"The mix was recorded at my studio, Metal Box, which is situated on a peninsula where the River Lea meets the Thames. I recorded it late at night, looking over the river and the adjacent steel factory. I used two Technics 1210s, my trusty old Vestax PMC-46 mixer and a RE-20 Space Echo pedal.

I only DJ with vinyl, a habit I don’t think I’ll ever break. Some of these records, like the Shake’s Frictionlized and Florence, are 30 years old, so please excuse the scratches.

I didn’t plan this mix, just decided on an opening record and rolled from there, which is how I play out - searching for blends and that magical feeling when two records meet and form something new, channelling the feeling of unity and escape that occurs when you get lost in the music." - Richard Fearless

Bleep Mix #216 - Richard Fearless

Cementing his name as a founding member of Death in Vegas and Black Acid, Richard Fearless came into his own as a solo artist after the launch of his Drone imprint: a space for his own creations, Death In Vegas material, as well as outings from like-minded producers — Container, D'Marc Cantu and Gabe Gurnsey to name a few.

His most recent release, Future Rave Memory, is the newest companion to his Deep Rave Memory LP, both of which were recorded in his Metal Box; a studio space that has a unique location at the meeting point of the River Thames and the River Lea.

It's this geography and architecture that inspired the sounds on both releases. The blend of dark ambient, komische, drone and acid draws not only from his Metal Box destination, but the corporate buildings and metallic structures he passes on the way to the studio. Described by Richard as “an era when humanity is reckoning with its outsized place in the natural world”, the second LP is now available for your listening pleasure digitally, and on vinyl in Mid December.

Like us, we imagine you're stumbling bleary-eyed into Monday, but luckily Richard is here to help us find the light in the darkness. He delivers a mix of droning rhythms and soundscapes that tread the line between ethereal and haunting; between distortion and bliss.

i-DJ: richard fearless

Richard Fearless's fingerprints are permanently engrained on the electronic music scene of the last 25 years. As Black Acid, Dead Elvis, Death In Vegas and under his solo name, Fearless has formed rock bands, written with Liam Gallagher, crossed genres boundaries and been ever present whilst inevitably remaining difficult to categorise.  From headlining festivals to running his Drone label most recently, which has seen some impeccable music from himself and talent he's supporting, Fearless has been, well, Fearless.

As a DJ over the last few decades, we've witnessed Richard carve a niche that operates around new wave, techno, electro and a more industrial, and futuristic-dystopian take on electronic sounds.  He's versatile but retains an edge that's always a little uncomfortable and sinister.  Here we hear him in a slightly more direct mode than we might normally, with a techno mix which aims more squarely at the dancefloor...however, the edge remains!

In this mix we find Fearless delving deep into his troubled subconscious.
