Bassiani Podcast 98 is a no holds barred sonic assault by Neukölln native Somewhen. Packed with looping baselines, racing hi-hats and industrial flair, this cyborg clarion call from the SANA label boss is brazen, unadulterated techno for a post-pandemic future.

Bassiani invites Somewhen / Podcast #98

With over 10,000 records to his name, DJ Nobu is deeply immersed in a wealth of sounds ranging from uncomplicated club anthems to those more experimental in nature. His Future Terror parties, hypnotising sets and lean catalogue have largely cultivated a reputation for menacing techno, though lucky for his fans he’s just as adept when it comes to upbeat house. For this, his second Bassiani Podcast outing, the latter takes the stage with the Japanese polymath delivering a three hour set of light and playful beats recorded live at Horoom in early April. Mixing everything from cheesy disco to tropical synths, this is a breath of fresh air from the sought-after cult figure from Chiba.

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Ello, I’m Jackson. Pronouns are He/Him. Residing in Eora/Sydney

Who/what currently inspires you music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

Water and light mostly 

What is your favorite party/collective where you reside and why?

Too many faves. Some heavy hitters off the top are Umami/Echo Flats/Heavenly/Community Chest. They are %100 in it for the experience. Community Chest is a joint force crew of about 7 great crews from Sydney – It’s kinda like when the power rangers come together to make that big robot fighter guy

What was your best moment at the supermarket?

They were playing Bill Withers in a Woollies once and it got me

What is your most recent favorite DJ mix and why?

Max D – Indie Rock on C- was maybe the last one that got me good. Max D only plays by Max D’s rules

Any advice to upcoming DJs/producers? 

Enjoy your life & be kind to others

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

More love and respect, always

AliA at Praia - Waking Life '23

Epic live recording of a 12+ hour set from the Wild Wild Country of Shaniko Oregon. A two night event of wild abandon in the outer realms of society and the physical/mental plains of existence.  Part 1 starts at 10 pm on Day 2 of the festivities when everyone was already primed to go.  I ended the set around 10:30 or 11 am the next morning.

An episode that feels well overdue yet thoroughly worth the wait! A titan of the Naarm underground music scene, Pjenné has been a kindred spirit and longtime pal since the early days of MDC, and it's no surprise that her contribution is packed full of gloriously deep and immersive feels, bassy and driving in parts and light as a feather in others, speaking to a palette that has been meticulously explored and continues to evolve along with her incredible weekly radio show on PBS, Passing Notes.

Q. What sounds of feelings did you draw upon when gathering inspiration for this mix, and what listening environments could you imagine it being best enjoyed in?

A. For this mix, I wanted to channel the energy and sounds that I associate with Melbourne Deepcast rather than drawing on the darker side of my sound palette that has been at the fore of my radio and club sets of late. MDC means so many things to me, but there’s definitely an energetic, grooviness that comes to mind and this is what inspired the mix. Although the mix does showcase parts of me (heavily atmospheric, emotive and a few downtempo tracks for good measure), I’d say this is more of a mix for you. :) I imagine this mix being listened to outside, on a sunny day, but when you might also need a little extra pep in your step. 

Q. Are there any songs in the mix that are especially close to your heart, and what is it about these tracks that resonate with you so much?

A. The first that came to mind is a track by Sean Cusick and Medway (Jesse Skeens) - It is an incredibly beautiful and emotive breakbeat track from 2002 on Saw recordings, there’s just something about how the vocals and the pads wash over you - although its upbeat there's also a sombreness to it and I just think its the whole package. 

Towards the end of the mix there’s also a very very classic ambient trance number, Lazer Worshippers by Damon Wild & Tim Taylor from 1993 - Not the most deeply dug track but it's a classic for a reason.

Q. You have been lovingly broadcasting your weekly radio show Passing Notes on PBS for six years running, which is a serious achievement! Tell us what you did for your sixth anniversary on International Women's Day, and what keeps you inspired to broadcast the show week in week out?

A. It’s been a wild ride that’s for sure! I really appreciate that International Women’s Day marks each yearly anniversary of Passing Notes - it reminds me to stop and reflect on each year as an achievement that I would probably otherwise forget in the chaos of life. This year I enlisted the help of Syrian DJ and Harmony Rec affiliate Zeynep, who provided an excellent, playful and sassy celebratory guest mix. 

As for my inspiration to keep going, I’d say that I draw from the collective power of electronic artists locally as well as internationally. There’s just so much good music to share, and Passing Notes enables me to provide a crucial connection between ‘underground’ electronic music and the wider music community. I'm also inspired by live radio as a format - it provides a sanctuary for me from the highly curated nature of music today and allows me to be more playful in the way that I explore different sounds. To me it is a place free of judgement.

Leuven-born and Brussels-based, Leonardd stumbled into the electronic music scene while working the numbers behind Affair and Horst. His sound, a hypnotic blend of dubby textures and techno whispers, draws from the wells of minimalism, chasing the fine line between introspection and groove. He might be crunching numbers by day, by night he lets them dance.

suck my bass Remix 1

I originally wrote these lyrics to be part of a track that was going to be the follow up to World On Fire. 
Typically I got distracted and moved on to the next big thing without finishing what I started. 
I recently had some vocal burn out after several recording sessions and a live show in one week and had to take a week off singing on doctors orders. 
So it occurred to me to dig this track out and see if i could dress it up in some fine clothes and make it presentable. 
My friends Phuse and the MinorScale Music Collective have helped me in that regard.
This song is about corporate manipulation and the way they will try and dupe us with dopamine TV and social media in order to distract us from the real business of the world - keep em smiling, keep em happy and they won't get in the way of our plans.
So sit back and enjoy Control (Part 1) and keep those eyes wide open people... awareness is everything

(A/R label owner of Disposable Commodities) Portland based Justin Screendoor began DJing in 1996, cutting his teeth on the Midwest rave circuit in Chicago, Minneapolis, Madison - a veteran vinyl practitioner with a DIY sound system sensibility, and the versatility to broadcast for a range of atmospheres, venues, crowds, and moments. 
“My DJing style and sound has been honed over the last 20 years playing weekly residency slots, afterhours, loft parties, warehouses, festival stages, all types of clubs in between and dedicated bedroom sessions.  The focus for my sets is to push the limits of what the dancefloor can take – getting weird and psychedelic– perfecting an adventurous yet streamlined DJing style. I specialize in underground house and techno (Detroit, Chicago, Berlin) with dalliances into minimal, disco, breaks, and ambient.  I am a new music obsessive - avidly tracking new music releases on the daily and finding continued inspiration.  I also started the Disposable Commodities (DIS.CO) record label in 2014 and I try to put out 1 to 2 new releases a year.”
