Joe Ellis - Freerotation 19  live recording

Recording of my live set from Room 3, Saturday 6th July 2019! I built this set from scratch for the festival and thoroughly enjoyed the process! To play at Freerotation has been a huge milestone for me which I had dreamt about since first attending 6 FR ago... The energy in that room was like nothing I have ever experienced before and I think the recording captures it well! Hope you enjoy! x

Live Set @ Freerotation 2019

Live improvised set @ Freerotation 2019 - part 2

What a mind-blowing, powerful, incredible human festival (just back from first Freerotation festival). Great music, such heartwarming vibes, I'm still processing the magic of it all - 

Here's a recording of the second part of my live set which ended up being far more improvised than planned.

Thanks Steevio and Suzybee Brady and everyone involved in the organization . Also special thanks to @Deenaabdelwahed who gave me part of her time slot, due to technical issues. I'm so glad to have met loads of dope ppl!
See you again (latest) next year!

Magic Mountain High - Live at Freerotation 2019

My Recorder was totally distorted in the beginning and I honestly thought the recording did not work but the limiter kicked in after 20 minutes so  here is my set from 20 minutes in, opening Room 1. I am humbled to have been part of such an high quality festival. Thanks to @steevio , Suzybee and everyone that made it such a unique experience. Photo by Saki Yamada and visuals by Hippiezilla.

A chunk of my set from this year's Freerotation Festival. Minus the start, cos I forgot to record, and the end, cos the gremlins crept into the recording. Dedicated to the Freero fam.

Freerotation is very special to me, in fact it's my favourite festival! So this was a dream come true! Felt surreal after all these years going to rave there going to play there! Room 3 on Saturday night was pure vibes - big ups everyone who danced and cheered hard, props to my mates with their tops off haha! Huge love to Steevio & Suzybee for inviting me to play! <3

Big thanks to Charlie Tear & Alex Downey for the recording :)

Tasha live at Freerotation 2019

This is my deep warm up set for the room 3 on Saturday night this year. I recorded it live, but when i listened to it for the first time, i sadly noticed that I had only the sound of the room so I decided to do it again at home. I really wanted to share it with because it was my first time playing at Freerotation, a really really important place in my heart. Hope you'll like it!

Mouloud  Freerotation 2019

An improvised and mostly unrehearsed three turntable Techno throw-down, performed live at the temporal point in space-time that is Freerotation Festival.

The last time I played an up-tempo Techno set like this at Freerotation was in 2011, and I’ve been pestering Steevio to let me bang it again ever since - this was the year it finally happened. 
Set times aren’t announced until the day, so it was as much of a surprise to me as anyone else to find out that I would be playing the closing set in that room.
After a night of excellent live & DJ sets from the highly talented women I had the honour of sharing the bill with, I had to be on top of my game to maintain the energy levels at the high bar they had set. 
My aim was to keep the tempos up around 137 BPM, make good use of all three turntables, improvise as much as possible in a spontaneous way by keeping the rehearsing to a minimum, and stay as present in the moment as much as I could possibly be.
I worked out the intro and the first couple of tracks, but then kept it mostly freestyle after that, which led to some unexpected twists, turns and inspired moments that kept me on my toes, and the crowd buzzing. 
This was one of those special nights where the amazing and supportive crowd gave so much energy, that it fed straight back into the music, which then began to feel like an energy flowing right through you, that pulled you even deeper into the moment. 
Presence!
I was ecstatic to  have been so well received by the large crowd that had gathered, it was an honour & a privilege to hold the space for 90 minutes, and a joy to have the opportunity close the room on such a high. 
Unfortunately some of the amps developed a fault, causing them to overheat & create a nasty burning smell, so the set had to be brought to an abrupt end to avoid causing a fire. 
An unmet demand for a final tune rampantly ensued, I loudly and regrettably responded “The Amps Are On Fire!!”, to which someone remarked “of course they are, you did a good job”, which I felt was a fitting end to a smoking night of Techno-music, that was pure heat from start to finish! :)

Recorded Live on Sunday 7th July 2019, 
4:30 - 6am, in Sammy String's (Room 3), 
at Freerotation Festival, Baskerville Hall, Hay on Wye, UK.
