Campout Mix Series: CCL

Words by Ceci (@ccl-url): 

"Special thanks to Steevio & Suzybee & all the volunteers, workers & dancers 💙

This is my recording from Friday night Room 2, 12:30-2am, my first time being at the mythical Free Rotation. Playing one of the first sets & seeing the room, decor and the big bad subs of Room 2, years of fantastical lore and reality melded, I wanted to keep it sexy, wonky, trippy— imagining a psychic electric swamp and how one would levitate thru it... to the sky. No bpm trickery this time. Out to the heavenly bodies of the universe! ;)

ani/live Fifty Six: CCL @ Freerotation

The third offering in our mix series is a live recording of Priori and Cousin's dj set at Sustain Release 2024. Recorded on the last morning between 6am and 1pm on what was meant to be an ambient stage, it featured everything a 3 day festival closing set should. Eclectic picks, strange and emotional sounds, dubious transitions and a few feigned endings. Massive thanks to all the dancers, the Sustain staff (Aurora, Ash and everybody else who put their blood, sweat and tears into this), the music makers, the birds, the stars. 

Much love,

P & C

The supremely talented DJ Plead launches us into a mind warping world of percussive pleasures and dexterous genre bending, with his trademark agile club rhythms and pacy low end palpitations on full display in episode 303!

Q. What inspiration did you draw upon when planning this mix, and what type of listening environment could you imagine it being easily enjoyed in? 

A. I actually looked through my rekordbox history from a recent Animalia night I played in Naarm and drew some inspiration from that. When listening back to the mix I can imagine it being played for a semi-casual game of Futsal or something like that. I feel like there are some light-footed tracks in there that would be useful to some nimble futsal players. 

Q. Are there any songs in the mix that are especially close to your heart, and what is it about these cuts that resonate with you so much?

A. Mata by Nidia & Valentina

It's taken off  a truly sublime Album that I draw lots of inspiration from. It's simultaneously organic and loose and club-playable, which is a tough one to get right. It's something I’m constantly trying to achieve but they seem to have done it effortlessly. 

Dotted by Cliques

I actually tried to google to see if I’ve ever put this tune in another guest mix before. I probably have, so I’ll apologise for that now. Cliques has always had a big influence on me since I started producing music. They’ve since stopped producing themselves which is a shame but I always play their old tunes out if I can. RIP Cliques..

Q. One of the things I’ve been fascinated with in your DJ sets (the Sustain-Release set for example) is your mixing of polyrhythms to seamlessly bridge tempos throughout a set. How did you first get inspired to experiment with this style and what are some of otherwise conflicting genres/sounds that have blended nicely?

A. My DJing style is at times an extension of my music production. I think this might be a good example of that. The sustain release transition from 150 to 100 is using a tune that I produced years ago in a 3/4 time signature. I’ve produced a few tunes over the past few years that are able to do that. It just allows me at times to bounce around to different worlds and stops me from feeling stuck in a tempo-range. I haven’t done it so much recently but I’d like to get back into doing it. It can create a really strange feeling for the audience. At Sustain-Release, a lot of the audience were on hallucinogens so it felt appropriate to get trippy in that way. It's harder to pull off in a nightclub environment.

I’m no longer sure what the original inspiration for experimenting with this style was. Playing a lot of tunes that have a polyrhythm in them can often make you feel like you have the option to dance at two different tempos.

MDC.303 DJ Plead

@priori-ties mix begins and ends with a gentle embrace, prowling seductively with dub-driven grooves before retreating into the ether like dusk yielding to dawn. Consistently in motion, but never in haste. Don’t miss the lion’s roar. 

The jewelry released with this mix is inspired by Priori’s fascination with labyrinths. Priori feels like mazes and labyrinths were omnipresent in youth literature and movies but hey rarely encounter them in culture these days.

Day Thief's set from The Ever Afters Campout 2024

Day Thief - The Ever Afters Campout 2024 - Heart Lodge

"In November 2007 Pinch’s debut album Underwater Dancehall was released to widespread acclaim. Four years later in July 2011 Space Shuttle Atlants commenced its final voyage from the Kennedy Space Centre. Unbeknownst to NASA and the crew, somehow a CD copy of Pinch’s landmark Dubstep masterpiece found its way aboard.

