Carrot Green & Trepanado — live from Boiler Room at Dekmantel Festival 2022.

Carrot Green & Trepanado | Dekmantel 2022 | Friday

Nueen has been mad busy in the last two years. The Barcelona-based Mallorcan has put out three albums of beautifully quiet and unhurried ambient. Each one has unfolded with its own intimate sense of narrative and showcased deft craftsmanship with both synth and guitar. The tunes drawn on the atmosphere of Nueen's home island so fits in with what you might call Balearic, but very much on its own terms. They are warm and gentle but underpinned with a melancholy that makes them all the more engaging. 

There is plenty of that on show across the opening of this week's podcast. Roomy arrangements are detailed with only the wispiest of pads but slowly a rhythm begins to emerge. It's dubby and dreamy and transports you out to sea on a sonic life raft that eventually sinks to the ocean floor. From there you roll along on supple drums, wispy pads drift by and shards of light pierce the surface. It is a perfect soundtrack to slowly awaken your soul on a lazy morning.

"I wanted to do something that was a bit more downtempo techno with an oldskool house vibe. Keeping it, sleazy, sexy. A lot of the tracks I've enjoyed playing out over the summer too."

@dreamcastmoe music for the soul effortlessly blends genres and BPMs

"I wanted to capture what it was like to see me live. I set Jayda up, made sure she felt good getting up on stage – sang the last song to the crowd. I wanted something that was a look into what it is to hang out with me when I’m performing live – everybody has a good time, everybody feels safe and loved, you know what I’m saying?"

We first caught wind of maya q earlier this year though her sophomore release for London imprint All Centre. Anyone with a penchant for hot footing it to a takeaway after a late night booze up will have had a chuckle at the title of the first track. Merrily, I hastened to the chicken shoppe / beno (soft) marked maya's second outing on the well-respected label, following 2021's I just wanna. 

Both EPs, along with the releases' predecessor on Scuffed Recordings, showcase her experimental approach to creating swung rhythms, low end frequencies and syncopated drum patterns inspired by jungle, UK bass, breaks and UKG, but with her own unique melodic and playful touch.

When maya isn't making music, she DJing as part of the Co-Select crew alongside the likes of TSUNIMAN, Airali and Will Hofbauer, the latter of whom released her most recent musical outing, break rev, on his Third Place imprint.

We got her on board for a mix that threads together the music she loves from poppy electronics to ethereal jungle, liquid DnB and playful vox-soaked rhythms.

Mantissa Mix 375: DJ Split [10 Years of Mantissa]

"I made a mix for Mantissa, yeay!  it’s driving, bouncy, proggy, and percussive. It brings together everything that currently gets me moving on the dancefloor. Hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do."

Next up in the 10 year celebrations, runa & asha lead us through the bass-driven wilderness with a live recording of their excellent three hour opener from Montreal's Exposé Noir.

"This 3-hour recording is taken from our opening set at an Exposé Noir day party in Montreal last October. It captures a pivotal moment in our musical journey. We’ll always have a deep love for bass (and it’s definitely present here), but this set marks the moment when we began exploring new textures, emotions, and modes of storytelling.

Starting with slower tempos and syncopated rhythms, the mix moves through atmospheric tracks with sentimental breaks before closing with rolling, bass-heavy, percussive, techno-adjacent sounds. This set reflects how our approach to DJing has evolved—layering rhythms, basslines, and tonal elements to create something fresh and engaging for the dance floor.

For us, this mix is a snapshot of our growth and experimentation. Hope you enjoy xx"
