Simas Okas, hidden away in the depths of a murky swamp, is trying to create a new species - a combination of natural and synthetic, capable of adapting and thriving in the harshest conditions. He becomes subject of his own creation and is transformed . . . Chasing down a magical, mystical, non-defined apparition, like a ghost or a shadow, not necessarily evil, but certainly other-worldly. From reeds to smudge, everything's a dream. Much beauty in the swamp, if only you look...

HOT MIX 5  ‘THE UNTOLD STORY OF CHICAGO HOUSE’

In 1981 Lee Michaels founded the Hot Mix 5 a DJ team originating from 
Chicago consisting of Mickey ‘Mixin’ Oliver, Farley ‘Jackmaster Funk’, Ralphi ‘Rockin’ Rosario, Kenny ‘Jammin’ Jason and Scott ‘Smokin’ Silz.

The Chicago House Music scene exploded as the Hot Mix 5 show and WBMX became the No1 Radio show in Chicago, by airing a new sound called House Music. Collectively with their unique turntable skills and radio persona a new genre emerged, whilst they broke nearly every Chicago House record we know today. 

From the HM5 show the first true superstar DJ’s emerged and are credited with
turning Chicago & the rest of the world onto this new sound. 
The individuals featured here are pivotal in laying the foundations for the likes of Tiesto and David Guetta to dominate the world stage today.

They went onto launch Hot Mix 5 records, a stunning label with a dazzling roster of artists releasing worldwide hit after hit, that have stood the test of time. This trail blazing label will see its catalogue released on London’s Midnight Riot, featuring tracks, remixes, edits & collaborations with the likes of Larry Heard, DJ Pierre, Ashley Beedle, Ron Basejam, Severino, Pete Herbert, Rayko, Yam Who?, Kiko Navarro, Leo Zero, Fingerman, 80’s Child, Jaegerossa & many more!

The city of Chicago recognized the Hot Mix 5's contribution to the creation of House Music and honoured them by presenting each member with an individual street named after them and in addition a street called 'Hot Mix 5 Way’.

DC Promo Tracks #201: Maricopa "Savannas"

Last time we heard from the Growing Bin, Basso was sat at the water‘s edge, trousers rolled up, toes in the tide, savouring a Falanghina while Eleventeen Eston went with the wave. Now we move from the shoreline to the ocean shelf, led on an underwater adventure by young Parisian Shelter. Where previ- ous releases have seen the synth-obsessed Frenchman take his inspiration from Caribbean rhythms or Balearic attitudes, this marine missive sees Shelter turn to the lavish world of the library, creating his an alternate score to Jean Faurez’ 1960 documentary short.
More submersible than snorkel, our journey begins in the very dark of the deep, mystical harp trills echoing through the inky blackness, picking up the bioluminescent shimmer of an Abraliopsis Squid. Gradually we make our way into the light, cruising past shoals of silver scales and underwater forests. ‚Immersion’ offers a placid, percolating rhythm and billowing pads, providing sonic symmetry for the dancing leaves, while the spheric soundscape of ‘La Vie A L’Ombre’ bubbles away like an underwater volcano. The optimistic ambience of ‘Plenitude Azotee’, brimming with delicate melody and glistening sequences, perfectly captures the wide-eyed wonder of a reef dive, before drifting into the serenity of ‘Parade’, an aquatic acquaintance of A.R.T. Wilson’s ‘Overworld’. A brief foray into shark fin funk sees out the A-side, before we’re back amid the beauty of the ocean floor; ‘Variation Abyssale II’ echoing the album opener but with even more poetry. The exotic and otherworldly sine waves of ‘Dans La Jungle De Varech’ simultaneously sound like a rainforest canopy, alien landscape and coral microcosm, expanding our horizons nicely ahead of the adrenaline rush of ‘Hors D’Haleine’. Shelter then sets us at ease with the tidal tonality and subtle shuffle of ‘Fumeurs Noirs’, a sublime synthetic suite, then leaves us to marvel at the soft focus splendour of ‘Synthii Outro’.
This is Jules Verne by way of Vangelis, just grab your goggles and take the plunge...

"Görünmez Hava" is the first track taken from Anadol's "Uzun Havalar".

We feel honoured to release this extraordinary beautiful music on vinyl. Release date is May 17, pre-order is up: https://anadol.bandcamp.com/

Now do yourself a favour and buy this record!

Anadol (@altinkasetcilik) is a psychedelic synth folk project by Gözen Atila, a Turkish sound artist and photographer based in Berlin. Her third album Uzun Havalar is based on collective improvisations of middle eastern folk songs called „uzun hava“. They turn out as rich, atmospheric synth ballads. A diverse roster of improvising musicians creates their fascinating complexity. Anadol recorded them during extensive sessions in Istanbul. You can hear drummers laughing and playing guitars, composers howling, announcements in French and screams in no language, record collectors playing oscillators, and trumpets through spacious echoes.
Anadol represents Gözen Atila’s liberation from a rather academic approach to electronic composition which she pursued during her music technology studies in Istanbul. She calls her education the „darkness of serious music“ where she first tried to belong, then to break free with the help of lo-fi synth pop. As a producer of radio plays and an expert field recording artist, she has developed a distinct sense of timing, editing and sound design. Her Anadol project walks in the footsteps of lone synth experimentalists like Bruce Haack and The Space Lady with their childlike curiosity for electronic sounds, pushing the boundaries of minimal equipment. On Uzun Havalar she translates her experimental background into these floating folk ballads.

Bonar Bradberry - Carlos the Jackal

Clear Path Ensemble is the neu project and brainchild of Wellington jazz and sonic arts graduate Cory Champion. Also producing left field house and techno under the name Borrowed CS, Clear Path Ensemble is Cory’s first offering to the jazz gods. Having spent many years playing drums alongside some of New Zealand’s most talented musicians in the revered Wellington jam session scene this release is an amalgamation of the energy & spirit that the Wellington scene encompasses.
Walking over the blurred lines of psychedelia and spiritual jazz and taking cues from planetary rhythms and celestial oddities, CPE invokes a higher sense of self through the transformative power of sound. In it’s truest essence these are a collection of cosmic compositions and a release that in our opinion is one of the heaviest to ever emerge from the New Zealand neo-jazz scene.
