Short hiatus, long hiatus or just a good old hibernation 🛌🥱... Call it what you want to call it but we are back at it and in a variety of ways. Tonny Trauma a.k.a. Tommen selected some of his nastiest records 💥 for this first "after hibernation" PMX.  But there's more...

Thieske AKA 42nd Avenue 🛣 made this mix shine 🌅 equally hard as his bleached dome👨🏼. The man who has its roots in the 43rd regional code of the Netherlands now resides in Amsterdam. This mix was recorded in one of the city's newest venues “Kraft und Licht” and is a live recording of one the sets he played there. Sit tight, grab a bottle of bleach 👨🏼‍🔬 and dye your hair whilst enjoying this bomb🧨of mix!

Jane Fitz and XDB have known each other for around ten years and have supported each other since first hearing each other's sets at Freerotation every year. For Jane's last residency show of 2018 at the Pickle Factory in London, she played back to back with Kosta all night. Here is the first three hours.

Beta Librae is the brightest star in the Libra constellation, but also one of the brightest stars in techno. Bailey Hoffman hails from New York City and arrived in 2015 pretty much with a fully formed and decidedly singular sound. Releasing albums and EPs on labels like Incienso and Allergy Season, she draws on ambient, downtempo, new age and house music to stir up weird atmospheres and slow motion grooves. Lots goes on between her lazy kicks, and it all serves to sink you into a cavernous and expansive world of beautiful melody and loose percussion.

Over the course of ninety minutes, Hoffman’s wide sphere of influences are all exposed. There’s kaleidoscopic techno that traps you in a hall of mirrors as melodies refracted all around, ramshackle drums that are on the verge of collapse and murky house music that’s gritty and grimy. The transitions between these worlds are subtle, and for every passage of dark and dirty texture there are moments of light emitting beauty that keeps the whole thing moving.  This is club music from a whole new perspective.

Following his release on Delsin Records, we asked VC-118A to contribute to the Bleep Mix series.  

Samuel van Dijk aka Mohlao aka Multicast Dynamics aka VC-118A delivers a hauntingly good mix. Patient and prepared, slow and steady, this mix draws the listener in with masterful ease. VC-118A ducks and dives into the dark shadows of electro and the murky swamps of breakbeat. Nothing is rushed, the mix maintains an eery groove and a blend of proto-roboto gear and a chilling quiet. The boundaries of electro, ambient and techno are blurred into one monolithic mix.
