INTERVIEW & TRACKLIST > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/hassan-abou-alam

@hassan-abou-alam the electronic technician from Egypt's underground, has been riding a long and high wave of peak performances. Following exhilarating live shows and DJ sets including a barrage of hot releases, most notably 'Shalfata' on YUKU and 'Mesh Mafhoom' on Nerve Collect in 2024 and his impeccable sound design has wooed crowds of sweaty ravers on dance floors and off.

Punchy low-ends, broken sound texture, strings full of character whir around, blistering sharp, and strands of traditional Middle Eastern drum patterns reimagined by Abou Alam pierce through sound systems. Genres stripped and mutilated create a gritty, grimy, euphoric experience in borderless sound, leaving scope for sensational body movement in any given setting.

Strapping this heat into an hour podcast for IA MIX 388, Hassan About Alam lets us into his world of music, a delivery of adventurous tracks meticulously placed, launching hard into 2025. Fasten your seatbelts!

INTERVIEW + MIX > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/bjarki/ 

Bjarki Rúnar Sigurðarson is an artist in flux, slipping through definitions as easily as he does genres. His early output on трип suggested a clear trajectory—big-room techno, high-impact, and high-energy. But @bjarki has always been more interested in disruption. He loves veering off the beaten track.

Over the past decade, his identity has splintered across at least twenty documented personas (and perhaps some more hidden from the voyeur's view), each serving a vessel for the unpredictable. He functions in a space of humour and unease—shaping music that is erratic, raw, and wholly untamed.

And there is a lot of it—keyword: a lot. Bjarki doesn’t just release music; he floods the system. His latest album, 'A Guide to Hellthier Life', is a sharp, satirical dismantling of the wellness guru social media economy, where self-care is commodified and monetised at scale.

Stepping up to deliver IA MIX 389, the Icelandic producer extends that same critique—a surreal, self-aware meditation on the absurdity of performative well-being. Dark humour is nothing new for Bjarki, but here, his observations feel more honed, more biting, more necessary.

The mix itself is impossible to bracket, moving through states rather than styles—thoughtful, meditative, ridiculous, and deeply melancholic all at once. It’s a trip, in every sense. And, as always with Bjarki, it’s best not to ask where it’s going.

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/earthen-sea

For the 390th edition of the IA MIX Series we are thrilled to share a deep dive into jazzy neo-noir ambience from American producer Jacob Long, aka Earthen Sea.

Currently based in New York City, Long is a DIY lifer, with over twenty years dedicated to Earthen Sea's wide range of sounds from long-form noise and drone recordings, minimal dub techno, and ethereal ambient experimentation. Long spent his early musical years in the Washington, D.C. hardcore group Black Eyes, before heading to San Francisco with bandmate Daniel Martin-McCormick to work with Damon Palermo on Mi Ami.

While all three members branched off into their own solo electronic projects (Ital/Relaxer for Martin-McCormick and Magic Touch for Palermo), Long's work as Earthen Sea originated in the early 2000s. It began with longer experiments in drone and ambient before morphing into the icy dub techno many came to know from releases on Kranky and Lover's Rock.

Recent LPs, such as 2024's Recollection, have veered to ambient, dub, and jazz-influenced tracks that consistently deliver the goods. For his mix, Earthen Sea offers an exhilarating combination of gamelan recordings, jazz, and dub techno. You will find it an ideal companion for your morning coffee or a night drive through empty, foggy cities. We also got to catch up with Jacob and learn about reuniting with Black Eyes, how recent live sets have incorporated saxophone driven drones, and his life-long love of skateboarding.

Bait is set to release the debut EP, ‘Hepp’, from Leipzig producer Old Man Crane with four subterranean bass experimentations.
Marking the 16th release on the label since its inception in 2023, the connection between Old Man Crance and the label started via a DM with her demos and blossomed into a collaborative partnership including a spontaneous back-to-back with Beatrice M. at Bassmaessage last year. The ‘Hepp’ EP follows shortly on from Old Man Crane’s first appearance on Bait via the One Hundred and Fifty Steps compilation series and begins an exciting chapter for the emerging artist.

