Luke Cohlen at Dekmantel Selectors 2021

https://soundcloud.com/lukecohlen is a tastemaking selector from Utrecht. The Stranded FM mainstay and former Cultfarm resident has been a notable figure in the local music scene for years, and has shared his love of obscure synth gems and wild rhythms anywhere from SoHaSo nights to Dekmantel Selectors. For his entry into our podcast series, Luke delivers a meticulously crafted showcase of his deeper, more hypnotic side. There's much to discover here, from the beautiful blends to the little details in the selections. Throughout this mix, a snippet of guitar or a loosely played cymbal will catch your ear, while the rhythms underneath shift and shuffle uneasily, keeping you on your toes for the duration. Just beautiful.

Aural Conduct

Le boss du label Aural Conduct, rédacteur pour BAKK et rubber, nous fait dériver sur une sélection de downtempo, fourth world, EBM et dub.

NIEMANDSLAND w/ Luke Cohlen (2022-11-23)

Interface is for interaction. But for this episode, Skalm (@dans-market) has made a different kind of interaction and invited Utrecht-based Luke Cohlen (@lukecohlen) to create his version of interface. Moved by his multiform yet consistent sound as well as his experimental record label – aural conduct – she found connection through their shared philosophies of interfacing between contrasts, or as Luke aptly describes “music evoking dualities.” Tune in for an hour of concentrated exploration.

aural conduct is a record label focusing on music that emphasises process and detail and provides an open, experimental platform to artists. It channels music evoking dualities: zeitgeist and timelessness, melancholia and optimism. Poetics, through sound. The name aims to imply and serve as a reminder that music is a form of exchange that can channel sincere and emotive complexity, beyond language.

Threaded with underlying tension, Luke Cohlen spirals across disparate styles. Radical at heart, he seeks to pleat sounds, allowing the rhythmic and abstract to align and dance together. Whether at the club or via regular radio appearances, including his residency slot on Amsterdam’s Echobox, listening to Luke play is like witnessing a text unfold, where abrasive sonics unravel and are recomposed. This research into diverse musical realms is translated through his record label, aural conduct, an open, experimental platform for artists that capture both zeitgeist and timelessness.

@lukecohlen

For the next episode of Knekelhuis we've invited Utrecht based, but intergalactic in his mind, Luke Cohlen. We know Luke as a key player in the Dom city underground scene, not only as a stand-out DJ and fanatic digger, but as a pusher of Stranded FM and core member of the intimate electronic music collective Cultfarm.  His sets always present a signature style - rhythmic, trippy, and evocative. For our 60th episode Luke prepared a raw and autonomous mix, interpreting the ethos of Knekelhuis. By playing looming and twisted electronics that he finds a perfect fit with the label. A blend of spoken word and fine  intersections between wave, post-punk, dub and electro, that he holds so dear.

Knekelhuis # 60 - Luke Cohlen

New podcast by https://soundcloud.com/lukecohlen, a fanatic addict from Utrecht, gentle and genuine fella too. He's a killer dj with monk style discipline. He throws events as part of Cultfarm, works for Stranded FM, an unconventional online radio, and writes liner notes and texts a.o. for record label BAKK. Here he fuses wavy blue devils with frantic avant-garde rhythms… like a strange creature, 'half fish, half man', flipping wildly its fins and dancing on too much legs and feet, but at any time with sharp focus and clear lucidity.
« Dashing endlessly, thoughts scatter — clarity and friction, relief and tension, joy and melancholia. »

NOSE JOB 20 — LUKE COHLEN

Luke Cohlen, active as a DJ, programmer and writer, operating out of his hometown Utrecht, The Netherlands. Luke is one of the pivotal folks behind internetradio Stranded FM, for which he organises events and collaborations spanning across the cityscape's musical and social dynamics, and where he hosts his introspective listening show De Wachtkamer.
