PREMIERE : Sina XX - Toxic People (Elise Massoni Remix) (AG012)

November (Elise Massoni Remix)

Shredding the concept of DJing down and remoulding it in her own provocative way, @maryloudj pushes the artform into bold, expressive forms that make simple beatmatching seem timid by comparison. The Berlin-based DJ is rightly proud of her approach, which she deems "unprofessional", drawing as it does on an intimate and wide-reaching relationship with sound unbound by the Tetris-block approach to DJing which so often goes along with sequenced electronic music. Drawing from a lifelong fascination with sounds from all parts of the world, and gifted with the creative elan to pull off wild shifts and unlikely juxtapositions, Marylou represents a growing culture of non-conformist DJing that proves there is so much more to say in pairing music than just keeping two beats in time. 

For this IOMix, which accompanies Joseph Francis' in-depth interview with Marylou, we've been gifted a recording of her Sunday afternoon set from pe:rsona 2024, an intimate festival hosted by @positiveeducationfest that took place in France. As the photos attest, it was a blistering July sun that beat down on the three hour session, and there's a sense of that clamouring, dry heat in Marylou's mesmerising, epic session. There's so much to experience and absorb - drums of all shapes and sizes, chants from unknown lands, extreme textures and haunting beauty, crushing bass and bittersweet swerves. You'll never hear another DJ do it quite like Marylou.

Next up on the Fast Forward Audio Series, we present: Elise Massoni

  Based in Paris, Elise Massoni is, first and foremost, a DJ and producer with a distinct style and flawless skills. Her fast-paced and strong selection of contemporary techno, drawing inspiration from the past while embracing the future, has propelled her to prominence as a rising star in the French techno scene.
With her unique ability to bridge the divide between ardent non-techno enthusiasts and purists, Elise commands a magnetic presence, focusing on harmonies and intensity to weave a narrative reflective of the diversity she embodies. Her approach to interpretation has always been grounded in the belief that 'feelings come first'

  About the mix:
 "Feeling a bit drained by winter and under the weather, I wanted to create something comforting, like that old plaid you love to wrap yourself in.
As a teenager, I used to listen to mixes in bed, dreaming of being in clubs while drifting off to sleep, caught in the loop. I tried to capture that feeling here. Hope you enjoy it !"

Fast Forward Audio Series #105 - Elise Massoni

Memory Lake #7 w/ ophélie | Shella Radio 19.01.2025

POLAARIZED is a 6-track LP where the label’s core artists collaborate with some of the most daring and influential creatives shaping today’s music. Polarization—a scientific phenomenon that aligns forces in a shared direction—becomes a metaphor for the collective power of collaboration, where contrasting voices converge into something greater.

POLAARIZED reimagines the club as more than just a dancefloor—it’s a space for radical expression, a meeting point where boundaries blur, and communities thrive. This release is a sonic manifesto for those who live at the edge of the underground, where music becomes a force of connection and change.

To celebrate POLAARIZED, we’ve created a limited-edition sticker pack inspired by iconic Panini collections. Each pack includes 12 unique designs inspired by the concept of light polarization. Limited to 100 copies, these packs come with the digital album.

*ALARMA SPOTLIGHT #07* - ELISE MASSONI (live from Trabendo Paris)

a kaleidoscopic session from one of the uk’s best gems, wordcolour. an artist who excels in storytelling through their productions, this approach to his craft is translated in podcast 215 as the mix gently starts with stunning ambient moments before building into a masterclass of drum programming. pacing through halftime, techno and IDM, it’s an unpredictable 72 minutes with wordcolour showing us his cards — a hand dealt with authenticity as a marker of where he’s at right now as a dj and producer. 

wordcolour made his production debut on lapsus records in 2020 before heading over to fabric’s esteemed imprint houndstooth where he released ‘juno way’ - a breakthrough record as such for wordcolour. this was the beginning of a long-standing relationship with houndstooth where he also went on to release ‘bluster’ ep featuring remixes from djrum, dj python and the soft pink truth, his debut album ‘the trees were buzzing, and the grass.’ and the ratios series. on all of these records, wordcolour’s ability to create detailed, immersive soundscapes which emotionally resonated with both home listening and dancefloor moments, has shined through. continuing on this path of world building, earlier this month wordcolour released the first ep on his new label, TiHKAL, from london-based artist st. amp. a label dedicated to exploring psychedelic soundscapes which is a direction that wordcolour has been producing in recently as well as ties in with the parties he now likes to attend, TiHKAL will be a new home for tracks that land within the 150-200 / 75-100 bpm zone.

to celebrate the release, wordcolour has pulled together a mix that delves into the influences behind this new direction and we chat more about the concept of TiHKAL, approach to curation, early influences and more.

Outsiders: Cozi w/ softi @ Kiosk Radio 15.03.2025

Kombé, from the Somatic Rituals crew, channels a deep synergy between polyrhythmic hypnosis and tactile sound design, shaping a sonic landscape that pulses with kinetic urgency. His Operator Radio transmission is a passage through the liminal spaces of bass, percussion, and club experimentation—where the raw physicality of syncopated drum pressure meets the ghostly reverberations of ambient textures. Expect shifting tempos, sub-heavy mutations, and a deft curation that bridges the diasporic echoes of rhythm science with contemporary electronic exploration.

Transcendence with cusoon dj aka @andriy_k invited by @livingcode
Live recorded at @inbeatwin, Milano

"Andriy Kostyukov, aka Andriy K., is a Kyiv-born, Berlin-based experimental sound producer and DJ.
His work explores sound design experiments within both listening and club music, drawing heavily from ambient, IDM, and Bass mental techno. By exploring the therapeutic effects of textures and the depths of human reflection, Andriy’s music offers a journey through emotions and mental artifacts. His live performances often feature dubbed guitars and vocals, creating a deep emotional impact.

Today, he takes us on a swampy journey from the club into the forest, exploring ambient, IDM, and bass-driven sounds."

We are so excited to welcome Melbourne- based dj, radio host, curator and label head @pjenne to our mix series. 

Pjenne is at the forefront of the Aussie underground scene, a true visionary! Her sound takes many forms and genres but she crafted a unique style that is very much of her own. If you haven’t already listened to her beautifully curated radio show/mix series Passing Notes we highly recommend.  

 “This mix is a live recording of (most of) my set at @terra-obscura-london in London in April last year. I played from 12-2am after Slowfoam and before Oma Totem Live - a time in the night where Ormside projects was transformed from 'soft furnishings' to club. I think the mix represents the music I played a lot across my tour last year (and probably won't stop playing), with an additional emotional sprinkle that was inspired by the work of @avsluta and @aliciasteanson. <3”
