Here's a collection of all the podcasts we've done to date for those we love, those we know and those we respect. Each mix is quite different so tell the nurse to cancel your appointments because your belly isn't going to stop wobbling for some time.

Jagger and the Bat Podcasts

SBat Mixes

Come with your olde uncle Slaggy on a voyage to the Land of the Deep where the wild Slagbats roam. You'll need a head lamp, shovel, hammer(in case shit gets nasty) and of course...a towel. But be warned if you're looking for an all night rave this mix is not the one for you, over the course of the last 6 weeks or so it's slowly taken over my life and evolved in to what is now an unapologetically heads down, elbows up tear-jerker of a ride that I hope you enjoy. 

Along with the tracklist I've tried to tag as many of the artists as possible below so you can find more of the amazing music they make (thank you all for the incredible vibes) there is soooo much more that I would have loved to get on here too and will no doubt make it on to future mixes.

Slagbat - Voyage To The Land Of The Deep

Despite a flurry of technical issues this mix lives on. It was recorded in the Apartment of Sin and we were honoured to have it air on Matt Pond's fantastic MHYH Deepsystems radio show on 16/09/2013. Sadly the archive from the live show was lost forever because the signal kept dropping but here is our hour as it was recorded on that emotional dusty September weekend.

The mix is rough round the edges but warm on the inside, like a McDonalds apple bake. It was hustled together over one long weekend as me and Kris got back to grips with playing music together after a summer of moving out, tears and limited record purchases. Whilst it may not be our smoothest mix it has already found a place in our hearts and hopefully you'll hold it close to your chest and whisper to it gently. It may also be one of the most honest representations of Jagger and the Bat early doors at Arthouse where we try to lull you onto the dancefloor with tender loving care.

Jagger and the Bat - Deepsystems Radio Show Guest Mix

This is a mix we did for a Berlin radio show but it never made it to the air so about 8 months later we thought fuck it and have decided to upload it.

It's got more purpose and techno than any of our previous mixes not to mention enough balloon tunes to send you into the stratosphere. So grab yourself a towel, some canisters, your favourite dispenser and get ready to buzz.

Jagger and the Bat - Where Deflated Balloons Lie

It's been a long time since I posted a mix but after a [mostly] enjoyable battle I was finally able to put something together that I'm really happy with and excited to share.

I had wanted to do something a little slower for a long long time but never managed to see it through. Then about about 4 weeks ago I decided to dedicate myself to the task and spent a few hours each day over a weekend going through all of my records, picking out anything that I could get to roughly the speed I wanted and then tried to figure it out from there. And try I did. The end result, I hope you'll agree, is a slow burning backroom teaser for those looking to escape the madness of the main room and spend a little quality time with their strange uncle Slagbat. A cheeky stomper, you might say.

I would also like to give a big ups to my amazing friends who over the last 12 months recommended some of the albums that I found tracks on for this this mix. Also a big bark out to The House of Dog for being the best darn record shop/dog house there is.

The artwork I found online by https://www.deviantart.com/dietrock.

Jagger and the Bat - A Token Goodbye

And now for something slightly different - but also something we're going to be doing more of too: Muzan is proud to present SBat's opening set from our Subterra party at Osaka's Upsidedown last month. 
SBat began the night right, slowly sinking us in deep with choice choice atmospherics and hypnotizing beats. The party that followed was one to remember and we're delighted to present our listeners with a glimpse of that night.

//////

SBat - Subterra - Live at Upsidedown 17.06.23

This set was recorded live on the night opening from 11pm - 1am for Subterra, something I hope will become a regular thing in Osaka (and hopefully Tokyo). It was a truly amazing night to be a part of and something I spent a lot of time thinking about and getting records together that I hoped I could piece together on the night to suck people in and set the scene for DJ Morita, Lene Andreasen and yu1 (who all played amazingly). The mix is of course a bit rough around the edges, a couple of times I zigged when I planned to zag but hopefully that adds to the charm and the journey as a whole is one you'll enjoy. I know I certainly enjoyed being there and listening back to it brings back memories of what was an incredible night that I won't soon forget.

