, the cacophony of sounds coming at you from all angles, all mixed with the extreme weather conditions the desert throws at you - it is pure pandemonium in the best sense of the word. It made me feel small and insignificant - in a good way. As my ego faded I more and more felt at one with my surroundings, ready to love and contribute.  As I started playing the bus pulled out of the camp. A surreal scene that reminded me of the Pied Piper unfolded - hordes of burners following the iconic heart into the open desert. But where I had anticipated the Robot Heart set to be a big "me" - moment, it felt quite like the opposite - just adding my small voice to this large and beautiful orchestra that is Burning Man. And that is how pretty much my entire first Burning Man experience went. And it's exactly this what makes it the best place in the world.

All Around Mixtape vol.5 by Robbie Akbal

As the summer faded, a fog set in that made it difficult to see. Hoj meandered and he drifted, trying to find the way. After roaming awhile, he saw something shiny on another road, and he went to explore. Eventually he found his way back - and when he did the fog had lifted and the path was clear. Getting sidetracked was exactly what he needed to find his way.

Claptone's biography describes him thus :"In a now long forgotten world, many generations ago, a bird like shape emerged from wooded dark- ness, floating and fluttering, drifting and dreaming. Backlit by a bright glow of iridescent light, the undecipherable form wore a dazzling golden mask. Its long beak swooped down like an inverted horn and since then, people have referred to the mythical being simply as Claptone."

Whether or not that is a true account remains open to debate (although we'd put nothing past the avian-mask wearing maestro) but what we can confirm is that the enigma that is Claptone has delivered an awesome and exclusive free mix for you to download. Grab it while its hot...

Over two decades in dance music have made Hoj more than capable of living up to his reputation as a sonic storyteller. His cinematic sets explore the deep house landscape with a fervor that resonates through dance floors across the globe.

Close colleagues like Lee Burridge simply refer to his style as “Hoj house” rather than attempting to pin down its eclectic nuances. Although a longer road, staying the course of his artistic vision has paid off. In addition to a residency and landmark releases on Burridge’s All Day I Dream imprint, he now provides a platform for like-minded producers by way of their joint venture, Tale and Tone.

An extensive background in the visual arts set Hoj (pronounced with a long Ō) on a path less traveled by the average DJ/producer. Born in Iran and raised in the Bay Area of the U.S., he grew up exposed to film and music alike. Prior to DJing full time his background was in film, design and new media. He was the brainchild behind All Day I Dream’s brand identity, coming up with the single cloud design.

Hoj also discovered electronic music early in life. He attended his first rave in San Francisco in the early 90s, and he experienced the inauguration of legendary warehouse venue Homebase. After DJing for a few years, he made his San Francisco debut at Qoöl Happy Hour, an event series that took place at 111 Minna Gallery.

Soon afterwards he got involved with outfits like Opel Productions and Spundae, which afforded him audiences at the city’s more prominent nightclubs. He went on to help build the inaugural Opulent Temple sound camp for the 2003 edition of Burning Man. He has performed annually at the transformative gathering ever since.

Upon moving to New York City in 2008, however, Hoj outgrew the category of local DJ. Each passing year after that point brought bigger milestones and more momentum.

After his set on the Robot Heart art car during the 2010 edition of Burning Man, he was booked at the world-famous Berlin nightclub Berghain’s Panorama Bar. 2011 saw Lee Burridge launch All Day I Dream to serve the dual purpose of a record label and event brand, and he enlisted Hoj as a resident DJ of the latter. Since then Hoj has brought dance floors to life across the globe. Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York City account for much of his fan base, but his following has also grown significantly in locations like Canada, Mexico, Australia, South Africa, Dubai, Romania and London.

2017 marked two especially groundbreaking turning points for Hoj: His long-awaited debut as a producer and the unveiling of he and Burridge’s new record label, Tale and Tone. The label features music the founding DJs play at night, unique tunes with both story and groove. Around the same time, his own Telefade EP, released on All Day I Dream. The three-track EP included  “Leap Day” as well as a remix of the title track by Bedouin. Hoj followed up Telefade with his own Tale and Tone release in 2018. Titled “Ramblefog,” it appeared on the imprint’s Prologue compilation,.

Two decades of experience behind the decks have equipped Hoj to captivate any crowd. The twists and turns of each sonic journey almost surprise him as much as those he entertains, resulting in moments that make up unforgettable memories. Given his track record, it’s surely no accident that his audience has only grown over the years.

As far as his own story is concerned, a promising future lies out on the horizon for Hoj. Deep house enthusiasts far and wide are excited to see how his tale will unfold.
