WORKSHOP 32 INFO
by Pjotr Jezernitski
Stripped back and bony funk. The residue and distant memories of a party.
Closing your eyes, still not dark. A lighting rig under your lids. A night lasting 20
years, falling asleep with your favourite song on repeat. The deconstructed,
untangled memory lingers in your system. What you hear are the remnants of a
social gathering and its body movements.
KMOS. The fog machines are gone, the free deconstructed thinking laid out bare.
Fourth album. The white noise funk still here, 4 to the floor and gnarly basslines.
The jazz but the tight, the funk but the taut. The austere but the flow. The
instruments, sinuous and intricate. The deconstructed dancefloor. Sawed up bits,
sawed up pieces. The drums the strings the claps the sharpness. Rearranged,
picked apart. organized for a new day. A new idea. A new blueprint. A brave
new clear elusive promise. The love in the strict. The strict but the mess. The strict
but the lie. A promise.
Drifting through a sleepless world. The rent, the eyes, the mirror the scrolling the
daylight, and the gravel in your eyes. Sounds of endless nights long lasting days,
reality and visions, blurred and frazzled. The eavesdropping the neighbour the
conversations the sleep. The fear and the joy and the new that I project onto you.
The loopy sound of sirens. The joy of the sun. The field, the horizon, the light, the
smoke. Xeroxed memories are now our new. The love the dream. The sleep the
wake. The wish the longing. The promise the fear. What once was promised
We will reclaim

KASSEM MOSSE NEEDS TO FEEL MIX

Live recording of Carlos Souffront at Pulsar Stage, UFOCAMP 18-19 May 2024.

Carlos Souffront at UFOCAMP 2024

@priori-ties mix begins and ends with a gentle embrace, prowling seductively with dub-driven grooves before retreating into the ether like dusk yielding to dawn. Consistently in motion, but never in haste. Don’t miss the lion’s roar. 

The jewelry released with this mix is inspired by Priori’s fascination with labyrinths. Priori feels like mazes and labyrinths were omnipresent in youth literature and movies but hey rarely encounter them in culture these days.

We are very happy to present @jasminhoek for the next Nous’klaer Radio! The label favourite, both in DJ sets and productions, gave us the perfect start of the week with her new recording. Get to know her better through the small Q&A here below. Big thanks to Jasmín!

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴/𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴?
I started practicing DJing at the end of 2015, and had my first real gig in early 2017. I got Ableton in 2019, but didn’t get to spend a lot of time with it until the pandemic. So, it’s been 10 years (!) since I started DJing this year, and 5 years since I started producing.

𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲/𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼?
I think there were several tracks, but two tracks that stand out for techno specifically are Rrose’s Waterfall and Blawan’s Vibe Decorium. I remember being blown away when I first heard them on YouTube. They're still among my favorite producers, and I play those tracks quite regularly.

𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆?
As soon as the first rays of sun hit, I get sucked into late 1960s and early 1970s music.
Ann Peebles – I’m Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down (this whole album is such a masterpiece)
Jefferson Airplane – White Rabbit
Jimi Hendrix – Foxey Lady

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗯𝘀𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲?
I’m a huge nerd when it comes to fashion and fashion history. I actually wanted to work in fashion as a kid/teen before I got sucked into music. I must say, for creativity, fashion is still my biggest source of inspiration. I really admire the crafts of sewing, designing, and working with fabric. Of course, like in any creative industry, there are plenty of things to be critical about as well, but the creativity and world-building behind certain fashion shows or editorials is magic to me.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗝𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘀?
Specifically for DJing, I’d say go to clubs early, see how a club night evolves, and learn what makes a good flow for the night/event. Listen to a lot of opening sets to learn how to build up a set. It takes time to learn what it’s like to play on a club sound system, so opening sets are great for easing into it. If you can do a good opening set, you can definitely slam it out later during the night. That said, this might be a hot take, but I think DJing should start as your hobby, and could then eventually turn into your job. If mixing, digging, collecting, or deep diving into music isn’t something you’d do if you weren’t paid for it, it’ll be hard to stick with it. Try not to monetize your hobbies right from the start.

