Dub Explorations 085

Broadcast 2022 / 04 / 25

Dub Explorations 085 is here and we are extremely proud to present our latest guest and one of the hardest working DJ's and Producers in the game - OHM

On the forefront of the techno scene in northern Europe for nearly 25 years, 
Icelandic's producer and DJ Ohm, 
has continued to stay true to the spirit of techno. 
Thru the 1990s, Ohm learned a deep foundation of the growing worldwide techno surge that by 1999, 
he felt he was creative and eager enough to start writing his own music. 
Success came quickly with his debut; a collaboration with fellow Icelandic legend Exos on Force Inc records. 
This led to over 20 releases since on standout labels like Thule records, Rawax, Kontakt, Solid Groove., Taped Artifact, Ranges, Vade mecum , 
Vuo records and AE Recordings, and AE recordings Ltd, which he co-ran with Octal Industries and Thor from Thule Records.
A chance meeting in a Berlin records store with Andrey Puskarev and Pola led to releasing some music on the acclaimed All In Records and their sublabel Nilla. Shortly after, 
a release on Andrey's own label Luck of Access with Octal Industries followed. 
Now Copenhagen based, his DJ career is equally impressive having been a regular guest at the hottest spot in his area, Culture Box. 
In the past, gigs at Germany's Tresor along with various places all around Europe to clubs back home in Iceland, 
Ohm's style of DJing is the culmination of over 30 years in the techno scene. Being a beloved personality in the scene, 
Recently, Ohm has started his own imprint, OHM Series. 
This label focuses on having releases that feature a mixture of well-beloved veterans and some vibrant new names pushing techno's sonic boundaries.
Highlighting this balance is a prime example where his techno integrity is the cornerstone of its operation. 
He's blending tried and true techno sounds with techno's next visionaries which we can all agree that is a worthwhile endeavor for the direction. 
Ohm also runs two shows on Timeline music online platform. 
One showcases some of the best Danish artists for the last 2 years and a second show sees him playing the latest promo's he receives from industry connections and friends. 
So, what does the future hold for Ohm? More of it all in short. More new Ohm music productions and remixes. 
More top-notch music on his label OHM Series. More DJ gigs and more online shows. 
More innovating thru his own interpretation of all thing's techno.

GREYSCALE Special 044 - Quadrant Soundscape

Quadrant Soundscape presents In Focus 007

The 7th instalment of our In:Focus Series places the spotlight on a very specific point in time - The Early Deepchord records years.

In the late 1990s the Deepchord record label was co-founded by Rod Modell & Mike Schommer in Detroit, Michigan. After just four years and achieving far more success than initially anticipated, DeepChord Records wound down operations. For this In Focus we want to concentrate specifically on the work that Rod and Mike did before they disbanded.

Across the Dub Techno scene the name Deepchord carries the highest of gravitas. Elite level quality, and considered by many to be, alongside Basic Channel, the blueprint of the genre.

So much has been written about Deepchord over the years, and we're not here to repeat what's been said (you can check out a great interview with Mike from a few years ago here - inn8.net/interview-with-mike-schommer-deepchord/ ), we're here to celebrate the music and we hope that through this session we have done that.

Artist : Luke Hess [DeepLabs / FXHE / Planet-e / Echocord]

Recorded LIVE at "Dub Nation" @ About Blank, Berlin, July 28, 2024.

Vinyl Only

LIVE recording mastered by kagemastering.com

We open our series with an artist we have been huge fans of for well over a decade - Luke Hess.

Born in 1980 in Metro Detroit and subject to the city's mid-90's warehouse parties, Luke Hess has harnessed a deep appreciation for electronic music and the expression of the underground movement.  His background in mathematics and engineering has given him a scientific approach to the dance-floor, using frequencies, tones, and soundscapes to transform surroundings and mood.

This incredible mix was recorded just a few weeks ago at Kenneth Christiansens "Dub Nation" event at About Blank, Berlin. Luke showcases his skills throughout, with tight, precise blends that he's made his signature. We are truly honoured to have one of our favourite ever artists open this series.

Artist: Federsen [Alt Dub / Fifth Interval / Lempuyang / Greyscale]

Our fourth journey around the sonic sphere is captained by one of our favourite producers and Dj's , based in San Francisco but originating from Scotland, we are proud to present one of the most consistent and hard working producers in the game , It's Federsen.

Federsen, real name Chris Kelly, has been releasing music for the last 15 years and he has become a true master of Dub infused minimalism. He has crafted and moulded his own sound with every release he puts out. You know when you hear a Federsen track. Solid kicks and baselines, combined with beautiful sprinklings of crisp, rich percussion and a warm analog feel, but most importantly … Groove.   

