Traxx - Back 2 Jack Mixtape - 90's

The inimitable Traxx shared his unique musical vision at Honey Soundsystem and guided us on a spirit journey of epic proportions. Very thankful to be allowed to share this set with you!

TRAXX - Live at Honey Soundsystem [8-4-13]

this 6 1/2 hour live recording comes from 
The Articulate Musician Beyond Description 
for the 1st time to Belgrade Serbia in a culture center 
where the party doesnt have to end at a certain time.
KC Drugstore is made from the HEADS and the vibe is over 
when everyone decides it is..
the session starts or continues from 1 hand to another as Schwabe was playing a new production from baris K on a new label but we dont know much more than this, 
but we heard the track is really long so Traxx stepped up
to stay on the same slow vibe tempo you hear and brings
in his own music blueprint of a long play production for 
those who could believe that.
the disc jockey before had the track playing it for the 
early attendees but we used it to allow the journey to 
take flight thru the nite til very late the next day..

a breath taking experience of mental-musicality

If you ever witnessed a performance by Melvin Oliphant III aka Traxx, you know that the man is more than just your average DJ or producer. Genre-bending and constantly in a state of trance, Traxx is a unique species in our contemporary world of electronic music. All comes forth out of a endless love for music that catches his ear and instantly sets all motion in his body in progress. Seeing him play a deck-segment for the first time will probably knock you out of your shoes as his intense, expressive way of experiencing the music he plays is unparalleled. Not only are his performances not to be missed, his contribution to the Jakbeat movement via his Nation imprint amongst other affiliated labels and his own productions and collaborations are on a similar level.

In 2013 Traxx closed out the smallest stage stage of the first edition of Dekmantel Festival, to prepare the inauguration of a long-standing commitment between Nation and Dekmantel that went into it's third time this year, when Traxx got up on the decks of  the Melkweg Club to close out Saturdays Dekmantel by Night.

Nation decided to share with us in this podcast of the recording from that first night in 2013. An energy-level so intense that brought the crowd into a frenzy, while dancing in the rain.
Hit play, and reminisce...

Traxx (Nation / US)

Not content to be labeled as merely a DJ, a producer, or even a DJ/Producer, Melvin Oliphant III aka Traxx is a lover of music - one with a passion so intense that it overcomes genre divides to weave an altogether original, exciting, and multi-textured musical fabric which envelops both the avid clubber and the home listener, as well as everyone in between.

In 2007 Traxx founded Nation as a platform for the Jakbeat sound. He also released on numerous labels such as Relief, M/O/S, Gigolo, Muzique, Crème Organization, Antenna and Crème-Jak, under different monikers such as XXart, Saturn V, X2, The Green Goblin and Dirty Criminals. He collaborated with James T. Cotton, DJ Hell, Green Velvet, Hieroglyphic Being, DeeCoy and Legowelt to shape his unique definition of Jakbeat.

'Deep Reflections', mixed live using all vinyl, is just what the title suggests. A lovingly crafted mix showcasing Victor Aguinaga's talent in creating moods with long blends and a few surprises here and there. It's a cliche to say that it's a soulful mix, but hell, here the word actually means the real deal. Take a listen and I'm sure you'll agree, this mix is a real gem. Spread the word, deep house is alive and well.

Guest mix: #32 'Deep Reflections' by chicagodeep

“Truetek...a journey through the sounds of some raw, deep techno. I picked up most of these records in a little shop in Offenbach, Deuchland the last time I was in Europe. To me this shop was a glimmer of hope in that original, underground music still has a place and enough listeners to maintain support...” - Brad

Guest mix #31 "Truetek" by Brad Peterson

Ame & Dixon - Awakenings Festival Holland - 27.06.2009

this live recording is from the 1st nite in chicago of a 3 day tour at The Aragon Ballroom(boom mic live) where traxx joined the tour that was completely overwhelming in the most serious way he faced as a musical challenge for 
those interested to listen how the nite proceeded.

with this incredible honor to make the opening proceedings at 
special venue locations in specific cities in the US for 
their new album ‘american dream’ tour, he personally put 
together songs which could contrast to their album title to 
the musical segments based on the journeys shared among 
the band and tour production crew.

this was a heavy thorough musical preparation to have 
played many songs(all over the spectrum)as each nite 
was completely different in selection and programming.

thank you with love and endearing admiration and appreciation

LCD Opening Proceedings- Aragon Ballroom(chicago)with Traxx Nov.6th 2017

For the next episode we present an acidic journey through the familiar, yet unfamiliar realms of the uncanny. A special 2 hour and 42 minute presentation of psychedelia that recalls the dark corners of warehouse parties of a forgotten era, while at the same time, striking to the current core of modern jakbeat aesthetics. Further mind altering experiences are provoked and amplified by a delay pedal that runs its course from beginning to end, while making no apologies for its audible presence. And without further adieu, we present "Demented - Fluids of Acid Adrenaline, Uncontrolled with Endless Effects", a sound painting by, Traxx.

Traxx at AYLI: A Tale of Four Cities 01.22.11

"We’d thought our last evening in Barcelona was going to be a musical blunder. The events throughout the city were less than appealing, and we were left wandering around aimlessly for a good portion of the evening; until we found our way by disregarding every lesson we ever learned as toddlers"

"Past 3am local time, our options were scant, so we walked down one of the most hostile corridors in all of Europe, Barcelona’s Las Ramblas, rampant with some of the most terrifying creatures of the night. A quick right down some grim alleyway, and there it was — Moog. From the outside, nothing more than rotting stucco, a small congregation of degenerates and random gypsies selling cans of beer. We paid the fare for entrance, descended into the seizure inciting strobes, and ultimately discovered an acid haven that any techno fan would have crowned king"

"If the world does in fact end today, I can sign off as a truly satisfied enthusiast of techno music"
