Due to an artist cancellation, Italian-Ivorian producer and DJ and Nervous Horizon associate Ehua was added at the very last minute to the Unsound 2022 lineup – but she did not disappoint! Ehua played in the early hours of the morning at an Unsound club night, and now you can relive her set, an emotionally-charged dark slow-fast jam with blissful melodic bursts.

In 2020, Mell G dropped out of law studies to pursue music full-time and hasn't looked back since. For good reason too—she's far too busy for any potential regret. Over the past three years, the Hamburg-based artist launched JUICY GANG RECORDS, switched up her DJing style from ghettotech to electro, began touring and started producing. Her year-and-a-half old label is now a go-to source for brazen, bouncy club bangers and her refocused, electro-heavy sound has led to bookings alongside DJ Stingray, Pearson Sound and other heavy-hitters.

The rising star is certainly having a moment, yet it hasn't been all smooth sailing. These sudden career ascents can be tricky to navigate emotionally and her upcoming debut album ISSUES expresses some of the mental health struggles she's faced along the way.

Her RA Podcast is similarly personal. Moving from retro synthwave to acid-laced techno to UK bass before ending on funky electro, it embodies the core sounds that are near and dear to her. Loaded with lots of gritty low-end frequencies, it's a thrilling ride across contemporary club music that cements her status as an in-demand DJ.

RA.889 DJ MELL G

Name:  Simone
Alias: Smokey / Smoke Dog (@smokey_cph)
Pronouns: She/her
Location: Copenhagen, Denmark

Influences: Musically I’d have to say the UK, but I’m not too excited about borders(!) boxes, categories or purist ideas when it comes to music. There are a ton of people that I am inspired by both personally and musically; my girls and my crew: Mama Snake and Solid Blake, and ofc all the bass babes MSJY, re:ni, Darwin, Yeahlena, CCL, Mia Koden, DJ Voices, Mad Miran, Ciel, Niks, Bitter Babe, Azu Tiwaline, mi-el, Roza Terenzi. And my local Copenhagen icons; N.E.GIRL, Gavnlig, Daniel Savi, Lille Høg, Heste Jente, Lyra Valenza, Clara Lucifer, Mbizo, Deb Foam, Cecilie Nørgaard, Nina Marie Lange, 2000F, Purple Rave Club, Cirkeline, Téa, Fruit DJ + Drift Radio and the crew and many more! 

Affiliations/Residencies/Projects: Earlier this year I started in the position as Head of Music at Strøm Festival, which is one of Copenhagen’s finest institutions for electronic music. It’s such a privilege to be doing this, it’s wild! Before that I spent one and a half years mentoring and tutoring at Future Female Sounds DJ academy. It’s an organization that works towards inclusion for femmes, trans and non-binary people in the field of DJ’ing. So many good femme and queer DJ’s in Copenhagen, oopft. 

Favorite Quote: The more I see, the less I know for sure. (I think it was John Lennon who said it? So true though?!) 

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:. Acknowledge your privilege, share your knowledge, open doors for those who need it. Reach out and don’t be afraid to ask for help or advice. Be kind and be brave (is this perhaps a Cinderella quote??) 
Be in it for the music, the art and the creativity of it. Keep digging and exploring. Anyone can learn how to use cdjs, but the real deal is digging. Digging and keeping your mind open to new influences, new people and new genres.

There are two really nice initiatives here in Copenhagen that I think could inspire other parts of the world in terms of creating safer conditions for vulnerable people in the streets.
❁ Fixelancen: a van for drug users to safely do their drugs accompanied by professional staff and nurses. This way right about zero people die from overdoses and also it helps protect women and femmes in particular. (https://trv.dk/support.html)
❁ The Red Van which is also a mobile harm reduction organization, it works the same way, but for street-based sex workers. (http://fixerum.dk/)

Back in the day, drums were used as signals for festivities and war because their sounds travelled the furthest. Azu Tiwaline has long understood that. A master in the dark arts of percussion, she makes deep and profound percussive music that seems to communicate forgotten rituals from centuries past. Her sound is dense, as if pulled from the depths of the Sahara desert in Tunisia, yet still feels spacious thanks to polyrhythmic contortions and sparse, elegant melodies.

Her productions largely fall into the confines of percussive techno, but unlike the genre's springier variants, her dubby textures and psychedelic rhythms command seriousness and move with immensity. Her Livity Sound debut, the Magnetic Service EP from 2020, connected Amazigh music with dub and techno and is a masterclass in restraint and hypnosis. Her latest release, The Fifth Dream, continues to showcase her skills in balancing light and dark tones using field recordings from her home in Tunisia's El Djerid desert, minimal ambient techno and haunting notes.

Mirroring her discography, this RA Podcast features plenty of twisted rhythms, trippy techno and straightforward club cuts. Created for movement rather than hypnosis, these selections show off a different side of her drum palette—perky breaks and syncopated kicks—wrapped in her usual weighty atmospheres.

For the eighteenth mix of the podcast series , we have :- Spacejams (Yohann Jamsandekar) from the island city of Bombay. His wide-ranging selections and mercurial mixing style induce raucous, high-energy sets that detonate the dance floor.

To those familiar with his jacked-up taste in music, this comes as little surprise. He can make you break dance, brain dance or just end up giving you a good old fashioned body massage!

I've taken such a long break from music I don't know what to write here. My name's not about my Elektron Octatrack... it's more like an octopus reference. And maths. I suck at maths, but I rather like it and wish I was better. A bit like my  music...