While the CD itself survived the journey into space physically unaltered the music contained within morphed and warped in its new zero gravity environment, Underwater Dancehall had become Dancehall in Outer Space. The weighty throb of the original floated away to leave a lean and spacious soundtrack for a new kind weighless wineing.

Whether through alien interference or some other miracle the CD started to play all by itself just as the Shuttle docked with the International Space Station. Beyond their control the crew found their bodies begin to contort into odd shapes as their muscles spasmed, seemingly in time to the beat. What follows is a recording of that moment from the Space Shuttle Atlantis sensors."

Sam is the founder and a resident at Pumping Velvet, a London-based Queer dance party, and regularly plays at queer parties across the UK alongside a US tour and other international gigs including Planeta Manas (Lisbon), Savage (Hanoi), Kockiri (Seoul) and (Re)treat Festival (Vietnam).

Sam grew up in London, his tastes moulded by the city’s diverse dance music scenes: from childhood trips to Notting Hill Carnival, to formative dancefloor experiences at nights like FWD, Trash and Süd Electronic. He brings these influences to his DJing in sets that span a broad gamut of genres, tied together by a love for big drums, pop melodies and sleaze.   

Frustrated by the lack of queer spaces where you could hear both a Svek record and Kylie in the same night, Sam founded Pumping Velvet in 2018, driven by the firm belief that any barriers erected between pop and ‘serious’ dance music are entirely artificial and that there’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure. It’s this same ethos and disregard for boundaries that makes his DJ so thrilling.

Distant Signals 075: Sam PV

Jacob Meehan's set at Lecken was the talk of the Play Pit. The WHOLE Ambient stage curator and Kwia mainstay shared a more intimate side of his collection with us. Dubbed out electronica merge with smooth throwbacks while ethereal jazz gets sprinkled with 80s synths, making us nostalgic for the age of our lost innocence. We swayed and swooned down memory lane, counting our blessings beneath the inverted crosses of the Play Pit sky, only to emerge again in the warm embrace of trusted friends or strangers, all within the breadth of @jacob-meehan's expertly concocted seance. Here you can finally revisit a slice of our upside down heaven recorded at Lecken Unholy on Easter Friday 2025 at Kreuzwerk.

I made this mix as a reflection of what I’m playing out and about lately, with a focus on layering multiple tracks, long blends and carving out tension and release amongst the layers. It’s a mix of old and new, keeping things silky, finding tenderness in harshness, all different styles working in tandem, I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed making it


MARICAS n.84 - LUXE

My set (with crowd noise) from the Grove Saturday Night 1-3am, after Djrum, before Identified Patient.

CCL @ Sustain-Release Year Ten

"It is not easy to find Saphira, and it is even harder to leave. Saphira is caught between a low-lying sun to the west and a glowing moon to the east, Saphira’s longing grows dense and time thickens within its walls. Perhaps this is why Saphira’s radios and televisions stutter with phrases and images so ghostly yet so intimately familiar, why its dusty buildings seem always to crumble so gloriously yet never collapse. It is a city inside of want and outside of time."

"Parisian native NairLess steps up for our fourth vinyl release and our first of 2025, with the stunning Ethereal EP.

Known for his signature blend of high-energy grooves and emotional depth, NairLess delivers a transcendent three-track journey that stays true to his reputation. Ethereal EP is a masterclass in euphoric dancefloor storytelling, building wave after wave of immersive, emotive power.

On remix duties, Frankfurt’s own Maruwa brings a potent, peak-time rework that’s both driving and hypnotic.

The record has already been making waves, gaining early support from the likes of Job Jobse, Saoirse, Octa Octa, Aiden Francis & more. Receiving spins via HÖR Berlin and Rinse FM (France) ahead of release.

As E&X enters its third year with a refreshed visual identity for 2025, Ethereal EP stands as a testament to the label's evolving sound and vision. A surefire highlight in NairLess’ ever growing discography, this is an essential addition to every discerning record bag this summer."
