Like every other English teenager living within 150 miles of London or Manchester, Chris Duckenfield was significantly affected by the late ’80s acid-house craze. After bopping about at Sheffield’s Jive Turkey parties, Duckenfield bought himself a pair of Technics and began to put together a set. Sheffield’s vibrant illegal party scene at the end of the eighties introduced Chris to a different style of music and DJing altogether; he was hooked.

With a swathe of productions and a label under his belt and a great pedigree as a DJ to match his production skills, we are delighted to have him back in the booth at Subculture, and, as a true brother in arms it’s also very fitting for him to be here again as we celebrate 20 Years of Subculture.

In true gentleman style, as a treat for Harri & Domenic, ahead of his return to the Subbie, he recorded this exclusive 20 years of Subculture mix for your listening pleasure.

If that's not enough he also pulled together a History Of Acid House mix in Manchester a few years back, it's proved very popular and if it's more good music you are looking for this fits the bill pretty accurately:

Enjoy.

Tickets to catch Chris alongside Harri & Domenic at Subculture this Saturday the 26th of April, can be purchased from RA & in store and online at Tickets Scotland.

Jacques Renault's interview with Soundwall (IT/EN): http://bit.ly/1PhSHhi

"I’m sure any Italo enthusiast will know all of these tunes, so the point wasn’t to wow you with how desirable the tracks are but rather give you a snapshot of what Italo I did find in the early 2000s that still means something to me today." - Jacques Renault

After receiving support from Roman Flugel, Tim Sweeney, John Talabot, Ame, Mano Le Tough and many other DJs and producers from the electronic scene, inviting LOR (Lunar Orbit Rendezvous) to contribute to the Slowciety podcast series seemed like the obvious thing to do.

His first release, Versions 1 on NVH (the sublabel of Hivern Discs) is such an absolute banger that we thought it was too late to ask him for a podcast. Guess what ? We arrived just before he started to drown in work – he’s producing an EP, soon to be released on CinCin, Fort Romeau and Ali Tillett’s new label. 

Today, he delivers what we like to call, here at Slowciety, a « no-mistake » podcast. From Flugel’s “Candy Crack” to the heavenly “Moon”, by the man himself, without forgetting, of course, the powerful dancefloor injection “Sky On The Floor” by Simian Mobile Disco.
LOR gives us one of the best of the series, so far. We’re so grateful to have him on board. 

Here is A2,

Enjoy & keep it slow

Things we know about US-born Maurice Fulton. He used to make brilliantly weird house and disco as the Noize Boyz and still does under his own name. He produced weirdly brilliant acid house as Scyclops. He produced weirdly brilliant screamo post-disco with his equally brilliantly weird wife Mu and he now makes sometimes weird, always brilliant music on BubbleTease Communications. He’s also playing at the Queen of Hoxton, London, on NYE, and has done our last, need we add brilliant, podcast of the year packed full of quality disco.

EX.382 The Hour: Kerri Chandler in NYC, how DJs organise music

Six years ago, Russian-born Marina Rubinstein was a raver living in Tel Aviv with dreams of becoming a DJ. After saving up enough money, she bought a one-way ticket to Berlin, where she quickly worked her way up from playing small rooms to 20 people to playing the world's biggest techno club, Berghain.

Dr. Rubinstein's story is a familiar one, but her love of '90s acid techno and life-affirming rave tunes helped the fledgling DJ to stand out in a city then dominated by darker, more hypnotic sounds. Today, she's a globally respected selector with a joyous, life-affirming style.

This week's FACT mix is a snapshot of Dr. Rubinstein's dreamier side, packed with hazy breakbeat, electro and acid; it rarely climbs above 115BPM, with tracks from Lake Haze, Holger Flinsch and Legowelt amongst the tracks that will have spotters taking notes. It's one for the 7am crew.

For the final recorded set from Campout 2019, we wanted to share a special moment from the weekend. @midland played a stunning three hour set at Hemlock Hole that helped set the tone for the weekend. 

Reflecting back on this time together feels almost like a dream. The threat of COVID-19 and the quarantine we’ve been forced to endure has forced us to hit pause on our lives and rethink our immediate futures. As much as we’d love to dance with you this summer, we tearfully must postpone Honcho Campout to August 19-22, 2021 due to COVID-19.  

For more information on our decision and future updates please visit: honchocampout.com/updates

Campout Series: Midland

This is the set I played at Dekmantel Selectors festival in 2019. I closed out the evening, following sets by Mad Miran, Khidja and OKO DJ.

I'm really missing the dancefloor right now, so it was fun for me to relive a memory this joyful. I hope you guys enjoy it too.

Dekmantel Selectors 2019 (Closing set)

This set was recorded at the start of this year at Nowadays in NYC. I closed out the party after Aurora Halal, from 2am - 7am. 
It was such a wonderful night, and with clubs around the world still closed I thought the set would work well as something to listen to this NYE, however you might be spending it.

Happy new year - hoping to see you again in 2021 💫

This set was originally broadcast on Nowadays' Patreon channel - https://www.patreon.com/nowadaysnyc/posts - please consider supporting them if you can.

Live at Nowadays - 18.01.20

An off-the-wall session from the Swedish-South African supergroup.
