Inner Circle are proud to present our new project CIRCLECAST. 

CIRCLECAST is a series of recordings from friends, artists, DJs, and performers from our surrounding community, intended to inspire connection and memories for the raves that we were able to host and attend regularly before this year. Our plan is to have a mix series, guest interviews, livestreams, and more.  

For our first instalment to welcome in the 2021 new year, we bring you this slammin' techno journey from Montreal DJ-producer s.talbot (@d_nrgy).

Like our live events, which seek to represent the diversity happening in today's underground dance music, our mix series is separated by the names of the events we would host pre-covid, with different genres and styles represented in each one. This mix falls under RIFT, our more techno / industrial-focused offering. 

We'll be posting mixes once to twice a month, usually with a mini interview (French, English, Bilingual) exploring the creative mind of the featured artist. Big thank you to s.talbot for letting us into his world -- have a look below!

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺(𝘀) 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰?

Birdsong! 

𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝘀 𝗹𝗮 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗲𝗿, 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗯𝘂𝗺𝘀, 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀-𝘁𝘂 ?

J’ai eu la chance de découvrir la techno et l’ambient au cours de raves – ce qui m’a vraiment inculqué que les deux styles, ambient et techno, existent sur 2 faces distinctes d’une même dimension. L’intensité de leurs énergies sont extrêmement rapprochées, et partagent des destinations semblables, pour moi. 

Dans ce sens, je suis extrêmement attiré par la discographie de zoviet-france, groupe proto- ambient des années 80/90. Une musique faite maison, non-linéaire, qui représente l’expérience d’un moment - difficilement descriptible. 

(Shouting at the Ground; Mohnomishe; Vienna 1990) 

𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗻𝗱/𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀?

Most of the dance tracks I play, I have listened to over and over again alone - which often has the effect of transporting my mind to a strobe flashing, time deprived space of uninterrupted dance. And when I get that feeling, it’s usually a good sign that it’s the kind of track I’ll want to share. This feeling usually revolves around perceptions of freedom and connection with the people around me.

𝗗é𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘀-𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗝 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗰é𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼 𝗱'𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗱é𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝗶.

Je pense que la disposition idéale se situe dans le retrait de la présence visuelle de la personne performante (sauf si cette présence est artistiquement requise). Un arrangement qui permet une meilleure concentration (ou une absence de déconcentration) relative à la source physique du son. Ça, je pense, c’est une manière de tirer le maximum de l’expérience. Je le perçois d’une manière similaire à éteindre un écran pour écouter une production. En enlevant le support visuel, on active des capacités auditives sur lesquelles on ne peut pas se concentrer lorsque nos yeux sont occupés à surveiller la source superficielle du son. Sans cette déconcentration, l’esprit est plus libre pour comprendre, cerner, aller plus loin dans ce qui est audible. On se perd moins dans des détails qui ne comptent pas, ultimement.
