Next up in the Fast Forward Audio Series, we present: Ryan James Ford

During the 1990’s while growing up in western Canada, Ryan James Ford was introduced to electronic music through the local rave and club scene. He began to discover, study, and collect the music he heard at these parties which consisted of a mix of Jungle, UK hardcore, Techno,House, IDM, and ambient.
Fast forward many years later to Berlin, where Ryan and his productions found a solid home on the legendary Clone records from Rotterdam and has other production’s on Anetha’s Mama Told Ya, Ida’s SÄVY, Marcel Dettmann’s MDR, Answer Code Request’s ACR, Dream Ticket, and his own label SHUT. PLUR is the new record label from Ryan James Ford. The inaugural release 'Ripping EP' begins a new path of club focused tracks from himself and other like-minded contemporaries. PLUR will act as a tool to discover new energy on modern dance floors.

Ryan’s sets and productions are rich with inspiration from his time spent living in Calgary where he had interests not only in electronic music but also in hip hop, post rock, reggae, jazz, experimental, and even some interest in metal. He began experimenting with production in the early 2000’s but it wasn’t until 2013, with a move to Berlin, that he started investigating his musical capabilities seriously.
Even though two decades have passed since Ryan’s introduction to electronic music, his love for early Warp, Metalheads, Metroplex, Novamute, Skam, Downwards, etc. can still be heard resoundingly clear in the strength and versatility of his productions and sets. The future will see Ford continue to play out and release on labels that share his like-minded affiliation and roots in the electronic music community.

Fast Forward Audio Series #93: Ryan James Ford

@mmaemm, DJ & Co-founder of @la-taquinerie, Maemm gives us a lesson of techno. A one-hour journey where intricate rhythms collide with hypnotic melodies.

"I recorded this podcast several months ago, spending a lot of time on it. It was a period when I was questioning myself a lot about what I really liked, what I wanted to share, and what made me passionate. I eventually treated this mix as a material that I could craft. 
I'm thrilled to be able to release it on Kluster records. Kluster collective is for me a wonderful space for artistic experimentation that helped me develop a lot as an artist. 
A big thank you to them and the great work they do for the Parisian scene. I hope you will like the podcast, and see you soon on the dancefloor ❤️"

A week after our Mostra performance in Barcelona, we played a 30-minute live set in Brooklyn at The Lot Radio with our friend @0sebo. The material came from the second half of our Mostra show: an ambient intro, two unreleased downtempo tracks, and Manila to close the set.

Not sure where the music I make would go, guess I’ll leave that for you to decide.

Very quick Rd8 with Korg R3. I needed to leave the house, fuck.

Piece Of Shit, who fucking cares.

We invited Peter Van Hoesen who is one of our personal heroes. He creates some of the most complex and futuristic high fidelity techno and is the mastermind behind the amazing Time To Express label. 

We hope you enjoy those 60minutes of carefully selected and blendet psychedelic techno perfection.
