Ancient Methods - HATE Podcast 253

A raw instalment for #122 from one of @metaphorecollectif's heads @israfil1500, keeping the free party culture in Marseille alive & kicking.

Hard Dance 122: Israfil

Currently based in Vancouver, BC, Adam 2 (@adamtwo) is a DJ, producer, organizer, and perhaps above all, a devotee of the dancefloor. They are the kind of person who's likely to have a meet-cute story with a surprising number of your friends from everywhere in the world (we met over a popsicle in the front row of No Way Back once upon a time). They bring the same spirit of community and giving they bring to the dancefloor to their engagement with the music community, most recently through their label @pprzrecords with DJ Hockey and their Afrofuturism is NOW mix series.

Read the interview and see a tracklist:
https://spontaneous.zone/045-adam-2

"So for mixes usually, I’ll find a few songs which have a common narrative/story. Then with that narrative in mind, I'll think about what the start and the end of the story sound like and do I have songs which I can use for the start and the end. I’ll usually then split the mix into 2-3 parts (3 parts for a recorded mix, 2 parts for a live performance) and each part will have the same shared theme but different energy levels.

For this one, I had a few electro tracks which weren’t really based on phrases, but were long and evolving, so I could mix them as textures kinda like how I would mix techno. There is a mix of electro/bass/techno throughout, however I purposely tried to avoid songs with 4x4 kick patterns.

In terms of a narrative I envisioned a soundtrack to a science fiction movie, recounting a story of a journey gone wrong, and elements known (science) vs. elements unknown (religion/ritual). It is always interesting to reflect on when a mix was recorded and how it reflects that period of time; for me it reflects a period of Winter, an ongoing pandemic and a bleak view of the future. I wouldn’t be able to record the same mix now because I am in such a different place emotionally and musically compared to a few months ago.

It was honestly so fascinating while writing the interview for this mix series to realize I’d come full circle and I was playing electro again but in a new way, after discovering it years ago and leaving it behind after getting so tired of it."

Spontaneous Affinity #045: Adam 2

Co-founder of the collective Métaphore, outstanding producer and DJ, @israfil1500 delivers music resonating in rust and desolation; an epic art that directly echoes his stage name, the archangel announcing the beginning of the last judgment. 

His mixes are impactful and disturbing, catchy and intoxicating, welcoming his listeners suspended in time, in the middle of this desert of chaos.

Neurotek de Mars

Nebuleuse Podcast #01 | Israfil | Neurotek de Mars

Reylinn (they/she) is a DJ, visual artist, radio host and promoter from the Portland metro area, now based in Vancouver BC. They’ve been active in the pacific northwest DIY music scene since 2015, DJ’ing, VJ’ing, and working with various collectives - most notably Acceleration Radio since 2018. Through Acceleration Radio, Reylinn has worked alongside collective members to book 100+ artists across Canada, the US, and abroad for FM radio broadcasts, online live streams, and raves with the priority of platforming underrepresented artists. Reylinn’s DJ style is characterized by experimentation with a wide variety of sounds. She’s attracted to sounds ranging from techno, electro, and leftfield bass, to driving high bpm genres such as footwork, jungle and DnB, and sounds on the outer fringes - breakcore, gabber, and deconstructed club.

Notes on the Mix ///
"I focused on making a mix that just as much fits the context of an opening slot from 12-1am, as it does listening to a mix in headphones or a set of home speakers. If this were an opening set, it’d be geared towards the heads who arrive at the club early who are just as down with braindancing as they are wiggling on the floor with a lot of room. The energy rises with a dancefloor starting to fill out kept in mind."

XOXA BLEND 124 - REYLINN

@djhockey

For the extended Q&A + og pi pi pi track game... please visit our website -----> pipipi.life <--------

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Hello! My name is Tanner Hockey AKA DJ Hockey (he/him). Currently I reside in Vancouver, B.C Canada

Who/what currently inspires you music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

Daily impressions and my emotional state is a source of inspiration. When I go to mix at home I often select based on how I am feeling, or a mood I want to project.

