Fresh meat! We're excited to announce the first of two new arrivals to the FACETS gäng. In our 45th episode of our podcast series we want to introduce you to Arousal - a young & aspiring DJ from Munich. Being with us for a while now and sharing the mindset towards the music, the scene and beyond we've found a perfect match in him and are happy to have him on board.

Arousals' interest in the electronic styles first took hold when he began listening DnB and its various sub-genres. With time and his first visit to Berlin his taste shifted towards Techno and with having world-class clubs like the former MMA or the infamous Rote Sonne in his home town of Munich, the path was set. Joining the creative side of the spectrum and still exploring his own style, he eventually got to perform at his first B2B gig. Gaining more experience while playing numerous times at the Ravescape Collective parties in Munich, he also co-launched his own event imprint called Accelerate. Among his influences are names like Kanding Ray, Tommy Four Seven, UVB, Voiski and Regis.

@vlaeminckofficial

Vlaeminck se define con un aire experimental oscuro donde su libertad estilística desata lo común para tejer un estilo electrónico definido y personal.

Productor musical, creador minucioso con matices sombríos, innova con patrones de música techno y experimental, empatizando con el oído más exigente de sonidos electrónicos.

Artista de ritmos contundentes intuidos en cada Live, a base de instrumentos analógicos envuelve sus sesiones de armonías y contrastes, siempre obscuras, con efectos propios, seductores y funcionales para la incansable pista de baile.

En su trayectoria musical, ha editado en sellos como Rhod Records, Analog Solutions y Shift Functions. En este último colabora con Eduardo de la Calle aportando cuatro cortes en una edición limitada de vinilos.

Maneuvering deftly through texture and tempo and mixed with expert finesse, our latest podcast from Sweden's Vicky Zissou is a bold display from an artist fiercely in her element.  Her new collaborative EP with Hampus Bogren (Skóll) as Matilda and an appearance on the forthcoming NFEREE compilation mark an impressive year for the producer, one whose output we'll be watching closely.

More from Vicky:

Sure Thing Mix 81: Vicky Zissou

He’s just as focussed on musical dynamics; with expansive chords but intimate effects, and how sounds move about in the club as well as in your head. He makes soundscapes rather than tracks, where euphoric moods and thunderous basslines can coexist, and where minute little details capture your mind’s eye while punchy drum work makes an immediate physical impact. He explores the rough and the smooth, the loud and the quiet, the cerebral and the visceral in aquatic and naturalistic worlds where electro, techno, dub and ambient are blurred into one. 

This means that as both a producer and comprehensive live act, the Dutchman can take you from the furthest reaches of outer space to the depths of an oceanic abyss via crackling and frozen tundras. He does so under three aliases—VC-118A, Mohlao, Multicast Dynamics, but all are interconnected and related, with a modular approach to making and performing music meaning that a pumping breakbeat live-set can easily be transformed into an abstract sonic landscape by reducing and modifying elements, playing with textures and reworking structures. 

“I’m always searching for a duality, something that marries dance floor functionality with an end of the world melodrama that gets deep inside your head,” says the artist. “My process is intuitive and unplanned, so I can start with sound design and atmospherics first, or get lost in rhythms.” This understanding of narrative, as well as groove, means that whatever alias he assumes, he can pump out a peak time festival set, twist you inside out with an intimate session in a cosy club or play an experimental soundscape set in more thought provoking settings with his own avant garde visuals. Dancers at cult places like Tresor, Denovali Festival and a Boiler Room showcase in Nijmegen have all experienced this in the recent past. 

Known by electronic music obsessives as one of electro’s shining lights, the last decade has seen van Dijk excel in both EP and LP format. His achingly beautiful melancholic moods and roomy, absorbing grooves are so fully realised that they work well beyond the club context and have come on top labels like Delsin, Frustrated Funk and Silent Season amongst others. They include highlights like the tension between raw machine sounds and ethereal pads that were explored on VC-118A’s underground classic Vaxna; Shift Register, which was made from largely one-take hardware jams with an instinctive and lo-fi finish, and the slow burning techno of Mohlao’s Landforms LP. Of course, his Multicast Dynamics album quadrilogy on Denovali also laid out immersive ambient worlds in truly escapist ways. 

The future will bring more multi-layered interplay between these varied but related projects on both solo and collaborative releases. This exploration of opposing forces will continue in the live arena, too, where van Dijk can arrest your attention with thrilling sets of guttural and gritty techno, take you into the future with his electro or zone you out with cathartic ambient. Whatever he does, dance floor experiences are rarely as immersive and emotional as those crafted by this multifaceted artist.
