Hello, and welcome back to PFG's Progcast, our weekly trek around Planet Progressive. This week we are back in Brazil, and our second visit finds us searching for new, raw DJ talent that PFG have always been looking for. A group member found him commenting away on a recent live stream and invited him into the group, fast forward a few months, we're extremely proud to give him the stage his talents deserve. Crew, give it up... for M. Beltrame!!

I'm Matheus, a 24-year-old DJ from Curitiba, a southern city between São Paulo (the epicentre of the electronic music scene in Brazil) and Itajaí, where Warung (The Temple) sits. Curitiba has also held great events throughout the year: Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, Sasha & John Digweed, Guy Mantzur, Lee Burridge, Lost Desert and many others have played here.

This love I have now for electronic music started in my teenage days, but actually with Hip-Hop. When in middle school, Hip-Hop was my thing, but because I didn't really understand what was being said, the sonority of the beats combined with the rapper's flow was what really got my attention. A couple of years later, Dubstep came along. It was my initiation into electronic music (I swear it sounded cool at the time).

A few years later, a cheap, commercially-orientated deep house genre began to rise in our scene, that was called "Brazilian bass". I loved it. That powerful, leading bass that I had in Hip-Hop and Trap, missing in Dubstep, was back. I guess that was around 2014. That was also really danceable, which I loved. Expressing myself with the body, listening to cool music and having fun with friends was a big, instant positive for me.

Fast forward a few years to 2017 I finally had contact with high level electronic music. It was during the Warung Day Festival, which happens every year in my hometown. When my ears heard Stephan Bodzin for the first time, I was shocked. After him, the legend Hernan Cattaneo took to the decks and my musical taste was changed forever. Progressive House quickly became my favourite genre.

My DJing experience has only been for fun with my friends in house parties. I learned to play with them (we are all self-taught). Together we form a collective called Showcara Records, you can check out our sounds here

PFG The Progcast - Episode 29 - Olga Misty

Hello, welcome to Wednesday, we're now boarding for this week's trek around the globe in search for the best music around Planet Progressive.

In the week that Phil K. has sadly passed away, it is by twist of fate that our journey takes us back to Australia. This week's DJ is another gem, and PFG are thrilled we've got him on board for you. Well known online and on all the forums and stations he delivers mixes to, ladies and gents... A-Mac!

Aaron “A Mac” McLeod caught the acid house bug in Canberra in a small club called Heaven in the early 90’s and has been hooked ever since. Influenced by Sydney DJ’s Sugar Ray and Phil Smart (local DJ heroes of his) and the impact that two superstars called Sasha and John Digweed (on their Northern Exposure tour in 97) had, was truly a musical life changing experience. After tours of duty in London from the late 90’s and through to the early 00’s, A-Mac returned to Sydney with a truck load of vinyl and a love for all things Progressive House... His sets are a mix of deep progressive grooves, a killer combination of rhythms and synths for the headphones and  baselines and percussion for the dance floor. He’s a global monthly Resident on Saturo Sounds and this set reflects his love for melodic grooves, as it builds to some peak time cuts.

 Headphones on and close your eyes, enjoy the Mix! ...Aaron.

PFG The Progcast - Episode 36 - Aaron McLeod

We are proud to present this beautiful mix, Episode Eight of our monthly Exclusive Series, with AUDIOGLIDER.  

There are points in every artist's musical journey that highlight a sea change or a shift in consciousness. The ﬁrst of those moments for Roberto Sodano was the time he saw Kraftwerk as a spotty teen with dodgy 80’s haircut. Their machine funk sound completely captivated him and his love of all things electronic began. 

Born in Wales to Italian parents, the ’Tafﬁa’ as they were affectionately known, they finally relocated to London after stints all over the UK and Central Europe.

Growing up in a bleak post-industrial city drove Roberto’s need to escape through all manner of musical discovery:  experience borne out in his esoteric musical inﬂuences of 80s and 90s shoegaze, from bands such as Ride, MBV and the Cocteau Twins through to synth pioneers including the aforementioned Kraftwerk and a pre-Dare Human League.
“Music has always been there for me. It’s a friend that doesn’t judge you, a comfort blanket and a kick up the arse when you need it.”