For its third release, GRACE is stoked to get @lurka on the dials. On ‘Signal’, the Bristol head serves up a classy four-course menu of bass oddities primed and tested for club misdemeanour. 
The result is a spread of hyperdistinct energies channelled through weirdo wubs, skippy incantations, rude halftime drum power and fast funky bliss.

Lurka - Signal EP (GRACE) [Snippets]

CCL launches their subglow label with Rebuild, an EP from Bristol club provocateur @georg-i, featuring remixes from Metrist and the elusive B. McQueen.

After years of lighting up the dance floor at subglow and serving as a cornerstone in club sets, Rebuild is finally getting an official release to the public. georg-i’s previous releases on Perko’s FELT and aya & BFTT’s YCO imprints have established him as an incendiary club constructor probing the fringes of contemporary dance music. The release will be accompanied by poetry from subglow co-conspirator and artist Nadia Marcus, co-founder of Berlin experimental publishing platform TABLOID Press.

Informed by the restlessness of living in an apocalyptic present and the desire to rebuild the broken systems surrounding us, Rebuild is influenced by math rock's feverish and cataclysmic energy, eschewing conventional club BPMs in favour of dizzying tempo trickery and polymetric wizardry. “Torn In Two” gets off to a slow, chugging start, with raucous synths riffing over emphatic drums, but soon swirls into a juddering, pointillistic frenzy. “Bridging The Gap” is a cathartic shout, an acidic crescendo whose triplet meter offers tempo-transitioning opportunities for adventurous DJs who don’t mind a bit of maths. “Communication” gallops along cathartically through ricocheting synths and drums, unfolding into a thrilling breakdown. On remix duties, B. McQueen re-imagines “Torn In Two” as a sultry, dubbed-out roller, charting groove across a heady plain, while Metrist’s ambitious rework of “Communication” amps up the tension and primes it for a peak-time dancefloor sometime in the next millennium.

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST >  https://inverted-audio.com/mix/marco-weibel

Singapore-born, now New York-based selector Marco Weibel (@marcoweibel) distills a potent transmission for IA MIX 391, a testament to the power of eclecticism when guided by a curator with impeccable taste. It plays like a tribute to NYC — soundtracking a drift through cities restless arteries, from the crates of Human Head to Myrtle Avenue epiphanies, culminating in a 3AM descent into a steam-filled noodle joint, where basslines hang in the air like ghosts on the glass.

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/wrecked-lightship

Following the release of their second album last year, Adam Winchester and Laurie Osborne return as Wrecked Lightship on Peak Oil with their latest album 'Drained Strands', opening the hallowed doors of their submarine to all types of distorted fantasies.

As the name suggests, @wreckedlightship carries fractured memories of vessels forgotten in vast expanses, from the sea and beyond. The weight of their work conjures images of desolate landscapes beyond human reach, yet their invitation into this sonic vision becomes a ticket to inhabit the very space of extraterrestrials.

'Drained Strands' withholds a kind of extraordinary beauty that is more often felt than heard. This combined performance unit of solo acts Appleblim & Wedge exists in an untethered vortex - one built from scattered electronics and bruised hearts. All of this culminates in IA MIX 392, a studio mix where heavy scores of bass and a plethora of textures, some borrowed and some unheard, bubble together in a melting pot of comfort and disorder.

INTERVIEW + MIX > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/eden-aurelius

For the 393rd edition of the Inverted Audio Mix Series, we are thrilled to present an hour-long sonic journey from @edenaurelius. Currently based in New York, Eden’s spent many years immersed in the DIY and club scenes of NYC and Chicago, her previous home before relocating two years ago.

Last year’s debut ‘Pleateau’ was one of our favourite releases of 2024. A potent mixture of ambient and dub techno, ‘Pleateau’ has only gotten better in the spin around the sun since it was released. It hooks you in with its unhurried rhythms that pulse with a vibrant spirit. The album feels like a welcome time out from the anxieties of constant connections and endless news cycles.

Along with recent output by Purelink (who are friends and collaborators), Eden’s work feels like an essential new chapter in the long, winding story of ambient dub. As Summer takes control, we caught up with Eden to talk about her musical beginnings, all time and current favourite albums, and upcoming projects.
