Soft Spots | Echobox Radio

Time stops in the endless stream of sonic transmission. If you dive into Te Iubesc’s webradio channel, one will soon find themselves immersed in a vast comic broadcast. At some point, one slips into distant dreamworlds, transfixed under the colourful spell of the imagination. Traversing dimensions, morphing spaces, an endless accretion of sounds crossing all dots and into uncharted territory.

Listen closely and you’ll find a red thread that brings them all together. Threaded by its Parisian creator, Dawidu, the webradio is a perennial project fuelled by unceasing curiosity and unresolved endings. Also a personal repository of thoughts and emotions, such an eternal broadcast can map histories, but also eventually seems to transcend time itself. Dawidu is the navigator of these timeless worlds, unlimited in the scope of his inquiry, and indefatigable in his search for the undiscovered.

“Looking for music and playing are the only activities in which I lose complete track of time, and live in the Now. It’s definitely some sort of meditation for me.”

Recorded live at Corvin Club, July '18

The first episode of our long-awaited podcast series is finally here. It's a raw and crunchy extract of the night when we were lucky enough to have our buddy Andrew James Gustav as our guest in Budapest.

Podcast 001 - Andrew James Gustav (Marginal Returns)

Introducing 2stepBec of the @bizarretrax collective. Bex has put together a mix in her usual style, sexy downbeat meets classy RnB.  Pure Saturday morning music. Best believe it's gonna be getting some spins in the Tweek household.

STUNTS 005 - Phil Evans

Founder of the Neutral Ground parties alongside Hicham and more recently Serate, Brassac has been steadily making a name for himself over the last few years. A regular in his native Belgium and all around Europe, he’s forged a reputation as a consistently refined artist with a deep, eclectic collection. 

This mix is very much in that vein; traversing a number of genres with some bold, obscure selections but with a cohesive thread running through it.

For our eight podcast we are stoked to welcome OG german deejay Estimulo, who crafts an effortlessly summery housey journey, nicely balanced between old and new cuts!

Time to welcome a peerless selector that we met months ago when she settled here in Nantes. A period that was definitely too short… Now she’s ready to kick things back in New York City 🍎🥏🌟

Malom hits the box for the latest Soft Spots, showing off his love for reggae and roots. Pure sunshine music to close out the summer or to brighten up a rainy day. Seb then finishes with a nice mix of house groovers. I do the warm up with some 100bpm chug & dub. It's a lovely show, filled with good vibes and tons of different styles of music - exactly what soft spots is all about :)

Slovenia's finest are in the building for the latest Soft Spots!

DJ couple Nika & Martin, have been digging dope records together for the best part of 15 years, so it was a real pleasure to have them share a special soft spot theme - focusing on music that represents key moments of their relationship over the years. The records are killer and the stories make ya heart warm - what's not to like! 

I keep things very downtempo and experimental for the first 45 with a selection of slow jams from all around the globe.

For the last show of the 2023 top gizza, koen.fm, joins me in the studio. He shares a Soft Spot focusing on the music he plays in the classroom during his day job as a school teacher. There's some funny and heart warming stories in there, including highly rated song suggestions from an 8yr old and Koen sharing music that actually makes plants grow (true story!!).

The whole two hours is a subtle ride through ambient, triphop, ethereal instrumentals and all round downtempo goodness to sooth the soul.

Jack Darwin, Breathe Records top boy, joins RTD in the studio for the first Soft Spots of 2024. He shares music around the theme of Nostalgia, taking a trip down memory lane and sharing some musical stories along the way. Expect lots of odd-ball downbeat, late 80s UK elecontronica and plenty of silly chatter from the both of us.

For the latest Softs Spots show we welcome the lovely @adren_alina to the studio, whilst visiting from Berlin. She runs the wicked @smoovemoceanrec label along with her partner @atree-music. Alina shared a soft spot focusing on some of her favourite female artists from the late 80s and 90s. Expect synth fused house, funk pumpers and plenty of interesting stories behind her selection. Super happy to have her in the studio, she is a cracking DJ with impeccable taste!

LIZECAST 021

Sound by DJ Pipe

The Lizecast is a monthly episode representing our desires in sound as a label and artist collective. Each episode features a one to two hours sound conglomerate by one of our befriended producers and djs or by ourselves.

Dylan Thompson is originally from Widnes which is a little town just outside Liverpool. He studied Geography at Leeds University and moved to Berlin last year. He told us that he had just graduated and didn't really fancy moving to London. But moving closer to the scene and the music he passionately loves was definitely on his agenda. 

So Berlin it was, also due to the fact that he had a few friends living here already which made the decision easier for him. Josh - who is one of them friends - used to throw a regular night at Chalet so he also got to play quite a lot right from the start. 

These days he often teams up with Matthew Unicomb aka Preesh Mendez and Philip Kearney who run a party called "The Buff Dance", a beautiful hang out with exceptional music, mostly at Club der Visionaere or Hoppetosse.

Thank you Dylan for this beautiful podcast which contains a great deal of wonderful rare break and minimal records <3

LIZECAST 021 - by DJ Pipe

the downstairs room in hoppetosse is a special one. incredible sound system, crystal clear and super subby, a djs dream, it was the perfect setting for the chance to play some of my all time classic chillout tracks and a few trippy downtempo mindbenders. turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream...........