Choosing to make music as much as become a DJ, Roberto released tracks under a range of pseudonyms before ﬁnally settling on his current nom-de-plume ‘Audioglider’. 
His big break came with the licensing of two tracks under the new project name
– Whiskers and Zusammenallein – for Nick Warren’s Global Underground CD, GU30 Paris. 

“These were my ﬁrst ofﬁcial releases as Audioglider, it’s all been downhill from there!” he quips, as he’s now held in high regard by an army of fans and industry insiders alike.

A master of both uptempo club tracks and more winsome downtempo fayre, he cites inﬂuences as wide ranging as Ulrich Schnauss, Massive Attack and School of Seven Bells for his more cerebral back catalogue additions which includes four albums for Tripswitch’s Section Records – two solo - Accidental Beauty and Subaquamarine and two with music maven Xspance - Kollision and Sensory Reception.

Referencing his inﬂuences can be heard as echoes on everything that Roberto does, while at the same time, they glisten in their own unique light. Translucent in sound.

“I don’t stick to a formula so I can explore and develop my musical identity without boundaries.”

One of the most telling sea change events for Roberto was playing his ﬁrst gig at a disused warehouse in East Berlin. “It was my very ﬁrst go on 1210s and I blagged the gig after meeting some Germans at MoS.” he says, “I got a crash course at Zoom Records one afternoon from Billy Nasty and then ﬂew to Berlin next day!” Gigs at Ministry of Sound and beyond bookmarked the 90s and early 00s, a vibrant time for dance music and for the development of progressive house.

Even now Roberto’s ambitions are as strong as ever, signing with the Origin presents artist agency at the tailend of 2019, along with industry stalwarts Anthony Pappa, Luke Brancaccio, Dale Middleton, Ian Dillon, Nadia, Zoyzi, Amber Long, Ian Dillon and others. 

With a flurry of releases and remixes in 2019, 2020 and into next year on labels such as Mirabilis, Pro B Tech, Pangea, Manual, Vector Space, Melodic Beats, Vested, , Emotional Content, VLSI and Tarnished Tracks, his frequent and critically acclaimed collaborations, and new solo album on the horizon, as well as his show Interstellar on Frisky Radio, regularly crashing into their top ten, and his stunning sets at Modern Agenda’s label showcase at ADE 2018 and 19, and back to back sets with Origin agency superstar Nadia, the future is looking bright for Audioglider and his sonic doodling.

Hello and welcome to another exclusive PFG Progcast, come with us on our journey around Planet Prog and see where your imagination takes you...

This week Starship PFG takes you back to the UK, and the home of one the country's most respected club brands, with a twist! In line with their recent Engage series, PFG are excited to bring you this, very different take on our podcasts, we're sure you're going to love this. Ladies & Gents... Marcus James!

I was delighted to be asked to contribute to the PFG Progcast so big thanks to the crew for the offer.

My ‘Lowdown In Lockdown’ mix is a 108-112BPM, downbeat trip through a variety of genres. I wanted to do something a bit different for a number of reasons. Firstly, I am very aware there’s a lot of club music out there right now and, in lockdown, it may not be the best environment in which to appreciate it; Secondly, I spend a good chunk of the month listening to 120-125BPM tracks, both for the Sound Of Renaissance, which I compile and mix, and the label, so it was great to be able to step outside of that. Thirdly, the thing that has inspired me most over the recent months was Dave Seaman’s Engage. As you may be aware, we record those Engage’s ahead of time and then add all the post-production, so in the meantime I get to listen to the audio. I go walking a lot these days and I pretty much had that on repeat for days. It’s a really enjoyable listen and, returning to my earlier point, I thought people may appreciate something more accessible they can have on in the background whilst lockdown part 2 continues, certainly for the UK at least. 

It’s a curated mix in so much as I chose the tracks based on merit, not timeline; it’s not a showcase of unreleased material from top flight producers that no one may hear for months either. Much of these downbeat tracks seem to stand the test of time better anyway. For me, the goal was to get the mix to hang together and, despite the varying ages of the tracks, make it sound cohesive. It took a while to come together, but it was fun to work on; I hope people enjoy it as much as I did creating it, Marcus.
