would love an ID for this, amazing sound :)

Our mix series 'Look at the State of It' hopes to examine the state of contemporary music, with a focus on 'functional' music. Its curation is a broad selection of well-informed musicians and DJs, who are asked what they think about the state of music, and where it stands in contemporary art and culture. The mixtapes are accompanied by a piece of writing, that should help the listener to understand where these perspectives come from.

Look at the State of It:

music is resistance
music is therapy

I listen and I feel
I feel and I understand
I understand, maybe stumble
then realize that what I heard is something I haven’t heard before.
and it makes me question:
if I never experienced this so far
could this be another truth ?
could this be another fantasy ?
Is there an answer to my question of longing ?

this set shows a lot of my favorite artists and spotlights juke and
jungle and everything hybrid in between and around as the styles that
influences me most: they can be soothing, stressful, weird, funny,
groovy. challenging our listening and dancing behavior and I can’t
express my gratitude for these genres & their artists.

Eyop! 

Delay Grounds is next up for the pod! 
An immensely talented artist, his production & ideas are unique as much as they are banging. 
He's served up an hour of of club tackle, sticking on the cusp of the UK techno & bass spectrum, this got us in the mood for everything reopening. 

What have you been doing recently? 

Pat: Well.. My most recent EP Upcycling has just come out so that was really nice, it's had a really great response so I'm really happy about that. Life has been on hold which has pushed back release dates for my music which has been annoying, the last year has really thrown me out as well so I am just feeling very grateful to have things like this to look forward to. Off the back of this release I am currently putting a live show together using my modular and a couple of other bits, one or two things in the pipeline as well for this so eyes peeled! It's gonna be a dream come true playing in front of a crowd of mentally mashed up people who just wanna hear massive kick drums. I have a release coming out very soon on Lapsus Records too so watch out for that one! 


The process behind your recent EP Upcycling sounds really interesting! Can you let us know a bit more about it? 

It is a collaborative work. Myself and visual artist/sculpture Liz Naden worked together on it, the music and the visuals are made from the same materials and using the same concept so it wasn't a matter of making music to visuals or vice versa; they are inherently linked and related to one another in the purest way. The idea behind the record is upcycling waste materials into hyper realistic objects in our chosen medium. Club tracks and sculpture. We spent a few months collecting and searching for bits and bobs in skips/bins/charity shops to stockpile at our shared studio space. Then went to work recording the materials and coming up with ideas. It seemed to work really well. Taking a more methodical approach when working on a project has been a revelation for me, planning something out and then working my way through each stage of the process helps me to be more productive. I took the same approach to latest productions and it worked really well again, don't think i'll ever just sit and randomly try and make tracks ever again it's too much of a stab in the dark haha.

My next EP coming out on Lapsus followed a similar methodology, I wanted to write a dance record that was produced like some of my favourite bands so I booked some time at a studio and recorded a load of live drums. Did a load of cool things in the studio too like reamping some of the drum sounds through a guitar amp which was very fun. The other limitation I set myself for this record was that I had to start each idea using the same 2 or 3 sounds, hence the record's title "Genus". The tracks are all genetically related to each other through a common ancestor.  

Where & how did you record the mix and was there an idea behind it? 

Was just recorded at home on my trusty Pioneer XDJ-RX's. Not sure if I had an idea for it, I think in reality I'm not really that good a DJ haha (exhibit A see mix above) but it's all practice you know? I've been working on my timings for blends and trying to get a bit tighter. I am actually really happy with this mix, I think it sounds confident and flows nicely or maybe not I dunno slap it on and you can be the judge.  

What ya been digging n listening to recently?

I recently have been getting well into this band called Squid. It like the band I've been looking for for a long time. There's loads of shouty guitar bands about but it's a struggle to find bands that are using electronics at all let alone in a kind of interesting way. So yeah loads to listen to in there for me. Big Fan.

Continued on our FB post! (website soon ha)

AM Podcast #48 - Delay Grounds

"Here's me getting overly excited about LIFE becoming functional again. I think this sentiment can shine through the void that many of us have. I've also consumed way too much science fiction over lockdown so maybe the most apt destination for this mix is the one we wake up to shortly, idk. Either way, some angular music pieced together with the body in mind, plus a little added friction synthesised from the air we don't want to breathe" - Acrobatics

#12 LATSOI: Acrobatics

After an extended hiatus, we're back on the Explorations Mix Series, this time with one we've been waiting to put out for a good while now!

We're v pleased to welcome @louuss to the series and he did NOT come to mess about with this one. Hosting his flawlessly curated monthly radio show If It Moves on Vandelay Radio, he can be found spinning anything from dub techno to juke to bouncy pop edits.

He brings that same energy to this mix, going in hard but playing with the energy levels and contrasting dark and light moods. It's a phenomenal mix - hope you enjoy as much as we do!

"In this mix I explore the modulation, segmenting, processing and, abstraction of voice as a unifying element. I like to imagine the meaning and message imparted by them vs. derived by me, thru the semantics of selection and omission, vs. the way it makes me feel. Even ‘meaningless’ phonemes and non-lexical vocalisations become imbued with signification — when contextualised in2 rhythm, texture, grain, and other sonic elements that resonate with heightened aural, tactile & optic experience" – @sequentia666

#13 LATSOI: Sequentia

Ever since it was first created, underground collective Positive Education, having since evolved into a yearly festival, has become the electronic emblem of the French city of Saint-Étienne. Its programming reflects the new alternative electro scene, cutting-edge and innovative, straying away from its dance music heritage.

Potato knishes
Potato knishes
I love potato knishes
This machine creates potato knishes
This is where I make potato knishes
The magic and the mystery of potato knishes
Little black squash balls
This machine creates little black squash balls
It turns potato pancakes into little black squash balls
This is where I make centipedes
I sure love to make centipedes
I turn little black worms into centipedes
I turn little black worms into centipedes
