We are honoured to welcome, an artist who needs no introduction, local icon Simon TK.  His work curating label Club Derange and Skylab radio, as well as his illustrious deejay career both solo and with Waxo paradiso  is instrumental in making our Naarm scene tick. Someone we’ve personally idolised here at Neurocrank from his sunrise sets at Pitch to club nights at Colour, Simon’s sets have always inspired us to dig a little deeper. No exception here, Simon has blessed us with an hour of deep proggy blends xx

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:
I think the most important thing is firstly finding your community. Find the people and music that inspire you. If you can't find people and spaces that make you feel comfortable and safe - keep looking, as they are out there somewhere. Once you find it, invest in your scene - if you love and nurture it, it can give back to you. Then, give back some more... Create a symbiotic relationship. Ask questions of the people you look up to, even if the questions seem silly. It's great to have a goal but don't forget to enjoy the process. Practice heaps! Be kind to yourself as you learn. There will be setbacks and times that will make you want to give up completely - don't give up! These setbacks will offer so much room for growth and learning. Listen and take advice on board but then go your own way. Stay true to what feels natural to you. It's hard not to compare yourself to others, especially in the era of social media. I find it can be empowering to accept that those thoughts are there, and try and not give them too much air time. Don't listen to people who try to make you feel shame for taking yourself seriously. There is no shame in taking your art seriously. You're never too old to start!!! Learning about genres can be cool but don't stress about them. Last, but not least... Play tracks you love, and have fun :)

021 - BENOIT B

Although somewhat a new kid on the block when it comes to producing dance music, Maara has been shifting gears in the scene and is killing it on all fronts as of late. With a killer debut EP landing on NAFF Recordings earlier this year, followed by a recent follow-up on Daniel Rincon run record label ISLA, her productions hit the sweet spot between the ethereal ambience of hazy afterhours ecstasy and tripped-out techno leanings. Wasting no time, Maara dives deep into a propulsive assembly of proggy house delights, blissful trance grooves and hypnotic techno, as she supplies our latest mix and we catch up to hear the latest. Strap in!

Paper-Cuts: Live at Tabula Rasa (New Year's Eve 2021)

A very special treat for number seventy two. Presenting a live recording of DJ Camov's set at my favourite party in Naarm, Tech World, last month. Grant soundtracked the sunny February afternoon with a boss selection of the classiest house, tech house and prog records... 

Grant is a Melb deejay icon, having frequented clubs, raves and park parties for the last decade in a chameleon like fashion. He now resides in Copenhagen and also djs under his deep diving trance alias @goasis

So excited to share one this one, one of my favourite club sets as of late!

Thanks again Grant <3 and shouts to Dylan Batelic @papercutslimited for the mastering.