I went back through the mix trying to piece together the tracklist so hopefully others can go forth and find more stuff by all of the amazing artists on there. I think I got them all but apologies if I missed/messed up!

I'm extremely honoured to host a mix by the infamous Jean de Plume (aka Bashley) @jean-de-plume. 

When asked if he wanted any description adding he said "No, no text needed, use the ‘art’work" so I'll let the "art" do the talking whilst you get a...well...streaming...

Jean de Plume - Deep Apnea

This month we are treated to a sublime guest mix from Tokyo's Sbat @jagger-and-the-bat - deep diving into his record collection and and unearthing a set full of hypnotic 100bpm chuggers that the Guv'nor Mr. Weatherall would be proud of. Lovingly crafted - thank you Ben!

@nickcobby provides an hour of atmospheric and thoughtful ambient selections to start us off. Inspired by the 5am risers in Tokyo's dreamy, sprawling metropolis...

2nd Hour: Sbat

Recorded in my Tokyo apartment on a couple of 1200s, a lone XDJ and my cherished FF4000 mixer, the mix was slowly put together over the course of a couple of months as I went through almost all of my collection trying to find the right records (old and new). I've always been a big fan of DJs that can keep chugging from one 100bpm obscure number to the next, all the while making all everything sound like it belongs together (e.g. Andrew Weatherall in full backroom swing) and I really wanted to try and create my own version of that where you're taken through different styles, almost without realising (I hope), but whilst keeping the focus on a late night/early morning stomp in the backroom of some weird Tokyo after hours club you probably should have left ages ago...but you didn't...and you still have a few more hours in you.

Gated Podcast 57 // SBat Part 2 // February 2024

Muzan Editions is honored to welcome SBat once more to our growing collection of mixes and sets by friends near and far. For this installment, we present SBat's ambient set at the wonderful Liminal Dreams party in Tokyo (2023.12.10). SBat conjures up a shimmering dreamscape of sounds that warps seamlessly between genre and mood, guiding the listener through nostalgic rememberances, glistening electronic futures, and hazy mirages that elude categorization. We recommend getting very comfortable and organizing some proper listening conditions before drifting off (and drifting deep) into this one.

We'd like to thank the Liminal Dreams crew for signing off on our use of Sbat's set. LD has a special place in the hearts of us here at Muzan. Not only are they an integral part of the flourishing ambient scene in Tokyo, but were kind enough to invite Endurance to their very first event - and Dérive to their latest party last month! Their lineups are always incredible, with past special guests including artists like Sunju Hargun, Chris SSG, Sapphire Slows, and Jane Fitz - just to name a few. All of which makes us even more excited to be showcasing a set from one of their events. Enjoy!

SBat - Live at Liminal Dreams

This is the live recording of mine and @raul_rs set from from the 2nd Subterra party we did in August 2024. It followed an amazing live hour long ambient live set by  @joshua-stefane, which you catch the very end of at the beginning of the mix. 

We played from 11 PM to 1 AM, and although it was only the second time we've performed together, it felt like the culmination of countless Friday night sessions at home with nothing but a bottle of Nihonshu (or 3) and our wits (or lack thereof). I hope we'll get to do it again very soon but for now just sit back, relax, and let Rasbat take you on a ride.

Raul and the SBat - Live at Subterra Tokyo August 2024

Here is the first in what I'm hoping will be a regularly recorded mid-afternoon, unplanned mix series alongside my brother from a Spanish mother @raul_rs. And maybe even the odd solo outing too.

But for this first effort we go b2b keeping things below 90bpm as we dip, dive and chug our way through an afternoon, proving to no one but ourselves that "everything sounds better when you slow it down". So unbuckle your seat belt, grab yourself a spanner and prepare to bypass the compressor because the next 2.5 hours we'll be dropping out of light speed with "those weirdos you sometimes see at a festival", Raul and SBat. I've got a bad feeling about this...

