Matured along a path paved with hip hop, Victor Crezée became a DJ whose sound could be considered truly coast-to-coast — beyond genre and never daft. We got to know Crezée through his collage-like radio shows where high-contrast music is cut, juxtaposed and narrated with film snippets. We share being suckers for Dutch Westcoast and MF DOOM, so we are happy to add Victor to our RUBBER TIJD series with a mix full of piss and vinegar.

Stay flexible, XR

As we stroll  into the summer, we're happy to provide you with a fresh splash by Avant Garbage. The London-based duo k means and DJ ojo got entangled over their love for peculiar sounds and offers you a monthly refill on Netil Radio , with the stranger margins of music, deftly balancing feelings of brightness and darkness.

This two-hour (!) mix channels their love for disorientating dub and crunchy rhythms, combining old favourites and new digs ~ all infused with the softness of a psychedelic teabag. Rejuvenate and replenish with this one!

As we sleigh into the holiday season, we pick up our tradition of putting out a Christmas special. A potent elixir of Xperimental and dark-not-dark specialties to bring some glow into everybody’s living room.

This year we are amped to share with you a mix quite close to home, The Westcoast to be precise. This year’s Christmas soundtrack is crafted by the North Sea Wolfpack, a femme collective of musicians, artists, creators, and producers that share a common love for sound in all its forms, and through their collective effort elevate one another and the (electronic) music scene.

The North Sea Wolfpack created a mix which is a collective effort of their members’ input resulting in an hour of cult-y off-beat carols and odes to this particular moment of the year. And of course a noteworthy mentioning Alina Valentina's secret stash that was added to the mix.

Have a flexible holiday!

p.s. the views expressed by the songs' artists are not necessarily our own — we wish everybody to keep their sofa.

RUBBER TIJD / X-Mess Special 5 (by The North Sea Wolfpack)

Zonetech is the collaboration between two familiar Squirrels, C.l.a.w.s. & Billy Bates. This digital only EP which was circulating among the Squirrels Crew like a secret handshake, is now available to everyone, mastered for digital using analog gear by Bay Area Industrial/Techno legend Mark Pistel.
­
Golden Hours is the sound of being stoned in the park on a beautiful Spring Day. The woozy pitch-shifted synthesizers are the cloudless blue sky to the fresh green grass of the quirky 808 drum patterns. If two stoners from Northern California who grew up playing in hardcore punk bands went back in time to record a track for the golden era of Warp Records it might sound like this. 

Ruby Ridge fits nicely in the Squirrels sound-world, albeit with a generous dose of cough syrup. Slow motion boogie to soundtrack John Carpenter's Escape From The Caribbean. Its robotic voodoo is infectious enough for dancing, but the tempo is slow & sexy.

It gets slower & sleazier with The Suspect. In an alternate universe, this is a goth hyphy anthem, chopped & screwed to a lean so droopy it almost falls apart. A sideshow at the skatepark, its groove is loose and its dub is heavy. It's the kind of beat teenagers make banging their fists on the lunch table at school.

Finally there is Emerald Icebergs pt. 2. Angular jazz funk, as if Yellow Magic Orchestra wrote the music for a hidden level of the original Castlevania,with a breakdancing battle between vampire broods. The unique drum programing that defines the whole EP is especially on display here, never anything but completely funky, but never in a typical way. The Zonetech beats also never sit still, they are always pushing & pulling, and always on the verge of launching into the digital dub stratosphere.

Zonetech- Various Zones EP

Really happy to have Lucy Cliché on the team. Lucy Cliché is a Sydney, Australia based musician who's been at it for a while now, playing music (and an occasional DJ) under various guises including Lucy Cliché and Loose-y Crunché, and collaboratively with Half High, Naked On The Vague, and Knitted Abyss. As Lucy Cliché she's released records on Fleisch and Noise In My Head. Lucy Cliché's music delivers a hard bitten exploration of how physicality and the ethereal can interact in music – heavy bass rhythms lock into pounding drums, washed over with synth chords and acid bleeps. 

