Words by Quinn Whalley

"This was our first ever live gig as Paranoid London. It was late 2008 at the Warehouse Project in Manchester & the resident DJ, Krysko, took a risk & booked us knowing we’d never done it before. We were booked for 2 hours & we’d only released 2 records so we had to write a whole set from scratch. We didn’t finish writing it until 5 am the morning before the gig so we didn’t have time to rehearse it even once. It’s a hybrid live & DJ set. We bought Paris Brightledge over from Chicago to do some vocals & his friend Marshall Jefferson happened to live in Manchester & got up to do some backing vocals. You can hear the crowd in parts coming through Paris’ microphone. We’re shitting our pants but somehow we pulled it off & caught the bug for doing it live. Hope you enjoy it"

We premiere new music from Swiss bass boss Hermeth as he features on LA based Dionysian Mysteries for a 4-track EP. We host ‘Do Ma Ting’, an earth-shattering electro rhythm that is accompanied by glitchy hip-hop vocals and alarming synth lines.

Hermeth is one of the charismatic and encapsulating figures in contemporary electro &broken club. The masked DJ and producer delves into the powerful sides of electro, ghetto tech, and breaks music. He has been catching peoples attention since he first joined the Geneva-based Brainwaves label in 2019.

Hermeth delivers his long-awaited debut EP on Dionysian Mysteries, with remixes from AVALON and Buzz Kill. The Geneva hometown hero and Brainwaves Wunderkind has clearly etched out his own sound, which has become definitive in the electro scene, with a distinctive production approach. Infusing breaks with huge ripping analog bass lines and catchy vocals lending to its head thrashing charisma. Hermeth’s carefree “no fucks” attitude is contagious and effective on the dance floor, embodying the Dionysian Aesthetic.

We premiere ‘ Do Ma Ting’, a slamming electro groove that leaves flavours of Mala through to Drexciya as the Swiss eradicates any thought of a rule-book on his latest release. He expertly blends new-age club focussed electro with the dexterity of classic Detroit sound-design, while still also harnessing his hip-hop influences – ultimately providing a piece of work that bone-crushing embodiment of electro past and present, while still firmly holding his middle finger to any thought of musical conformity. This one should be played loud, and with venomous attitude.

This is the recording of a totally improvised hardware live performance. Nothing is prepared beforehand. You can hear the music being created and destroyed as it's happening and that was as exciting for me as it is for the audience. 

This is a very risky way to perform. 
As I step up to play I have nothing, I have to create the music there in that moment. The audience is participating in that risk and that adds to the energy and creates a unique atmosphere and sense of excitement. Understanding the technicalities of the machines I'm using is not important. What is important is the energy of music being created right there in that moment. That creates a far deeper connection between myself and the audience than I've ever experience with playing back pre recorded music.
