Dopplereffekt 

As we come to our 150th episode we could not be more proud of how the series is starting to shape and what better way to celebrate this milestone than with the project that has been one of the main driving forces and ideologies we strive for since day one:    

We think Joe Muggs phrased the feeling of first contact in the interview for Resident Advisor rather brilliantly; “Approaching the work of Dopplereffekt can be daunting. As the title of their first album-length collection suggests, the act—it's hard even to know whether to refer to "it," "he" or "they"—comprises a Gesamtkunstwerk: a "total artwork" where every song, every performance, every musical motif and every pronouncement is part of a greater whole.”
 
 This tendency for anonymity and mystery combined with the incorporation of insides on topics such as relativity, time-space continuum, totalitarianism, quantum physics, data (but always with a convivial twist) is what makes this act so intriguing as it always keeps its sound innovative yet timeless while keeping everything styled in Dopplerverse-matter. 

A little bit on the legacy of the concept: it made its debut in 1995 with the Fascist State EP, released by its own Dataphysix Engineering continued by Infophysix in 1996 and Sterilization in 1997 before releasing the iconic Gesamtkunstwerk in 1999.  Deep space excursions began in 2003 with the LP Linear Accelerator and the research was extended with Calabi Yau Space on Aphex Twin’s Rephlex. 
 The most recent spell of experiments saw the alliance with the Berlin based Leisure System come into fruition with 2013's Tetrahymena, the split EP with Objekt named Hypnagogia and the approach of mathematical growth and decay as an iterative process in, with data input considered individually relative to the overall model aka the Cellular Automata LP. 
Some other noteworthy work to let your mind dwell on are Die Riesen together with Visonia on Last Known Trajectory , the Instinct remix of The Exaltics on Solar One Music and the joined EP Star Gazing together with K1.   

This entire discography goes hand in hand with computer free live performances throughout time, with appearances at MUTEK, Oval Space x Different Circles, Tresor, Galactic Funk, inner city electronic, Glitch, Strange Sounds From Beyond, Nuits Sonores, Dimensions Festival, Dekmantel and countless others.

We will conduct an interview with these fascinating beings later this month, but in the meantime be sure to scour Clone Classic Cuts and Aqualung series for Der Zyklus, Japanese Telecom, Zwischenwelt and Arpanet to lead you to endless discovery and entertainment that may or may not have any connection with the previous recording, and as always…

Let its music do the talking

ZEPTER 23 - Saeko Killy & Sanja Cozma - 25/06/22

Every month I ask myself the same question: have I not played this before? Although the music is always different, I tend to be drawn to similar sounds over and over again. Having said that you will never hear the same tracks in any of my mixes. It might've happened once or twice but no more... The challenge is to create something new every time that is influenced by an idea or current mood. To distil and filter these releases, weaving them together unexpectedly so they resonate within each of us through an infinite journey to The Other Side.

Rap Vacation w/ Shamon Cassette 170125

Objekt: "Here’s the recording of my set from Dekmantel Selectors festival in Tisno, Croatia, summer 2017.

This was definitely a lucky case of snatching victory from the jaws of defeat and there are endless caveats with this recording – I had a terrible cold; I’d lost my earplugs about an hour earlier and this was the first set I’d played without them in about 6 years; the needles kept jumping (long story but kinda my fault) – but somehow the environment, the energy of the crowd and liberal quantities of vodka sent me flying through 2.5 hours of techno, house, electro, IDM, ghettotech, jungle, DnB and all the way back again. You’ll have to excuse the skipping records but otherwise I hope you enjoy the recording as much as I enjoyed playing."
