Martyn is the finest example of an artist who exists outside traditional genre boundaries. Ever since the mid-90s, the Dutchman has operated in his own adjacent worlds while drawing on UK bass hybrids, techno and electro to cook up singular rhythms and unique moods. The 3024 label head has always used his platform to bring through new talent, and now also mentors young artists with his own Patreon program. This sits next to his ever spell-binding performances in the club and eye-opening monthly Darkest Light show on NTS, which is a deep dive into his love of jazz. 

This week's mix is a 70-plus minute snapshot of Martyn's sound, which is as timeless as ever. From the crispness of Detroit electro to the off-beat thump of bass via his deep techno lit up with glistening electronics, it is a perfect blend of body and head and one full of brazen moves. There's a switch to jazz-laced broken beat and low, then the slow wobble of dubstep before a rebuild towards old school jungle that proves this is the sound of a true master at work.

Name:  Simone
Alias: Smokey / Smoke Dog (@smokey_cph)
Pronouns: She/her
Location: Copenhagen, Denmark

Influences: Musically I’d have to say the UK, but I’m not too excited about borders(!) boxes, categories or purist ideas when it comes to music. There are a ton of people that I am inspired by both personally and musically; my girls and my crew: Mama Snake and Solid Blake, and ofc all the bass babes MSJY, re:ni, Darwin, Yeahlena, CCL, Mia Koden, DJ Voices, Mad Miran, Ciel, Niks, Bitter Babe, Azu Tiwaline, mi-el, Roza Terenzi. And my local Copenhagen icons; N.E.GIRL, Gavnlig, Daniel Savi, Lille Høg, Heste Jente, Lyra Valenza, Clara Lucifer, Mbizo, Deb Foam, Cecilie Nørgaard, Nina Marie Lange, 2000F, Purple Rave Club, Cirkeline, Téa, Fruit DJ + Drift Radio and the crew and many more! 

Affiliations/Residencies/Projects: Earlier this year I started in the position as Head of Music at Strøm Festival, which is one of Copenhagen’s finest institutions for electronic music. It’s such a privilege to be doing this, it’s wild! Before that I spent one and a half years mentoring and tutoring at Future Female Sounds DJ academy. It’s an organization that works towards inclusion for femmes, trans and non-binary people in the field of DJ’ing. So many good femme and queer DJ’s in Copenhagen, oopft. 

Favorite Quote: The more I see, the less I know for sure. (I think it was John Lennon who said it? So true though?!) 

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:. Acknowledge your privilege, share your knowledge, open doors for those who need it. Reach out and don’t be afraid to ask for help or advice. Be kind and be brave (is this perhaps a Cinderella quote??) 
Be in it for the music, the art and the creativity of it. Keep digging and exploring. Anyone can learn how to use cdjs, but the real deal is digging. Digging and keeping your mind open to new influences, new people and new genres.

With this mix Smokey asks for you to please learn more about and consider donating to:
There are two really nice initiatives here in Copenhagen that I think could inspire other parts of the world in terms of creating safer conditions for vulnerable people in the streets.
❁ Fixelancen: a van for drug users to safely do their drugs accompanied by professional staff and nurses. This way right about zero people die from overdoses and also it helps protect women and femmes in particular. (https://trv.dk/support.html)
❁ The Red Van which is also a mobile harm reduction organization, it works the same way, but for street-based sex workers. (http://fixerum.dk/)

Juanita's Mix 089 with Doctor Jeep @drjeep

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. My name is Andre and I make music, DJ, and make visual art as Doctor Jeep. I tend to be pretty diverse in my musical interests and like to keep people guessing what they might expect from a set or release.

Q. How long have you been a part of the NY music scene?
A. I moved back here after graduating college in 2013 and for the first few years was lucky enough to release music on the iconic label Trouble & Bass and play their parties. Felt really nice to be part of a community that was pushing bass-forward music, and when they stopped doing the label I found myself pretty isolated, not having a “home base”. Nowadays, I go out very frequently and developed a nice little community just by hanging with other producers and DJs and learning from my pals. I think the NYC scene is super strong and am really inspired by lots of people that I go out and see. In fact it’s almost too good: I find myself struggling to choose between which parties to go to on any given weekend because there’s too many options and I’m getting to the point where I can’t hit more than 2 events per night - body’s getting old baby!

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. Went with a loose theme of “psychedelic music” - first half is spacey acid-leaning tunes and a teeny bit of dubstep, and the second half is darker atmospheric DnB-adjacent bits. The two halves are pretty different from each other but encompass what I’d consider to be music for those trippier nights. Always get a little nervous putting out mixes that have less consistency in terms of rhythm or vibe but I wanted to showcase a side of me that is different from my usual ‘fun hyperactive party music’ live sets. Hopefully people see the vision :)

The third entry in a series of living documents of momentum

Euphoric kinetic connection embraces disorder inside the void, as we smile & dance toward anamnesis together

Manifested live at home between the surface noise, my spirit, and the universal chorus in afternoon glow of August 2023

Originally aired on Bass Clef's Open Hand Real Flames NTS show August 2023, this is the full archive of the mix because I accidentally made it too long for NTS (oopsie)- much love to Bass Clef and NTS for having me on the show!

& as Bahamadia once said... "Shalom" :)

proper introduction
fluctuation and vocalization at warp speed
heat style with this style of producing
a little bit purist
you ought to receive screens and encores for high-class tour pleasure
in the form of freestyle in style put it on down
et cetera, measure the
contents that can then concoct some new catchy phrases
the outcome of a mind that’s ageless while yours is senseless

melodic. logic. types
limericks to raw forms to form form
new forms of movement into new on-on-on into millenium
live swing like pendulum
pure soul m-m-maximum
uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
you got me high-high-high-high-high
best height for the next epic

feeling so high

Truancy Volume 317: Djoser

For the past few years, RA cover star Jlin has been churning out complex percussion compositions that sit at the intersection of IDM, trap, mutant techno and sound art. Her tracks are tactile and structurally complex, stacked drums interlocking with glistening melodies and heaving basslines on groundbreaking albums like Dark Origami. Her rhythms gracefully crosscut over one another like towering blocks in an architecture sketch for a truly cerebral experience.

Growing up in Gary, Indiana, the former steel factory worker wears many hats. She produces mind-bending club music—usually for Mike Paradinas's label Planet Mu—scores modern dance performances and arranges for instrumental ensembles. Her process of collaboration is deeply symbiotic, as shown on her new EP, Perspective The acoustic version of the record, written for and performed with Chicago's Third Coast Percussion, was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize this year, an unprecedented honour for a dance music artist.

Jlin's style is sometimes described as avant-garde, but modernist is a better word. She originally started out making footwork and despite moving away from the genre in recent years, footwork's jittery energy still flows through her productions, a testament to her ability to experiment across styles. Being a math whiz only adds to the angular, carefully calculated feel of her production.
 
In celebration of Jlin's career, Mike Paradinas serves up a 40 minute mix that shows off her range and most importantly, her passion for this music.
