Rote Sonne Podcast 59 | Phil Berg

The fast paced, hypnotic, layered, and relatively modern techno set you hear in this recording was played for the closing of the first edition of Skin at Club Atelier Amsterdam on 27/03/2022

Skin is a fresh new organisation that seeks to widen the scope of sounds during a club experience, instead of zooming in on a niche.

////About this set / long read / nerd talk////

I wanted to do something different for this night, so I experimented with a new approach to my preparation, organising playlists with tracks by what kind of sound design and moods they contain, and putting them within folders that indicated the general intensity in order to slowly ramp up the tension. This groundwork allowed me to prepare an arc for a deep set where I could make long layered mixes while maintaining the groove, speed and improvisation I consider to be recognizable features of when I DJ in a club.

Although this set also sustains a steady groove and flow, it is still a departure from my usual, more instinctive way of playing, where I tend to switch more impulsively between styles and themes, mixing tracks that have pronounced rhythmic elements with tracks that have very memorable basslines and hooks, especially from earlier decades, call it old school, 90s, 00s, retro or outdated if you want. I do this in order to keep a sense of playfulness and unpredictability going (fu n）with selections that have a distinct character.

This set was more about consistency, atmosphere and subtle transitions. The aim was to have the music slowly progress over the course of the set but without it becoming a static affair. This is why I completely avoid looping tracks, as I want their sounds to continuously evolve, and the phrasing in their structure to be continuously accentuated throughout the mix. 

It might not sound quite like what you would expect from a Comrade Winston DJ set, but I actually had a lot of fun constantly keeping two tracks in the mix while preparing for the third to take over, slowly stacking upon the current mood instead of rapidly switching between different ones. Prefering not to rely on the element of surprise but rather slowly reach a boiling point and to enjoy the ride.

Recorded with a Xone92 and 3x CDJ2000s

Let me know what you think.

Born and raised in the south hideout of the Netherlands and moving through life with a DIY attitude. Picture this with his taste and devotion for characteristically uncompromising techno and the Dutchman's fundamentals for his signature sound are no longer a secret. Continuing on the heritage of electronic music he's aiming to create a nostalgic getaway. He's most identified with a tougher groove and hard-hitting rhythmic journeys.

Embracing the underground electronic culture with open arms the Dutchman formed his label EMERALD, releasing records from himself and others. Humbly pushing foward his vision of electronic music when it matters most.

Celebrating 5 years of EMERALD in April 2023 with 'The Dusk Hour EP' by the head honcho, following up with another release from him in the summer named 'Stronger Than Fiction'.

Awakenings Podcast S253 - Arthur Robert

Hey everyone, 

here's a new set by me, fresh from 909 festival. High-energy vocal-heavy festival vibes while still trying to keep my signature darker and driving flavour. When playing this set I thought it was quite a chaotic set, but to be honest it's just a fucking bop. So I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do!

Much love,

S

“As for most podcasts, I wanted the set to be 100% me, as there’s no crowd to adapt to. The set consists of the exact kind of techno that I would imagine myself playing at an Awakenings event in the Gashouder; bridging the deep, groovy and dramatic. As always you can expect to find some unreleased tracks of mine in there. I’m honoured to be part of the legendary brand’s podcast series, as a nice little warmup for this summer’s festival. Enjoy!"
