yesssss send it Storm 😵‍💫🤯😵‍💫

Hopefully we'll hear these cranking tunes on a nice big sound system soon x

G’day, Stormn Norm here, running parties and a record label in Melbourne is a real rewarding buzz. Having to cancel Modern Hypnosis @ Sub Club over the weekend is a different kind of buzz…a sad buzz. But hey, for all the right reasons. 

Here’s a mix I recorded on Sunday, a fairly accurate adaptation of what would have gone down at Sub Club between the hours of 01:30-02:30, just after Sophie McAlister and just before Toni Yotzi, C.Frim & Ramsey took over the controls on Saturday night. 

Heavily focused high nrg club tracks to dismantle your chakras, with a naughty glimpse at a few MH forthcomings. Please enjoy listening after a few refreshments / schooners or pending your rona situation, a few lemsips. The mix starts out with a few system shakers to warm up the scoops, then straight into some peak-time technotic bass beats to make you sweat...then it's Dubstep time while fanboying out with too many Epoch tunes. 

Enjoy!!!

The real heroes of the story are the Djs who could not perform and the producers who create the music they select. Please go over to Insta and give them a follow and a few fire emoji’s. 

**There's no such thing as too much dub siren.

Had a morning rinse and decided to hit record – new and old tunes for you and yours, slowed down rollers leaning into a rhythmic stroll into hypnotic territories!

MID APRIL SESSION

A collection of ambient soundscapes I put together to lull baby Margaret to sleep. This mix would also be appropriate for a relaxing bath, for cozying up in front of the fire with a good book, or just simply winding down from a long day of work.

Once upon a time, V.I.V.E.K Sharda was unhappy with the sound at UK nightclubs and parties—sound that he felt couldn't capture the deepest, truest vibrations of the music he wanted to play and hear—so he just made his own sound system. (Naturally, he called it System.) That should give you an idea of how seriously Sharda takes his wubs and his sub-bass, and if you have even a passing interest in UK sound system culture or dub's crossover with dance music—including, yes, dubstep—then you've probably heard of V.I.V.E.K, or at least heard one of his chest-rattling records.

Along with producers like Om Unit and Kryptic Minds—both of whom feature in the mix below—Sharda has never been one for following trends or concerned about scenes. Instead, he's fully devoted to the pulse of dub and the luxury of bassweight. He's put out slow but steady stream of ultra-heavy releases on his own labels System Music and VIVEK, and now he's on a mission to change perceptions of what 140 BPM music can sound like. That's what you'll hear on his RA Podcast, a meditative and occasionally tectonically-shifting mix that highlights dubstep, dub and its many offshoots—not just staggered drums and subterranean low-end but smooth swing and soulful melodies, too.

In a recent production tutorial, Om Unit described musicians as "transceivers of information".

"I think once we understand that", he continued, "then it becomes less about making things with such a fixed perspective and more about adding something reflective to the landscape by using our own techniques to hopefully create something unique and convincing." Taken in context this may have been a quite about production, but it also extends to the philosophy that makes Om Unit's music tick. You only need to read one interview to realise that he's religiously studied the forms of music dearest to him, and thought long and hard about what he can add to them. He doesn't take his position as a musician lightly, in short.
He originally did this as 2Tall, releasing a series of albums and mix CDs from 2004-2008, including the brilliant Beautiful Mindz, a collaboration with Dudley Perkins and Georgia Anne Muldrow. As Om Unit, he found his opening act with a white label edit of Joker's 'Digidesign'; the track was heavily supported by Plastician, who signed Om Unit up for a full EP on his Terrorhythm label.

Om Unit continued to released warped hip-hop on labels like All City and Civil, but in 2011 something really clicked. Inspired by Chicago's footwork scene, which had started making waves in Europe due to the support of Planet Mu and others, he released a series of EPs under the name Philip D Kick which explored the then-mostly-untapped ground between jungle and footwork. He wasn't quite the only one doing this - in fact, when Om Unit and Machinedrum discovered they'd had the same idea, they joined forces for an EP as Dream Continuum - but he was among the first to discover this winning formula, and it led to a whole new phase of Om Unit's career. After years of studying the form, he was now a fully-fledged jungle producer.

Like the best jungle producers, Metalheadz eventually came calling. Om Unit's latest EP Inversion was released last week on 'Headz and saw Om Unit given access to label boss Goldie's DAT archive and sample collection, which he "gladly used as salt 'n' pepper to spice up the work." This week, he toasts Inversion with a mix that leans heavily on producers like, like himself, started off making non-jungle music but have been drawn to the style of late: Lee Banon, Etch, Lee Gamble and Teklife's DJ Earl all feature, alongside 4Hero, Dead Can Dance and more.
