Crown Ruler Mix #28 - Lil Mofo

KmsMixSeries#1

Earlier this year, we described Los Angeles act 1morning as one of the funkiest young producers in modern-day techno. And we stand by it. The fast-rising upstart is building a solid fan base around North America and beyond with a rugged, vintage style of swung techno and hardgroove. His all-vinyl DJ sets and pumping productions on the likes of Fixed Rhythms and Mála Ádh stand out for their distinctly old-school flavour—steamrolling hi-hats à la Robert Hood, swift choppage behind the decks and deep, deep grooves. Like many of his all-vinyl heroes, he's also a treat to watch behind the decks

The up-and-comer had a hell of a year in 2023, from playing in Japan to going on his first European tour, and his momentum shows no signs of slowing. He debuted at New York's dweller festival this year and K9 Unit, his duo with Bloodhound, recently did a night with fellow hardgroove king Regal86. It's only a matter of time until 1morning gets to a festival or a club near you so until then, enjoy his RA Podcast for now. The mix unfortunately came with some less than stellar circumstances, as the records 1morning pulled were stolen from his car, and so instead this RA Podcast became a statement of resilience and creativity—and, in his words, "an outlet for my rage."

Introduce yourself:

Part-time Dj dedicated to keeping the dancefloor pumpin at all hours of the night. Committed to spinning bongo driven techno, bouncy house, and sensual trance.

What was your inspiration for this mix:

Lately, me and homies have been talking about “tracks you want to hear when you are walking into the club.” That’s what I wanted for this mix, a bunch of sassy, vocal heavy, ravey progressive cutz that gave you the feeling that if you walked into the club while any of these tracks were playing you’d be like “damn what is this?” Or “who is deejaying right now”. 

I also always wrap every mix around one song, I call it the “thesis” of the mix. For this one it was Shytalks - Touch The House released in 1995 on Consolidated Records. I imagine what it felt like walking into the club in 1995 and hearing that track blasting.... It was prolly crazy af.... It’s the perfect “club walker” track! 

Favorite Djs:

Trax Unit, 1morning, DJ Miss Parker, Sekucci, Sterling Juan Diaz, Dj Rush, Misstress Barbara, Patrick Prins, Eris Drew, THC, Peach, Powder, Robert Armani, Vincent De Moor, Commander Tom, Thomas Schumacher, Olav Basoski, Dj Bam Bam

Dream collab?:
Any of those Djs up there ^^^^  at a jumpin day party in the summer. Like 85 degrees, a chill out room with mist, simple drinks, sexy people, and a banging ass soundsystem 


If we were going to a party and needed to get the pre-game turned up what would be the song you play?: 

Michael Jackson - Billie Jean 


In and outs for 2024:

I don’t really know….. all I know is that there are certain aspects of myself that were left in 2023, and certain parts of myself in 2024 I intend on uplifting.
So…. 

In: Me

Out: Out



Advice to the new upcoming DJs:

If your goal is to get booked at clubs/raves then your primary focus should be on recording club/rave ready peak time mixes. I think about mixes like the sports homies that go back and watch films of their games. Listen for everything you did wrong (and right!). Record like one or two a month and go back to listen to them a lot. I give myself the 3-6 rule, if I can’t listen to the mix 3-6 times in a row without getting tired of it, then I dump the entire thing and reset the mood/vibe. I know a lot of people say that soundcloud mixes shouldn’t be perfect but I kinda disagree. At a party, you have some of the liberty to slightly mess up or maybe drop the wrong track because most people paid a cover…. so they’re not gonna dip if you kinda mess up. But with a soundcloud mix, people have 100% ability to change your mix in less than a second if the tempo or vibe slips away. If your vibe is consistent, your mixing is tight, your tracks are cohesive, and contribute to each others sound and to the overarching tempo/energy, and you ran that shit back 3-6 times, then fire off those mixes to soundcloud labels/podcasts in different cities so they know your sound and you’re on their radar. That’s how I got my first few out of town bookings. Oh and expect to get ghosted a lot (I still get ghosted all the time lol)

What's next for you in 2024?: 

There’s a few things on the back burner rn, on a low simmer, but I don't wanna speak on them until they’re ready to be served. As of right now, I am just happy to be living in LA and down the street from Trax Unit. Gyration Station has a lot coming up this year and I am so grateful to be working with them. I am just happy to be healthy, have a career I love and that allows me to have fun on the weekend and for having a string of consistent bookings. That’s basically it, I'm excited for whichever gig I get to play next. #every #track #i #blend #is #a #privilege

Spacelab Episode 4 with David Noller of Dynamix II

A radiant beacon of light and energy, Naarm's longtime curator, tastemaker and worldly dance music selector Adriana steps away from the d-floor to serve us a delightful blend of soulful hip hop, r'n'b and neo soul, moving between vintage and contemporary cuts with complete ease and steeze! Opa!

@goodlucktoyourdad

Q. What inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time/place in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. This mix has been inspired by what I’ve been listening to as of late which has been heaps of rnb, neo-soul, hip-hop and afrobeat. Thrown in the mix are some real classics from the 90’s as well as some contemporary jams that have really impressed me. I think it’s too easy to get caught up in having to play only what is considered to be “underground” when in actual fact there are some fire mainstream releases as of late.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart, or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment?

A. The last jam ‘Come Dance with Me’ by Sleepy Brown definitely takes me back to my childhood and ignites a fire in my heart!! I wasn’t too sure if bringing up the mix by another 10bpm to finish was a wise move but I’m so glad I did! 

Q. A massive winter edition of your ever evolving Spasta party is happening this June with an mega lineup just announced (Jex Opolis, Ruf Dug & Adi Toohey to name a few), how long has this one been in the making, and what kind of vibes might we be able to expect over the two stages?

A. This Spasta is our biggest one yet and the enthusiasm behind it has been mind blowing!! People are so keen for a day festival in the Winter - especially when the lineup and location are undeniably amazing! 

As always, Spasta will emphasise my Greek culture - this time with a Florinian band to welcome guests upon arrival, Greek statues projected across the convent walls and ouzo to be catered at the bar.

We also really pride ourselves on the artists that we book - this time mixing it up between fan favourites and underground figures who deserve a spotlight on them because they’re so damn incredible!

Spasta prides itself on not being pretentious which is why it feels so welcoming. I am proud of the community that I have created alongside Finding Figaro, and am grateful that people are so trusting and receptive to our vision and values! We simply cannot wait to do it all over again with them this June! :D