His deep, dubby, and groovy records have seen releases on the likes of ETUI, Avant Roots, Lempuyang, Mixcult, Modernism, Ohm Series, Greyscale. All The big hitters, as well as his own label, Fifth Interval. 

  His most recent project is his new Label Alt Dub. With 2 releases now under his belt the future looks great for the label. The first release, a split EP with Hidden Sequence is one that been on heavy rotation in the Dub Explorations studio. For the second release he teams up with the legendary Stephen Hitchell aka Cv313 in a true meeting of Detroit and San Fran. Both artists rework each others tracks and the results are clear for all to hear.   

We are honoured to be able to host Chris on our platform again and look forward to seeing where he goes next and what’s to come from Alt Dub.

Artist: Anthony Georges Patrice [Ausblick / Lempuyang / Refraction Rec / Ohm Series]

Our 8th journey of the Frontier series is captained by Mr AGP aka Anthony Georges Patrice. AGP is the brains behind the expertly curated Ausblick Label and the founder of the Lessenorg Radio show and Podcast. He is also an underground hero of the Berlin scene playing regularly at clubs like Golden Gate and Club Der Visionare. 

As a producer his sound is all about rhythm and texture with a dubby swing to it, theres usually a nod towards minimalism. His Redrop alias tends to lean more towards this stripped back sound.   

As a Dj he can be found floating between all things house, Deep and Dub but never pinned down to one sound, he has a vast musical knowledge and isn’t afraid to showcase it.

Artist: Pedro Capelossi [Refraction Rec / Seven Villas / OHM Series]

For our 9th mix of The Frontier series we welcome Brazilian born, Barcelona based, Refraction Records commander in chief - Pedro Capelossi.

Over the last decade Pedro has forged a distinctive sound which focuses on inventive use of atmosphere and rhythm, drawing the lines between global dance cultures without adhering to any fixed formula.  

Pedro is best known for his releases on Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas label. This distinctive label is one which cant be tied down to one particular sound, but tends to float between all things Dub House / Dub Techno / Deep House.

  In 2023 he founded his own musical imprint REFRACTION RECORDS, representing some of the world’s most avant-garde visual artists, designers and musicians. Blurring the boundaries between house, techno and its closely related derivatives.

  For this Frontier mix Pedro has presented a beautifully compiled selection with his signature sound, deep, dubby, atmospheric and emotive throughout. It features a lot of music from Refraction records, with a lot of unreleased forthcoming music. Its a joy to listen to and one we'll be going back to again and again.

Artist: Giacomo Pellegrino [Detroit Side / Greyscale / Ohm Series / Mixcult / spclnch / Ausblick]

We are proud to present another musical frontier. This time we turn our attention to the Italian Dj, producer and head of the Detroit Side Label - Giacomo Pellegrino.   

Giacomo began his musical journey aged 14 when he learned how to DJ. Growing up he listened to a lot of disco and funk and all kinds of 70s and 80s dance music. He often arranged shows and sets for his friends until he was old enough to play at clubs. As his music knowledge and tastes developed he eventually moved into the realms of House and Techno.  

  In much the same way as ourselves, Giacomo has a huge affinity for all things Detroit and in particular , Detroit Techno. Hence the birth of his own label - Detroit Side. A Vinyl only label which he carefully curates and is home to the likes of Delano Smith, Franck Roger, Nick Beringer, S.A.M and of course Giacomo Himself.   

As a producer , Giacomo is someone we’ve been big fans of since we discovered his music, which features regularly in our mixes and radio shows. Through his productions, which are almost solely created using a variety of hardware, he showcases his extensive abilities and talents, often taking inspiration from nature as well has things from his everyday life.

For this Frontier mix, Giacomo has presented a 60 minute journey, which begin with some really deep atmospheric sounds before teasing in some super deep pulsing kicks. As the mix develops he continues to drop in ambient moments, followed by more deep rhythms and sounds.   

We are honoured to be able to host an artist like Giacomo on our platform and we look forward to seeing how his career progresses in the coming years.

Artist: Ohm [OHM Series /  Kontakt / Thule Recordings / Æ Recordings]

For the seventh edition of the frontier we turn to our good friend, musical power-house and one of the genuinely nicest guys on the scene. It’s Bjarnar Jonsson aka OHM.

DJ and producer Ohm is one of the leading figures in the Icelandic contemporary techno scene. Widely associated with iconic labels such as Thule Records, Force Inc, Rawax, Luck of access ,Taped artifact,Nilla and Kontakt !

