Ron Like Hell for Studio 96 Nocturnal Wax #179 01.28. 2022

After a 5 year hiatus, Tel Aviv based artist Naduve, returns to Cocktail d’Amore Music with Hypogeum. Each of these tracks facilitates its own special part in the life of party. Starting off on a hypnotic and forward driven note Echo Wave Bay leads dancers perfectly into hypnosis with its trance inducing melodies which wave upward and downward. Title track Hypogeum begins to pull on the heart strings with its soft synths floating over pastel textures before giving way to the aptly titled FX Jungle, a deep trip into the low lying canopies of your imagination. Ending where we began Thursday Gem explores the same cyclical themes as Echo Wave but in a subdued fashion making it a perfect choice for winding down any raucous party.

A1  Echo Wave Bay

For our 10th release and 5th anniversary, we've involved some good friends of the label whose work we greatly admire.

Greco-German power couple Local Suicide has teamed up with kindred spirit Skelesys to deliver two killer original tracks for the 'No Evidence' EP.

The title track, inspired by old detective novels, blends Local Suicide's signature dark and moody sound with Skelesys' haunting melodies and subtle grooves.

'Weird Encounters' conjures up heavy Berlin vibes (no coincidence, as all three musicians currently make the city their home), taking the listener on a girl's disorienting journey while lost at a party.

'No Evidence' gets the remix treatment from both Intergalactic Gary (Viewlexx), interpreting it as a hypnotic future classic EBM version, and Samo head honcho Facets, who offers a high-energy, arpeggiated take on the original. Anatolian Weapons (Beats in Space) deconstructs 'Weird Encounters' and transforms it into a full-on rave machine.

No Evidence is out March 4th on limited vinyl and digital.

The North of England is known for its musical prowess. Middlesbrough born Rees taps into that musical history while diving deep into lost disco, obscure wave and even the Middle East for his debut for Bordello. Three Eyes is a melting pot. Setting sail on bold beats and rumbling synthlines, Rees steers the listener through cascading chords, shimmering key shifts and serenading sirens to produce a truly unique dancefloor experience. Tjade, of Koi Jaye fame, is on remix duty. The winning formula of the original is adhered to with adjustments and ablutions guiding this interpretation. BPMs rise to give a fresh burst of energy. Rees’ melody is given extra muscle with those same mesmerizing vocals being a driving force for this superb remix. Dynamic and diverse dancefloor dynamite from the Paradiso label boss.

INCOMING : Azole - Tensioner #WhereWereWe

Release date : 2022-02-11

Buy :  https://wherewerewe.bandcamp.com/album/mr-sutherland

After the success of the first four releases, Where Were We is back with a new one. This is yet again to commemorate WWW b-day and the fact that the project is turning 4 years old this February.
Azole project hides 2 new and exciting fellas from Moscow. And their offering feels more like a complete album than just a regular EP.
Mr. Sutherland EP is an allusion to a famous Australian keyboard virtuoso with the same surname and even though keyboard solos might not be that lavish and jazzy when compared to their counterpart, they are definitely there and will take you for a dreamy ride in outer space.
Most of the track names in the album are organic and refer to the living world, so we hope that while listening to these compositions you will feel how intricately everything is interlinked not only here on planet Earth, but also in all vastness of the universe. Enjoy the trip!

INCOMING : Azole - Tensioner #WhereWereWe

Currently based in Vancouver, BC, Adam 2 (@adamtwo) is a DJ, producer, organizer, and perhaps above all, a devotee of the dancefloor. They are the kind of person who's likely to have a meet-cute story with a surprising number of your friends from everywhere in the world (we met over a popsicle in the front row of No Way Back once upon a time). They bring the same spirit of community and giving they bring to the dancefloor to their engagement with the music community, most recently through their label @pprzrecords with DJ Hockey and their Afrofuturism is NOW mix series.

