"This mix is intended to evoke the original spirit of the Artificial Intelligence series - electronic music intended for close listening, which can also cross over into a club music aesthetic. This is also my relationship with the AI compilations, I always saw them as a benchmark in electronic music which was "danceable" but also you could sit still and be immersed in it, listening loud on headphones. This has been my ethos for making music since the 1990s. Autechre ‘The Egg' is my fav on the 1st AI comp." - @nthnfk

Bleep Mix #252 - Nathan Fake - Artificial Intelligence Mix

Harold Heath speaks to one-half of the duo about the good times and the bad, alongside a two-hour mix of full-throttle acid techno, electro and more

"This Mix is an exploration of sounds born out of Durban’s electronic music scene between 2012 and 2016. It’s a Gqom mix but I also included new styles emergent from Durban townships: 'Core Tribe' and 'Sgubhu'" ~ Nan Kolè (@gqomu)

22 - Forgotten souls feat Formation Boyz - Hhaibo (remix) [Gqom Oh!]
23 - FORGOTTEN SOULs (FSs) - Blow My Mind [Gqom Oh!]

The main themes in the mix centre around wood percussions, thunderous synth pads and chopped Zulu vocals - creating a kind of dark atmospheric sound. It is anthem like, vivid, tribal, abstract in parts and yet specifically dramatic. 

The sound reminds me - in part - of techno in the late 90s where my dj'ing journey began at 'Teknival' and illegal rave party but also has elements of early dubstep which was deep and mystical.

Most of the tracks were new releases that came out of my recent trip to Durban as well as tracks recently sent to me via whatsapp.
 
The mix is a tribute to the artists of my label Gqom Oh!, their crews and friends. It also includes a handful of exclusive tracks from the next release "Gqom Oh! X crudo Volta Mixtape".

It is Rough, rugged and raw. It's riot music.

Jóhann is a figurehead in a dynamic and developing scene of composers who move freely and inventively between film scores, minimalist classical, ambient and electronic music. He is equally at home writing commissioned works for the Icelandic Symphony Orchestra, Bang on a Can and Theatre of Voices ensembles, as he is collaborating with Tim Hecker, Hildur Guðnadóttir, Pan Sonic, CAN drummer Jaki Liebezeit, Marc Almond, Barry Adamson, and Stephen O'Malley of Sunn O))).

Requests from filmmakers to use Jóhannsson’s music in their films has led to a flourishing career in writing original music for more than a dozen movies. Jóhannsson was awarded a Golden Globe in January 2015 for Best Film Score for The Theory Of Everything, directed by James Marsh, whilst his music for the film also earned him both Oscar and BAFTA nominations for Best Original Score.  Jóhannsson’s score for Denis Villeneuve’s Sicario was similarly honored with a BAFTA and an Oscar nomination in 2016.  

This year will see two major films featuring Jóhann’s original music: Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner, and James Marsh’s The Mercy starring Colin Firth and Rachel Weisz.

FACT Mix #300 - Objekt

This mix is a slight departure from my usual ‘tried-and-tested’ format. I wanted to play with a steady 140 BPM throughout, letting melodic elements and sound textures control the flow. It features a blend of recent vinyl releases and some of my digital-only favourites found on bandcamp, as well as a track from the new label I’m starting (Intrepid Skin) and a track my friend Nikolaj exported the very same day I recorded this (Sugar - Dark Side Of The Spoon).

Tailgating SPFDJ is no easy task. Her sharp ascent is born of a taste for dynamics that approach and bank with ecstatic momentum. Occasionally working at vicious speeds, acidic techno climes are funnelled through kaleidoscopic wares from the wealth of high-energy
outposts found across dance music today.

Though hailing from Sweden, SPFDJ’s beginnings were in London as part of the infamous collective Universe of Tang, an ongoing club operation steeped in DIY means and mystifying aesthetics. Then a relocation to Berlin prompted a new chapter of projects and activity, and the chance to import her affiliations. With sprintf, she runs the Cranial Handles transmission as well as the System.out sound system. Power Play is the latest party coerced into life by SPFDJ, sprintf, and others.

