Fair Shake - All Aussie mixes

It’s that time again for a new mix, and for Fair Shake 012 we are so incredibly thrilled to welcome Sydney icon Kate Doherty. When we first listened back to this we were moved by the story this mix tells of hope and acceptance, sometimes beguiled by a false future, but often renewed through music and a sense of pride in Australia’s dance tapestry. It seems overwhelmingly fitting that those featured in this mix all come from Australian origins, as we experience the world alongside each other. As spring blooms, sit on the balcony, have a glass of wine in the sun and let Kate turn you into a believer that things are getting better. 

Face the unknown, a spiralling relinquish of power,
Acceptance of our miserly delegation in confinement. 
On our hands patiently, slowly cursing luck, 
we stand out the window and look upon the unflinching earth. 
Here it seems we stay, months weeks and cold hours drag us. 
But there is hope yet in our time, 
A glimmer of forthcoming encroaches, raises the spirit, 
raises a glass and toasts in a renewal of sunshine and bravery. 
Openings appear in the brooding air, prick and you shall pass.  
We are not born to die nor conceived to conceal
and we shall live again.

Fair Shake 012 - Kate Doherty

Pierre et le Loup

From hiatus, Fair Shake has returned to tell the tale of a city’s spirit through the eyes of dear friend, Lazy Suzan. A saviour selector, she sways us with a sermon, lifts us up, beats our celestial heart. This mix is full of discrete grooves and complex rhythm, exploration of the aural and movement towards the light. So on this day of rest, Bless yourself and tune in.

Deity to the dancer,
Bodies in motion
Perscussive psalms, sound escapes
Deep in the recess of rhythm

Fair Shake 013 - Lazy Suzan

In a distant time, the earth revolves as it always did. In this age, bionics curate the masses, searching for stimulation is the motive of the heathens. In the recesses of Melbourne, everything has merged, synchronised and blended together. Hybrid is everything, technology, people, cultures and genres weld. Boroughs exist over and underground, scraping the sky as they drill deeper into the red rock. It is here, under the earth and towards the molten centre, that the psychedelic techno core of BDE’s Fair Shake mix spurns. Crowds form, jettison in from caverns, and writhe to the soundtrack of the times - join them. 

Thrills in nexus,
Get in line, 
Pills for breakfast,
Once upon a time

Fair Shake 014 - BDE

We are stoked to welcome The Remedy Man to Fair Shake 15th edition for his true blue selection sizzle. This mix shares with us his slice of Straya, and takes us on a cruise through our blazoned bushland. One for the road, roll on by the big beat with a route running from the gong to the mountain, beach to fern, sand to snow. Come one come all for a trip down Remedy lane.

Hooly Dooly
What you call this then?
Snag in bread 
Yeah nah yeah

Fair Shake 015 - The Remedy Man

Gday! And welcome to the Fair Shake Express. 3rd Orbit and Softserve in the booth. Now, find space, alight the station, relinquish the body and let them pitch us through arcs of golden chaos.  

Conducting aural scores, they encourage movement instantly, we willing passengers impress without demur. It trains down errant tracks, bouncing along the sleepers, flashing glorious sounds and poking holes in rugged terrain. Powered by steam, it exhales, and shutters the limbs all four corners. 

3rd Orbit & Softserve host The Bleached Re-Cap on Area3000 Radio focusing on driving sounds from Naarm & surrounds, so we were super excited for them to join us and highlight artists and labels solely from the city they reside. So, Arrive in style, plug in and tap off, you’re warm now and right on time.

MilkyRobbery

A 15 year veteran of the UK radio, club and festival scene and a seriously accomplished DJ with an ear for the undiscovered and a feel for those euphoric goose bump moments, we're chuffed to throw it over to London's @saoirsemusic ahead of her upcoming Australian visit..

Interview here: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/saoirse

About the mix..

"It was kind of weird because I had to pretend to be somewhere else when I put this together, it was cold and about 5 degrees here in London but I wanted to it feel like it was summer. So I closed my eyes when listening back and tried to see if it felt like summer and I think it kind of does. :D Hope you do too!"

Next up we have London party starters https://soundcloud.com/tokyofantasy stepping up for a brand new entry in our High Hoops podcast series. 

The Secretsundaze regulars have been making waves in London over the last few years, warming up for the likes of Floating Points and Palms Trax and putting together beautiful mixes for both Les Yeux Oranges and Ace and Tate’s mix series, so it is a real honour to have them contribute such a killer mix to ours. Taking you from kicked back jazz right the way through to dance floor pumpers.

High Hoops 038 - Tokyo Fantasy

Staying parked up in the harbour city for our fourth edition, Subaske takes us under the bridge and into the underground for this spectral journey into Australia after dark. No stranger to the bush, Subaske  channels calls of the outback to serve us an hour of disparate, dub, down under electro tech.

Neon arms dangle,
decompressed, neuro drilling
One with the machine”

Fair Shake 004 - Subaske

Floss Dogg has gone from strength to strength since she started performing at Primer, an event she co-runs alongside partners Robbie nine-0 and Freddy Gardens since 2017. She plays a mixture of club heat, packing a bag that spans from UK bass and techno to classic house and garage. To further nourish her need to create and share music, Floss created the Astro girl night at Angel Music Bar, a platform which highlights Melbourne’s more underground DJs. Alongside that, she is also the host of Arvo Girls, a monthly Skylab Radio broadcast which doubles as a weekly night at Dr Morse.

Emotional Content Part 2

DAMO B Emotional Content Part II

If you know, you know...

This is a visit Down The Stairs that we have been itching to nail down for a fair bit of time and are now delighted to bring it to you. If you're a fan of deeper sounds and have been on Soundcloud over the last number of years, fair chance you've come across the man like @estimulo ,  who also runs his @estimuloshow page.

A true modern day hero of all things deep house and techno mixes, this man knows how to select a 12”! As well as his insanely good and consistent online output, gigs have been racked up across some of Berlin's finest in Arkaoda, Tresor, OHM and Paloma Bar; as well as further around Europe.

It's rare to check Estimulo's page and not find a new mix every week, maybe even a couple in the space of a week. We are mega chuffed that (all being well and that he'll share it) our own DTS mix will appear alongside some crackers already out there.

Loads of amazing stuff in here from the likes of @boutopoulos-george , @spillwaylabel , @plo_sound , @ph-one , @childofthehood and many more!

Do enjoy, and be sure to follow the main man himself!
