In their own words - 

"Shift Work wring everyday sounds into something you can dance to. Snippets of woven speech, audio fragments stitched with waves of pulsing mid-priced synths - the noise of syncopation, cheap art, ringing ears, cracked snares, accidents and oscillations. And some very tidy wiring."


Mastered by James Savage.

Released on 12" and digital, July 7th 2014. Distributed by Kompakt.

Various Artists - Drum Attack EP (Lost dj weapons from the 1990s).

A1) Illumination - The Way Out Is The Way (1998)

AA1) Mr. Marvin - I Want You (1993)
AA2) Fuel - Rigid (1995)

Optimo Trax 011 is all about the drums.

This Illumination track (an Anglo-Norse pairing of Nicholas Stilltoe and Per ‘Mental Overdrive’ Martinsen) from 1998 has been a long time favourite of Twitch's that can instantly change the atmosphere in a club, sounds like very little else and is eminently mixable / great fun to mix with. It was only when the master arrived that the realisation came that for all these years he had been playing it at the wrong speed. It is meant to be slow but Twitch had always played it at 45 instead of 33. The vinyl version will be pressed so it can be played at either speed while the digital will be the sped up to the 45 version. It starts off soft and dubbed out until the almost overwhelming bass tones appear only to make way for apocalyptic drum cascades that on a good sound system sound like the end of the world. 


Mr. Marvin's "I Want You" came out on R&S offshoot Global Cuts in 1993. Made by Italian, Marvin Sasha who under the name Sasha made a great series of timeless EPs around the same time, this is a hypnotic tribal gem with seemingly random, panning vocal interjections. Great in the mix but much more than a mere mixing tool.

Lastly is Fuel's "Rigid" which came out on the UK label SCR in 1995 at the time when Chicago's Relief Records were taking over the more discerning djs' record boxes. This sounds like it shares some DNA with one of the many crazy tracks or remixes Green Velvet was making at this time; Industrial strength, stroboscopic snare tattoos that will have you reaching out for the smoke machine's "on" button every time.

All three have been tried and tested countless times since they were originally released and come with an Optimo Trax guarantee that if played in the right way, at the right point in the night they will not fail to work on the dancefloor.

Optimo Trax OT 011 is released on 12" and digital,  Jan 2015. Distribution by Kompakt and Rub A Dub. Mastered by James Savage.

CLUBAST 093 comes in heavy with a mix from some of my favorite producer/djs in Philly, @zillasonacid They delivered that perfect Zillas sound that I can only describe as Basement House & Rolling Sleazy Techno.

Since the 2019 release of their EPs Black Cat (Optimo Music) and She Takes NRG (Ivan Smagghe’s Les Disques de la Mort), the Zillas have been busy building a steady catalog of music for labels like Polari, Nocturne, Dischi Autunno, Inside Out, Multi Culti, Throne of Blood, Microdosing, and more. Along the way, they’ve garnered support from futuristic fellow travelers like Roman Flügel, Dixon, Jennifer Cardini, Justin Strauss, Bradley Zero, Sean Johnston, and many others. Deep in the studio or out in the club, the Zillas mix slow-motion death disco, dubbed-out drum machine music, and of course ACID to excite party people from all planets.

As always you can stream all the mixes on the iTunes Podcast app or Player.FM

WOEI FM w/ Richelle Soigni - 18th April 2025

With just a month to go until the next installment of 33 Giri, we're super excited to share with you the recording of Grey People's set from May. I unfortunately could be there so listenting back through this mix has been a huge combination of missing out and "of course he pulled the freakiest cuts". For anyone that missed out on this like me, Grey People is playing a 4x2 set with the supreme party starter Justin Long in Smartbar on July 11th, I'll see you there.

=INTERVIEW=
Q1. How and where was the mix recorded? Could you tell us about the idea behind the mix?
This mix was recorded at one of our HAND parties, we recorded it on a Bozak with a 4 band isolator on the master output, no eq per channel…keeping it simple :) we also use some dorrough meters to keep the levels relatively constant.
The idea is to basically capture and hopefully express some of the magic we often experience at Have A Nice Day with the wonderful crowd and vibes. I think there’s something special that will always be felt in a mix if it is recorded at a party with 200 people enjoying themselves and certain freedoms instead of if it's recorded with us alone in a studio or in our living room.
　
Q1. 今回のミックスはどこでどのように収録しましたか？今回のミックスを作りあげる上でのアイデアがあれば教えてください
これは僕たちのHANDパーティーでレコーディングされたんだ。シンプルな方がいいからイコライザ―は使わず、Bozakとアイソレーター４つをマスターアウトに、レベルを出来るだけ一定に保つためにdorrough meterを使って録音したよ。
ミックスを作っていく上で僕たちはHANDでよく体験する魔法のようなものを表現したくて、200人以上の人が最高に楽しんでる中レコーディングされたこのミックスは普段スタジオで作ってるものと違って、時間が経ってもずっと特別に感じられるものになっていると思うよ。
