Really interesting interview thanks for this.

Music is good BUT THAT INTERVIEW RUINS IT!!!

Just checked this out again after commenting on the DF118 release on Discogs. Great interview covering a wide range of years and productions .. Shame there was nothing about Citadel of Kaos but covered a lot ! Bigup Mr Hill and Simon Carter

this tune represents my LSD ridden childhood- dark, brooding and menacing,  but somehow magical and next dimension business

Tripalium Podcast 09 - Minimum Syndicat

Tune in each Wednesday, 11.00 - 13.00 GMT on www.KoolLondon.com 'The Roots Of Rave' show .

In this show i broadcast a program constructed from an interview with Simon Carter, one of our rave scenes most interesting and engaging characters, not to mention long staying. 
Many will know him as Crystal Distortion of the infamous and historically important Spiral Tribe collective. But if we flip back in time some 24 years, some may know his records as half of Earth leakage Trip on Rising High during the very early 90's, a few may even make the connection of ELT having produced the first ever record on now legendary label Moving Shadow in 1991 (The Doors are where the windows should be....etc) .... Also having released hundreds of records on labels like Drop Bass Network, their own Network 23, Sapho and UglyFunk, even acting as engineer for Reel 2 Reel records (The label that brought you Lennie De Ice's game changing "We are ie").
This interview is stuffed with tales of world Techno traveller adventures, back stories to tracks and early Spiral history in abundance, with an insane and infectious passion for music and life, shining brightly throughout.

During the first part of the show I just play a selection of early Techno and Acid music of an ilk prevalent at early Raves around the turn of the 80s-90s, then all the music during the interview is produced or co-produced by SImon with the exception of :
Renegade Soundwave - Ozone Breakdown
Jeff Mills - SeaWolf
Xenophobia - Rush In The House

CJ Bolland ( born Christian Jay Bolland, 18 June 1971, Stockton-on-Tees, England, UK ) is a British electronic music producer and remixer. CJ was one of the first music producers to be signed to the legendary R&S record label ( Ghent ). The first release on R&S was 'Do That Dance' in 1989. A second album for R&S was to follow - '95's 'Electronic Highway' - but by late 1994, CJ had already left R&S to sign an exclusive 5-album deal with Internal/Polygram. The first of these LPs was '96's 'The Analogue Theatre'.
He is best known for his song "Sugar Is Sweeter" which hit #1 in the United States. Bolland is also a prolific remixer with a long résumé, including songs by Orbital, Depeche Mode, Moby, The Prodigy and Tori Amos. His song "The Prophet", sampling Willem Defoe in Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ is still an international club hit.
He is also notable as the first artist to release an album in the DJ-Kicks series for Studio !K7 independent record label, entitled DJ-Kicks: C.J. Bolland. The album was released on September 4, 1995. In 2002 he started his own record label called Mole Records.
February 2004 saw the release of The Body Gave You Everything, the debut album by Magnus, a dance music/pop collaborative project with Tom Barman, founder and singer for the Belgian rock band, dEUS.
December 2006 Bolland released a solo album called The 5th Sign with Belgian online record label, The Wack Attack Barrack.
His latest album 500 euro Cocktail is released on Wikkid Records, iTunes and Beatport. He is currently working on an new Magnus album.

CJ Bolland  - Tech Clubbers Podcast #128

Old Studio Liveset, thought I'd put it up for all you old skool diehards.

Just my CD, it was released as a double pack with Myself and DDR on CD2, in about 1997 I think. You can download this one, I can't put DDR's up, You'll have to ask him if you want it, sorry abut that, but I have to save space.

The set was made in my studio in Brick Lane at the old Truman Brewery, which I always regretted moving out of. I had a lovely big room with huge windows looking over the side alley of the brewery and I ended up living there for a bit after we moved out of our house in Stamford Hill. Great area, I would move there again in a heartbeat. Even if just for the curry.

I did this set with a 66Mhz PC running Cubase Compact under Windows 95. I had one column of midi tracks in a 4 bar loop, my Akai S3200 sampler was loaded with vocals and drums and loops, these were all being played by the Cubase loops, The rest was hardware kit running in pattern mode synchronized to the PC by Midi clock, my Nord Modular was running drum synths and other patterns, The 909 doing the main drums, Two 303's with a bunch of different patterns, one doing basslines the other doing lead acid lines, The Sequential Pro One doing a bunch of random shit that I was just bashing into it and fading into the mix with delay and reverb FX on, and that was it. 

I ran through it once recording to DAT. The first 45 mins are completely live, then something went out of synch so I stopped and reset synch and finished it off. I had to make a little edit to join it back together, I was using Soundscape at the time for HD Audio so that took care of the edit and here's the final result.

These days this kind of thing is a piece of piss to set up on Ableton Live and you can do so much more with midi controllers now too, but 15 years ago it was a different story.

Enjoy.