Nous'klaer Radio #39 - Jasmín

Ahead of the work we are doing with Detroit veteran Craig Gonzalez this year, here is a mix he’s done exploring new rhythms and soundscapes. We thought it would be prudent to share a mix of one of his many fresh perspectives, where he explores something we at IT find very compelling — new juxtapositions of polyrhythms and drum and bass within a deeply hypnotic techno context. 

"I’ve really been enjoying exploring the sonic space between techno and drum and bass. What excites me about this fusion is how it challenges both myself and fans of these genres, as it often defies the expectations of each. The introduction of polyrhythms takes it even further, pushing the boundaries and making the music feel truly genre-agnostic. In this space, the emphasis shifts away from traditional structures, focusing more on rhythm and context than on genre conventions.

This mix is a studio recording rather than a live set from an IT event because I feel that this style of music requires a more intentional approach to the context of an event. It hasn’t quite aligned with the atmosphere of my time slots—at least, not for now." — Craig Gonzalez @craig-gonzalez

Fresh from Stochastic Drift, Barker’s buzzing second album named Bleep Record of the Month alongside an exclusive 12”, Barker sends a mix that really digs deep into the unique sonic methodology he has constructed across his solo career width a suitable breadth for what is also a milestone in the series, Bleep Mix #300.

From Debiasing to Utility to Stochastic Drift, Barker has been reimagining club music without its definitive thump, instead driven by melody and tactile synthesis, and this selection of tracks expands Barker’s soundworld with a host of artists walking a similar path. “For this mix, I picked out some of my favourite uptempo ambient tracks, recorded at home with two decks and a mixer. It’s music I've used in a lot of different contexts, as a DJ and listener, and I hope you enjoy it.”

Though the occasional dancefloor thump makes itself known, such as on Adriana Lopez’ ‘What Lies Behind’, it’s mostly in quaking subs rather than actual four to the floor, providing some ground for this mix’s airy freeform variety to fly over. We have the wooden plunks and seaspray of Afefe Iku’s Kenyan island sound, the wonky gamelan of Tyler Friedman’s maze of bells and chimes, the dense atmosphere of shaker-produced rain and electrical chirps forged deep in the ruins of The Future Sound Of London.

The midsection of this mix contains some magic in particular: the maestro of drumless trance Lorenzo Senni creates motion from pure jagged synth energy on ‘The Power of Failing’, dissolving into the aether of an unreleased Barker track, which further discharges into the kaleidoscopic stutters of Caribou’s ‘Never Come Back’ with jubilant piano chords and vocal clips wrought into a glitchy, swirling maelstrom of Koreless' prickly warmth. Digital Justice’s ‘Theme From It’s All Gone Pearshaped’ follows, a timeless staple for anyone wishing to dabble in melodic motion and synthsmithery, or any DJ set seeking to add some lift without losing momentum, of which this mix is in no short supply.

Bleep Mix #300 - Barker

A clinic in minimal from the elusive Acting Press boss. 

Why do certain sounds cultivate a cult following? Simply put, it's often because they resist easy consumption. PLO Man and his imprint Acting Press lean into this. 

Searching for the Berlin-based DJ and producer, you won’t find much online presence, interviews or conventional PR. What you will find, if you look hard enough, is a catalogue of records and mixes with a kind of tape hiss charm (a spiritual successor to Basic Channel and Chain Reaction, but scuzzier and lighter on its feet).

Founded in 2015, Acting Press once seemed to belong to the short-lived "outsider house" trend, but is now synonymous with a certain strain of modern minimal, one that is analogue, spacious and pointedly opaque. PLO Man's output is equally sparse by design: this week, he joins the RA Podcast with a characteristically elusive style, accompanying the near two-hour mix is a one-answer Q&A that gives almost nothing away.

Stripped-back, ever-so-slightly sleazy and coated in dust, PLO Man's RA Podcast continues that lineage in style. Opening with the featherlight microhouse of Margaret Dygas, RA.988 unfolds into a carefully curated spectrum of minimal, dub and deep techno. Among familiar names—look out for the blinding Rhythm & Sound and Moodymann blend—are deep cuts and left turns alongside the odd outlier, like lovers' rock pioneer Gregory Isaacs.

Like the best of his forebears, PLO Man wants RA.988 to take time for you to settle in. But once you do, you won’t want to leave.
