The latest instalment of our mix series comes from the DJ, booker and club/record store boss Ouissam (@ouissamhk). After stints in China and Hong Kong running a booking agency, festival (Equation) and labels like Homesick and Fragrant Harbour, in 2016 Ouissam moved to Hanoi, Vietnam, to set up the club Savage (@savagehanoi). Now in its fifth year - and at a new venue in the ex-Embassy of Angola in Hanoi's Tay Ho district - Savage has established itself as one of the region's most progressive clubs in terms of both music programming and the diverse crowd it attracts. Since mid 2020 it has also been home to a record store, Pond Records.

Ouissam's mix for us shows off his appreciation for all things italo, synth, boogie and house, mixing cuts from contemporary labels like Public Possession with classics from UBQ Project and others. The set is a lesson in how to build a joyful energy, speaking to his years of experience as a resident DJ in his own club and on the road in places like Panoramabar (Berlin), Folklor (Lausanne), .TAG (Chengdu) and Honcho Campout (Pennsylvania).

In our Q&A he discusses the contribution of Savage and its queer night Snug to the Hanoi scene over the past 5 years, the challenges of running nights and a record store during the pandemic, and his work as a DJ exploring different sonic territories.

Exclusive Peo Watson & Mainro 'Chardon Mary (Lazaros Remix)'

French label Family NAME is set to release its 22nd release in late September. Therefore NAME festival affiliates Peo Watson & Mainro joined forces to produce 'Chardon Mary', which is probably their most techno-ish approach to music so far. Cologne based DJ and producer Lazaros took over the remix duties. The artist, who has released on Kompakt-run label KX and Sum Over Histories, keeps the vibe from the original take but focuses on a reduced and raw bassline sprinkling spooky sounds into the track's build-up before taking on the original lead-synth-pads to create a mystic-mind-trip that is supported by twirling bleeps. Turning around the phrase 'the calm before the storm' Lazaros tames the track's impetus and returns to calmer sound-sceneries to close the track.

Peo Watson & Mainro's EP 'Chardon Mary' will be released September 25th, 2018 on Family NAME.

Hand in Hand EP

Rampa - For This feat. Chiara Noriko

The amazing Acid Arab invited me to come play at two of their "La Hafla" nights in May 2020; one in Rex Club Paris and one in Gretchen Berlin. Due to obvious reasons both nights were postponed, so we thought it would be nice to make a podcast for you in the meantime. Enjoy 70 minutes of my favourite eastern electronic music and edits of the past years! ID's on request in the comments as usual :)
