I’ve been wearing custom plugs for a couple of years, I am on dance floors almost every week and this means I can party safely when I’m twice my current age.
I started mixing this year and I’ll make an effort to play with plugs in! ♥️

As usual, inspiring! Respect for artists like Eris who truly care about getting it right.

Call Super at Organik Festival 2023

"I always want to challenge myself as a musician." The DJ, producer and T4T LUV NRG cofounder talks about her new live set and overcoming hearing loss live from MUTEK.

Eris Drew is something of a mentor to many, including people she's never met. Her words on psychedelics, the ritual of dancing and other topics have become near-gospel for many fans, and it's always a treat to hear her speak on practically any topic. While many of her discussions veer towards the esoteric or spiritual, when it came time for our live RA Exchange at MUTEK, she wanted to get down to brass tacks about making and playing music.

Ahead of the first North American performance of her stunning live show, Drew sat down with RA's music editor, Andrew Ryce. She spoke at length about her live show and DJing—including her old-school style of mixing she calls "riding the pitch"—and the trials and tribulations of proofing stages and booths for turntable use, hearing protection and more. She spoke with all the authority and feeling she usually does, with a deep, technical knowledge that makes this talk almost as much a tutorial as it was a conversation. Listen to the episode in full.

Fact Mix 934: FAFF (Nov '23)

No one like Hessle Audio's grandmaster could have better welcomed sound scouters on a 24-hour (mind)trip to the island of Spandau. Listen back to this testament of impeccable UK mastery, an impeccable selection of bass mentalism, groovy perreo and tribalism ✨ It's dance, it's jungle, it's drops of spiritual crystals: it's Ben UFO.