Ohm stays true to his roots by consistently innovating his interpretation of techno music, integrating soul and innovation with the scene.   

We were lucky and honoured to be able to invite OHM over to Manchester in early 2024 to play an incredible back to back set with another musical mastermind, Kontakt Records boss - Kvadrant. All in the intimate setting of Eastern Bloc Records.  

You can check that mix out here - 

https://on.soundcloud.com/bjhA2Gcd7eYSEcTr6  

For this frontier mix Bjarnar has presented an hour of vinyl only records that he is currently feeling. Including some stuff you might not have heard before. This recording certainly holds true to his own style and sound and is expertly put together, we wouldn’t expect anything less.

Artist: Dubrovnik (UK) [Greyscale / OHM Series / Verdant / Mixcult / Lempuyang]

Our 10th voyage into sound is brought to you on this occasion by Chris Currie, better know as Dubrovnik (UK). The Glasgow based DJ & Producer has really been flexing his musical muscles over the last few years with his releases on Greyscale and Verdant, as well has some incredible tracks for OHM series and the mighty Lempuyang. 

His sound is hard to put into one specific box, which is always a good thing. Dubbed out house and techno, euphoric and uplifting while maintaining a level of deepness most can only aspire to. His sound has a uniqueness to it which in this current climate of saturation is the highest compliment we can pay. 

For this Frontier mix Chris has turned in a truly epic hour and 45 minute journey. He kicks  things off in the realms of deep house and heady, atmospheric dubbed out electronica. Before slowly moving through the gears into some real heads down dub techno that wouldn’t be put of place in an abandoned Berlin warehouse. He caps things off with some classy dub leaning techno cuts culminating in some straight up ravey bangers that will get your head nodding.   

We want to thank Chris for this contribution to the series, he certainly got the memo of what we asked for and has knocked it out of the park.

Artist: Star_Dub [StarDub / OHM Series / Rawax / VUO Records / spclnch]

Our 11th Expedition takes us to the sonic planet of Matthias Schildger, and specifically his Star_Dub Alias. No Stranger to the scene, Matthias has been an artist that we have been huge admirers of for many years now. His Star_Dub releases very rarely leave our bags and are a stable in our vinyl mixes, anyone who has attended our Eastern Bloc parties will attest to this. To be able to welcome him to the Frontier is a honour for us. 

Matthias is a German DJ and producer based in Offenbach and co-founder of Mainrecords. He is an incredibly versatile artist with a whole host of alias’ that showcase his breadth and depth of sound. For this particular Frontier mix we requested one in the style of Star_Dub. Through this moniker he is able to explore all things deep and dubby whether that be techno or house.

Matthias Schildger's journey began at the age of 8 in 1995 when he was recording tapes of a German radio show, Hr3 Clubnight. By the age of 12, he made his first steps into music production, using a PlayStation to experiment with sounds. 

His unconventional approach yielded promising results, prompting him to delve deeper into music production. By 2006 he had released his debut record. During that year, Matt developed his style and separated it into many different aliases under which he plays and produces, such as Binary Operator, Star_Dub, CNTRL, Polyfan Polyphenix, or his real name Matthias Schildger.

Artist: Quadrant Soundscape [Dub Explorations]

For the 13th episode of the Frontier we have decided to step up and present our own interpretation of what the series is. The Frontier is a series that means a lot to us, it's something that we have talked about wanting to do for a long time and have been very careful in how we want to curate it. From the music, to the artwork, and to the artists we've invited on, every decision has been carefully thought about. 

So with that being said we are proud to present our own mix, coming in at just over 2 hours. We feel this is a good representation of our sound and how we like to develop and build things up over the course of a few hours. 

As with all our Frontier mixes we have not included the tracklist. Feel free to comment below and we will let you know what is being played.  

We hope you enjoy.

Artist: Hidden Sequence [Mosaic / Lempuyang / Alt Dub / Moon Garden / Silent Season]

Our 12th journey takes until into the joint minds of Paul Simmons and Stefano Ugliano (6884) aka… Hidden Sequence. The Duo have been playing and producing together since they met in 2020. Individually they both have their own unique sound and skill sets. Paul, born and raised in London, has been DJ’ing across the world for over two decades while Stefano , is an Italian born self confessed studio dweller and sound sculptor. As is often the case with duos of this nature, what they bring to the table is even greater than the individual parts. Their music has been a breath of fresh air within the Dub Techno community since their arrival on the scene.   

