SV3 (POWER GOT CUT OFF)

Ashland Mines, AKA Total Freedom, AKA Big Gay Idiot DJ, AKA Bobby Beethoven, is one of the best and most influential DJs of the 21st century. Starting out at pioneering parties like Mustache Mondays and Wildness (which he cofounded with Wu Tsang)—and a regular at GHE20G0TH1K—Mines helped to define the style that would become known, however cringe-inducingly, as experimental club or deconstructed club, directly inspiring fellow visionaries like Arca. 

Like some of the best DJs before him, Mines uses the CDJs as an instrument, but that doesn't mean just fancy tricks and looping. Instead, he artfully throws together clashing sounds—effects, samples, monologues, pop and R&B acapellas, and beats that run the gamut from dancehall to kuduro to breaks and techno. He's not afraid of the grotesquerie of human life and movement (just check out the monologue at the beginning of this mix), and he likes to push buttons. Once he put on a party where dancing wasn't allowed. Some of his sets are intentionally anxiety-inducing, evoking horror movies and modern classical composers like Penderecki, while others are bouncy and ebullient, weaving between genres and tempos like an old-school platformer. The best are both.

On Mines's RA Podcast—a milestone 900th in the series—he shows off this inimitable style, sharpened and reinforced over a decade-and-a-half of playing some of the world's best parties, fashion shows, you name it. He's the kind of DJ who creates his own music as he goes along. He makes you hear old tracks—especially pop music and R&B—in a whole new way. Titled "Cursed Piercing," this is a near-hour of controlled chaos that'll confound you at one moment and deeply move you the next.

Our first Lettonne show is graced by none other than Sausha, the NYC-based/Colombia-born artist and DJ. She combines her glowing Latin roots with a charged-up, layered techno sound in this lightning-rod debut mix.

Sausha – Center Booth ◎ S1E01

A few weeks ago Lil Silva delighted eager fans with some new music and treated us to some club ready material in the form of the weighty 606. Last week, the Bedford based beatmaker let off the mighty cut New Squeeze and now, i-D can exclusively share the huge lead single from his new EP, forthcoming on Good Years Recordings, Drumatic. Laced with rolling Amen breaks and a serious bassline, Drumatic is a cut that lashes through the dance floor. Get ready.

Premiere: Lil Silva - Drumatic

Athens-based musician and vocalist Evita Manji (@evitamanji) connects the dots between human experience, climate change, quantum physics, and death in an attempt to dig deeper into the primordial truth of existence. Through their carefully constructed practice of synthesis and sound design, led by choir-inspired vocals, they fabricate musical worlds consisting of ever-expanding sonic organisms and shapeless, solid non-materials.

In 2021, Evita launched their platform myxoxym, releasing the singles "OIL/TOO MUCH" and "EYES/NOT ENOUGH", as well as curating the first edition of the fundraising compilation series PLASMODIUM I, which aimed to raise environmental awareness and provide support for relief efforts assisting wildlife affected by forest fires in Greece.

Since their debut performance at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC) alongside Eartheater and Soho Rezanejad (Athens, September 2021), Evita has performed in cities across Europe, including London, Prague, Krakow, and Zurich, as well as at festivals such as Unsound, Borderline, Rhizom, and Lunchmeat—where they shared the stage with Amnesia Scanner at the Convent of St. Agnes. They have collaborated with numerous artists across various media and exhibited sound pieces at galleries such as Kunsthalle Basel (in collaboration with Young Boy Dancing Group) and Saigon Athens.

Recently, Evita has performed at a wide range of festivals, including Mutek (MX), Elektra BIAN (CA), Draaimolen (NL), Mucho Flow (PT), and Sonic Territories (AT), among others. In the coming months, Evita is set to release the Spandrel? vinyl, which will include a new bonus track. Their focus is now on developing a new album, set for release at the beginning of next year, alongside an elaborate live show intended for international touring. In the meantime, they are collaborating with the research duo Dmstfctn.
