Electronic Beats

Blitz x Electronic Beats — CCL [12.09.20]

A multimedia artist, DJ and producer, 'nohup' isn't short of projects or aliases. Moving under numerous musical disguises (‘sighup’, DJ Kaaba Emoji, Mystery Contusion), they also head up a neat selection of side hustles inclusive of an apparel brand and a techy Twitter bot. 

Earlier this year, they launched the label Illegal Afters Tracks. The project had a flying start, raising over $1100 from their first record; split between Real Rent Duwamish and Loveland Therapy Fund. 

On their Hyp mix debut, 'nohup' meditates on the meaning of freedom. Without giving too much away, this mix is a representation of how freedom can develop true artistry with wide-ranging and thought-provoking outcomes. Tune in, it's 'nohup' on the Hyp Mix.

Disclaimer: The above text has been edited. The original write-up consistently used incorrect gender pronouns. 'nohup' uses they/them pronouns.

Hyp 432: 'nohup'

Skilfully weaving a dynamic selection of tracks within this week's mix, we're delighted to welcome Gramrcy...

With fun at its heart, Gramrcy has established his style with an anything-goes approach to dance music that creates unforgettable, bold moments with DJ performances and mixes gathering acclaim from the likes of Thump, Crack Magazine, Boiler Room and more. 

Alongside Shanti Celeste, he is co-owner of the well-loved Peach Discs label and an established producer in his own right with releases on FTD, GlassTalk and Midnight Shift to name a few - and we're looking forward to hearing more!

Introduce yourself? Preferred pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself?

My name is Taylor and my preferred pronouns are they and she. I live in Brooklyn! Fun fact about myself… I used to teach hip hop dance in the early 2000’s. 

How is everything going with you right now?

It’s going pretty well despite the circumstances, which of course are not ideal. Been navigating a lot of personal challenges lately, from a break-up to family drama, but strangely I feel ok, like all is looking up….something in my attitude has shifted

What are you missing from pre-covid life?

Dancing. With people. More than anything.

Any fun goals for winter time?

3rd installment of Dance Floor Epiphanies for Resident Advisor is happening, and I also have an ambient release coming out for the boutique cassette label, Enmossed. And I want to finish my memoir! (maybe it will actually happen this time). 

Who currently inspires you music-wise?
ASC (always). Europa. Ma Sha Ru. May Vary. Abby Echiverri. E.C.C.O. Pugilist. Air Max ‘97. Eris Drew and Octo Octa. Datach’i. H.E.R. Noumen. And I’ve been kind of obsessed with heavy bass music lately like Ternion Sound and TMSV. those lower chakra vibes


4 djs you would want to see on a lineup for the first party post covid asap?

Oh god this is hard. Umm… I’m thinking about the DJs whose sets just tether me to the floor and make me really fucking jump-up-and-down happy:

Erika
Danny Daze
Ben UFO
Eris Drew

What other activities have you dipped into with a break from djing?

Writing and Spiritual Channeling / Energy Work. Deepening into both of those practices..

Favorite weird drug experience?

The very first time I took acid I accidentally took too much and merged with the soul of another human until we no longer could distinguish ourselves from one another. I saw his third eye blinking on his forehead, as real as an actual eye, and then we became telepathic, and then we astral projected as one entity into the godhead. It was cool.

Why do you think it's important to share music?

I believe it’s the most unifying force in the world. It’s the most human language, and gives us access to our emotions in a way that brings joy. And it connects us beyond the mind… it connects us through the body, and through the heart. 

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

Cohesion & Unification. A return to how things used to be, without trying to emulate the past too much. Meaning, a sense of PLUR that permeates not only the dance floor but the social spaces, online and physical.

Perko invite Wonja & Conrad Pack - 11 Novembre 2020

Can't believe Animix is already at it's twentieth mix! I am delighted that no.20 comes from @kikimolina, all the way from Santiago, Chile. Kiki has been a drummer/percussionist their whole life, and works as an anthropologist, recently focusing on pre-Columbian American music and instruments. With mixes, Kiki aims to create a ritual and lasting space, long, languid ideas, and an essence of calm... 

Gracefully done, this mix is just that. An other-wordly float through electronica, ambient & beyond.

Thank you so much for your contribution to the series Kiki <3

Kinda w/ C3D-E (December 2020)

Seattle-based @sharlese's sets combine the contemporary and the nostalgic in a way that feels timeless. A busy contributor to her local music community, she's a resident and Producer of the Afternoon Show and Programming Education Manager at Seattle's KEXP radio station, and currently serves as Vice-Chair on the Seattle Music Commission, as well as organizing events under the banner of coldwave, industrial, EBM, and synth crew False Prophet and underground techno collective Depth. Sharlese's dark, gritty, ravey sets are perfectly suited to the dancefloor, while still feeling informed by the deep digging collector mentality that comes with a long background in radio.

Read the full interview and see a tracklist:
spontaneous.zone/033-sharlese.html

"I think my entire career was founded on community and it definitely intersects with my individual expression. Without my community there would be no Sharlese. I thrive on the creativity of my friends. I love seeing what they’re doing, watching them, supporting them and I feel honored when they do the same for me.

Seattle is full of talent, bursting at the seams and when I see everyone expressing themselves, it causes me to do what I want to do! I’m pretty lucky to have a radio show where I can play my friends and people I admire on a platform that will hopefully bring more awareness to their work. It’s all connected, without one, there can’t be the other!"
