This... this... is just insanely good, can I have a dancefloor please

What a set! what a mane! hats off to the Babicz and ADR👊

For nearly 30 years Robert Babicz has been producing. From his early days as Rob Acid through to 2010's absolute dancefloor monster 'Remote Kiss' and beyond. He has a style all of his own, Babiczstyle.... Prolific and a master of his craft in every sense of the word, producing, mastering and releasing his own work. 

It was an absolute honor when he agreed to deliver an ADR livestream. Recorded from his home in Malta this is something very special indeed. No track listing for this one as in the words of the man himself "All tracks are mine and mostly unrelease so a world premiere". Legend....

@nightmares-on-wax “I made this mix after my interview and conversation with Ralph Moore for Mixmag, and it's inspired by lots of the music and references we were discussing. I wanted to do a mix for Mixmag you wouldn’t usually get going through soul, funk, reggae, disco, R&B and house. All the songs are tunes I’ve been digging this past year during the pandemic. I had a lot of fun digging records for this mix and recorded it live in my studio The Other Ship in Ibiza.”

Tracklist

The Cover Mix: Nightmares On Wax

We are excited to be able to showcase the eleventh Far Blue concept, put together by @Pedrocapelossi. 

In addition to his own stellar productions, which can be found in this mix as well, Pedro never ceases to tell a powerful story in his sets. His work over recent times has been heavily influenced by the pandemic, the war and the past winter, resulting in a rather dark mood and a more introspective approach. The winter seems to be endless, but there is always hope in the end.

We feel like Pedro has wonderfully told his story through this mix, and we hope you feel the same way after this 1 hour and 25 minutes long deep and dubby interpretation of Far Blue.

The first Far Blue concept of 2023 is delivered by @boaksi. 

“This mix was recorded digitally and on vinyl in wintery Zürich. It features past and present favourites of mine, as well as future sounds I wish to take the direction of my music into. It is inspired by some of the great memories I had in 2022. I was very lucky to work with many artists that have influenced me for a long time, and I was overjoyed by the moments created together with my friends on project indigo. As 2023 comes around, I hope to continue experiencing these special times.”

For the next Far Blue concept, @aspetuck has taken the time to put together his perception of Far Blue. Apart from being a very kind person, he is also a very talented producer and DJ who puts lots of emotion into his productions and mixes - and this mix is no different.

"This set was recorded in my living room in upstate New York on a snowy Saturday in March with two Pioneer CDJ 2000NXSs & an Allen & Heath Xone:92 mixer. After making pancakes for the kiddo, I jumped right into it. I got back from a couple of days in London at the end of February which has me feeling particularly inspired & focused. DJing and making music has always been a really important form of creative relief for me - being a parent & stay at home dad, it feels more important than ever these days so I was really excited to record this one. I decided to play a bunch of unreleased Aspetuck tunes in addition to a bunch of stuff that I'm really into right now."

Presenting the forty-fourth Far Blue concept, we are excited to feature the talented Alex Albrecht. Effortlessly blending organic and electronic sounds, Alex has curated an engaging one-hour mix that encapsulates his take on Far Blue.

'Wishes dance on the breeze, 
In the bower, time finds ease. 
Night sky, a celestial shower, 
Reverie, in this midnight hour.'

Sharing a selection of music that has been put together by Lord Of The Isles is something we are beyond excited for. To showcase his perception of Far Blue, he has compiled a mix that conveys a limitless feeling like a far off horizon. Although Lord Of The Isles is an inspiring producer, he decided to take a different approach. 'Mirage Mountains' contains none of his own productions, but he has selected beautiful tracks from other talented artists only such as John Hopkins, Mary Yalex and Our Lady Of The Flowers.

"A limitless far off horizon with texture and noise. A distorted haze of the farthest away places. Making them seem almost imaginary."

For the next interpretation of Far Blue, we have Belgium's Kim Kenis who has carefully weaved together a selection of tracks that represents a more clubby perspective of the concept. Recollecting dance moves. The podcast was made so you could move, as the set was recorded on Kim's home setup when she came back from a night out in Amsterdam. The mood was there, the flow as well. 

We are very much looking forward to having Kim and her flow over on the 24th of May for Pintai x Far Blue at Borisov, but for now we'll be enjoying this glimpse of what's to come.

'Never stop moving'

A Far Blue concept by Kim Kenis - 'Philosophic Paraphrases'

This week's Far Blue concept is crafted by the four friends of the UK-based collective and record label, Simpler Times. This one has been long in the making, and the final result is a truly special mix.

‘Reflections Of Things To Come’ is a carefully crafted hour long journey that showcases Simpler Times take on the Far Blue concept. It is inspired by the idea of reflecting on the past while dreaming of the future.

‘We wanted to do something special for this mix, so we decided to record a set made up of unreleased Simpler Times music. We’ve included some older unreleased stuff that has never seen the light of day before alongside some brand new music we produced especially for the mix. We wanted to combine the old with the new to mirror the concept of the mix.’

'What lies between memories and dreams?'
