Mathew Jonson presents Freedom Engine live at SGP 2023

For this instalment of the Rhythmic Culture podcast, we're excited to welcome the Canadian producer Mathew Jonson on the series. Whilst essentially a house and techno producer, Jonson has also been involved in many crossover projects including Cobblestone Jazz, Midnight Operator and the Modern Deep Left Quartet. For this instalment, Mathew presents a live recording of his project Freedom Engine at SGP 2023. 

"The recording is a mix of live improvisation via synthesizers and drum machines and tracks played from a DAW. Instruments from Roland (SH-101, TR-8S, SH-01A, T-8, and Demora), Elektron (Machinedrum), Midas (V240), and TC-Electronic (various effects) were used in the performance. 

The set also includes partial tracks and jams written and produced by Units and Measurements, Mathew Jonson, Plaid (MJ Remix of "Dragon Chase"), and Freedom Engine in collaboration with Magda."

'Into the 5D' is out now on Kilómetro 4.5: https://km4punto5.bandcamp.com/album/into-the-5d

The Finnish electronic music pioneer and all-time favorite Jori Hulkkonen is at the helm for the new Kaiku Mix, arriving just in time for Christmas. This year Jori celebrated the 30th anniversary of his first vinyl release, his 50th birthday as well as the release of the wonderful new album There Is Light Hidden In These Shadows (featuring John Grant, Tiga, Art Feynman and The Beloved among others).

The Kaiku Mix is an honest look at the material that Hulkkonen currently plays at his DJ gigs: the main focus is on interesting new music with exclusive versions of his own tracks thrown in.

Kaiku Mix #014 – Jori Hulkkonen

3h live-recording of my DJ set I played last Saturday at the wonderful Schneebrett Bar in Jena. The vibe was both chilled and cheerful, so I played a selection of my favorite deep & moody House tracks. It's a perfect soul warmer during the gray x-mas holidays.

Observatory 070 - Sungate [with Brian Kage & Moy Santana]

One of my very first DJ mixes which I just found on an old minidisc. Recorded sometime in 2001, less than a year after I first learned how to DJ. At that time I had about 30-40 records in total, and learned them inside out. Some obvious bangers on here which I still love to this day. 
Pic from my first year in College. Mix title the original, cringey pun intact.

Tracklist:
Technasia - Resilience
Silvery Sounds - Sound of K (Technasia Soft Mix)
The Unknown - The Morning After
Gaetano Parisio - Chapter 2
Samuel L Sessions - Lush
Oliver Ho - Listening to the Voice Inside (Gene Pool Remix)
Freelance Science - I Karumba
Leftfield - Phat Planet (Dave Clarke Remix)
Green Velvet - Flash (Danny Tenaglia Remix)
Adam Beyer - Remainings III (DK Remix)
John Selway - Love Electric
Slam Vs. Unkle - Narco Tourists (Slam Mix)
X-Funk - Voyager
Laurent Garnier - Sound of the Big Babou
Pantera - Planet Caravan

Old Rabbits Die Hard - Mix 2001

As I often play these records alongside newer releases, I realized most of those classics were more than 25 years old, I thought of compiling them together to show where dub tech comes from and how timeless most of these tracks are...Take a record like Round Four, discovered for a lot of people like me on Daniel Bell's mix (2000) The button down mind of Daniel Bell. More than 25 years onwards, you can look at a record like this, alongside Baby Ford and early Ricardo Villalobos as the blueprint for modern minimal and dubby electronic music, but that would imply that those genres later improved upon the overall formula. In reality, few got even close to as good as this. The origins of a genre is often more important than newer releases.  ''If you do not know where you come from, then you don't know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you're going...''  (Terry Pratchett, I Shall Wear Midnight)