Production wise they have had a string over incredible releases over the last few years with music coming 200 Records, Mosaic, Lempuyang, Alt Dub, Ausblick, Moon Garden and OHM Series. Quite the resume for this relatively new collaboration. Having had some great conversations with the guys, we are extremely excited to hear what they have planned and forthcoming over the next weeks and months.   

For their contribution to the Frontier series they have turned in an incredible hour of music. We float through some beautiful ambient cuts, some bass wobbling, head nodding Dub, Roots & Reggae, and onward into the world for 4/4 dub techno. They really went to town on this mix and we are honoured that they have packed in lots of unreleased material.   

We would like to thank Hidden Sequence for this mix, we are honoured to be able to host such a talented pair. Keep an eye out for everything they have coming up as it’s not to be slept on.

Artist: The Open Circle [Greyscale / Crossfade Sounds/ Axaminer / OHM Series / ODrex]

Our 17th Frontier journey comes from Belgian producer Geert Thirry better known as - The Open Circle. We have been big fans of The Open Circle since we discovered his music a few years ago. He is an incredible producer and very versatile artist, who’s music can span from deep ambient soundscapes, to low slung chuggy dub techno all the way up to full dance floor fist pumping Techno. His production is mostly done using a Modular synthesizer and some other hardware. Then Layered textures and evolving rhythms are built to define the signature style with analog warmth and hypnotic depth.  

Geert has been producing music for many years, His first EP was actually released back in 2003 on the UK label ” Lost Language “as a double vinyl. Released under the alias Karada the release was more in the melodic Techno sphere. Since then his style and sound has developed into the deep Dub Techno he is known for today. His productions have been gathering more and more acclaim with his recent release on the legendary Greyscale placing him firmly towards to the top echelons of the Dub Techno world. 

We are honoured to be able to welcome Geert to the Dub Explorations and Frontier family and look forward to hearing his future productions.

Here are a few words from Wilson:

"This mix is a live and uncut recording of my set from Nimbus Live @ Piccadilly central (4/5/25). 
Playing earlier on in the day, on a Sunday, gave me the chance to dig into loads of the deep house and Detroit leaning house records that I love and collect a lot of, but don’t get the chance to play out a lot. 

This mix was recorded using 2 x technics 1210's, 2x CDJ 2000NSX and 1x Pioneer DJM A9"

The Quadrasphere 012 - Monosphere

The Quadrasphere 014 - Morion

We are pleased to introduce our friend Morion, with a full on assault from his turntables!! 

He is a 90s kid with all the love for the underground techno and the ethos in a DJ mix that comes with it, Morion likes to explore the world of dark, hypnotic techno and deep industrial techno/electro through his DJ sets.

Like a nomad his sound travels through the abyss of the underground in berlin. Having performed in many clubs and endless secret never announced darkrooms since 2012, and with recent and past albums on Diffuse Reality, Subsist records, naked lunch, r3volution records, soblazn, trau-ma and Andrew Till's Machine his journey into the sprawling catacombs of techno needs to be heard.

All raw energy on this one, strap in and get lost into his Vinyl only mix for the Quadrasphere!!

Quadrant Soundscape is the meeting of two minds. Tommy Harrison aka Asphalt Layer & Wilson Logan aka Scavenger. The pair have been playing together since 2014 with each one bringing their own particular sound to the project. Known best for their long running radio show Dub Explorations, the pair play some of the best in underground Dub Techno, electro, downbeat and ambient sounds. When it comes to their DJ sets you can expect them to be diving between their records, CDJ’s and Ableton, with the goal of creating an immersive deep sound, with rolling baselines and sprinklings of sci-fi ambience. Playing back to back they push each other with every record they play, with the next selection often being picked on the fly, to create some truly unique sets. Inspired by the pioneers of the past, their sound is heavily influenced by German Dub Techno, Detroit Techno and UK Bass.

Individually, Tommy produces music as Asphalt Layer. His deep, electronic and dubby sound being heard on multiple record labels worldwide. Incorporating analog machines and field recordings to generate the many noises he uses in his productions, along with that 90's Jungle influence, his sound is very recognizable.

And Wilson has begun a new alias, Scavenger, where he dives deep into the murky, experimental and dark, trippy techno world to produce very unique mixes. This alias allows Wilson to experiment more with his records and sound, often performing in a dark room on 4 decks alone.

With a rich history of playing records and putting parties on in Manchester, hosting the likes of Remco Beekwilder, Ambivalent, Radioactiveman, Detroit Techno Militia, Mark Archer, Jerome Hill, El Choop, ODrex Records and Conforce, the boys intend to keep pushing that vibe they believe in and love.
