MIXED BY Synkro

After Phaeleh's legendary <a href="http://bit.ly/1hKWqmy"> i-DJ mix</a> there was no way we could pass up an opportunity to have him back. This time he takes on the Slumber Session and packs in a tonne of unreleased exclusive material to deliver this beautiful, ethereal soundtrack to help you journey through your dreams. Take time, kick back, zone out and drift off. This one is special.

Read this personal message from the man himself:
"This Slumber Session mix gave me a great opportunity to make a playlist of something I would want to listen to when unwinding, or to just fall asleep to. I wanted it to be able to exist in the background, without focus, whilst at the same time having elements of detail and beauty scattered amongst the layers of sound unravelling as the mix progresses.

In some ways you can think of it as a soundtrack to a dream. There are moments of calm flowing smoothly into more abstract sections. Textures build to go from sparse emotive landscapes to darker, brooding moments of tension. I wanted it to be dynamic, taking in a variety of styles and influences, whilst giving the listener a coherent experience and painting some interesting images in their minds.

It also gave me the chance to put in a lot of unreleased tracks of mine. I make a wide variety of styles outside of my normal output, so it was great to have an outlet for some of that material. There are also a lot of field recordings I've made over the last few years throughout the mix, including some from my travels. The opening section of music features the sounds of walks in Sydney and San Francisco, which at the time was just some subconscious grabbing of sound recordings without any kind of artistic purpose - it just sounded cool at the time. It seemed fitting when I realised where the sounds were from, as the mix would have been the perfect playlist for a lot of my sleep deprived travels.

I ended up getting so involved putting together this mix that there's a lot of live tweaks of outboard reverb and delay units layered on certain tracks to try and get the sense of space I wanted to achieve and give the mix some breathing space. I find that ambient music can be incredibly beautiful and achieve the range of emotions other music can. I hope that you enjoy the musical selection and can immerse yourself in it, even with the emphasis away from the hooks and rhythms of traditional electronic dance music."

Slumber Session: Synkro

The second episode of Ampere Archives comes from the skilled hands of Joe "Synkro" Mcbride, the ginger glass wearing producer from Manchester. Since he found a new home at Apollo, sub-label of the iconic Belgian R&S Records, it was no surprise to find him on the bill of the R&S 'In Order To Dance' Weekender in December last year. Through atmospheric melodies and heady bass lines he created an easy but moody listening, illustrating influences from a wide spectrum of bass culture and electronica by decorating his story with inventive and touching soundscapes.  The overwhelming layers of lugubrious synths flowing over edgy beats and miniature voices like waves, leave you behind a little woozy. Perfect for some afternoon relaxing or to wind down an endless afterparty.

Recorded live during the R&S Records 'In Order To Dance' Weekender on 12.12.2015.

Ampere Archives 002 - Synkro

Solid Steel in association with Serato (6th May) Phaeleh is our guest in Hour 1 this week, following the release of his EP 'All that remains' last month. The Bristol based producer has been releasing music since 2008, but pretty silent for the last couple of years working on his next album. His mix features music from Arkist, John Tejada, Afriqua, Roska, DMX Krew, DieMantle and Boards of Canada and you can catch him playing this weekend when he curates a room at Fabric on May 6th involving the likes of Om Unit, D-Bridge and Djrum, whilst The Bug, Pinch and Loefah take care of the room next door. He told us;
"This is the DJ set I'd play for myself, at my own house party, without my name on a flyer. I've chosen tracks from various eras and genres so you can get a insight of what I'm into. Please listen with a Gin & Tonic or Mojito."

Solid Steel Radio Show 6/5/2016 Hour 1 - Phaeleh

There is beauty amidst the spaces in between. Phaeleh has been releasing music since 2008 and throughout this time has produced three albums. On the eve of his latest release it seems somewhat fitting to reflect on his contributions to electronic music. The discourse of his music has seen him veer right and left between uk bass culture and somewhat cinematic soundscapes. Never standing still Phaeleh has taken influence from a range of genres and continues to explore the realm of possibilities within sound. Titled "Illusion Of The Tale" he speaks bluntly about the roots and origins of the release. 

“The album title is my polite way of saying we live in a world of bullshit and bullshitters. Essentially I feel we all live in a constant lie, whether it be our Facebook profile pictures, the need to present our lives as perfect, with good looking partners, intelligent children, the perfect job etc."

Ahead of the release of the record on the 14th of October we asked him to contribute to our Monday mix series as he delves deep through the depths of his record collection.
