Emo Electro remix I did for my pal Greg K a few years back

Greg K - Right Turn (Olin Remix) [free dl]

Originally released on Argot in 2012, this was one of my first ever releases but I still find that these tunes stack up against most things I've done since. "Finally" is a simple but extremely effective chugger and "Tomorrow's News" is an ode to sunshine, psychedelics, and the Korg M1. The latter is still one of the things I'm most proud of as an artist, so hopefully folks will enjoy it as much as I still do.

House party rockin Jazz to Freestyle to Boogie to Italo.

Refuge Worldwide - October 15 2021 (Party JAMS)

A lot of people love closing, I love opening. Taking the party from 0 to whatever level feels appropriate is a challenging and exciting task. Letting things simmer a bit longer than you normally would to build suspense and then goin for it at the end so you can hand it off to someone you respect is super rewarding. This is an oldie that I just realized I had recorded from a Slack (my residency at smartbar) in 2017. A slow, groovy burn with a few flubs, but whatever; if you don't fuck up a bit playing records for 3 hours and change you're not trying hard enough (or better than me).

Ambient into jazz into synth stuff into deep techno into spartan electro into minimal house into techno into ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Live at Slack in smartbar: Sept 15, 2017

Played a few choons with an all time fav DJ partner of mine, @jason-fellows! We def housed it up! Shoutout Sean Paul @refugeworldwide

This is a set of 100% (mostly unreleased or forthcoming) tunes I made or collaborated on. It spans Zhané reworks to my Carl Craig impression to ready-to-No-Way-Back psychedelic chaos to slick top-down Detroit influenced electro. This is the first time I've done anything like this, but I'm pretty happy with the results. Hope you enjoy, as well!

I play the first hour and then host Holic Trax boss (and just regular boss) Tomoki Tamura for the second hour!

Olin's World wsg Tomoki Tamura - 27 Aug 2022

2 hours of electro, garage, breaks, and fun with my bud @nikki-nair!

Olin's World (b2b w/ Nikki Nair) - Sept 15 2022

Chiller breaks, downtempo, dnb that evolves into jazz, house, rnb.

Olin's World - 17 Nov 2022

Former Chicagoans and current Berliners unite! Jacob Meehan joins me this month with a fun n funky set of house and more. Jacob is one of the forces behind the incredible Buttons party here in Berlin, and plays the first hour of this show.

Olin's World - 5 Feb 2023 wsg Jacob Meehan

Posting up the first hour and a half (thanks, shitty recorder) of my 6.5 hour set at Tresor/Globus' "Aurora Bar", which is envisioned as a sorta chill out vibey space that can serve as a respite from the more chaotic dancefloors.

This starts with ambient, goes into some deep artsy house and techno, some downtempo, some digidub, and some other stuff. Enjoy!

Edited

Live at Aurora Bar - 1 March 2023

Olin's World - 11 March 2023 wsg The Blessed Madonna

Iron Curtis and Gleisi123 start us off with a delightful selection that spans bossa nova to breaks to delightfully saccharin synth pop and I bring us home with synth-heavy chuggers.

Olin's World 11 May 23 wsg Iron Curtis and Gleisi123

A rare solo episode this month on @refugeworldwide. Kept it chill with some soft-lighting jazz, dub, boogie, and dreams.

Love Child

My set before the great Leon Vynehall. Felt good to play some disco and house in the ol barn, as I'd been playing more techno-ish things. Feel free to ask for track IDs!

Jive

Figured I would at least toss up SOMETHING today, given Bandcamp's generous offer and my less than ideal situation.

This is a remix/rework of one of the first "techno" records I ever bought wayyyy back in the mid 2000s. I didn't have two turntables at home, so I would bring this along with a few other records I had to the studio for my radio show at KJHK in college, and basically just on-air trainwreck over and over in hopes of improving over time. I eventually did, but the listeners of Radio Stylus really took the hit for everyone.

Like so many others, I am very out to sea by all of this and would love any support you can throw my way. I quit my job to move my life across the Atlantic so I could try and commit to this artist thing, and now it's a bit more than I can chew given the fact that all gigs for everyone are suspended indefinitely.

If you got a few bucks, toss em my way in whatever amount you can afford. If you're an artist just trying to keep your head above water, this one's on me!

Motte's Sauce

Was feeling a bit homesick so I played some tunes that reminded me of Chicago.

June 10, 2020: bumped the levels up a bit on this so now it shouldn't be quite so quiet! Play it loud as the booty gods intended.

Hör Radio 04.01.2020 - Ghetto House(ish) Special

Played some gloopy afternoon acid groovers w/ a splash of double time dnb tempo jammers on @hoerberlin.

Olin - HÖR Radio - July 7 2020 (87 special)

The idea behind this was to play dnb tempo things that largely did away with the classic breakbeat samples in favor drum machines on a more techno vibe.

Hör Radio - Feb 2 - 165bpm breaks minus the breaks

Former @smartbarchicago resident, now @tresorberlin + @refugeworldwide resident; they/them pls

Just doing my best over here.
