"For this mix, I wanted to try something a little bit out of my comfort zone. Instead of a dance mix I went with the downtempo & trip hop sounds I've been inspired by as of late."
Milla's group project, Purelink, just released their debut full length "Puredub" via Chicago's Lillerne Tapes, the outfit's take on ambient, dub, downtempo grooves, and more.

Welcoming Eora based DJ, producer and ridiculously good skateboarder Charles Fester aka @commandd to Passing Notes, who joined me in the studio for episode 168. Another talent emerging from the golden lockdown era of producers, Command D is an up and comer deserving of a direct line to everyone’s watch list. Drawing creative inspiration from the space between the digital realm and the natural world, Command D’s deft productions showcase a sophisticated balance between driving deep tech, rhythmic complexity and hypnotic atmospherics. His immediately captivating debut EP ‘Clone Dialogue’ recently graced the catalogue of bass-leaning label @bodypromise. A four track journey which introduces listeners to Command D’s already established sound - expect contemporary takes on the classic sounds of dub techno, tech house, bass and electro.

Banging dnb infusion from Melbourne/ Naarm local Julian Gelder aka Dividens ( @user-826629965-550806120 ) for number ninety six.

Julian is quickly building a name for himself locally and abroad with his crisp, classy and unique modern style dnb/bass/dub style productions, with recent releases on local imprints @secretworldlabel & @purespacefm 

This mix is the perfect introduction of Julian's sound to the Animalia community. Animalia's dnb explorations will go deeper and further with a Dividens EP on it's way!

So excited to share this with everyone and thanks again for the hot mix Julian!

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Ello, I’m Jackson. Pronouns are He/Him. Residing in Eora/Sydney

Who/what currently inspires you music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

Water and light mostly 

What is your favorite party/collective where you reside and why?

Too many faves. Some heavy hitters off the top are Umami/Echo Flats/Heavenly/Community Chest. They are %100 in it for the experience. Community Chest is a joint force crew of about 7 great crews from Sydney – It’s kinda like when the power rangers come together to make that big robot fighter guy

What was your best moment at the supermarket?

They were playing Bill Withers in a Woollies once and it got me

What is your most recent favorite DJ mix and why?

Max D – Indie Rock on C- was maybe the last one that got me good. Max D only plays by Max D’s rules

Any advice to upcoming DJs/producers? 

Enjoy your life & be kind to others

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

More love and respect, always

Number #109 coming from someone very special, someone who has done so much for the local scene and someone I can safely say has remained a big inspiration to me since my late teenage years. Harold ! @djharoldd

Harold is known locally and abroad for his incredible array of outputs. From DJ'ing (and being widely recognised in Melbourne as being one of the best). to running the ever incredible @steeplejackrec, and running some of the most iconic local events (Pleasure Planet...!). 

I have a very distinct memory of feeling truely inspired & deciding to move to Melbourne whilst dancing to Harrison's closing set at the first party I ever went to in Melbourne back in 2014 - Pleasure Planet's third birthday at Lounge. Harrison is a guiding force in the scene and is incredibly supportive of those around him.. but most of all.. he's a mastermind Dj. Enjoy this wild mix in Harrison's signature style <3 Glitchy.. deep IDM outer-worldly heaven. 

Thank you again for the mix Harrison!

@tangeladj
Talia Jimenez aka Tangela is a force to be reckoned with - highly skilled DJ, host of the wonderful ‘Citrus’ on FBI radio and co-founder of a sleuth of boundary pushing events including dstreet, club < and now the newly established minutiae festival. Having these many hats and excelling at them all demonstrates Tangela’s intimate knowledge of her audiences and ability to tailor exceptional experiences accordingly. For dancefloors, that usually means a focus on generating energetic narratives combining enveloping soundscapes, pervasive depth and hypnotic detail to effortlessly guide dancers on spirited expeditions. With deep and diverse involvement in all sections of the electronic music community in Eora and beyond, I’m very excited to chat to Tangela about how she does it all. Tangela joined me for an interview and guest mix for episode 249 of Passing Notes live on PBSfm.

@fred-czital @harmony-rec

I first became aware of the Harmony label when they released ‘Natives’ an EP by prolific techno producer Alan Backdrop in 2019. Since this time, I’ve followed their lead, been enchanted by their always impressive musical outputs and enamoured - yet only from afar by their magical parties. Made up of multi-talented individuals, as a collective they coalesce as a group of kindred souls united by a shared wellspring of boundless creativity. Their events are always a spectacle, whether collaborating with the likes of Midgar, Kalahari Oyster Cult and X or running it solo, they have the power and passion to transform almost any space into a uniquely vibrant, community-minded party place. From UNESCO-listed libraries, gymnasiums and forest floors, no event is too big or too out there for Harmony to pull off. Across their music, events and DJ sets, they ooze a sense of profound intent whilst being effortlessly playful. In a world that can sometimes feel unnecessarily, individualistic the Harmony crew continues to shine a light on the power of bringing together our creative minds.

A studio full of life marked episode 256 of Passing Notes - a whole crew interview was following by this red hot mix by Alfred Czital, broadcast live on PBSfm 106.7 on the 2nd Feb, 2024.

@nervenerve

NERVE (RES, A Colourful Storm, Steeplejack) is the guise of Naarm-based electronic general practitioner Joshua Wells. As a DJ, producer and live artist NERVE makes and performs a limitless brand of techno that explores notions of drum and bass, breaks, noise, electro, dark ambient, and industrial. NERVE’s live sets are undeniably body music, steely textures punctuated by drum and bass inflicted rhythm workouts capable of whipping any crowd into a frenzy.

NERVE joined me live for 260 of Passing Notes with this guest mix of incredibly hot and heavy drum and bass.
