Recording of Simo Cell's set at Dekmantel Selectors 2021.

Dekmantel Selectors 2021 was a much needed musical reunion. After the preceding period of stillness, the catharsis and pure joy of finally being together again has been overwhelming. In the words of Simo Cell: "It's 7pm, and I have 5 missed calls on my phone: 'We're expecting massive rain tonight and we will have to close your stage earlier, is it okay for you to play earlier?' No time to stress and to think about it. I left my place and started my set straight away. From a few people to a packed dancefloor, I built up slowly from 90bpm to 160bpm (you know the drill). Pretty happy about the progression of the set and the rise in intensity. In the end, the crowd turned into a mosh pit on XXXtentacion and I had the best time behind the decks. It's good when things sometimes happen spontaneously like that. And it didn't rain after all."

Freerotation 2024 : The House Of Crocodiles Part 2 (Live Recording)

A journey through Japan’s quietly radical independent underground of the late ‘90s and early 2000s. Drawn from small-run CDs, obscure compilations, and deeply interconnected label networks, reflecting a moment where ambient, glitch, IDM, and experimental club sounds flourished into new forms — shaped by a generation of artists working across clubs, galleries, and record shops.

CROSSWALKS : 100% CD MIX (Downtempo, Trip Hop)

From Mx. Blaire: I titled this mix “Soft Sounds for Hard Times” or “More Bird Noises in the Ambient Room”. This 1hr collection of music is meant to calm the nervous system with gentle tones, soft synth pads, and copious nature noises. I often turn to ambient music with a softer edge in times of great stress or periods in life that call for deep meditation & reflection. My hope was to soundtrack a mix that allows you to lie down, let the ground hold you, experience a warm blanket of sound shroud your senses, and sink into a state of ease. The last track is especially inspired by Russell E.L. Butler's @russellelbutler set at System Activate. They masterfully guided dancers towards the end of a 23hr journey, and ML Butch’s Working It Out was an especially gorgeous and powerful moment. The entire set and that special track has personally resonated deeply ever since.

A dazzling selectress, an embodiment of skill and craft, and a passionate community builder, Mx. Blaire (she/they) of Boston, MA has a singular ability to enchant dancers with stirring, sometimes otherworldly sounds. Her reverence for 90s house, hard-hitting techno, and mind-bending acid guarantees an active dance floor, kept enthralled by intentionally placed breaks and thrilling interplays of tempos and textures. As a result of their dedicated vinyl practice, Blaire’s sets are also technically engaging, with brilliant phrasing and thoughtful touches of turntablism. She uses these skills to transfer her energy to the dancers and share in sonic conversations, exploring concurrent themes of resistance & joy and existence & play. 

In addition to sharing their gifts through DJ sets, Blaire betters Boston’s underground through their organizing, for the queer dance music collective Boudoir and their new series Sheer Bliss. It’s hard to find parties frequented by a stronger community and filled with as much uninhibited delight. Furthering her commitment to community care, Blaire has created her spirit-comforting Sunday ambient and downtempo party called Sweetie Pie

This is the recording from my set at Parameter 10, Public Works, San Francisco on 17 May 2025. 

The room was comically packed by the time I started (11pm) and the crowd was visibly itching to lift off, but it was so early in the night and the rest of the (stacked) lineup leant so heavily towards UK and bass-heavy music that I decided to leave the dubstep to the professionals, keep it slow and go in the opposite direction: mid 120s, wriggly, psychedelic, gurgly, engrossing, a little weird but also sometimes fun. Maybe on some level I was level preparing myself for Return To The Source in Detroit the following weekend – though ironically I ended up playing much faster and with more broken beats at RTTS than I did here. In any case, I had a blast. Been really enjoying exploring the 120-130 zone recently. Thanks to Nick for having me back, hope you all enjoy the recording.
