"Always notice whatever is happening in the background." The acclaimed producer and composer discusses the art of meaningful listening and his latest LP, Silencio.

Moritz von Oswald's legacy as one of the trailblazers of contemporary techno precedes him. The artist's initial claim to fame was his involvement in the duo Basic Channel with Mark Ernestus, a project that formed the dub techno canon in the '90s and is still a primary reference point for many, if not most, modern producers. He was also at the helm of the famous cutting and pressing plant Dubplates and Mastering in Berlin, which has become a home for countless artists over the years.

But on this occasion, Oswald sat down to discuss a more recent project: his LP Silencio on Tresor Records, which came out in November. He talked with RA's senior producer, Chloe Lula, about his lifelong love of  jazz, tapestry, French film, Southern Italian opera and music from Central Asia. He also reflects on his production process—an endless exploration of drama and dynamics. Oswald is fascinated with reducing sound to its most basic elements and broadening the capacity of what the ear can perceive. Most importantly, he's a critical listener, and in the final moments of the episode, he imparts wisdom on how he's learned to keep a conscious ear open to the world around him. Check out the episode in full.

EX.690 Moritz Von Oswald

Pack it all I’ll pick you up
in my car no liquid luck 
this time I’m by the wheels don’t give a fuc 
I’ll go all night if that is what it takes 

You’re on the run
A deer in the headlights
So weak and strong
Let me join your flight

Saw you on the pavement on the floor
Saw you on the pavement wanted more 
Saw you on the pavement on the floor
Saw you on the pavement

By the way I don’t know why
I sense some sort of affinity 
In how to hide
So don’t be shy
I got you girl 
Just put your trust in me

You’re on the run
A deer in the headlights
So weak and strong
Let me join your flight

Saw you on the pavement on the floor
Saw you on the pavement wanted more 
Saw you on the pavement on the floor
Saw you on the pavement

Saw you on the pavement 
Went up to you right there and then
Wanna come with me hop into the backseat?
We can go driving hang out by the roadside
Not touch the brakes until we see daylight 

Saw you on the pavement 
Went up to you right there and then
Wanna come with me hop into the backseat?
We can go driving pretend we don’t see the stop signs 
And speed past the red lights

Saw you on the pavement on the floor
Saw you on the pavement wanted more 
Saw you on the pavement on the floor
Saw you on the pavement

I saw you I saw you I saw you I saw you

Deer On The Pavement

funky_aspect part1

been some time for me
and for you i see it
how we move so slow
both afraid to show it

unwrap/unlock and unfold
panning the fools gold

i don't know what i like about you
but i do
maybe we can figure it out
kinda soon
i don't know about you
i don't know

you make me feel safe
your body made of fire
burns me in my bed
still i just come closer

unwrap/unlock and unfold
panning the fools gold

i don't know what i like about you
but i do
maybe we can figure it out
kinda soon
i don't know about you
i don't know

sometimes i think i found my love
sometimes i think it's a flower

i don't know what i like about you
but i do
maybe we can figure it out
kinda soon
i don't know about you
i don't know

Me and Ben thought it would be fun to play a long DJ set together at Globus, the upstairs floor at Tresor in Berlin. 
We last played together (as Frequency 7) in May 2013. This time we played a ‘back to back’ DJ set, I’m pretty sure playing 2 tracks each for the whole six and a half hour set. All we had in mind beforehand was to start with some Dub and ‘see where it goes’. 

It was a lot of fun so we wanted to share the recording with you.