Read the interview and see a tracklist:
https://spontaneous.zone/045-adam-2

"So for mixes usually, I’ll find a few songs which have a common narrative/story. Then with that narrative in mind, I'll think about what the start and the end of the story sound like and do I have songs which I can use for the start and the end. I’ll usually then split the mix into 2-3 parts (3 parts for a recorded mix, 2 parts for a live performance) and each part will have the same shared theme but different energy levels.

For this one, I had a few electro tracks which weren’t really based on phrases, but were long and evolving, so I could mix them as textures kinda like how I would mix techno. There is a mix of electro/bass/techno throughout, however I purposely tried to avoid songs with 4x4 kick patterns.

In terms of a narrative I envisioned a soundtrack to a science fiction movie, recounting a story of a journey gone wrong, and elements known (science) vs. elements unknown (religion/ritual). It is always interesting to reflect on when a mix was recorded and how it reflects that period of time; for me it reflects a period of Winter, an ongoing pandemic and a bleak view of the future. I wouldn’t be able to record the same mix now because I am in such a different place emotionally and musically compared to a few months ago.

It was honestly so fascinating while writing the interview for this mix series to realize I’d come full circle and I was playing electro again but in a new way, after discovering it years ago and leaving it behind after getting so tired of it."

"Bariloche" | Deep House February Mix

Name: Ron Like Hell (@ronlikehell)
Pronouns: they/he
Location: Brooklyn, NY-USA
 
Influences:
fuzzy guitars with feedback, bass drums, soft lit ominous spaces, long shadows, the month of October
 
Affiliations/Residencies/Projects:
I play where it feels right and where my fellow queer community will be respected. I am also one half of Wrecked, a dj duo and music first party that throws mostly monthly events plus massive Pride and NYD parties.
 
Favorite Quote:
The truth is rarely pure and never simple. - Oscar Wilde
 
Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:
Be yourself and do your best to let go of "perfection", it just does not exist. Ride the rhythm not the cue mark. Practice with any two records and/or tracks. Play YOUR beat in the mix, your friendships and with life in general. Less surrender to being salty may not be so cool these days but it will welcome a more patient attitude with yourself and help those that you love.

Daisychain 259 - Ron Like Hell

With 30 years of djing in numerous countries, Ron Like Hell has no intention of doing anything else in their lifetime. They produce queer centered events in NYC both solo and as part of the dj duo Wrecked. Ron’s support of young artists in the music industry is unquestionably genuine as they have shared their spotlight with djs in their radio show and parties. Hard to pin as dj of one particular genre is not a concern to Ron. With 26+ years of record store experience their excitement for music goes deep appreciating many genres which provide infinite inspiration. They still love programming their music for a single genre dance party. Indulging such events is in no way an obstacle or compromise. For Ron, it is similar to painting with oil instead of acrylic. There is no intention of being the greatest dj championing specific one or two genres as they prefer to be known as an eclectic dj that reads the room as best they can. Being so eclectic doesn't seem to prohibit their appeal from techno, disco and house music forward bookings..if anything it has increased their recognition and respect from some of the world's best parties and venues. A few of the most notable spaces are Panorama Bar, Lab.oratory and Ost (Berlin), Dekmantel Selectors, Draaimolen (Netherlands), Sustain-Release, Honcho Campout and residencies at Basement and Nowadays in the NYC area. Their creativity has even been immortalized on physical media with a dj mix on a one-sided vinyl accompaniment to Baxter Dury’s 2024 album, “I Thought I was Better Than You” and a mixtape for Mister Saturday Night Records MSN Tape series Their role in the industry is undeniably unique and influential.


Online features and words about Ron Like Hell


Via mistersaturdaynight records:
“Up next in our cassette DJ mix series is our neighbor, friend and beloved hometown hero Ron Like Hell. Eclectic is an overused word in dance music circles but in this instance it is an apt and deserving description of an artist whose years working in record stores and 26 plus years behind the decks afford him a musical knowledge and emotional understanding of a dancefloor for which there is no shortcut. This is mastery at work. Ron delivers two complimentary mixes, a home recording on side A and a recording from the booth at Nowadays from an all-night set on Halloween night 2024. Very limited run on this one so do not hesitate.”


