Pace Yourself w/ Jank Inc. & Walden S + Dance____98 (SKYLAB E5)

Ever feel like you're about to crash? You’re not alone.
Ceaseless cycles of the crash and its many forms map our history:

● economic: the sudden collapse of stock markets.
● demographic: the sudden decline of populations.
● hardware: the sudden malfunctioning of family computers after using Limewire.
● emotional: the sudden realization that you have been mooching baccy from crusties at a clatty afters for 3 days.

Despite its endless semblances, the og crash is the car crash. Trailing streamers of electric emotion can be found in the ritual collision of the automobile. Sites of our collective imagination, their rhythms of destruction are understood as terminal symptoms of the technological age; as a metallic rite of passages - vehicles of liminal liberation & sexual rebirth; or for the laymen amongst us - a tasty insurance claim $$. Whatever ur two cents, the car crash seems to be our unequivocal condition.

The cult of the car crash is well and truly alive - in eerie lay-bys, empty-car parks and busy intersections - they bring us together at high velocity. Together with the original B, Vani-T, this is a collection of tracks 2 brace for the high-impact - sexy, sincere and seminal.

This one goes out to the whiplash kru. We'll be taking you through for the first hour followed by Vani-T in the second xo

Release Details:
Title: Gqom Oh! X Crudo Mixtape
Catalogue Number: GQOM 003
Label: Gqom Oh!
Format: Tape/Digital
Release Date: 25 July 2016


The word Crudo [ˈkruːdo] in Italian translates as “raw” and this is the overarching concept around the latest Gqom Oh! Release. 

It is set to be in collaboration with Crudo Volta - a young Rome-based collective who focused on visual curation and dj culture. The mixtape is the soundtrack of the Woza Taxi documentary. Making the documentary in April 2016 - whilst visiting his artists and their families in Durban - label boss Nan Kolè painstakingly narrowed down this selection of tracks for the release. The trip lent a tremendous amount of in-sight to Nan Kolè, granting him both a detailed and broad view of the Gqom scene and what Gqom means to the youth of the township (for they consist the core music makers and listeners of Gqom).

Their unique sound, which took Europe by storm at the start of 2016, is a way for the youth in the township to express themselves - something that music does the world over - but moreover enables them to express their pride and experiences in their Zulu culture and history. Mawbestana from Forgotten Souls gave some insight into how the music was made. He said in the documentary “…Everyone thinks we have a mega studio with huge speakers but we are just ‘Hlanganisa’..” Hlanganisa is a zulu word literally translated as 'putting together'; This refers to creating something out of the few elements available to you “…Just like when you scrap the bottom of a pan to get some food out of it..” cited Mawbestana. 

The release features 14 tracks showcasing different and new music from Durban  - spanning Core Tribe through Sgubhu to Gqom. The 90 minute tape will consist of two sides, with Side A containing seven tracks and Side B containing a continuous mix and a digital download code granting access to the entire compilation. 

The tape will be release in ‘package’ format designed by Crudo Volta alongside a photography book with the best pictures from the trip to Durban by Tommaso Cas-sinis, a limited edition t-shirt and access to an online premiere of the documentary.

Jake Conlon - Brick House

I haven't posted a live DJ set for a long time - so here's one from this summer's Rural Festival held in the mountains not far from Nagano in Japan. It was my 2nd year at the festival, and I had an amazing time playing from 2.30-5am, with my set starting in pitch black and ending with the sun emerging for the last moments of the set. Big shouts to all the crowd and of course the organisers for having me back!

Pace Yourself w/ Jank Inc. & Walden S + 12th Isle (SKYLAB E3)

One more time with feeling.

 1/2 of YS, 1/3 of Astral VIP & a cherished member of the PY family, Nipuna joins us in the first hour for one of hardcore feeling in the place: 

I had this dream - I could hear the galloping coming my way. The dark knights of the soul, riders of the realm. They were coming to present me a coin, a choice, "heads or tails?"... "Headz", I said. With a flick of a thumb, the coin spiraled into the air in slow motion. In a state of suspended time, the coin revealed that it had many sides and perspectives, so many beyond heads and tails - almost infinity like. It continued to spin, like a Rodolex, demonstrating every possibility for what felt like an eternity. Transfixed, I stared as it went from slow to fast, so fast at this point that it formed into a black sphere. I put my palm out underneath it, which is when they told me, "the world comes from shadow... with precision." The coin landed in my palm and I clenched my fist. I awoke instantly. I never saw which way that coin landed! My laptop was next to me, and 'Blue Flowers' by Doctor Octagon was playing on Youtube - Nipuna 

Pace & Luv xx
