Spring 2018

A binaural recording of three tracks from my first 4DSOUND performance - Woven Ancestry, Meadows and Gravity Well.

Woven Ancestry is from the Human LP out now, available from iTunes at www.smarturl.it/MCHuman and on vinyl and CD from bit.ly/FIELDSshop. 

The experience will only work if you listen with headphones, and in a quiet location. Closing your eyes helps. Relax and let yourself naturally build a mental picture of your surroundings based only on what you hear.

ABOUT 4D SOUND

The 4D Sound System was designed and developed in Amsterdam by Paul Oomen, Salvador Breed, Luc Van Weelden and Poul Holleman. It comprises 16 columns with omnidirectional speakers at several heights in each column, and the columns spaced around the room in a 12 x 12 x 4m array.

They have designed Max for Live devices which provide a range of spatial controls within Ableton Live, as well as an accompanying visual 3D model of the space and sounds within it. This allows for a spatial composition/production process, whereby each piece of music is designed as a physical entity to exist within the space, as something that can be walked around inside and explored by the listeners.

The system is called "4D Sound" because it produces sound in all 3 spatial dimensions, as well as being able to move sounds through the space in time - the 4th dimension.

In hour 2 we welcome one of Detroit's finest, Scott Grooves to Solid Steel. He was part of Kevin Saunderson's Inner City project, released his debut album for Soma and collaborated with many legendary figures, and here he delivers his latest concept 'Overdubs' featuring live percussion, Keyboards & mixed together by Scott along with Ian Finklestien (keyboards & engineer). This is what he had to say;
 "The name is fitting because it simply explains the function with just 2 words Over..Dub. Also I would like to add a few more elements to the Overdubapproach in addition to my djing and venture out later this year to a ear near U. I would like to further acknowledge the original composers for providing some true inspiration & musical direction"

In Hour 2 to complete the Black Acre takeover, we have Cervo who released his 12" 'Deyo' on the label last year, plus an EP on Marcel Vogel’s Lumberjacks in Hell label. He is also part of the Global Roots Soundsystem with Thris Tian and co-founder of club night & label 'Banana Hill'. He had this to say about his mix;
"I was pretty nervous putting something together for Solid Steel as I've followed the series for a long time! This mix is part-collage, part-cosmic party excursions from around the world. I've tied some field recordings around some of my favourite records and a sprinkling of new exclusives. It made sense in my head, I hope you like it."

V ka has an amazing ability to make uniform compilation 
for her sets from the warm sound of the micro and minimal house to 
oldschool electro and broken beats using vinyl and digital holders. Also she using  analog synthesizers for her life performances.
V ka (Vika) was born in the Central part of the Russian Federation during the collapse of the USSR in 1990. Now she lives in Moscow.
Directly her DJ career began in 2008, when she studies the skills of DJing in the city of Yekaterinburg. Her talent does not go unnoticed by promoters and party makers.
So in a short time she becomes a resident, and also a welcome guest of various Russian festivals and parties far beyond her hometown.
Over the next ten years, V ka travels with her music beyond Russia: China (Shanghai, Zhangjiagang, Wujiang, Suzhou), India (Goa, Calcutta, Pondicherry, Delhi), Sweden (Stockholm) Germany (Berlin clubs GoldenGate, Sisyphos, Ritter Butzke, Chalet, Anomalie also Feel Festival 2017) 
Mixtapes of V ka play on Moodytech radio (Romania), Mondobongo radio (Greece), YourRadio (Israel), FLAT FM (Russia), Better Be Nice afterhours (Austria) and etc.
Vika shared the stage with international musicians like Sven Vath, Ada Kaleh, Butch, Lee Jones, Truncate, Marc Depulse, Matthias Kaden, Nikita Zabelin, Oliver Kolezki, Sandra Mosh.
For V ka it’s very important to make people feel what she wants to convey them. Each of her sets is a new story with deep emotional overtones.

We proudly present you for our sixth edition label boss from "Sol Asylum" Julie Marghilano.

Despite not being a native to the city, Julie Marghilano has done that most difficult of things: she has made a name for herself as one of Berlin’s most cherished creative souls. As a broadly informed DJ, truly experimental house producer and taste making label boss who, with friend Jools, has built a compact and bijou empire around her Sol Asylum label and party, Julie is very much defining the modern house and techno landscape.
This almost 2 hours of the live cut from the Sol Asylum anniversary at Hoppetosse Berlin is a nice presentation of what Julie has hidden in her record bag.
A nice combination of classic house, atmospheric landscapes combined with a techno groove.
Enjoy.

Fink - 'See It All'

Fink returns with the second single from his 3rd album of his Ninja Tune Records trilogy, “Sort of Revolution.” 

“See It All,” one of the album’s signature tracks, is blessed with falling piano lines, pulsing electric bass, and a driving rhythm which combines relentless propulsion with sublime subtlety. “Q&A” finds Fink in a deeply soulful and moody a cappella, building a tune from his own vocal parts - layers of harmony buzzing through your ears, as warm and rich as it is clever and hypnotic. Both of these tracks were recently recorded live on Fink’s latest Gilles Peterson Maida Vale session for BBC Radio 1, while the LP version of “See It All” has just been confirmed as the opening track on the season premiere on the longstanding and now infamous TV show CSI:NY. 

Remixes come from D*L*I*D (fresh from their stunning remix of Phoenix's "1901" single, this remix is only their second!), Emika (Ninja Tune's latest signing, bringing Berlin heaviness to the table), and Fink’s dub alter-ego, Sideshow (critically lauded and internationally sharing 12's with Martyn, remixing Appleblim, and releasing albums on Aus Music). D*L*I*D channels the spirit of J-Dilla, turning the original into a super-heavy head-nodder. Label-mate Emika turns the original into a dark and brooding epic that builds towards a huge finale – a la Massive Attack with serious skunk-paranoia. Sideshow once again showcases Fink’s production cred with an echo box and compression chamber, skillfully stripping the parts and fitting them together into brand new shapes. 

Fin Greenall, aka Fink, is among the more understated of the world’s ‘singer-songwriters’, relying on uncompromising quality of work and an astounding stage presence, rather than major label marketing budgets. A master lyricist and in-demand songwriter, having most recently co-written with John Legend for Legend’s ‘Evolver’ LP as well as two of Ninja Tune’s latest signings: Andreya Triana and Emika. Currently touring the UK with band mates Guy Whittaker on bass and Tim Thornton on drums, Fink is as hectic as ever with a tour of France throughout October; November spent in China, Hong Kong, and Vietnam; the USA in December; and Australia (including 3 headline evenings at the Sydney Festival) and Japan in January. 

See It All / Q&A, taken from the Sort of Revolution LP, is released on Ninja Tune records on 19 October as a download only.