She's wrote some words on the mix: 

"I've lovingly crafted this mix of some of my favourite (predominantly loosely electronic and experimental) Australian and New Zealand artists, with mostly newer tracks and a few older tracks to keep them in good company. This mix pretty much transverses through palettes of sounds that excite my ears and nurture my heart, with music from my intimate and broader music communities. During lock-down I've been reflecting on the importance of having a strong local (music) community, because Australia at the best of times is geographically isolated, but now borders are shut, so the local music community needs to be more self-sufficient, and I guess part of this involves positively reflecting inward with curiosity and admiration as to nurture what is here, valuing the labour and love of creating at a time of being so physically separated from the rest of the world."

André Uhl lives in Berlin. He will release a great album next month, called Relax and Implode, on the Martin Hossbach label. It's beautiful cinematic stuff, has this crystal clear production and is full of friction. I discovered his music through Frans Ambient’s amazing label, Kashual Plastik. One of the compilations featured André’s track, Talking Head, that I'm always caring with me. Keep an eye on him.

Hydrating new miXXX by none other than The 8th. Wonder of the World, Mister Robert Bergman! Not sure how many hours in a day he has but everything this cat touches turns into gold.

Robert and his BREW operation have been merciless crawling under our skin since it first sprout up a few years back.
His og approach to putting music out has, in a way, kept most of his stuff under the radar. Small quantity pressings contribute to feeding the junkie in  all of us and just when we think we’ve heard the best of Bobby, he comes back and scoops our little broken-sad bodies onto another dimension.

Robert has a new record out this week called “Champion Sound”.  Go take a sniff

Our yearly Christmas special is here again. A mix of experimental and non mainstream holiday music to lift the spirit. 

Much can be said about this years Christmas, or this year for that matter. However, I think we can all agree that music and other forms of creative expression turned out to be even more valuable than we thought. 
Because a lot of us will be celebrating Christmas in isolation we've decided to make this mix for you and made by you. The track selection for this years mix has been largely provided by the lovely people in the 'strange music from beyond' online community. If we can't celebrate together, let's create together. Thank you and have a happy experimental holiday! 

Tracklist:
Ryuchi Sakamoto - Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence
Psychic TV - White Nights
Vince Guaraldi Trio - Christmas Is Coming
Robin Guthrie - Snowfall
Lisi - My Silent Night
Jackie Mittoo, Bagga, Pablove Black & Devon Russell - After Christmas

RUBBER TIJD / X-Mess Special 4

After a short holiday break we are happy to share the next Rubber Tijd with you. We warmly welcome our first artist of the year and number 81 on the show: Eddie Peake. 

For this podcast Peake presents Memory Cycle 2, an audio piece from a series of sound works he has been making in recent years.

“They are an attempt to recreate as definitive recordings the live DJ sets I play in my performance work. Whereas in my performances they are ephemeral and reactive, here they are somewhat more calculated, although in both instances, chance and coincidence is important. They are collages of looping motifs drawn from a palette of original recordings, voice memos and field-recordings to evoke a sense of nostalgia, the subjective and inaccurate nature of memories, the repetitive and spiralling ideation of an obsessive or psychopathic mind.”

Eddie Peake is a London based Artist and DJ and his work includes performance, video, photography, painting, sculpture, sound and installation. It has tended to take the form of non-linear, immersive exhibitions, usually presented as a web of incongruously and yet inextricably connected discrete objects. Looping or repetitive forms are a prominent element, as is the theme of the inadequacy of verbal language in representing phenomena such as emotions, memories or modes of communication which are not verbal. Another of its foci is the implicit drama within relationships between people, whether they are familial, professional, romantic, sexual or social, and how desire, sexuality, socio-political and cultural constructs, as well as psychological states such as depression impact on them. Peake also DJs under a pseudonym and runs a record label imprint called Hymn.

We are very happy to have him on the team and hope you enjoy Memory Cycle 2.

Stay flexible!
