Bass Kittens

Dark Science Electro - Episode 761 - 4/12/2024 - Bass Kittens guest mix

Originally from Paris, SOD-90 started producing alongside his studies as a flutist at the renewed university of classical music from Berlin.
Combining his knowledge from a wide range of musical backgrounds with his experience as a professional instrumentalist, he crafted an intense sound, characterized by noisy textures, scorching synth lines, with distorted drums and twisted vocals. All this added to complex and dynamic arrangements.

After only a few years since he started producing, SOD-90 has already been supported by some of the biggest names on the scene and has released on Avoidant, Bipolar Disorder records, Emotional Voyage, with more in the pipeline very soon.
He intends to continue exploring creative approaches to production, aiming to evolve his style towards an increasingly powerful and unconventional aesthetic.

Which artists has influenced you the most?

- Container, Legowelt, L.F.T., Le Syndicat Electronique, DMX Crew and many more. Outside from the club music territory I’ve been influenced by artists in the likes of Rage against the machine, Portishead, Volition Immanent, The Prodigy, Dope Dod, Deli Girls, Sextile.

What new projects/releases with your participation are expected in the near future? 

- I have some releases planned on VA compilations in the coming months, including one on Co-Accused Records, featuring my track 'Saving Up for Botox', which I close my set with. I'm also excited to release more podcasts; the next one is planned on the massive imprint Bipolar Disorder rec.

Which artists/labels is more relevant to you now?

- My favorite labels at the moment are Zement, Mechatronica, Lifeforms, Libertine records and Avoidant to only name a few. 

What inspires you now to create music?

- Anger, clubbing, synthesizers, my loved ones, melancholy, discovering new artists, city lights, dogs

What set-up do you use when creating music?

- I mainly produce using hardware, including analog synthesizers and drum machines. 
I use gear from Analogue Solutions, Jomox, Behringer, JMT Synth, Korg, Malekko, Herbs&Stones and a bunch of vintage mixers and effect devices.

Strange But Dance Music #159: SOD-90

It's been 1 year of ParallaX and for the occasion our founder EKATA has recorded a mix with the very essence that encapsulates our soon to be Label and mix series. 
She has also featured 6 of her tracks that have just been released / are coming soon... ⚡️

EKATA is a London based DJ/Producer + Natural Selection Resident who's productions are characterised by their dark and atmospheric soundscapes, driven by pulsating rhythms and intricate synth work.

With support from the likes of Anthony Rother, Bloody Mary, Dave Clarke amongst others, EKATA's genuine and passionate approach to Electro is something that is rarely matched.

Determined to create music that is unearthly, idiosyncratic and exuding futurism of that of a sci-fi film, she always ensures a story is to be told in each track she produces.
She mainly sticks to the dark and eerie side of Electro in her productions & gigs, where she will take you on a dark and twisted journey through incredibly dystopian, ominous grooves and obvious sci-fi fixations which embody her carefully picked selections.
