Act II

In anticipation of the 2023 edition of the MOSTRA Festival, with whom we joined forces to present you music from some of the most exciting and talented producers and DJs worldwide, in the next couple of weeks, we'll feature several truly outstanding music tales. 

The first mix in our 'Delayed x Mostra' mix series comes from the incredible French producer and DJ based in Germany, Aa Sudd, who has in this past year released two of the most groundbreaking and avant-garde albums of the moment: one with Konduku as Konsudd and another released just a month or so ago on Midgar. 

Aa Sudd's mix is a true masterpiece exploring the dub's hypnotic and atmospheric realms. With intricate and captivating polyrhythms, this mix takes listeners on a psychedelic journey through sound. The various rhythms blend seamlessly, creating a truly otherworldly experience when you listen to it on your headphones.

Aa Sudd will play on the festival's opening day, Thursday, April 6, from 9-11 pm at the Hangar.


THE THREE AXES OF MOSTRA

Local
The pandemic highlighted the importance of local communities, local institutions and local support for one another. We at Mostra continue the commitment to our Local, not only by programming local artists on the line-up, but also through how we choose our suppliers and other collaborations in the city. And we go further: an exhibitors' Fira for the duration of the festival, generating our own media content during the year through MostRadio, the Mostra’m series of debates, seminars and conferences in parallel with the festival, and our ExtraMostra series of events in venues across Barcelona place Mostra’s roots firmly in their local environment.

Inclusive
Mostra is a festival that reflects on the realities that surround us in electronic music. We are committed to breaking the gender gap in a scene that is traditionally very masculinised. We try to reflect this in our programming, in our team, and in the values we promote: we want a friendly and safe space where there is no room for any kind of violence, and where respect for diversity is fundamental. We have developed our own protocol with a gender perspective, and we seek to raise awareness in a transversal way throughout the project.

Sustainable
Mostra is a festival that seeks to be a social and environmental benchmark through its actions. We follow the most up-to-date sustainable protocols and develop good practice in relation to both city and planet. We have created the role of Sustainability Director who leads and implements an action plan based on sustainable experiences; we limit the programming of artists from overseas to reduce our carbon footprint; and we are committed to contracting and collaborating with social integration and social and solidarity organisations from Barcelona.

ABOUT MOSTRA
We are a group of people with diverse backgrounds, but all closely linked to the electronic music and cultural scene in Barcelona and beyond, with involvement in projects such as Paral-lel Festival, Alpenglühen, Sónar+D, Fab Lab Barcelona, Comissió Nocturna, dublab

For CoziMix 09 we welcome Prague based legend, patricccio! 
Born and raised in Monterrey, Mexico, where his interest in sound first sparked from his brother, who’s a great musician and film scorer. After moving to Prague in 2016, his interests deepened further, as the local music scene inspired him to learn how to DJ. At the same time he became involved in other related fields, working as a lighting designer for Kave in 2020, and he continues to create light installations for here and there. He tends to dive into tribal and trippy genres, often full of bassy, deep, and percussive sounds. But always with unexpected twists. 
Here he has created a mix for us to dive into a day before him & Cozi boss softi take on Ankali & Planet Za. If you're about Prague make sure to check it out :)

Interview below....


1. How and why did you get into producing / dj’ing?


12 years ago a friend of mine was getting rid of this tiny pioneer controller and he ended up giving it to me. Wasn’t very consistent until around 2018-2019. The scene in Prague provoked in me an endless desire and curiosity to dive into this world. 


2. Who, What/where was your most coziest gig you've been to or experienced and why?


Those endless Claudio PRC’s residency nights at Ankali (2017-2018) with incredible guests such as Jane Fitz and Wrong Assessment. Sounds I never heard before. But most recently a night that I will never forget is Amphibian x Deviant party. With sounds I never experienced in the club before… local artist Atch22 blew my mind plus the headliners Amor Satyr and Siu Mata. Hypnotizing in a different way.


3. Do you consider yourself an introvert or extrovert in the industry?


Definitely an extrovert, very outgoing. Of course, like everyone, I need space and time for myself. I deal with a lot of people since I mainly work at the bar in the club (Ankali, Prague). 

4. If you had to choose 1 track to vibe out too forever, what would it be?


There’s so so many. I will choose two:


In Limbo - Jay Duncan 

Angry Gods - Sun Genam 



5. What is your routine when preparing for a gig / production/writing session? Do you have any special remedies/ mental/physical prep/ places to go to? :)

I put together playlists and listen to them constantly (every goddam day), add and get rid of stuff everyday. I filter it one last time before actually organizing it on rekordbox. Play the tracks for a bit, and I’m good to go.

Dutch-born but Brussels-based Zeta Lys aka Lucia (@zetalys) has a club-ready sound that draws on a world of broken rhythms and heavy percussion. Her influential radio show at The Word Radio finds her head into all new genre pockets around the globe and she has previously stood out at our Dekmantel Selectors festival. Lucia also composes for film and video and techniques from both disciplines inform and inspire her work with the result being music that is rich in dynamic narrative and ever-evolving mood. 

Her selection for us is prickly and fizzing with fresh rhythmic patterns. Static electricity, warped basslines and distorted synths bring great movement from the off as mutated and broken techno, dystopian jungle and deconstructed club rhythms all collide at great speed. It's an involving selection that combines many different worlds with great control, ramping up and then smoothing out the grooves at whim.
