Jenö in the VOID - Oct 2013

A relatively obscure & hard to find Jeno classic mix, due to being somewhat overshadowed by the "Jeno - United DJ's of America" CD that came out around the same time, but this is an equally entertaining & energetic blueprint of the mid-90s West Coast sound..

Enjoy..

Jenö - San Francisco CD (blue cover) 1996

Another hard to find Jeno mix from 2004, a vocal exploration of love, loss and desire. All songs are favorite vocal classics from the late 80s and early 90's...

Can pick up a copy of the CD on discogs for $100, or enjoy here :)


Jenö - Mysteries of the Heart 2004

my first stab at a remix..

released on Grayhound Records, SF

Garth & ETI - 20 Minutes of Disco Glory (Jenö's Release It Mix) 1998

Edited for length, this is the best part of the trip from Jeno's December VOID set. Very eclectic, and closes with some genuine Wicked/Full Moon classics.

Originally broadcast live ON AIR via mixlr.com/jenovoid

Enjoy..

026 The Tortoise

A big salty salutation from 'The Tortoise', who we humanly know as Torquhil Anderson - though we'd need to dry him off and double check his micro-chip.

For this mix we've been lucky enough to have the beloved man-creature pop out of his shell and onto the two sturdy ship wheels of the Waxflower bar-boat to serenade any passers-of-port with a few rhythmic full-mast high-torq shanties. Who knows what the tide will drag in!?

The Tortoise has been making house music for over a decade now, playing heat packed sets (the fire brigade we've personally witnessed on one occasion), and of course hanging out and around the Galápagos archipelago.

Argh me Turties!

Continuing explorations into the modern balearic sound, while adding a touch of cosmic downtempo beats and deep dance

SHADES OF SOUND W/ JOE MORRIS - 1 NOV 24

Good Block provides the sonic sounds this time round as they come in big for number #007 of our Moonlight Sessions mix series. Recorded back in November, producers, visual artists, DIY record label and DJ duo Good Block brought their expansive selections to The Marquee Moon. The pair have been busy preparing new music (TBA soon) and set to be released on their own imprint, but for now, listen back to over 5 hours of free-flowing music from the depths of their record bags constantly manoeuvring towards the dancefloor.

Moonlight Sessions 007 — Good Block

One of the truest stylists in DJing.

Although leaving behind only a small repertoire, sadly cut short by an early and unexpected passing, what we have left as evidence of his deep dedication to the pleasures of music is so unique and designed with such charming consistency, that when listened to, can only be Zecky’s selection.


Since the late 2000’s we studied the few mixes we could get our hands on obsessively, to the point where for example: we will never be able to hear Pats and Pat “Tobago” without the expectation of “City Lights” to be mixed in next, courtesy of the 2008 Ebisu Bar Jam recording. To us, Zecky became a sub genre of music — "Zecky style tracks" — something in the realms of what we might consider as Balearic, but still somehow blurring the borders of acceptable Italo-disco, and then coming way out of left field with something contemporary like Simply Red...and somehow it all made perfect sense. A lot of these tracks may seem obvious now, but keep in mind this was mid 2000’s, a lot of these tracks were still not known, discogs was not what it is today: contextually, the calliber of his research was heavy. Imagine living in a time when the idea of what a good DJ should be doing is minimal techno yet you’re a Japanese guy going to Italy to look for completely expired Italo material, one can only imagine the facial expressions and dialogues that might have emerged between Italian record store owners and Zecky throughout his digging travels.


The role that talent plays in the DJ "profession" can sometimes feel fuzzy, especially in the post social media/CDJ era. In our humble opinions however, listening to Zecky’s oeuvre gave this mystery a good amount of inspiring clarity. The aesthetic precision of his selection supported by his simple but flawless mixing created compositions so striking that the mixes became new stories or soundtracks to beautiful movies no one had ever seen before. It really felt like he was making something larger than the music he was using to compose these moments. A common (and disturbing) cliche one often hears when people go about describing a DJ’s work is the idea of being a “story teller”. To us Zecky genuinely put forth this idea on a meaningful level, his stories were some of the nicest of all.

We learned so much from Zecky.


Thank you for the music and happy birthday — Zecky would have been 54 today.