Jagger and the Bat - Business Times and Business Lines (GCW Radio Guest Mix)

It's taken over 4 years and enough emotions to take down a heard of yaks to finally record a new solo mix that I'm happy with and here it is. It's a mystical tale of adventure and coming of vibes.

There's no dub techno intro here and the fucker bolts  early and pegs it towards the finishing line. I hope it hits the spot. I'm not going to put a tracklist up but feel free to ask for particular tracks and I'll try and share what I can.

Slagbat - The Untold Adventures of Captain Vibes

So it's finally time to end the Arhouse SoundCloud account *wipes tears from eyes* for no other reason than to be able to spend the extra $9 a month it was costing on more useful things like black jack and sake. But fear not because the magic lives in this playlist in all it's original glory. So come and rediscover days gone by with a trip down an Arthouse memory lane. There's some absolute cracking mixes in here so sit back, relax and let the vibes fondle you sexually.

Ciaran Hansen - Arthouse 004

This is not your usual Jagger and the Bat tackle. Deep and sinister with a casual edge. Music for the people, by the people. A devilish dance with the whims of chance. Essentially it's just sex music.

Jagger and the Bat - GCW Radio Show 180812

23 months after moving to Tokyo here is my first mix recorded straight off the [slag]bat one rainy afternoon in Tokyo in my apartment. It's a deep bum tickler compiled almost completely from second hand records I've picked up in Tokyo (and a couple of new releases...albeit of old music). It'll crawl up your spine like a dry sake and whisper seductively in to the back of your brain. So sit down and relax, Slaggy B's gotcha covered for the next hour.

The Reintroduction of DJ Slagbat

Slagbat - The Reintroduction of DJ Slagbat

This is a mix I did in 2019 for the excellent Skew Whiff night and KMAH radio show as hosted by Dr Joseph and I like to think of it as a sneaky little stealth acid  tickler. Highly recommended to be listened to by the pool but failing that indoors on a rainy day should work just fine (just be sure  to crank the heating up).

Slagbat - Skew-Whiff KMAH Mix

Here's a mix we recorded especially for Jane Fitz and her amazing DirtySounds Session radio show that goes out on myhouseyourhouse.net every Monday night from 10pm. The mix was aired on 11/02/2013 and was recorded live around November...we think. 

It was made for the radio with love and rest assured no vinyl was inappropriately touched during the recording, not in a sexual way anyway. We mixed it not long after another show we did for Greta Cottage and wanted to make sure it didn't sound the same. So Kris and I dug out some house bombs, slammed a couple of espressos, dropped a Walt J record right at the beginning and went from there.

We recommend listening to it between the hours 10 and 11 at night, preferably on a Monday, but failing that brew up some fair trade coffee and let the sex music take hold.

Jagger and the Bat - DirtySounds Session Mix 11-02-2012

I considered not uploading this but given that I've become obsessed with mapping out some sort of personal music history today this mix had to be thrown in. I'm listening to it now for the first time in years and rest assured I am loving it. You however, may not.

It is in some ways the musical equivalent of The Phantom Menance. The childish beginning to what I'm sure you'll all be telling your kids was a cracking end. It's funky. It's fast. It's jackin' and it sure as hell is a lot of fun (provided you're not a bit of a cunt). 

Recorded way back in 2006 it is probably the best example of what I bought and played when I first got a set of turntables and had been able to amass a semi-decent amount of records.

Put this mix on when you're home alone cleaning on a Saturday and shake yo thang. It will be our dirty little secret.

Also I would like to make a formal apology to Gemma Jones for the image that goes with this mix. I tried to find something from back in 2006 but fortunately my Facebook doesn't go that far back so I just took the oldest photo I had online. Still, somehow it seems right.
