The Pleasure Presents… NIGELTHREETIMES & MAACHEW BENTLEY with KOKI (JPN) @ The Lot Radio 09-17-2024

Stepping in our podcast series this week, London DJ and Neighbourhood chief operator Tasha graces us with a versatile, shape-shifting helluva mix she holds the secret to. Keeper of a sound amplitude that sees her run the gamut from Latin music-inflected techno to proper industrial, Birmingham-style tempi, through hardcore-friendly outbursts and out-there acid mind trips, Tasha has us bedazzled with every bar, wrong-footing any expectation in the process. And just like a good DJ does, she weaves a totally unique web of sound for us to get caught in, cohesively braiding the kind of electronic journey you can not but want to return to. Hop in for a much addictive rollercoaster ride across Tasha’s vortical headspace.

The Darkest Hour

Mike Dean, one of the game's most prolific producers and its reigning master keyboardist, spent a weekend in the Moog Music Factory.

Surrounded by analog synthesizers and immersed in an environment of experimentation, Mike selected 6x Mother-32 synthesizers to create his sonic palette and a Voyager XL as his master controller. 

In just 48 hours, this is what he synthesized...  here is link to video of him creating this epic piece  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evi12DFoPrc          Art : Liath by Louise Donegan

Copenhagen-based DJ and producer Ingrate is ready with his debut EP ‘With A System In Mind’ out 14th of February via Copenhagen label Anyines.

Buy here: https://anyines.bandcamp.com/album/with-a-system-in-mind

Having previously roamed the club scene as Kid Antoine, this EP kicks off the moniker Ingrate, presenting a more mysterious and playful world of sonics; radcool speaker stack music, designed “with a system in mind”. The four tracks of the EP continue in the path of the only Ingrate release so far - 2018’s “Crypto Poser/The Enigma" out via Oli XL’s W-I (now Bloom) label. But it’s as if Ingrate is bringing an even quirkier funk to the club this time. Like a 2020 version of Mr. Oizo, if only a little sexier.

The connection to friend and collaborator Oli XL is clear in the sonics of the EP. Both of them masters of teasing the club - making you smile on the dancefloor. Touching on the the banalities and clichés of club music while still seeking new sound territories, the record is a slight tongue-in-cheek, but optimistic take on the dance music scene of the coming decade. Play it in the club, if you dare.

‘Imp’ takes point with it’s babbling percussion, hammering it’s beliefs firmly in steel against a backdrop of falling, redemptive pads. The jealous, hollow sounding cymbal voices of ‘Deceived’ counterpoint their own thoughts of despair. ‘Hoax’ is a sleight of hand spectacle; a svengali trick deck is conjured up and away again, as at the hand of a deception artist in the middle of a thick smoke screen. In the midst of it all, the listener’s only trustworthy companion becomes a mischievous “catch me if you can" synth; teasing, but still leading them, on their way through this world of mirages. 
The EP’s grand finale is ‘Yourself’ - a funhouse of the mind, full of blinding strobes, distorting mirrors and winking figures.

The world is strange, buckle up for the ride.

With A System In Mind

Ingrate - Imp

Hailing from the colorful streets of Tokyo, Japan Koki Sugiyama has worn many hats in the world of music and production (at least the hats that fit on top of his pineapple shaped hair-do). In 2003 Koki formed a Japanese rock band in Tokyo and was the front man as vocalist until 2004. Accepting the downfalls of managing and maintaining a 5-piece band, Koki realized it was best that he continue on his musical path solo. 

In 2005 Koki was introduced to DJ-ing and electronic music production from a Toronto Native who was playing in Tokyo at the time. Exploring the sounds and styles of this musical genre, Koki began practicing and playing at Local venues in Tokyo and growing more and more in love with this scene. After graduating from Tamagawa University in Tokyo where he studied computer and hardware engineering, he moved to Toronto to pursue music. 

As Koki got acquainted with Toronto’s underground scene at venues such as Footwork, he quickly found himself a midst a social circle of talented DJ’s and producers who he would grow and work with. Koki continued his musical education at Trebas for Audio Engineering and after completing this program; he teamed up with Bohemian Yacht Club Music as label assistant manager. 

So far in his career Koki has played venues such as Coda, Footwork, Air (Tokyo) and Womb (Tokyo) as well as Toronto’s best summer series Electric Island and the very special little Sunday social down at Cherry Beach. Koki’s musical style ranges from funky jazz-infused deep house to more upbeat tech house and techno. His versatile sound has landed him gigs playing alongside a range of world-renowned artists. 
He’s played with artists such as DJ Tennis, Magda, Marc Houle, Tiga, Guido Schneider, Noah Pred, Greg Gow, Soul Clap, Navid Izadi, Bob Moses, Gui Boratto, Max Cooper, Catz ‘N Dogz, Noir, and Masomenos. Koki currently is working on a few projects in the studio, including an EP that is set to release March 31st on Bohemian Yacht Club Music.
