↓ ↓ ↓ INTERVIEW WITH MAX ↓ ↓ ↓

Q: Thanks for your contribution to our mix series, how did you prepare for this mix, and how would you describe the result?

A: Thanks for having me on your loveley mix-series. I wanted to create a positive and laidback dance vibe using diverse but still cohesive tracks. It begins with an atmospheric synth intro followed by sunny italo groovers and cheesy 80s gems for home-shuffling and ends up with an extended chill-anthem to put you back to sleep.
Preparation started with scrolling through unsorted iTunes folders and the “newly bought” section of my record shelf. After setting a rough order I pressed record and tried my best to go with the flow. One or two bottles of local giesinger beer helped to get intro the groove..

Q: Is there a record in the mix that you associate with a special story?

A: The first track from synthesizer-wizard CV VISION is a special one. My colleagues and me at Toy Tonics and Kryptox Records were quite busy in the last months putting together a new compilation called “Kraut Jazz Futurism”. CV VISION contributed this exclusive cinematic synth trip called “1TheU” - its my favorite one and im happy its finally released.

Q: How do you dig for music, and/or what kind of things arouse your interest in a record? 

A: I was never the guy spending hours of hours in record shops... more like the internet nerd browsing through blogs, discogs groups and dj-mixes. Finding unknown treasure chests to go through and opening hundreds of browser tabs is what makes me happy - and sometimes frustrated as well. The factors which arouses my interest in a record are mainly an appealing artwork and wording. If it also contains different track versions, like a dub mix or the often better “version”-version, its obviously worth a listen. 

Q: One record you will never let go, and one that doesn’t want to leave your wantlist?

A: “Spacer Woman” by Sheila & B.Devotion is one 
record I cant let go. Its not a secret gem but the 
addictive energy and the Nile Rodgers baseline makes it to one of THE ultimate disco tracks plus 
a sureshot on the dancefloor.
The latest track I was really hooked to get the ID was that unknown Italo-Disco track playing on a video tape recorded at a party in Goa back in the late 80s. In 2020 this mysterious track became quite a phenomenon in many disco-forums and comment sections as nobody knew what it was. Experts and disco enthusiasts from all over the world were consulted in finding it. The whole story of the track and the final title was revealed on Intergalactic FM a few weeks ago. So cool to see how the people worked together in such unusual ways to solve the mystery.

Q: Music bonds people together. Any local DJs/projects/shops/... you would like to shout out?

A: I want to shoutout the girls n boys from non profit online platform radio80k. Since 6 years they are offering a diverse mix of radio-shows from the local scene. Im excited that I got the opportunity to host a monthly show there as well, where I can play dancefloor orientated music on a regular basis. 
Another great project to mention is Alternative Fakten. The collective around Tom Zwotausend is bringing open minded weird and obscure electronic sounds on the Munich map by hosting events and releasing music as an own label. 
More greetings go out to Tobi and his nice crew from cucurucu bar. The small venue, offers a various crowd and open minded music. My homie Komnen (aka DJ Kneipe) and me played regularly as WIGGY at the bar before lockdown and experienced some exciting sweaty nights there. Hope they weather the crisis and can re-open again soon.

Hum Radio 010 (mixed by Condor)

Ten is the base of the decimal numeral system, by far the most common system of denoting numbers in both spoken and written language. The Greeks called ten a perfect number, because it’s equivalent to the number of fingers on human hands.

And as a representative of Tropicaldo's first double-digit set, we invited the 1/2 Brazilian and 1/2 German and Berlin resident, Phil OG. Also 1/2 of the duo Balearic Banana, which presents unique mix series with a beautiful musical research, as well as guests with unique curatorship.

“I own this Flexi-disc from National Geographic where Dr. Roger S. Payne talks about the songs of the Humpback Whales and points out that a recording of their songs was put into the Voyager spacecraft, as one of the many greetings from earth to be discovered and decoded by some other space faring civilization within its 1.2 billion years journey. 

One thing that strangely brings me comfort in turbulent times, such as what we are experiencing, is the text Carl Sagan wrote about earth as Voyager 1 took a picture 6.4 billion kilometers away from earth.

“Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every ‘superstar’, every ‘supreme leader’, every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there - on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.”

This whole story of this ‘bottle message’ from earth got me thinking, what I would like to put in if I had the task summarize my perspective of the tropical sound. I hope you enjoy the result”

Dez é a base do sistema numérico decimal, de longe o sistema mais comum de denotar números na linguagem falada e escrita. Os gregos chamavam dez de um número perfeito, porque equivale ao número de dedos nas mãos humanas. 

E como representante do primeiro set de dois dígitos da Tropicaldo, convidamos o 1/2 brasileiro e 1/2 alemão e morador de Berlin, Phil OG. Também 1/2 do duo Balearic Banana, que apresenta mix series únicos com uma belíssima pesquisa musical, além de convidados de curadoria ímpar.

“Eu possuo este disco flexi da National Geographic onde o Dr. Roger S. Payne fala sobre as canções das Baleias Jubarte e menciona que uma gravação de suas canções foi colocada na espaçonave Voyager, como uma das muitas saudações da Terra a serem descobertos e decodificados por alguma outra civilização espacial em sua jornada de 1,2 bilhão de anos.

Uma coisa que estranhamente me traz conforto em tempos turbulentos, como o que estamos vivenciando, é o texto que Carl Sagan escreveu sobre a Terra quando a Voyager 1 tirou uma foto de 6,4 bilhões de quilômetros da terra.

‘Olhem de novo esse ponto. É aqui, é a nossa casa, somos nós. Nele, todos a quem ama, todos a quem conhece, qualquer um sobre quem você ouviu falar, cada ser humano que já existiu, viveram as suas vidas. O conjunto da nossa alegria e nosso sofrimento, milhares de religiões, ideologias e doutrinas econômicas confiantes, cada caçador e coletor, cada herói e covarde, cada criador e destruidor da civilização, cada rei e camponês, cada jovem casal de namorados, cada mãe e pai, criança cheia de esperança, inventor e explorador, cada professor de ética, cada político corrupto, cada "superestrela", cada "líder supremo", cada santo e pecador na história da nossa espécie viveu ali - em um grão de pó suspenso num raio de sol.’

Toda essa história da ‘mensagem na garrafa’ da terra me fez pensar, o que eu gostaria de acrescentar se tivesse a tarefa de resumir minha perspectiva do som tropical. Espero que gostem”
