How Deep Is Grandma's Handbag?

The warm-up set that I played for my dear guest, Derek Plaslaiko, at my "Headroom" event at Paloma.

Phonatic Live @ Paloma | 23.07.2022

We are blessed to welcome our first artist to our new Podcast series. We say welcome dear XDB and thanks for contributing this beautiful vinyl only mix!

XDB is Kosta Athanassiadis – German by birth and in residence, with Greek parentage. His roots are in the central German town of Göttingen. It was here that he began DJing in the early nineties; where he worked in a record shop; where he ran a radio show for five years; and the base from which he established the Metrolux record label in 2006. 

For many people, it was at this point that XDB appeared on their radar.  He has no shortage of technical skill but it’s his selection that truly shines – putting the music itself at the forefront, letting songs breathe when need be, and delivering plenty of head-scratching ‘what the hell is this track?’ moments. It’s on this that Kosta has built his reputation. 

When it comes to producing, Kosta favours a slow and steady work rate, opting to focus on quality control rather than record shop ubiquity. His DJing keeps him in the public eye, but one gets the sense that XDB prefers to operate in the shadows. There’s a refreshing lack of gimmickry to his approach – keeping it low-key allows him to be judged solely on the basis of talent. Arguably, it’s an innate quality – the way he wants to play it; the way that brings him most satisfaction, but it’s helped establish his reputation as an artist of considerable merit, winning the approval his audience and peers, alike.

"Kind of like we used to play on the radio or at Wonky (our monthly London night) - Not really mixed, but always using ambience and spoken words. Letting the songs play out in full." - Swayzak

Bleep Mix #266 - Swayzak

Full tracklist: bleep.com/features/bleep-mix-133-Vladimir-Ivkovic-Ivan-Smagghe

The duo of Vladimir Ivkovic and Ivan Smagghe deliver a feast of delights for lovers of far-out sonics and experimental electronics on their entry into Bleep’s mix series. Running close to three hours in length, the first third of their IDMEMO mix journeys into tripped-out drone, psychedelic reveries and outer-edges industrialism - tracks from seminal post-industrial outfits Nurse With Wound, Current 93 and Coil are all included. While this vibe is returned to throughout the subsequent tracks, Ivkovic and Smagghe also juxtapose it with some more beat-driven passages which veer between lush IDM and low-slung leftfield Balearicism/psychedelic house. The pair also find time to slip a couple of their own remixes into proceedings - indeed, the mix closes out with the ethereal, almost Arca-esque electro-balladry of Mickey van Seenus’s ‘What If (Smagghe & Cross Version)’.
