Indie, Lo-Fi & Prog

'Fase Luna', the forthcoming album from LA Priest, was born out of time spent in locations far removed from the West Coast metropolis that springs to mind upon hearing the artist otherwise known as Sam Eastgate’s alias. 

Recorded in Mexico as well as the rainforests of Costa Rica, the hazy, pop-imbued release takes thematic cues from both places, with Eastgate’s original plans for the album reshaped into something deeper and bolder through these experiences.  For the Crack Mix series, Eastgate looks back at some earlier sources of inspiration for the new record – largely the work of prolific Indian composer, Ilaiyaraaja. 

“This mix showcases the electronic side of his work in the 80s and early 90s along with some of my own experiments with sampling and paying homage to this music.”

Crack Mix 496: LA Priest

Bugged Out turns 30 next year, and this mix is made up of 30 records which represents each of those years from 1994 to 2023.

Myself, Johnno and Lemmy from Bugged Out all reflected on various points in the clubs history and the artists who have helped shape it, and chose records which felt are a representation of the sound of the club, not just historically, but where it stands now. 

Pulling together music from different eras and sounds was a bit of a challenge, and whilst some may not be the biggest track of their respective year - a few will be seen as classics and a healthy amount are perhaps obscure in relation - but to my ears they still sound as brilliant now as they did upon release. 

In a bizarre twist of fate, the oldest record from 1994 is mixed in with the newest from this year, which wasn't intentional. Clocking in at 2 and a half hours, the mix was recorded live in a single take, here in London.

I spoke with Mixmag about my relationship with Bugged Out! which you can read here: https://mixmag.net/feature/erol-alkan-30-years-bugged-out-mix-drumsheds

I play for Bugged Out at Drumsheds this Saturday, set time: 7pm in the 'Y Room'. Hope to see you there, looks like it's going to be a good one.. Final tickets: https://bit.ly/3LBDtY4

A psychotropic induced journey in order to have a deeper understanding of oneself isn't always the most graceful experience. It takes pealing back the membranes of the ego until you are completely naked. It is ferocious beauty at its best.

LA Priest ~ Interviewed on 2SER's Static

The new project from @simonhaiduk, Agarikon, is named after an ancient medicinal mushroom found in old-growth forests. Like this mushroom which filters and transforms energy into medicine, this music project aims for a similar process as expressive medicine for Simon's soul. Moving outside the constraints of genre-specifics, he aims to use this project for more creative exploration.