Catch SPFDJ at XOYO - BenUFO Residency this Friday 27th April.

EE500 - SPECIAL REQUEST

The Electronic Explorations podcast series has become a much loved and influential archive of dance music’s evolution over the last 11 years. Despite starting way before the medium exploded, and years ahead of the online radio explosion, it has remained utterly vital to this day. It is perfectly fitting, then, that the rather monumental 500th episode is taken care of by Paul Woolford, a producer who has been around just as long and is arguably more relevant than ever. He is a meticulous producer whose music is deeply layered, with finely crafted synths, devastating drums and perfect mix downs. From big piano house to vocal classics via twisted techno, he is impossible to pin-down and, frankly, a wilful contrarian.

The Special Request project started out as an ode to the youth of his pirate radio, to the sheer thrill of illicit raving and the raw power of the breakbeat. By now—two albums and countless EPs on Houndstooth and its own eponymous label later—it is about so much more: it is cinematic sound design, striking ambient, futuristic electro and IDM, soulful 2-step and whatever else Woolford fancies, all crafted to a dizzyingly high standard.

And, predictably, it’s the same story with this podcast, which is a storytelling one hour 45 minutes with a number of different chapters. Starting off as an ambient soundtrack with spoken word snippets and space travel motifs, it could be the recording of a cosmic exploration. 20 minutes later, you’re welcomed to the heart of smoky, strobe lit, euphoric dance floor and taken on a breathless trip through all the unadulterated, heart-on-sleeve and sweat-on-brow sounds that make Special Request such an utterly thrilling project.

“I started to work with Rob Booth on bringing the Special Request project to wider attention through signing to Houndstooth in 2013. Along with Rob Butterworth at the label, the three of us forged a clear connection based on mutual respect and a shared passion for spannered tracks of all persuasions.

“During the first conversation I had with Rob Booth in December 2012, I said to him how much I loved and respected the Electronic Explorations podcast series. The depth and detail in this vast archive of mixes is testament to Rob’s tireless and never-ending quest to look under every possible rock and boulder to see what emerges.

“His obvious delight and enthusiasm in the process is as engaging as it is a joy to behold. Once we had the Soul Music album completed, Rob started to ask me for a contribution to EE, to which I always said, “we’ll get around to it”. We released the Belief System album last year and of course Rob was asking me again for the mix. There was always something in the way, which is often how things can be in this game.

“Fast forward to April this year, and Rob called me in Amsterdam and asked me to do EE500. I immediately agreed and said, “three weeks”. Six months later, after driving Rob up the wall with frustration, I managed to find the time last week to make it happen. I had a right doss banging this lot out. I sincerely hope you enjoy the mix as much as I enjoyed putting it together.”

Back in 2016, Skee Mask and Zenker Brothers spontaneously attempted to play together at an afterparty in Prague, but after ten minutes the electricity failed. Two years later they finally had the opportunity to play a joint extended set for the first time - at Unsound Kraków 2018. The three DJs closed Saturday night in Hotel Forum with an expansive set building on adventurous forms of techno, jungle and broken beat, combining the collective interests of Ilian Tape. The set kicked off at 4am in the Ball Room.

@dannydaze has proven incredibly hard to pin down since he first emerged. After starting down a path that very quickly took him to the best clubs in the world but off the back of a sound that wasn't really his, he has managed to rewrite perceptions. After deciding to do things his own way, at his own pace, he is now known for what he really loves: techno, electro and IDM. Just recently he continued his collaborative work with Brazilian RHR on four dark, gritty and evocative cuts on OmniDisc, and has more music on the way soon on Schematic Records. 

This mix hints at what to expect from that EP, says Danny. "Due to the current conditions, I decided to go with chill zone session for this one mixed live with a bunch of the styles that influenced me over the last 20 years. Went a bit more trip-hop/IDM/electro with it which points to the direction the upcoming EP and album later in the year. Hope everyone has a nice week." So strap in for two freewheeling hours of interplanetary sonics, churning rhythms and otherworldly cinematics that will start your week right.
