Mixes

A mix from LOIF for the Animix series makes perfect sense. Declan ( @loiflan ) has the most incredible knack for weaving deep, layered, magical musical journeys, and is fast growing a name for himself as one of the most exciting up and coming producers in Melbourne.

In recent times, we've seen a slew of recent @loiflan releases on compilations for labels such as @ute-rec x @amniote-editions, @purespacefm and @local_knowledge, and incredible mixes for @pipipigroup, @neurocrankk and @steeplejackrec. After attending Labyrinth festival in Japan together a few years ago as avid music fans, which I can safely say inspired us both immensely, it's been amazing to watch Declan grow and evolve as an artist over the last few years, and really develop a unique style. 

Keep an eye out for a Loif release on Animalia coming later this year.

Thanks again for the beautiful mix Declan!

For extended Q&A visit pi headquarters @ ------>pipipi.life<-------

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Hii I’m Mabel. I'm a 23 yr old DJ/producer & visual artist. I use she/her and currently I reside in Naarm, known as Melbourne in Australia. 

Describe your walk around where you live

Residential suburbia mixed with really random nature moments. I live in the same suburb I grew up in so it's very familiar and nostalgic. Extremely FLAT landscape until you come across the creek nearby that creates a surprising amount of cliffy bush walks which also is one of Melbourne's most popular doof locations.  

Last track you would want to hear before orgasming?

Ooooo I have to go with this sexy classic: 
What’s in Your Head - Disclosure

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

I want to see the scene down here reignite. We lost a lot of clubs over recent years and laws were introduced regarding illegal doofs. The general vibe has lowered a lot post covid. There’s a lot of reminiscing about the parties filled with sweaty dancers, naked bodies, insane outfits, etc. Parties that were just fun and freeing. I hope these things come back. They were definitely the reason I became obsessed with Djing.

Her name stems from the Turkish word for “different”, and @BASHKKA certainly is a uniquely captivating spirit. Her own true incarnation has been shaped by living a decade in New York; being inspired by “the wonderful POC Trans-women” of the Ballroom Scene, BASHKKA’s music serves and represents nothing less than “CUNT!” on the floor. The sensorial mix BASHKKA has put together for Skuggan is full of texture and rhythm patterns, bringing ultra-modern Future Sound of London-vibes to mind. Enjoy!

The 77th episode of Syntop Audio is presented by dj & producer @o-wells-frankfurtbass. Enjoy 1 hour of broken rhythms, bass-heavy club hitters, electrifying & banging grooves.

Now London-based and backed with support from Rhythm Section’s future proof programme, L daze curates sets which weave through genres including prog, trance, techno and bass. She had a london debut at The Cause with Keep Hush earlier this year. 

“Birmingham’s queen of high energy trance and techno influenced flavours” - Rhythm Section

“I’m super pleased to share this mix, it’s the result of some long digging sessions and features nearly all tracks from the 90’s and 00’s, some from rare CDs. 

It reflects the darker side of my sound, which i’m absolutely loving at the moment 🌘

I ended on an unreleased edit of a Medicine Drum track by my dad, he’s had a big influence on me so felt like the right place for it!”

Our next podcast release comes from Dublin based @fuaimdub resident @highingfly, who takes you from peak time to early morning with this bouncy yet mystical mix. 

Check out our interview with him below

Sean, he/him, Dublin

For the concept of this mix I wanted to put together a selection of tracks inspired by some of my favourite moments on the dance floor this year. Those times when the night stretches into early morning, and the energy is electric, yet the atmosphere is mystical and dark.

For the mix I tried to focus on the stripped back low-end driven sides of trance and progressive music, hopefully capturing the energy and atmosphere of those memorable sections of club nights.

As the mix unfolds, there's a progression in energy to play on being drawn deeper into those nights where you can feel that building sense of liveliness and anticipation.

+ 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 / 𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐛 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨?
@subsystem-transmissions and @sustain-release-nyc look incredible 

+ 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐮𝐩?
Unfortunately Dublin’s party scene is fairly limited because of the laws around opening hours which are hopefully changing soon, but I really like what @the_solace_space are doing as a party and a collective 

+ 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐉 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐮𝐩?
Have to big up my @fuaimdub companions @sandrewsmusic, @steckybone and @feargaloconnell, all amazing djs and people

+ 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 (𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞) 𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐛𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞?
Wasn’t a club experience but it would have to be @draaimolen this year, it was something very special to witness and I was riding a high after it for weeks

+ 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲?
Needs to have a crispy and punchy sound system, then some trippy minimal lighting, an energetic crowd with lots of space and probably somewhere in nature like a forest or a mountain range 

+ 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧?
How friendly everyone is, I didn’t realise this until someone mentioned it to me recently, but after doing a bit of travelling and thinking about it Dublin does have a special way about it when it comes to the people. There’s warmness and friendliness you experience on a night out that’s hard to find anywhere else

+ 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐢𝐱 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫?
The vocals of Paranoid London's "Paris Dub 1" over Mr. G's "Let Down (Badly)" – they complement each other perfectly.

+ 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧?
Gotta be Berlin, there’s just no place like it, although I’ve many places I still need to experience

+ 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐱?
Too many to choose from but three that came to mind are @agonis-amenthia live at transcendence, @yanmmxiv & @fred-czital at @monument-podcast, and @mikemidnight on @vortexvortexvortex
