this last track was really the nail in the coffin

some good ones

With a sound that is non-conformist and deeply rhythmic, re:ni presents this week's podcast, effortlessly gliding between UK techno, bass and beyond. Few DJ's consistently surprise us the way she does and we’re delighted to welcome her back for Dimensions 2021 and eagerly await her sonic splendours.

Label Of The Month Mix: Livity Sound mixed by Hodge

Soooo time signatures, I'm a bit of a fan around math and music and this was a test with that. This tune was made at 105 bpm with a 3/4 time signature and I've exported it and mixed it and realised it mixes over 140 bpm tracks too, depending on how your Rekordbox analysis's Dot. 4. So download it for free, have a mix with it and see how you go. 
Enjoy

Polygonia @ The Lot Radio 05-17-2024

In anticipation of the next release on Eaux, a mini-album collaboration with Polygonia entitled "Dermatology," I have decided to release a rare recording of one of my live sets, taken from this year's Mostra Festival, located in the historic Montjuïc Castle overlooking Barcelona. Performing in the evening in this majestic location with the open-minded Mostra audience, I felt especially free to let this set unfold even more slowly and patiently than normal. Some of the material is taken from the upcoming release with Polygonia, so it also functions as a sort of hidden sneak preview. I hope you enjoy the journey :)

MEMORIES

Function lays down the Sandwell District style on this week's RA podcast.

RA.177 Sandwell District

Back in 2016, Skee Mask and Zenker Brothers spontaneously attempted to play together at an afterparty in Prague, but after ten minutes the electricity failed. Two years later they finally had the opportunity to play a joint extended set for the first time - at Unsound Kraków 2018. The three DJs closed Saturday night in Hotel Forum with an expansive set building on adventurous forms of techno, jungle and broken beat, combining the collective interests of Ilian Tape. The set kicked off at 4am in the Ball Room.

Darwin's In Session Mix presents all the kaleidoscopic facets of her sets, beginning with multidimensional matrix-like space sounds and slowly moving into her groove of deep UK garage before floating into break beats and infectious dancefloor cuts. 

Water bubble textures and acidic noises make an appearance before she ends with jacking footwork beats, setting you in the middle of the jungle.

Here she showcases an array of sonic explorations, a focus that has made her one of the key guiding forces in the underground scene today.

In Session: Darwin

Chicago born @Antenes is a Brooklyn based synth obsessive. She builds her own modulars and then sets them to the future to cook up rough edged warehouse tracks that are gritty and bleakly atmospheric, as well as more textured, detailed ambient work. She has done installations at Moogfest as well as playing as far afield as China, Colombia and Japan, and has appeared on LIES, Silent Season, Bunker NY and Mord. She DJs as well as playing live, has roots in goth and industrial as well as noise  from her early years playing guitar, but also has a real love of techno, electro and experimental.

Her darkly absorbing mix for us this week includes tracks from Electric Indigo, Stephanie Merchak, Fjader, Oisel, Rrose, Lonefront, DJ ESP, Erica Mar, Wata Igarashi, Silent Servant, Ewa Justka, Bergsonist and Uun. It reflects her interest in a healthy amount of ominous dance hypnagogia while also drawing from a large pool of influences from the experimental to her roots in the Midwest. “The ESP track in there has some weird filtering and panning with the crunchy drums for example,” she says, “I love hearing how raw it is”.
