Hoi Polloi is delighted to announce our latest gift from we, the people, to you the people - The Hoi Polloi Podcast Series. 

Kicking things off is one of our nearest and dearest and a true gentleman of Melbourne Techno, Ranjit Nijjer. 
 
With nearly fifteen years involvement in Melbourne’s underground techno scene, Ranjit can lay claim to contributing to a few special moments in its history. Best known to many as the man behind iconic club night Technoir, Ranjit is also a regular at other Melbourne Techno insitutions including Machine and Melbourne Techno Collective. 

Not only is he a gentleman and a scholar, Ranjit is also a deeply considered sound theorist. With the ultimate precision, he gets inside the music and somehow unpacks it; you can hear this in his mix as a DJ and in his production as an artist.

Ranjit's debut EP, Ruins, is now available on Machine Label: https://machinelabel.bandcamp.com/album/ruins

podcast 178 by Sonic Identity

Machine resident Simon Slieker presents the second mix for our 'music for isolation' streams.  
Dive in head first to this excursion of sound
 
SIMON SLIEKER  :: 7 quick lockdown questions  

1. Action, Drama, Romance or Documentary movie? 

Whichever one has a sweeping epic hero. Unfortunately this means I have dubious taste in cinema, lacking nuance, eschewing complexity, and constantly craving something to believe in. I’m increasingly disappointed. 

2. Coffee, Tea or Alcohol? 

At the moment tea. That’s the morning ritual. But I don’t really like tea, it’s too watery and insipid. But coffee is brutal, so I like to roll off it periodically. Hence the tea. As for alcohol, if you’d asked me last lockdown, it was all about Damned Murphy and his crazy specials, hmmm a spirit, all the fun of the mixed case of wine, may well get this six pack as well, oh and these ciders, and on the way out that shopping trolley with random bottles was so much fun; wow $1.39 for a bottle of citrus stout: bargain! Bleaugh. This time I’ve stopped altogether. Dry. So the tea has become quite the ‘high’. High tea. 

3. Sleep in or get up early 

Ah this is becoming about the contrasting lockdowns: 1 and 2. Lockdown 1 I didn’t sleep, I stayed up the whole time. Lockdown 2 I’m going to bed early and have made a surprise discovery: getting up early. Which sounds bad, like you’re being punished. But it turns out it means you’re getting enough sleep. I’ve not experienced this before so it didn’t make any sense. It’s amazing you should try it. 

4. Favourite Sunday afternoon listening album 

I don’t have one.

5. What art movement describes you the best?

Pre-Raphaelite.

6 Opera, Country, Folk or Black Death Metal

Maybe folk. But I think you’ve chosen the four exceptionally problematic and compromised genres there. Were they chosen especially for me? I’m going with folk because when I was 16 I decided to become quite good with a harmonica and I think that had something to do with folk, or Bob Dylan at least. 

7. Tell us something no one knows about you?

I don’t have a favourite listening album. Oh that cat’s out of the bag. Um, I don’t want to alarm anyone, but I think I’m starting to go bald.

Machine isoStream 02 :: Simon Slieker

Melbourne techno stalwart Ranjit Nijjer lays down some deep hypnotic grooves for stage four of the Machine weekly isoStream series. 

Ranjit Nijjer :: 7 Quick lockdown questions

1. Action, Drama, Romance or Documentary movie? 
"I’ve only managed to get through a couple of movies throughout both lockdowns; action would probably be my top pick of those three."

2. Coffee, Tea or Alcohol? 
"A couple of strategically placed coffees throughout the day without fail." 

3. Sleep in or get up early 
"Due to having young kids; it’s always, always, always get up early." 

4. Favourite Sunday afternoon listening album 
"Loom Dream by Leif has been a regular in the last 12 months." 

5. What art movement describes you the best? 
"Surrealism"

6 Opera, Country, Folk or Black Death Metal 
"I’d probably have to say folk but all of those aren’t in my regular rotation."

7. Tell us something no one knows about you?
"According to Spotify, my most listened to album of 2019 was Dean Martin’s ‘Italian Love Songs’."

Ranjit Nijjer - Machine Isostream Mix

Machine isoStream 04 :: Ranjit Nijjer

Machine resident Emmymaie packs a punch with her isoStream mix featuring a selection tracks from Machine Label artists over the past 10 years.  

Emmymaie :: 7 Quick lockdown questions

1. Action, Drama, Romance or Documentary movie?
e) footy replays ;D*

2. Coffee, Tea or Alcohol?
Coffee - though if you’re talking instant, I’ll pass. I’ve lately had to temper my caffeine intake; finding great organic decaf coffee beans has helped, but I have also developed a renewed appreciation for pots of herbal tea, most varieties (except chamomile - bleugh ;)*, in many combos... As for alcohol: having, by my early-mid-40s, drunk enough for three or four lifetimes, I now no longer drink booze (I know, huh? :)*. It’s not a hard “no”; I’ll have the occasional vodka-cranberry / Moscow Mule / Frangelico on ice with lime / etc. whilst working at Machine (for instance) but the last time that happened, well... ;/*

3. Sleep in or get up early?
Definitely the former; in fact, I sleep in so hard I’m basically noctural. And I’ve been that way since I was a kid. It’s not that I don’t like mornings; I do, and (one reason) I love our dance music culture (is) for the opportunity it affords to see the sunrise after staying up all night!

4. Favourite Sunday afternoon listening album
Techno (any). Or footy replays xD*

5. What art movement describes you best?
Hmmm, maybe Fauvism? For the colour and whimsy...

6. Opera, Country, Folk or Black Death Metal?
After techno, I like all those almost equally; metal probably wins (being most like techno! ;P*) \nn/-

7. Tell us something no one knows about you
You know, I can’t think of a single thing about myself that isn’t known by at least one other person... If I was a book, I’d be open ;o*
