"Cold Crystal Timbres" recalls the immediate past. Hight-tech emotions and synthetic unnaturalness: When sonic hybridities were echoing early 2000s pop.

Once a haven for nerds and enthusiasts, the internet became accessible to many in the early 2010s. Utopias linked to the early internet, such as that of an anonymous and democratic cyberspace, are finally being displaced by a neoliberal Silicon Valley ideology that manifests itself in platforms like Facebook and Amazon.

Rebecca Fuxen and Martin Rovan’s mixtape "Cold Crystal Timbres" pays tribute to the music that emerged from this structural change and aesthetically relates to it. This hybrid music genre, which developed between 2010 and 2015, is characterized by both cold digital sounds and nostalgic pop references. It is embedded in collectives, loose associations, labels, events, or curatorial projects that network primarily through platforms such as SoundCloud and Myspace. Although this music takes place mostly in traditional club settings, it is transnational, digital networking practices that create political activism and solidarity: many collectives establish platforms for DJs, producers, and activists. They reclaim the white- and male-dominated club scene and emphasize the queer context of its genesis and the central role of BPoC within club music.

Listening to the digital, high-resolution sounds of the time one comes to grasp the intersections of digital everyday culture and music as well as the influence that technological developments have on the realities of the artists’ lives.

Christiane Øyen aka séverine (she/they) is an eclectic producer and DJ stemming from Long Beach, California who has been meddling with a multitude of genres such as hard techno, trance, hardstyle, experimental post-club, and ambient. Their sets reach the outer edges of what is commonly considered dancefloor-ready music, skillfully mixing the most underground fringes with mainstream pop influences as showcased in a large collection of edits and blends such as the viral hit LOOK HOW HARD IM INTO YOU mixing Ariana Grande & Barker, as well as Katy Perry & Torus, Megan Thee Stallion & M.E.S.H, Portishead, Ecco2k, and many more.

Founder of the LA metro area-based rave collective and netlabel Xtended Release, she has thrown over a dozen DIY gatherings in LA and NYC since late 2018 featuring esteemed guest DJs such as Baby Blue, Coucou Chloe, Jasmine Infiniti, Dis Fig, Ariel Zetina, S280F & more, and released a benefit compilation for Street Watch LA, "The Limit Xperience," in May 2020 featuring local talent such as Maral & C Powers.

séverine has also realized a dazzling assortment of tracks on cutting edge labels around the world, such as the postrock-esque Kaskade deconstruction NXTSTEP on Liepzig's Cime, the mindblowing, tempo shifting slowstyle/donk hybrid banger DJ5L1F3 on Montreal's Audio Bambino, and an intimate, ethereal ambient rearrangement of Daniel Bedingfield with STAYINYRARMS on Brooklyn's spinneret.

In addition to DJing, producing & rave organizing, séverine also runs the popular Instagram meme page deejayaffirmations alongside fellow transfem artists Estoc and Archangel. Today, we're honored to host a 30-minute long mixed selection by the American artist appearing as GUESTMIX#83 on our series.
