Sawf - Live at Athens Conservatoire for Chaos Festival [HOMVA031]

Last episode for CALL NOW! S04 ✨✨ 

This show has been focusing on the various musical backgrounds and roots of its guests, so for this last one we are super exited to have friend and DJ @nikhtas

Having started from the early 90s, he has been a constant presence in and around dancefloors, both DIY and not, as a DJ and dancer. For this episode, he brings his unique flavor of solid, bouncing, always dirty techno, aiming directly for the body 🌪

Call Now! vol.36 w/ Nikitas Grs and Ayshel

LDS (an acronym for Luca Daniel Schwarz) is based out of Stuttgart, and fast blazing a trail beyond his native Germany. 2018 saw his Dub Tapes From Outer Space EP out on Transatlantic Records, dubby techno stirrings crossbred with a hint of the psychedelic, dub both reduxed and reinterpreted, and people started to pay attention. From his studio, he pushed this work in all directions, a process of investigation, critical thinking, creation of sounds and modulation, a spark plug method of getting his software instruments into the kind of feedback loop he needs to produce the best results. Conceptually, though there’s a mirroring of past influence, it’s music for a newer and thoroughly networked era: the ‘educational internet' is, he says, the place he spends a lot of time both learning and developing his music. That signature sound has dovetailed with the work of labels like Monnom Black, Blue Hour and Planet X, where his productions have also taken on genres like trance and IDM. The benchmark for all his releases, sets, and (starting in 2023) live performances is a high-speed fluttering salvo of rhythms that penetrate and resist any type of conceptual reverse manufacture, but to Luca it matters little: ‘the impression and thoughts of the listener are the only concepts that are true’. It’s what people feel then, that puts him on the map. It’s dub techno but not as you know it, atmospheric pads deputise their role to hardheaded beats and the end product is no less hypnotic. For Bassiani Podcast 234 LDS riffs on relatively simple construction, daisy-chaining tracks faster than you can identify what trace of emotion they’ve left behind, and building a mood that’s rife with ideas and ready to dance. This is switched on techno for the internet generation, immersive beats in conversation with their author, a reworking of the old and the birth of something entirely new.

Sawf - Livelos Mix

There’s beauty in chaos and method to madness, that much is true to the work of this faceless duo from Sweden. SHXCXCHCXSH’s strain of anarchic noise has sparked conversations and head-spinning records ever since the two producers first swapped notes in 2009. For about a decade, Hannes Stenström and Emmanuel Pascal Moreno stayed out of the public eye as a matter of principle, stripping music to its very base, without the weight of prejudice and social context holding it back: ’we prefer to listen to music in the dark, preferably without knowing who made it, when or how’. From the chaos and their loyalty to instinct came the need to find new structures, and so their faceless records united around a theme or musical element. It was a gamble, but their sledgehammer destruction of techno conventions gave some of the most intriguing sounds of the 2010s. Sampling everything from podcasts to YouTube to field recordings, they’re always on the hunt for ‘in-between’, ‘unintentional’ details, a way to composite the strangest and most innovative techno out there. Their staggering releases on Avian pioneered new sounds (and track names), and successfully manufactured the type of music you could hear both at home and in clubs; and 2024 saw them resurrect their Rösten imprint with the release of DO, an infernal four-tracker made for the dancefloor. Bassiani Podcast 257 explores that format further, bringing their stabbing and psychedelic havoc to a crowd facing setting. Immersive and heavy-duty, this one’s an hour-long clip of their snake-pit percussions, mind-bending techno from the enigmatic Norrköping duo.

Thirty second curse casted by Ex.Hale, owner of Cruel Machine Booking

Poem:

"Wisdom burned upon a shelf, who'll kill the raging cancer
Seal the river at its mouth, take the water prisoner
Fill the sky with screams and cries, bathe in fiery answers”


Curse 32 - Ex.Hale

Firmly centred at the heart of Bristol’s growing techno scene, Field Case is the coming together of DJs Petrachore and Ohana. 

Exploring a range of colourful and percussive textures, the duo experiment with rhythm and deep sounds to create dynamic atmospheres that encourage exploration and freedom of expression.

As both residents of Raise The NRG and Queerky, the duo have continued to demonstrate their prowess in dance floor manipulation. 
Their performances have become synonymous with melding broken techno and glitchy bass, circulating the trajectory of the dance floor.

The two met by chance in early 2023, to later then form Bristol’s first-ever queer community radio station, Transgression.fm. 
From differing musical backgrounds and contrasting sonic palettes, their journey together has defined their sound, character and mystery.

Enjoy this hour and thirty minutes pure journey.

ED PODCAST NO.20 - FIELD CASE

Ready Made Distribution is happy to present you a monthly selection of some of the finest material available in our store.

Sirio Grimaldi is the founder of Monolith Records and resident of the eclectic project Liber Null Berlin; born in Rome in the late 80s, he discovered the world of deejaying firstly inspired by the "Sound Of Rome". After digging the London scene he moved to Berlin, playing in the main clubs like Berghain Säule, Tresor, Arena, Griessmühle, About Blank, Suicide Circus (and more...). There it was established Monolith Records, a music platform which looks ahead to the grim future of humankind, delivering electronics as compositions translating different philosophical stances, mainly about the human condition. The parallel development of darker aesthetics through the Liber Null Berlin residency, proliferating over Berlin first, then Europe and Asia, shapes the unique mystical Idm obscure-ravey output of the deejay sets, that can morph from slow-haunting and experimental warmups to destructive dancefloor actions through a wide range of genres, constantly mashed up (such as Techno, Industrial, Idm, Ambient, Breaks, Acid, Electro; following no rules in matter of bpm). Also art director of the event series Metamorphosis happening in Suicide Circus every couple of months, he's genuinely contributing to the scene with constant dedication and focus on quality.