Via Draaimolen Island: 

“Brooklyn’s Aurora Halal is rooted in the underground DIY scene of her city. Her shadowy and metallic DJ sets are sensual and forward thinking. Next to playing and making music, she is also the founder of festival Sustain-Release and co-host of this years (2024) Draaimolen Island. Ron Like Hell plays eclectic, assemblage-style sets with an obscure mix of techno, house, acid and disco. Both are no strangers to each other. In fact, the two have played quite a few times since 2018. With all this experience this back to back will set the dancefloor on fire for sure. Think psychedelic landscapes and long build-ups.”


Via TRUANTS Truancy dj mix series:
Interview & feature

Nowadays Sustain-Release Nonstop description on Resident Advisor:
“Sustain-Release founder Aurora Halal and WRECKED founder and local sweetheart Ron Like Hell come back together for another extended back-to-back set – a pairing that has stirred the cauldron on dancefloors ranging from a previous Nonstop, to Brooklyn rave MERGE, to Draaimolen Festival x Sustain-Release.”

Slugging in for Viscera 028 is Carolain Luf.

Shredding up the scene for the past few years, Berlin based Caro has been showcasing her magical talents with her unreal fluctuations docking on labels such as Whatiplay, Gruuv and Nein Records. All are insanely mythical.
 
Her talents do not stop there, as an effusive performer, Caro regularly DJs in clubs all over Berlin and demonstrates her keen eye for detail. If you haven't caught her yet, you definitely should.

It's time to let this alien abduction take place. We'll let the mix do the rest of the talking.

Stomping in all the way from Madrid to deliver Viscera 029 is Rotten City Records head honcho, Alvaro Cabana.

DJing since the late 90’s and residing at clubs such as Mondo Disko and Coppelia, Alvaro has been long in the game and it shows through his performances. His sets consist of different moods that span across a variety of his most loved genres, moulding into one elegant journey.  

As a man with many expertise, Alvaro has locked his production laser missiles on a whole variety of wonderful labels and they never go a miss. Forming 1/3 of D.Y.O.R, 1/3 of Silent Echoes and 1/2 of Los López, Cabana has released some of Viscera’s most admired music to date.

Expect the usual from Alvaro, a selection of slow motion leftfield squelching sludge, psychedelic new-wave rhythms and enigmatic down-tempo slipperiness.

Next up is the fantastic duo Kiara Scuro. A pair of London based ladies who are taking the city by storm. 

Rosie and Nadia are steadily making waves as they embark upon a musical voyage which is bound to see them travel far. The pair have exceptional taste which is perhaps best showcased via their appearances on Balamii Radio. Together they play an eclectic array of electronic music which spans a magnificently wide breadth - from new wave to post punk, electro to house, synth escapades to abstract techno and so much more. They meander between genres and styles with exceptional style and grace. These two are the real deal. 

We invited them to contribute to our ever growing mix series as they deliver an assortment of music which they describe as a representation of 'dark desires'.

Girls on Shoulders!

Today's mix comes courtesy of German DJ/producer/label owner Mathias Modica! More commonly found recording under his Munk alias, he also runs the much loved Gomma and Toy Tonics imprints, with a third one called Kryptox on the way. Somehow, in-between all his many projects, he's found the time to record this eclectic Friday mix for us comprised of 100% super rare german punk funk and new wave funk from 1979 - 84.

Mathias Modica: The 'Teutonik Disaster 2018' Ransom Note Mix

Hailing from the North, Laurence McAulay is a London based disc jockey who has been steadily piecing together a musical identity amidst the busy capital. He has been a steady figure in the Glasgow dance and electronic music scene for many years having founded the Vicious Creatures party series which has been hosted prominently at Sub Club across many years. More recently he has brought the longstanding venture to London where he has hosted bustling parties at The Waiting Room in East London with the likes of Job Sifre, Oceanic, Johannes Albert and Andy Blake all having joined Lárus behind the decks in his new found home. 

As a dj his style is broad and varied, channeling energy from the days of trance and hardcore through to the more abstract and dynamic realms of disco, bass, house and techno. Expect the unexpected and you will be sure to learn a trick or two from a man who was brought up with two feet firmly rooted on the dancefloor. 

