Side B2 of the Crinan "SICKAGO" 2xC90 (iDEAL256 2024).

Börft enigma Crinan lays down 3 hours of screwed & deadly warehouse mixes recorded straight to tape between 1994 - 1996 and now issued for the first time, arcing from House and Acid to Techno and back, mixed fast and loose to fully impact bodies in motion. Split into 4 parts over 3 hours, Crinan characterises the sort of dancing gear that got Sweden’s underground scene moving in the mid ‘90s, during the formative stages of a label that would eventually find its own cult status in the years that followed. It’s a strong point of reference for Joachim Nordwall too, who has long been affiliated with the Börft label which issued Crinan’s pair of highly collectable Chi-skooled 12”s in 1998, and also exactly the sort of gear that was fuelling ‘floors from Manchester and Berlin back in the day.  On side A we hear him whip it tough and freaky with Dance Mania percolators and butterfly dancers, before side B loosens up and gets wilder with psychedelic acid and latinate, carnivalesque bangers. Side C sounds like exactly the sort of steely wallbuck tackle and rolling techno that would fuel the Brum lot (Regis & Surgeon et al) whilst side D chains up a fruitier carousel of peak time synths and strings built to drive his fellow Swedes to a frenzy.  Exceptional, screwed party steez from start to finish. - Boomkat.

Carlos Souffront 6 Hour Set

It was my first Draaimolen and no one knew it which was great. 
It was also my first encounter with Addit Audio and their sound system installed for the first time in its full glory. I can't recall being brought to tears during one soundcheck.
So there were no news, no algorithms, no expectations to be disappointed. The pit was not announced. It felt like a curious manifestation of something paranormal.
Wonderful sound system, records and sweetest weather.  
Those who found us in the small pit in the middle of the forest most likely didn't know what was going on. 
For the most part of the first 5 hours I figured out that it would be great to play for and with the sound guy, playing right and wrong records and figuring out which one sound good. Research and development mission for Addit Audio.
After 5 hours ISAbella joined for a brief back to back session. Everything can happen in the realm of paranormal. Luckily she stayed and we played together for the next 3 hours until the last song, the one for the deceased. Probably as close as it gets to transcendence. 

Thank you all. You know who you are.

For this mix I really wanted to lean into an exploration of some tracks that embody a distorted, acidic and hypnotizing energy. With tracks spanning decades regional styles, this mesmerizing mix celebrates the alternative universes we can traverse in the vehicle of freaky and otherworldly production.

The first time we'd ever heard of Carlos Souffront was in 2006, when Derek Plaslaiko was encouraging us to book him for our first 3/03 acid party (alongside Mark Verbos).  Derek would not shut up about a party in Detroit where Carlos just played Aphex Twin (and his many aliases) vinyl all night long and demolished the place.  So it only followed that we should invite him to play an all acid set on 3/03.  Carlos of course was phenomenal that night and has been a regular guest at The Bunker ever since.  Earlier this year, when Aphex Twin began uploading a seemingly endless stream of unreleased tracks to Soundcloud, it was Derek once again who called us and said: you HAVE to ask Carlos do a mix of this stuff for The Bunker Podcast.  Carlos obliged and did this mix for us live in one take (after a surprise practice session on RBMA radio).  Enjoy!