Thank you to Daisuke, his party partner, for making this possible ❤️

DJ 界での真のスタイリストの一人。
残念ながら、予期せぬ早すぎる死によって残されたレパートリーはわずかですが、音楽の楽しみに対する彼の深い献身の証拠として残されたものはとてもユニークで、魅力的な一貫性をもってデザインされており、聴くとZeckyのセレクションを感じざるを得ません。
2000 年代後半から私たちは手に入れることができる数少ないミックスを執拗に研究し、例えば、2008 年の恵比寿バージャムのレコーディングのおかげでパットとパットの「Tobago」を聞くと、次に「City Lights」がミックスされることを期待せずにはいられなくなりました。
私たちにとってZecky は音楽のサブジャンル、つまり「Zecky スタイルのトラック」になりました。これは、私たちがバレアリックと考えるものの領域に属しながら、それでも許容できるイタロディスコの境界を曖昧にし、その後 Simply Red のような現代的なものによって予想外の形で登場しました... そしてどういうわけか、すべてが完璧に理にかなったものでした。これらのトラックの多くは今では当たり前に思えるかもしれませんが、これは 2000 年代半ばのことであり、これらのトラックの多くはまだ知られておらず、discogs は今日ほどではありませんでした。文脈上、彼のリサーチの質は高いものでした。優れた DJ が行うべきのことはミニマルテクノであるという考え方がある時代に生きていると想像してください。しかし、あなたは完全に期限切れのイタロの素材を探しにイタリアに行く日本人男性です。彼のレコード探しの旅を通して、イタリアのレコード店のオーナーと Zecky の間に生まれたであろう表情や会話は想像するしかありません。 DJ という「職業」において才能が果たす役割は、特にソーシャル メディアや CDJ の時代以降は、曖昧に感じられることがあります。しかし、私たちのささやかな意見としては、Zecky の作品を聴くとこの謎がかなりはっきりと理解できました。彼の選曲の美的精度と、シンプルでありながら完璧なミキシングが、非常に印象的な作品を生み出し、そのミックスは新しい物語や誰も見たことのない美しい映画のサウンドトラックになりました。彼は、これらの瞬間を作曲するために使用した音楽よりも大きな何かを作っているように感じました。人々が DJ の仕事を説明するときによく耳にする一般的な (そして不快な) 決まり文句は、「ストーリーテラー」であるという考えです。私たちにとって、Zecky はこの考えを本当に意味のあるレベルで提示しており、彼の物語は最も素晴らしいものでした。私たちは Zecky から多くのことを学びました。音楽をありがとう。誕生日おめでとうございます。Zecky は今日 54 歳になっていたはずです。これを実現させてくれたパーティーパートナーの大輔に感謝します❤️

UPDATED WITH FULL TRACKLISTING

Never have I needed it more than this winter & spring. Just to stay sane & get by.

Music at its best is a spiritual practice. Dance music even more so. I wanted this extended, eclectic set to highlight strong songs that have offered me small rays of inspiration & solace among the newscycle.

Some are new/recent, some are old but still new (for me) and some are eternal classics (life is too short not to play them at every opportunity).

Hope you enjoy the 4-hour journey ❤️

SONGS NOT TRACKS #5 /// eclectic 4-hour house mix

Sly Stone died recently and we lost one of the great pioneers of funk music. He was a great influence on modern music and changed the rules for how people made soul, funk and dance music. He had his problems with drugs but his legacy rather than the bad press will survive. He was a tremendous influence on me and having seen his band at their peak showed just how good they were live. RIP Sly. You will be missed.

So, what is a "Utility Groove" anyway?  

I imagine this like a back-up generator.  When the beat has abandoned you, when the vibe is absent, when you feel everything starting to wind down--you call on your "Utility Groove" and it will get things going again--perhaps not for very long, nor at full power...but enough to get you by.  

This is the latest track from Interbay--and if you've been following along and reading these descriptions, you know that I'm constantly trying to force my neurodivergent/adhd brain to keep things simple.  And usually, my efforts result in something that could be collected and shared by FailArmy.  I just have to color in every blank space--and it can make for some very interesting compositions, but those can often confuse listeners not prepared for lurches into different tempos or the blendings of genres never meant to blend (not to mention the songs that drag out for seven, eight, even nine minutes in length.  Fine if you're an acid rock band or if you're making trance records, but thanks to MTV and TikTok, not really built for modern attention spans.)  

I had a little piano figure I wanted to work with...and I knew I wanted it to be slower paced...and I didn't want to overstuff this one, I wanted to keep it (say it with me now) simple.  

...and I think I did it.  For once, I kept the track simple!  

There's not much too this--it's a little slip of a song, based around that piano, an upright bass and a boom bap beat.  (I couldn't even kid myself long enough to add the hip hop & rap tag--this would only piss off fans of those genres if they got linked to it.)  

I'd call it triphop--and thus, part of electronic music.  There's also some electronic processing, some thunderous 808s...a vintage soulful vocal sample, a couple of saxophones...and that's about it.  It did the job assigned to it, it gets in...it does its thing...and it gets out of there.  

I did have thoughts about adding more vocal samples, possibly explaining the title/narrative with words in the song instead of words in the description, but I think you can "get" what its going for without them...and that opens up the space and lets this track breathe a little--thankfully!  

It always seems like such damnedable faint praise to describe this as "pleasant"--but compared to the often much noisier and abrasive tracks that Interbay has shared with the world in two and a half years...I think "pleasant" is EXACTLY what this track is.  

It is the groove you need when you just need a groove.  Thus, it is your "Utility Groove".

Listen, like, repost, share, comment, playlist and follow for more, please!

(Even, sort of, kept the description simple!  Who am I?????)
