Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself?

Hi! My name is Declan (he/him), currently residing in Melbourne/Naarm. I’m trying to learn Hungarian at the moment so I can apply for dual citizenship.


How did you get your DJ name? 

I was at a festival a few years ago and while sitting around the campsite talking shit a few friends started coming up with nicknames for me. They eventually went from Declan > Lecdan > Doiflan > Loifdan. Drop the dan and ‘LOIF’ was born.

Dream line-up?

In no particular order:
Objekt
Livwutang
Roza Terenzi
Dregs (LIVE)
Bambounou
Harold
Aphex Twin (LIVE)
CCL
Polar
DJ Sprinkles
Moopie
DJ Stingray

Second pick for your DJ name?

Probably something with the word ‘Tek’ in it.

What is the theme song of your life?

What is your favorite time of day?

Any advice to upcoming producers/djs?

I think probably the hardest part of getting into either practice is the steep learning curve (especially with producing). What I found most helpful was learning from other people. When I first started playing around with mixing and buying records I was lucky that a large chunk of my mates were all getting into it at the same time. I spent sooooo many days just endlessly mixing with friends and we would constantly share music and ideas and concepts, many of which still inform my style today. I doubt I would’ve stuck with it if it wasn’t for such a passionate and supportive group of people I was lucky to learn with. Similar can be said about producing - I have found collaboration to be endlessly helpful. Every single time I’ve worked with other producers/musicians/mixing engineers etc. I’ve picked up at least one or two techniques or ideas that have been essential in the way I make music going forward. Everyone has a different way of doing things and you can only benefit from getting a wide range of perspectives on how people practice their craft.

Also, don’t be too concerned about buying super fancy top-of-the-line gear - if anything learning on a less than ideal set up can be beneficial going forward. I would probably be a much worse DJ if I hadn’t started mixing records on cheap audio-technica turntables. By the same token, having a limited set up when producing (ie. a shitty laptop, 2 VSTs and a handful of samples) is limiting but allows you to learn the basics without being overwhelmed and will make the transition to more complicated gear and techniques much smoother in the future.

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

There’s a lot that would be good to see but I think more emphasis on safer spaces for dancers, performers and artists are incredibly important. Unfortunately in Naarm unwanted attention, sexual abuse and sometimes violence is a regular occurence in a lot of clubs where promoters and venue owners don’t put the necessary work into making sure this type of behaviour is stamped out. When these safe spaces are created it’s an incredibly powerful feeling knowing you are safe to express yourself and that everyone shares the same level of respect for one another. A new club that just opened in the CBD called Miscellania has done an amazing job in fostering this kind of environment, partly due to the fact that they trained friends to work on the door as security and ensure the right kind of people were coming in. Too bad it was only open for two weeks before we went back into lockdown :’(

Biology functions in this mix in full symbiosis with technology, tribal rhythms with deep and dub depth, and at the same time everything is served here in an exciting dance form. Glassz, thank you sincerely for this exquisite recording. We invite you to interact with this non-obvious, modern and fascinating dance music.

“I’ve come to cherish the sunlight more and more,” says 8228 @mtlhcsvpn2fg, who recently moved from Taiwan to Iceland and recorded this mix there for the Orbitinging series.

She shared how Iceland’s weather is incredibly moody: one moment it is raining, the next, the sun comes out. "When there's no sun, it's freezing cold, so the sunny moments here are much appreciated. The whole city seems to come alive when the sun is out. you can see people enjoying the sunshine everywhere. The scenery becomes especially beautiful during these moments."

She adds, "In this mix, you’ll hear my feelings about Iceland. There was a volcanic eruption recently, and the Northern Lights have just started appearing. The daylight hours are quickly shortening, and every day you can feel the endless night getting closer. Sometimes the cold wind is so strong it feels like you’ll be blown away, and other times the sun is so bright you can’t open your eyes and wonder if you’re in heaven. But no matter what, the air is always cold and clear."

/
Originally from Taiwan and now based in Iceland, 8228 loves exploring different music genres, finding order in chaos, and creating unique sounds by layering broken beats. She finds joy in discovering unconventional sounds and blending them into her music. For her, these unusual sounds aren’t just part of the music but also a way to express herself, always full of surprises and inspiration.

/
inging: "Share a track from the mix with us?"

8228: "'Intimate (Club Mix)' by Erika de Casier is probably the least ambient track in the mix, but I love the romantic vibe it brings."

Recently, 8228 has been busy with life matters such as visa and school issues since her arrival in Iceland. She'll head to Denmark for a party in October, and beyond that, she hopes to focus more actively on creating.

「越來越珍惜有太陽的時間了」8228說道，這是最近剛從台灣搬到冰島的她，在當地為Orbitinging系列錄製的混音作品。

她說冰島的天氣非常的情緒化，上一秒下雨下一秒太陽，沒有太陽的時候冷颼颼，所以在當地格外珍惜有太陽的時光。「有陽光時整個城市都活了起來，可以看到這邊的人會在各種地方曬太陽，風景也特別漂亮。」

她接著說：「在這個混音裡，會聽到我感受到的冰島，這段時間有火山噴發，極光也開始出來了，白天的時間縮短得非常快速，每天都可以感受到永夜越來越靠近了。有時灰冷風大到會被吹走，有時陽光強到睜不開眼睛覺得是否已經上天堂，然而不管什麼時候都可以感受到寒冷但清澈的空氣。」

/
來自台灣現居冰島的8228，喜歡在混亂中尋找秩序、利用零碎的節拍交疊出新的聲音，在明亮與陰暗的光譜中遊走，找尋那些非比尋常、奇怪的聲響，巧妙穿梭融入其中。對她而言，那些不只是音樂的元素，更是表達的載體，總充滿驚喜和靈感。

/
inging：「挑首歌分享一下？」

8228：「來自Erika de Casier的『Intimate (Club Mix) 』，應該是裡面最不像ambient的一首，但我喜歡這首的戀愛感。」

近期剛到冰島的8228不外乎忙著簽證、學校那類生活瑣事，10月會去丹麥參加派對，再來還沒計畫，但會希望積極產出。

Cold Dew 寒露 (Hanlu)

The temperature drops further, and the dew on the ground becomes colder during "Cold Dew" compared to "White Dew". During this time, the crisp autumn air makes it ideal for hiking and exercising. It is important to avoid excessive exposure to the cold, particularly by keeping the feet warm to prevent the cold from entering the body.

比起「白露」氣溫下降較多，地面的露水也更冷，故名「寒露」。此時秋高氣爽，宜登高健行、鍛鍊身體，忌貪涼足寒，避免寒氣由腳竄入全身。

Orbitinging 是 inging 的 ambient 混音系列，融合了音樂流動與季節更替的韻律，將不定期配合24節氣的時程發布，捕捉每個時間點獨特的氛圍與能量。

古代曆法學家，將一回歸年（每年冬至至次年冬至）的時間平分為十二等分，稱為中氣；再將二個中氣等分稱為節氣，此為24節氣的來源。透過地球繞行太陽軌道之旅，「Orbitinging」將提供與地球同步的環繞音景、與自然細微變化相呼應，並建立更深的連結。
