Malcolm up next for the pod! The Parisian artist who now resides in London has served up a high tempo mix, around the 160 realm, switching between half-time and edits he's made specifically for the mix.
Club heavy this one, dig in!  We also caught up with him for a little chat, check it below -

AM: Yo! What you been up to recently? 

Hey pals, how's everything? Recently I moved from Paris to London, what a mad city innit? So I've been meeting a bunch of lovely people, been to a few really good concerts and exhibitions, and been eating great food despite what my fellow frenchs might say. 

AM: How and where did you record the mix? Was there a theme or anything behind it? 

I've always been fascinated by contrastful music, hard but sad, dark but exhilarating, club but introspective... I think that define a lot the music I produce or release on my label. So this mix is focusing on fast but slow stuff, this 160 bpm / halfstep rhythmic that I've been playing a lot these last couple of years. It features a bunch of unreleased and original edits I made recently, some just for that mix, as well as some upcoming and unreleased tracks from friends around the world. 

AM: We love your label, GWR. What’s the thoughts behind the curation of it? 

Aw thank you, appreciate that. I leave boundaries pretty open on the curation of the label, but I think somehow it's always about musical crossovers. But even tho some projects are building bridges into indie rock, or modern hip hop or whatever, it's always deeply electronic, music from kids that got brainwashed by too much Gorillaz, Prodigy or Kylie Minogue during their teenage years. Also there's definitely a constant tongue-in-cheek tone, some love for provocation, and sick ass graphic design. 

AM: What’s next for you in 2022?  

I've got a couple of remixes and tunes to come for various artists and labels this winter, and am currently finishing my 3rd EP that might pop up before summer, I'll send you the links. But in 2022 I also want to make a trip to Scotland, dive into Ingmar Bergman's filmography, make a bunch of barbecues with my friends, and maybe get myself a Nintendo Switch.
