LES ATELIERS CLAUS W/ PAK YAN LAU @ Kiosk Radio 25.06.2021

Her penchant for driving, mesmeric techno has driven @djjulietfox 's rapid evolution in recent years. Releases on prominent labels such as Filth On Acid and Kraftek have elevated her profile further and led her to be booked in many venues across the planet. 

Juliet’s productions have found their own identity with each featuring her unique and trippy vocals wrapped into her ever experimental hooks and basslines. Over the past two years, the Australian artist has spent her time exploring her musical tastes and learning new production techniques in her studio based out of Berlin. Her love of hardware and synthesizers has grown and they have featured heavily in her most recent productions. 

Juliet Fox has recorded an exclusive mix for our DETECT series. Link to this is in our bio.

Aymeric De Tapol - Polyrythms - Second Sundays & Interview

Sometimes the right things just fall into the right place and so it happened with an old track by Thomas P. Heckmann under his Drax disguise, named Section 2. Originally released as Techno’s first ever 7inch, it was very popular in 1993 and paved the way for the huge follow ups like Drax Three -Phosphene and the hugely influential and successful Drax LTD.II - Amphetamine.

But read what Mark Broom has to say about this new version and enjoy :
„I was a fan of your Drax material & I had the original red picture disc, had that track on my hard drive & it fitted perfect to the track I was making at the time, sent it to Alan Fitzpatrick a few years ago & he would always ask me if it will ever get released, then out of the blue he sent me his edit & the rest as they say is history!!“

Some selected feedback:

Mona (aka Mona Briko) has been a traveling organizer and programmer in Brussels since 2012, specializing in experimental music.


Emerging from the creative depths of Barlok (occupied from 2011 to 2017), Mona sharpened her auditory sensibilities at a KKnul concert at Magasin 4 and during a Bruitisme holiday camp in Nancy in 2015. Nurtured within the walls of La Senne (occupied from 2015 to 2020), she took her first steps as a curator, enjoying genuine freedom for three years. What began as a playful venture into organizing and programming evolved into a deep passion and commitment.  With a perpetually shifting set of keys, Mona now moves fluidly through Brussels’ alternative venues, curating radical and uncompromising lineups.

 

Completely self-taught in musicology, she relies solely on her instincts, often disregarding technicalities and virtuosity. This approach is reflected in her occasionally messed-up but fully unapologetic discourse. Her aesthetic preferences have evolved over time, yet a common thread remains: a focus on intrusion, amplitude, intensity, and tension.

In recent years, she shared a sound system named Dolores with D’incise, joined the team at the TTT label, and been entrusted with programming the Haunted Folklore series at Recyclart.

ANGIE QQ NTS MIX: SPIRIT PEOPLE

"2/1 (Night Flight Mix)"

A cover version of Brian Eno's "2/1" from Ambient 1: Music for Airports. 
Vocals: Keiku.  Loops, tamboura, Tibetan bells, processing: Gio.

This originally appeared on the compilation "Minimalism" on UK label Law &  Auder in 1998. It was recorded shortly after finishing the album "Shringara". I had been reading Erich Tamm's wonderful book on Brian Eno, and he gave a fairly detailed analysis of how Eno put together the Music for Airports album. I thought the best way to understand how that music was made was to try it, so this track was an experiment in seeing how close I could get to Eno's sound. (With a few typically Makyo-esque elements thrown in.) Instead of tape loops, we used a sampler with sequencer loops of varying lengths triggering the samples. The experiment would later be developed on "Swara Mandala" in the similarly Eno-ish track "Skin as Soft as Starlight". With love to Prof. Eno.

Makyo: "2/1 (Night Flight mix)"

Hear / Sound impressions inspired by Haikus

With a mix of live made concrete sounds, archival online sounds, instruments and voice, we trail the haikus through different moods.

What I miss most during this strange period is making music with others, travelling for it and sharing it. My focus is pretty limited these days, and haikus are like little candies. Full of images (and thus sounds), short, but savory.

Travelling to long ago times, real or imagined places, in dreams or short stories. Making sense and non sense, only to create a poetic sound environment that tickles the imagination.

Noise, words, ears.

Join in my escape of our current times and tune in together.
