Missing Tapes Mix Series

Random sets .. (Indie, experimental, noise etc.) part 3

listen sets

For this edition of the Fast Forward series, we present to you Blue Hour @bluehour909 with a mix focusing on early-rave! - Enjoy!

From starting out promoting club nights in the UK, Luke Standing has been devoted to underground electronic music.
His first records under the names Furesshu and Esoteric experimented with swung and atmospheric techno before he resettled in Germany and launched his resolutely independent project Blue Hour in late 2013. Since then, Standing has released pivotal records with a distinctive sound driven by the spirit and energy of the '90s, and in turn, been welcomed into some of the most respected venues across the globe. Fuelled by his obsession with the early days of dance music, when genres like trance, jungle, and IDM overlapped, his DJ sets explore a narrative of timeless music, blurring the lines between geography and scene, space and time. Beyond the platform originally started for his own productions, Blue Hour has since begun extending his reach towards other artists and releasing music from Dold
and Alpha Tracks as well as his collaborative project as Tracing Xircles. An acclaimed Remixed series has also seen artists like Steffi, Pangaea and Answer Code Request re-working his music. There is no doubt that Blue Hour has become part of the techno world, but Standing stands clearly apart within it.

Next up in the Fast Forward Audio Series we have Damon Bradley!

Damon Bradley, a resident of central Maryland, USA, was born and raised in South Philadelphia.
His musical influences span a very broad spectrum from ambient to industrial techno, groovy and soulful house, and melodic progressive trance. Currently, he’s focused on exposing the boundaries of techno to as many people as possible, and he does this using the TechnoFist group and TechnoFist podcast he created in 2013 and 2015, respectively. He curates both new and classic techno on TechnoFist which now has over 2900 members, mostly from New York, Washington DC, and various European cities.

Damon has played in numerous places in Washington DC, Brooklyn, and Philadelphia including Jimmy Valentines, and Dr. Clocks Nowhere Bar for the Degenerate, Void Archive, and Phonic parties in DC, EXILE Brooklyn, Flash DC, Tilt, and Aphotic in Brooklyn. Damon’s toured the US beyond the East Coast as well, including Format x Sleepwalker Chicago, the Works in Detroit, and Synthetik in LA.
Internationally, Damon also headlined Copenhagen’s new rave series called Endurance, flanked by Hyperaktivist, Lunde and Ronde, and Ezy, and also played a few impromptu parties during Amsterdam Dance Event 2018 and Dekmantel 2017.
Damon has played at all ends of the running order, opening for the likes of Shifted, Ben Damage, Exos, and Phase, and closing for juggernauts such as Perc, Tommy Four Seven, Headless Horseman, Stranger, Milton Bradley, The Gods Planet, Jeff Mills, FJAAK, and Pure Immenance.

In 2016, Damon teamed up with Ron Jackson, Jacob Knibb, Associate and Juana to form SEQUENCE, an ambitious underground techno event series that aims to push the Washington DC techno scene as far as possible. SEQUENCE has been throwing parties since August 2016, and has featured strong local talent alongside heavyweights such as Headless Horseman, UVB, Discwoman, Milton Bradley, BMG, and Tommy Four Seven.

In March 2019, Damon started a new party series in the US called Katalyst, which bridges the gap between future techno with classic trance sounds of the early '90s. He’s already featured 11 artists in only 2 parties already and hopes to feature many more in the near future.

About the mix:
I had 3 objectives with this mix.
1) Blend opposites - past and present techno, hard and abrasive with gentle and melodic
2) Showcase intense tracks that seem to tell a story but also get folks moving fast
3) Dedication to my late mom who passed away in June - FSOL Papua New Guinea was one of her favorite songs I'd play for her over 20 years ago while I was a teenager just discovering the music, and Ibon No Sleep is the last song I played for her, a week before she died.

So the tracks include Oliver Lieb (as Superspy and L.S.G.), D. Carbone, DJ IBON, Funeral Future, Devilfish, I-E from ISMUS, Avalone, Luis Ruiz, Meiler Avenue, 999999999, and Hadone.

Ute Mix Series #21 | Ezy

The first edition of the Fast Forward Audio Series for this decade, we present to you a special collaborative effort between Viscerale and Adam Askov of Funeral Future, they named the mix "Life is not a Beach". It came about as the result of a close friendship that was formed a year ago.
The tracks featured in the mix were all fixtures at the local club Tuben back in the early ‘00s and have been superbly mixed by Viscerale. It’s a rare glimpse into a sound that preceded our own contributions to the Copenhagen techno.

Catu Diosis is up next with an hour of upbeat Ugandan music from kuduro and afro house to acholi. Catu Diosis is a Kampala based DJ and member of the Nyege Nyege collective and is currently based in Cologne. While on tour in Europe in March Uganda introduced travel restrictions in and out of the country but this very talented individual (who not only DJ's but also produces and is a professional dancer) has taken it in her stride and is doing a one year internship for Migrafrica in Germany while also running a DJ workshop locally called Dope Gal Africa to encourage Black and African women, a demographic who are currently under represented in the DJ world, to learn the craft. Massive thanks to Catu for sending us this wild mix.