Describe in detail your favorite place to sit & listen to music.

Rather than sitting, my preference for music listening is walking. My walk to and from work is around 30 minutes and I can generally finish an hour mix a day. This time is meditative as I tune everything around me out and focus on the music and walking.

Any advice to upcoming DJs/producers?

Production for me is rewarding, but tough work. I can fall into periods where the thought of starting a new project can seem daunting, on the flip side I can be very addicted to a project once started. Finding one source of inspiration can be all it takes to push yourself into a new project. Re-interpreting an element of an old song is often helpful for me.  

Favorite BPM and why?

I really enjoy 130-135 as it’s a pace that can have drive but people can still marathon dance, or at least I can :).

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

More protection for DIY spaces from gentrification and recognition of their cultural importance at municipal levels.

DJ Hockey - 11.97˚

@french_ii likes it heavy. His breaks, percussion, drums and bass all hit hard and it's always been that way since he debuted this project in 2019. Teenage experiences at hardcore parties initially set this style in motion and the years since have seen him hone in a distinctly UK-leaning sound. As a DJ, member of the former Tilburg collective BANGANAGANGBANGERS and promoter of his own events, he is all about high-impact club sounds. Right now, the Dutchman releases them on the Intercept label and brings everything from UKG to bass, dubstep to electro. 

This week the man born Frank Klick twists and turns through slithering club rhythms that operate above 130 bpm. There is an icy sense of futurism to the atmospheres of tracks by mainstays of this scene like Al Wootoon, Sam Goku, Stenny and Shackleton. A couple of his own collaborations with Ozzy and King of Snake set the early tempo and from there you will have a very tough job of setting still as he works through an array of intriguing face-melters, body poppers and ass-shakers.

Programmer of the Macadam club in Nantes (FR), co-founder and resident DJ of the intersectional collective Zone Rouge and co-founder and producer for the No-Scrubs label, the Amazon of nocturnal asphalt, @aasana comes out when the night burns.
The tips of her fingers on the indicator lights, the crowd in excitement and the radiant smiles, the atoms rubbing and the aromas mixing. You can hear the sounds of the city, the sounds of factories and partitioned basements. The poetry of the machine in selection, Asaana plays the sound of abandonment, the one where Bass calls the organism to order. It’s in the chaos that the balance of her sets between Bass Music, Breaks, Hardrum and Techno is drawn.

#35 - Philip Kylberg - Bottomless Pit

"This mix is inspired by life on a microscopic scale. I drew from two different topics I have been reading about over the past year or two, the first being moss & lichen, and the second being quantum physics. Robin Wall Kimerer’s writing on moss introduces the reader to a tiny world teeming with life beyond our vision, and Carlo Rovelli’s writing on quantum physics attempts to help us understand the minute & strange fabric from which reality is theoretically woven. 

The word subtle can be read as describing something delicately complex & understated, as well as something arranged in an ingenious & elaborate way. Thus, the plane of subtle form paints an image of the intricate realm of the minutiae. Moving through rainforests of moss and gorges of bark, the mix traverses this infinitesimal yet vast expanse. Becoming gradually more abstract towards its centre, things break down completely at a moment of quantum instability, a leap between one state and the next. We emerge into a new place in an instant and continue forth into the strange & unpredictable beauty of our natural world." 

Bio: Born in London & having lived in Bristol, James Laing aka Night Garden draws from the sounds of those two cities, alongside musical knowledge gained during his classical compositional training. With releases on Melifera, Bahn, Indefinite Pitch & Breatice M's hybrid Dubstep label, Bait, Night Garden aims to create richly psychedelic & hypnotic pieces which combine modern sound design with classical theoretical concepts. 

Night Garden is a musical project embodying an imagined space between our conscious reality & the land of dreams. It is a liminal point in space & time; a home to drifting forms & sounds unknown. Suspended in a twilight haze, its nebulous inhabitants float into distant obscurities, shedding ephemeral traces from their transient skin.
