Just On Ampex

The mastermind behind Basic Channel, Hard Wax and Rhythm & Sound doesn't do mixes. For RA.1000, he made an exception.

Trace Mark Ernestus's path, and you trace the evolution of electronic sound itself. The timeline of contemporary Berlin is unimaginable without him. At first, that meant Hard Wax, the crucial hub that shaped the early era of the city's techno revolution. Carl Craig once said it plainly: "Mark was ground zero."

From there, Ernestus never stopped. There's the birth of dub techno and the near-flawless catalogue that followed through Basic Channel and Rhythm & Sound. There's his immersion in Senegalese mbalax with Ndagga Rhythm Force. Lately, that means Open Ground the Wuppertal bunker that's letting people hear music as never before.

As part three of RA.1000, Ernestus has kindly supplied his first studio DJ mix. As you might expect, it's technically immaculate, but more than that, it feels like a substantial and generous conduit to one of the world's most vital genres.

Amapiano remains underexplored in music media. Publications like our own are still learning to keep pace with the South African sound's global pull, animating millions across the globe. 

You'll hear the range and richness of the genre across the near two-hour mix, from the gothic, percussive stomp of Caltetonic's "Bambela"  to the devotional glow of GemValleyMusiq's "Something Spiritual."

Through all of this, Ernestus has remained understated. He lets the music speak for him, with a quiet honesty that lies in decades of opening doors—creating the conditions for new sounds and scenes to flourish and carry the culture forward.

"Producer duo Greg Wheeler and Dean Slydell spent a lot of time on the A3 road back in the nineties, which runs from London to Portsmouth. The trax for Molar's third strike date from the same period. House gourmets know their sought after releases from the mid-nineties on UK’s Ferox Records. Molar is very happy to present four diverse tracks that were produced between 1995 and 1998 that have now been carefully remastered for the „A3 EP“. From the rather cheerful house groover „Changing Places (Edit)" and the deep head nodder "Telling Lies" on the A-side to the technoid, slightly reminiscent of Italian Onirico "First Contact" and the freshening breaky "OpenGL" on the B-side - there is something for everyone on MOL03 again!"
