SONS OF TRADERS IS BACK WITH STELLAR LINE UP! Sons of Traders 002 is a Compilation 8 Tracks Ep of loosely knit artists that surround the duo Sons of Traders (Mike Tansella Jr. and TANS). Leading the EP, the title track “Rotten to the Core” is a slow stomper with a forceful vocal sample and some various squelches. LA’s Kosmik picks up the tempo with “Murmurs” which features a hypnotic synth loop over a 4/4 beat. On “Chomping at the Bit” C.L.A.W.S. and Tyrell trade off between claps, hi hats and short delays underneath a sinister synth tone. To close the A side of the record is Future Blondes out of Texas with “2020 ultra visions”, a cut that can only be described as a sinister barrage of slamming drums and tones. The B side launches with “The Other Side of Town” by The White Lines, a dark electro workout with vocal samples, dark synths and growling bassline. Frigio label boss Juan Pablo brings us an intricate drum pattern with layers of synths on “Night Drive in Beijing”. “Self Feral” by Chris Mitchell is something with a hip hop swing, heavy drums, various feedback and vocals. Closing the EP is Dragee, a new artist from Haifa ,Israel. “Them” features a hard snare that holds together the demented vocals, claps and bassline that develop throughout the track.

Gavilán Rayna Russom is an interdisciplinary artist based in New York City. Over the past two decades she has produced a complex and compelling body of creative output that fuses theory with expression, nightlife with academia and spirituality with everyday life. Rayna’s renowned prowess with analog and digital synthesizers as composing instruments locates itself within her larger vision of synthesis; an artistic method of weaving together highly differentiated strands of information and creative material into cogent expressive wholes. The central thread of this practice is the exploration of liminality as a healing agent, a phenomenon she has been engaged with since childhood and has researched at an astounding depth. Her work is cumulative and experiential. It requires time and attention to take in, and it powerfully rewards those who bring their time and attention to it.

In March of 2020 Rayna founded Voluminous Arts, a creative network for supporting and disseminating works by boundary pushing artists.

About this Mix:

“Rhythmic Telepathy is a mix directly influenced by these times. It was recorded live, by hand, using old turntables and out of date CDJs. You will hear traces of ambient, acid, lo-fi, new wave, EBM, dark disco, and experimental, but the genres aren’t nearly as important as the underlying emotions that inspired this selection-feelings of isolation, loneliness, and a good deal of skepticism toward the ideas we adopt as reality. You will also notice I don’t always seamlessly mix, and I play with volume-raising and lowering accordingly. This is intentional-a reflection of my feelings moving through this new reality we are in. Also, I wanted to give some space for integration between certain tracks in order to bring the listener out of their trance and have a look around them”.

DJ WELL ADJUSTED Coming from a Punk and Hardcore background DJ Well Adjusted has always been drawn to predominantly older music, as the best stuff within those genres was released in the late 70's and 80s's, taking that same principle and applying it to house music, along with a thirst for the original source of House, the first records he listened to were the likes of Mr. Fingers and Phuture, along with other classic Chicago House music. During that transitional period, realizing that groups such as Psychic TV and Coil, groups he was already familiar with had released Acid House and Techno records solidified his interest in Electronic music and helped bridge the gap from Punk to house.
