0.9999...//READ THAT SEQUENCE LIKE A MANTRA.

After their successful collaboration on <3, Atom™ and X1N are back, this time presenting the 4 track EP »0.9«. It contains both the opening and closing tracks of <3 as well as their corresponding mutations. While »0.9 (almost a unit)« was remixed by Esplendor Geométrico, »Almost a unit (0.9)« got reworked by Peter van Hoesen. »Both renditions contribute amplified iterations of inherent attributes of <3« as X1N eloquently states. On a side note it may be mentioned that in mathematics, the expression »0.999..« is considered being identical to 1. Meditating over that very fact may tell you a lot about our current reality.

In this brand-new interview series, we invite artists we love to present their newest work in their own words. We felt that too often, album releases are reviewed by music journalists who interpret and give the record a rating based on their personal viewpoints (and sometimes biases). This is why we wanted to give the floor directly to the artists. The host is simply there to help carry the conversation.

We go behind the scenes and dig into the inspirations, context, and emotions that went into making the record.

There’s no better way to start this series than with our talented friend Rafa Aslan's newest album, titled Again and Again.

Brian Leeds has spent a decade exploring electronic music’s murky corners under a range of aliases – from blown-out house and ambient to deep-fried trap and drill. As Loidis, he released one of 2024’s best albums, the minimalist dub techno LP ‘One Day’. 

Now, returning to his primary @huerco_s handle, the Philadelphia-based shapeshifter records a two-hour mix of rhythmic psychedelia for DJ Mag's Recognise series, and speaks to Michael McKinney about his family ties to the Jersey Devil, growing up in bands, his West Mineral Ltd. label, and learning to slow down.

Hard to believe I started this series 12 years ago. Time moves so fast, doesn’t it?

At first, it was a project meant to celebrate the indescribable feeling of making it through another lonnnng Montreal winter. Then, it became a form of catharsis for me to grieve the memory of my mom, who passed away a few years ago now. I’ve thought a few times that this project might have run its course, but as I got a lot of very kind feedback from listeners, I think it has come to mean something for them too. Hopefully, it does to you too.

So here we are with another selection of songs to heal, uplift, cry, love and laugh.

Dedicated to all our loved ones. Dedicated to my mom.
Peace with every step.

For RA.1000, DJ Sprinkles' first mix in over a decade is a powerful meditation on the genocide in Gaza.

Dance music often relies on simple narratives: release, escape, unity. But those narratives can often feel inadequate, and even at times, hollow. Or, as Terre Thaemlitz might bluntly put it, just "shitty."

For her first mix in around 15 years, Terre Thaemlitz AKA DJ Sprinkles, challenges us to think differently. "I felt this 1000th podcast should reflect the moment in which it was made," she told us in her Q&A.

And what is this moment? Every day since Israel's 2023 assault on Gaza began, an average of 28 children have been killed. That's an entire classroom, every day, for over 600 days (at the time of writing). It's a staggering figure that only captures a fragment of the listless cruelty imposed on the strip.

Faced with such a genocide, what can music really do? How political can it truly be?  For their RA.1000, Thaemlitz gives us an unflinching rebuke to the idea that music should provide escapism. The mix weaves ambient fragments and jazz passages, woven around samples from Israeli media and the voices of outspoken Jewish critics like Gabor Maté and Norman Finkelstein. 

The result is not just a protest, but a document of our time. For Terre Thaemlitz, music is never just music. Her RA.1000 serves as a reminder that in an age of relentless suffering, the most political act is to reject the illusion of escape, and search for something greater.
