Pardonax - Schädeltrauma [SWAN-225]

Wanted to move feelings I had. Which I could never give a place no matter how much I talked about it. Or other things...

Tried something for 1.5 years which included 4 versions until I had this piece. By far the best and it helped me to let the feelings go mostly. After keeping it to myself and a select group of people for a year or so. I had the chance to release it on vinyl. 

And then it got played at a party, 4 years after the whole back story started. With 1 day difference (even the same location...). The circle was full and I could finally let it go... Finally.
Music is so wonderfull.

First time trying to do a digital mix in front of a crowd. On a controller I hardly understand and with other people's traxx... So expect some mistakes. But luckily with Wolffy for a quick rescue where needed. Nice selection of 90s industrial, terror and harder gabber with the exclusion of one tune from after 2010...

Thanxx to Eva for trying too help me and learn it... And at the party help me through this process... Luckily it was a self organised private party... Thanxx to all who helped or attended it.

Going from 215 to 250 BPM...

All traxx take inspiration from the more 8bit based hardcore. Which to me always was a bit more harsh, dark & rough in style. Often a focus on hip hop samples, guitars or stabby, dark, melodies. Also some humor and moments of dissing... Mostly made on old software and/or machines. As the software was accessible alot of people around the world used it and still do. I also took inspiration from multiple artists from around the globe... Which resulted in a creative & varied approach.

Going from 230 to 260 BPM...

This is a home recording of the set I played at Underworld, the 14th of june. Initially I prepared a full 60min. set but due to lineup changes I could only play 45min. instead... As this was to be my first (solo) DJ set this felt a bit shit. For that reason I decided to upload the plannend version, so everyone who wants can experience the full set.

For this set I wanted to do an all terror(ish) hardcore. But with a twist... As all traxx are with a decent amount of pitching (either up or downwards) but the complete BPM goes downwards... Geuss you can say most traxx have a... Negative Drop. It probaly has been done before but it's a idea I always wanted to hear or do myself ever since I became obsessed with this musick.

Picture taken from a screenshot of a video of a video someone took of me with his old nokia. Thanxx Jaimy...

Thanxx to Ritchie (& crew) for the oppertunity and Eva for helping me around with Rekordbox...

Going from 270 to 245 BPM...
