DTP#37 - PASTRAM

A new mix to put you in an icy mood suitable for winter. Lovingly put together by PASTRAM from Lausanne. 
Known for his energetic sets full of EBM, early industrial and technoish stompers often with references to wave and post-punk.
In this creeping mix he shows his love for proto EBM full of plaintive vocals and cold synths wrapped in a strong 80s feel. Be prepared.

DTP#37 - PASTRAM

One hour of cinematic darkness called "How Have you been?" by Pastram. This recording is an assemblage of weird industrial cuts and noisy exploration that reflects in a soundtrack of this cathartic period.

Italian dj raised in the outskirts of Geneva, Pastram steps out under the banner of Cruel Machine Booking. 
Distinctly drawn towards dark atmospheres, Pastram strongly focused on raw rhythmics, assuming an intense form of communication where cathartic echoes and cold synths become intricate.

Sissies of Mercy is the back-to-back collaboration between longtime best-friends sam & austen. Born out of their love for dancing together, their sound as a duo balances playful nostalgia and raunchy darkness to command a sweaty dancefloor.  Weaving together diva-fueled house, sparkly 80's pop, nasty acid, and cheeky electro, Sissies' sets create shared moments of freedom and transcendent joy fueled by love and light. 

Between their residency at Gabriela, frequent sets at Brooklyn institutions such as Paragon, House of Yes, Bossa Nova Civic club, and at least one gig basically everywhere else, Sissies are forging a path for TS world (nyc) domination.
