Mixes

Today, we welcome our thirteenth guest mix selection on @subcityradio - this time from Tokyo-based DJ, unrivalled bizzaro-music collector, hair-stylist and reissue label maverick, Tatsuhiko Sakamoto.

Tatsu is the owner of a very cool hair salon in Yoyogi-Hachiman, Tokyo called TANGRAM, founder of Tokyo’s Ideala crew, who organise regular ‘deep listening parties’ at Forestlimit in Hatagaya, and label co-head behind Conatala, one of the best new reissue labels, whose latest archival record, Fishy Tails, compiles tracks from The Dead Goldfish Ensemble.

This guest mix melts sources and samples into an unfathomable pile of rainbow candle wax. Extended thickets of electronic whispers devolve into creamy xylophone-like refrains - massaging synth updrafts free fall into dark ambient communal baths that offer entire universes to idly float through at varying lengths. The first hour is all pealing ripples and imitation bells, cascading hiss and meditative drift, plus a great deal of unstated, baleful fun bridging sounds and subcultures.

The marvellously psychedelic churn changes tempos in the second hour - hypnotic krautrock-inspired repetition, snaking and surging on a dime Jazz-chord skree, proggy synth-pomp and far East tonalities, ultimately hydroplaning into a thicket of bracing, exclamatory effects; think of it as primal lamentation therapy for the lockdown soul.

Originally aired LIVE on Glasgow's Subcity Radio on 14/03/21 - Tracklist available here - https://www.subcity.org/shows/choon/e49e9

Dubpulse - Mains Courantes invite Choon (Octobre 2021)

ch00n!! (23/10/21)

New guest mix radio for @noodsradio
Invited by the great @choon_subcity, following text by him, thanks you once again.
"We are inviting Parisian micro-record label, purveyor of ultra-limited dubplates, proprietor of the amazing Dubpulse show on @egrego.re and good friend mains_courantes, to take the reins.

Expect a dystopian sound collage where primitive dub damage meets euphoric post-Kosmische hypnotic beauty. Fully embracing both analogue and digital sources and samples, worlds meld together through plunderphonics and musique concrète. Primal rhythms cut through with beams of massively potent cyber/synth destruction, brain-bombing automated steel-tone pulses and a heavy smear of sub-tropical ambience. A love letter to maximal minimalism.

Guestmix for chOOn!! (04/03/22) (Noods Radio)

This month exploring some of my favourite records in the so-called American Primitive genre as well as more contemporary music that was informed by it. The show features works by guitar soli pioneers John Fahey and Robbie Basho, as well as their cohort – Leo Kottke, Bola Sete, Don Bikoff, soundtrack composer Bruce Langhorne, William Eaton and Daniel Hecht. Most of the musicians above had associations and releases on sound-defining, legendary Takoma Records.
A later generation of artists that took this aesthetic in a more ‘electrified’ and occasionally minimalist (or jazz/blues-infused) direction is represented by John Lurie, Neil Young, Loren Connors and Dylan Carlson from the drone rock band Earth.

Everything speaks. Everything is language, consciousness, shapes, conveyance, encoded reason. We are conductors of perception and play in reality, physical orchestrators of communications channeling, bridging worlds which meet through our cognizance. Improviser = composer = improviser = composer… Our practice is exploration, duration, hold, threshold, space, choice, interaction, non interaction, dynamics, energy, body. Amounts of things. Touch. There is no turning back from the experiences and exposures which evolve the love and flow and articulation of our being and awareness. We continually curate the galleries of our mind, this dream we each are in the universe. A seance of world premiere meetings. Such is meditation too. It is beyond words, and yet we know it. How far can we go? We honor life, this opportunity of existence and healing we’re given. We use it and sing it through. Our life is cosmic synchronicity made manifest.

This show is a love letter for a friend far away, but also a love letter for my Sundays. It is for the sad ones, the lazy ones, the inspired ones and the lovely frustrated ones. I will be broadcasting from the piano behind the curtain on the empty theatre stage in the basement of the local cinema inside my mind.

Peoples of the earth, you have all been poisoned. […] I order total resistance directed against this conspiracy to pay off peoples of the earth in ersatz bullshit. I order total resistance directed against The Nova Conspiracy and all those engaged in it."
    The purpose of my writing is to expose and arrest Nova Criminals. […] Minutes to go. Souls rotten from their orgasm drugs, flesh shuddering from their nova ovens, prisoners of the earth to come out.