We are delighted to feature him as part of our shine a light on series...

Lárus: The 'Shine A Light On' Mix

Last summer, i was asked to play a “beatless” set at Stella Polaris in Copenhagen. I didn’t even believe the mandate. The instructions were clear, if bizarre,… NO dancing. 
After the tyranny/fun of 25 years of making people dance, i felt an incredible freedom and joy in this most basic of requests….. and ended up having a truly magical time, in the sunshine, outdoors in a park in Copenhagen with 25000 people sitting on that grass (including Daniel Miller). There were a handful of records that i had never played before, but always wanted to….. one of my favorites from The KLF “Chill Out” album, a seminal This Mortal Coil song from the early 90s rave days, and a Kate Bush song that is a personal anthem. many of these being my all-time favourites songs.. When i closed with “Under The Ivy” i actually had a tear in my eye (a first) …just to feel the power of music, and the rush or joy and relief and, yes, LOVE for these songs that have chronicled  my entire life. 

and of course i found it IMPOSSIBLE to not throw a few dance beats in there……i am hopeless. beyond salvation.

Whatever Forever #043

Mixed live for PRIDE 2020 Sound Of New York livestream on The Lot Radio. Our virtual dance-a-thon was a fundraiser for The Okra Project, Black Trans Travel Fund, For the Gworls, Black Trans Femmes in the Arts, Trans Women of Color Survival Fund, G.L.I.T.S. Inc., New Alternatives and some of the streaming artists that needed financial assistance due to the nightlife economy being shut down. LGBTQ+ community from around the planet often travel to NYC specifically for Pride so we highlighted a wide assortment of local area talent to show the world a diverse appreciation of beats and expression. Collectively, it came together far easier than we thought especially during an unprecedented era therefore a tremendous thank you to @thelotradio for hosting everything, Good Room & Elsewhere for the live remote access and use of their DJ equipment, every single DJ and collective for their art of the mix and last but not least YOU for supporting not only your faves but also contributing to very important causes throughout the "party". Black Trans Lives Matter everyday. Without blind love for one another we simply fail to do more for our rights, our extended Q+ families and the next generation of free belief spirit. 
Love, The Carry Nation & Wrecked/Ron

Juanita's Mix 28 with Ron Like Hell @ronlikehell

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. I have been a music enthusiast since age 9 (playing violin then tenor sax), bought records with my weekly allowance every Friday night when I was a kid. Loved seeing DJs in the 80s but a visit to NYC in 1990 changed my life after hearing the city's DJs "say" different things with their records which were all non-top 40 tunes. A big door opened and I went through never looking back being eclectic as possible.

Q. How long have you been a part of the NYC music scene?
A. I moved to NYC in March of 1998. After 8 months, I became an employee of Satellite Records selling records to every dance music head that rolled through the city. It was both fun and very hard work. After 2001, retail struggled hard so I worked part time jobs at other record shops while I sold records online and did my best to play music I owned that people wanted to hear in the non-loving house music days pre-2009. Stuff like obscure synth, rare disco, italo, ebm and psych rock were my go-tos to play but I still collected house records even if they were just for me to enjoy. In 2009 I partnered with a buddy as a DJ duo then later we named ourselves Wrecked in 2011, a major left turn of a party for the NYC gay/queer nightlife scene which I never had an opportunity to play for. Being accepted by that community truly helped me feel like I finally gave something back to the city that taught and continues to teach me so much.

Q. Tell us about this mix.
A. The mixes on Juanita's are a great example of Brooklyn's finest and friendliest DJs. Since the series was launched, many of the mixes are helping me through these heavy modern times so I wanted to give back what those mixes gave me which is comfort and joy.  My approach was to include bumping, patient, soulful, dubby and trippy music. Something to help you relax yet dance nice and easy to...or get your head nodding, raising the volume as you chill with your friends on the couch. I had a wonderful time making it so a tremendous thank you for asking me to contribute.
