Tracklist + Q&A: https://bit.ly/mashainsession

@masha-ny: "For this mix, I embraced a departure from my usual meticulous planning and opted for a crossover genre approach, infusing elements of acid house and techno. I really love acid house and acid techno but with this mix I didn't necessarily want to take tracks centered around the 303, instead going for bass, electro, percussive club, and jungle tunes that have a vibe reminiscent of acid house and techno. The result is the 'Queens Acid Run Mix'. After many hours of jamming with music that I had digged through for the last few months, I reached a point where I was locked in and I found myself immersed in its direction. Once I finished it, I went on the run around Queens listening to it :)"

Side A: Bass is Eternal
Side B: 2-step Mutual Dream

A Night in the Skull Discotheque by the beloved underground selector CCL is the latest offering in the T4T LUV NRG label’s highly limited DJ mix series of cassettes. This immersive journey through a wonderland of proto-dubstep sounds from the late 1970s through the year 2000 is a sonic sibling to CCL’s acclaimed 2018 mix Ode to Queer Steppas.

Inspired in part by Eris Drew’s use of “old records to create new styles out of fragments” on her Raving Disco Breaks Vol. 1 mixtape (T4T LUV NRG, 2019), CCL approached this recording with a parallel frame of mind. Created with 3 CDJs, one Turntable, and a Boss Digital Delay 200, the tracks included in the mix are deconstructed from their whole, and constituent parts are intertwined, sampled, and dubbed out while being further stretched beyond their physical limits. CCL mixed many tracks at the 'wrong speed', pitched beyond their original recognizable tone; others are recontextualized through imaginative layering.

With a solid nod to seminal mixtapes of the early 90s, CCL references the namesake for Side A, Bass Is Eternal, an unreleased 1992 mixtape by influential Bristolian producers Smith & Mighty, an important sonic fulcrum amongst the musical tributaries of the hardcore continuum that continues to reverberate to this day. CCL experienced the after-effects of this ‘proto’ sound genesis in 2008, while living in Bristol, by which point its emergent whispers had coalesced into what became known as dubstep. Tracing a rich history of reference through the samples, basslines, moods, and drum patterns emanating from Bass Is Eternal while looking for connections that predate it became a long-term fascination for CCL. The result is a DJ mix that connects the oft-forgotten dots between proto eras and modern developments in bass and dubstep.

For the resulting sonic ride on A Night in the Skull Discotheque, CCL leads us to a fantastical place of timeless surreality – a majestic haunted dancehall soundtracked by a giddy rush of steppers and dubbed-out delights. Subs rattle through syncopated percs, and moody synths glisten in macabre glory. Fantastical dancers wriggle in wispy eternity, liberated from their corporeal forms in all their greatest spiritual wonder. Both extravagant and dusky, A Night in the Skull Discotheque is a world of seductive in-betweens, a place caught between the moodiest depths and the highest exuberance – A love letter to one of the most impactful formative sounds of the last decades.

Avec "Mr Sexobreak", J.Deere 420 pose la genèse de son projet : un mélange électrique d'énergies coupées au cordeau. La track est une fusion audacieuse qui combine pads ambiants trippy, phases breakbeat percutantes, des touches trancy mélancoliques, et surtout, un saxophone saturé de reverb et de delay. 

Ce titre représente le cœur de la direction artistique de J.Deere 420 : emmener l'auditeur dans plusieurs directions distinctes. Il s'agit de mixer plusieurs énergies, généralement deux ambiances, coupées au milieu par un break ou des FX transitionnels. Ce que l'artiste recherche avant tout, c'est l'élément surprise, le cachet inattendu qui vient enrichir la narration du morceau.

L'artiste a trouvé l'inspiration immédiatement après une marche sur la côte, en lançant le logiciel avec une idée bien précise. Sa fenêtre donnant sur la rade de Brest est une source d'inspiration constante, invitant à composer des tracks mélancoliques. Côté inspirations, l'artiste Zouave (notamment sa track "Casarider") l'a beaucoup inspiré pour l'ajout du saxophone. Quant aux éléments trancy et deep, ils sont un hommage à sa mère, qui écoutait beaucoup d'ambient durant son enfance.

Favorite weird drug experience?

Being dressed head to toe as one of the twins from the Matrix on a New Years Day boat party in Perth. Picture full-length trench coat and horrific makeup on a 39°C day whilst everyone else looked smexy in leather bikinis. 

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

Smaller venues are hopefully able to stay open. More consideration from promoters in curations of parties, appropriate bookings with intention of a night rather than names on a bill. Deeper value of local scenes and the willingness to work together in these - less gatekeeping. More day parties, outdoor parties. Genuine progression with overall diversity, less tokenism.
