🔥 ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢ: ᴄᴏɴᴛᴇɴᴛꜱ ʜɪɢʜʟʏ ꜰʟᴀᴍᴍᴀʙʟᴇ 🔥

For our sixth installment of Circlecast, Berlin-based @isolatedmaterial hits us with this absolute slammer of a mix. Overflowing with phat breaks and heavy electro artillery, it's a fast-paced rocket-fueled journey from start to finish. 

Peep some wise words from the man in our mini-interview below!

[This mix falls under 𝕽𝖎𝖋𝖙, our sub-series focused on the heavier/darker tones of electronic music]

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

Besides music I'm mostly into visual arts like photography, collages or generative art.

One artist that I really like is the experimental filmmaker Pedro Maia, who really pushes the boundaries of medium, particularly in his use of analog film.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐛𝐮𝐦, 𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭, 𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜?

Lately I've been really enjoying Sway EP by YSI.  It's a 4 tracker that spans across multiple moods and genres (ambient, indie rock, EBM...) but still feels very coherent as a whole. The production work on it is amazing, I especially love the processing on the different guitar parts in the title track. 

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

Generally when it comes to production, I try to make a point of not overthinking every step I take in order to avoid over-producing something, although this is something I still struggle with a bit.

I take a slighly different approach when it comes to DJing however, where I really try to "narrate a story" for the listener. When building a tracklist, I try to make sure the set has various sections with different moods, genres or BPMs which I then assemble together in a way that hopefully doesn't feel too contrived.

𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐃𝐉 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐡 (𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐩), 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

I like to be able to play both digital and vinyl in a set, so I guess having 2 CDJs as well as 2 turntables would be ideal (or just 2 turntables with time-coded vinyls, which is what I have at home). Mixer wise, I prefer to keep it fairly straight forward - a 2-channel mixer with EQ and filter is definitely enough for me.

I think it's important to be able to make the most of what I have available, and I find that a simple setup like this really forces me to get creative. That being said, I'd love to experiment in the future with more with effects and maybe 3 deck mixing.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭-𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐢𝐠?

Hard to say given all the amazing stuff I discovered during the lockdown, but I would have to go with Never Crash by Maelstrom.

Antifa is my cousin.  I heard some people were looking for her.  Since I like to be helpful when I can, she was in Alexandria last time I talked to her, three weeks ago.  I think she mentioned going to Zurich in the near future.

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
