A collection of sets, mostly played on the fly, maybe with a little bit of planning...

Live @

My First Ep - The Reconstruction of Time

A collection of sets I have put a lot of thought into.
From energy, to flow, to emotional pull to key.

These collections are constructed to showcase the full depth of my improving musical understanding as well as the level of skill of the producers, and my appreciation thereof.

Studio Sets

Dirty Dark Disco
Spanking Psychedelic Techno

Hypnosis Sessions

Producing electronic music has been next on my agenda for a LONG time!
I'm proud to finally be at a place where I can start putting something together that is listenable...

Three of us were involved in putting the base of this together.
- Ike, Gav and me.
Each of us added some ear candy after that...
Once that had all happened, I knew what I wanted to add to the composition to pull it all together.

The track encapsulates my love of rolling bass lines and filling created space with off beat hats, kicks and synth.
- It's a foreshadowing of the kinds of sounds and tracks I want to produce.

There is far more where this came from.

I cannot wait to create more!

An amalgamation of the best tracks I had been delivering in the six months leading up to the recording in August 2021.

Opening a Driving Techno set with Psychedelia is an Idea I had been toying with for a while, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. 

Overjoyed that I slipped one of my own productions, "IOSledge" at the end of the set, between, "Provident" and "IX", both of which were produced by my hero, @victorruiz.

Special thanks to @justa_kalbell for gracing my set with her encore at the end of the set.

Yours in Techno, 
Sledge

VS Agent Orange - March XXII

The Sideways Set
- Many years in the making.

"If you play that doofdoof stuff, we will literally turn off the generator"
- You might not believe me, but the first 3 hours were very sideways indeed.

I played for a full 4 hours on the night...but for whatever reason, this is all that was recorded. 

On the bright side, I had the pleasure of meeting an amazing producer, @onory1 who ends off my set beautifully. Big, big things to come from him.

Take a short stroll down the sideways walk. The Wednesday night of AfrikaBurn 2022 at @lukuluku really kicked things off.

Wow, wow, wow!

I have been a part of some amazing crews, building some amazing mutant vehicles, hosting the most incredible gatherings and pushing the most cutting edge sounds, but nothing has been quite like being part of the Space Cowboys.
- @youknowthespacecowboys

I can safely say I have never been connected to such an impressive sound system, but it was the team that put it all together that really outshone that experience.

I have never felt such support from any group I've been part of. Every single member of the team is a master at their craft. Musically, technically, in theory and in practice.

THANK YOU!

Now, onto the music...
As promised, I am slowly but surely moving in a  direction which will result in me being a completely live act, and this was my first real attempt.

If you pay close attention, you can hear me trying my best to drop some MC licks...I promise I'll get better.

My track selection goes across 4 genres, namely;
Deep Tech, Dark Disco, Psychedelic Techno and of course, Driving techno.

I'm pleased to have laid down my own unreleased track, "Click". It actually sounded quite solid on that unreal sound system, which was amazing to hear.
- I have a great producer...@gavin-isherwood

Big ups to the artists and labels featured in this mix. You are all superstars.

Special mention to @synaestheticsxyz. You have won techno.

AfrikaBurn 2022 - Space Cowboys - Saturday Night - 09h30 - 12h30 - LIVE VOCALS

How exciting it was to finally play on THE BOOMBOX after first being introduced to it for the Burning Man online event: Dusty Multiverse!

Huge thanks must go to the PRESS PLAY team for blessing me with the closing set on Friday night and building that amazing mutant!
- @user-461482352

It was really quite a surreal experience having the chance to play all the music I have been waiting to unleash at @afrikaburn for the past two years. 

The entire set is made up of predominantly my classic, driving techno sound, laced with some of my newer psychedelic sounds as well as a sprinkle of heavy metal.

Splicing together my love of techno and rock has been a goal of mine for a long, long time, and I'm really pleased that I managed to slip in a @slipknot track!

Aside from all that, I'm stoked to have ended off the set with one of my own tracks: IOSLEDGE, which will be released on @la-fruta-records later in 2022!

Hop on the BOOMBOX. Let's go for a DRIVE.

Smoking Kills - Radio Free Tankwa - XXIII

Comment for track ID 🎧

🎉 The loop has been closed! 🎉

What a delight to finally debut on the absolute monster of a machine, The BoomiCorn - AfrikaBurn 2023! 🦄

Some of you may know that I was due to play on the Bass Beast at AfrikaBurn in 2022, but was FORCED to go to the hospital after destroying my ankle. (Worst part is the doctor, in essence, told me to walk it off!) 🚑

So yes, I am hella excited to finally get my shot. 🔥
Even though I didn't get a chance to play on The Boomicorn last year, I heard the bass from a country mile away. Seriously, seriously, seriously, it’s like that rig was built for me to play on. 🎶

So, with a year to plot, and to plan, and to scheme, and to practice, I collected a library of top flipping draw speakers and a couple of tricks which helped me deliver the hiding of a lifetime. 💥

The basic premise was to roll in at 122 bpm, get up to 125 bpm rather quickly, and play in key.

Basic stuff. 🔊
But, the focus was then on three aspects.

Purposefully catching loops that were too long or too short.
Keep driving the bass of the outgoing track until the police came to shut me down.
Pitch bending myself into a different reality. 🌌
All of which I executed rather well, and I am over the moon with how it has turned out. 🌕

Before I started playing, my new(ish) good friend Rich came to me and said, “Jeff, we have two hours left on these batteries, can you drain them?” 💪

My response was, “Fuck yes I can drain your batteries” 💥

I drained them in 1 hour and 30 minutes. Powerful stuff if you ask me. ⚡

There is only really one thing I have to say about this one.

That was JOLLY GOOD! 🤘

What a flipping day. What a flipping memory.

I was really pleased to include the first track I produced in this mix. I don't often find a place to slip it on. 

There was a boatload of AMAZING music shared at Afterglow II Re-Entry.
Honestly, I was blown away!
And this was just the sound check...

4 fucking months it took me to play this set. 
2 months of planning before Burn, and I didn't even get to play it.
Thank's generator... 
Then another 2 months to plan a party to finally play the set. 

Special thanks to @halform for hooking me up with his brilliant remix of @ken-zo-officials, "Inner Groove", months before the remix competition held by @techgnosis-records and @benramamusic was even over. 
- And well done on winning!
- Absolute stonker!

How did the set go? 🎧
Different to how I had planned...
It was a good flipping spank nonetheless. 
Crack on. 👊

The Station On Bree - The Techno Tube - 1st Thursday - Feb XXIV

Wowawiwa!
Sean?
Well fucking done dude...

That's how you throw a 30th.

I could go on and on about how blown away I am by the effort, amazing people and overall good time I had, and how grateful I am to have been a part of this amazing festival. 

So I will just say THANK YOU SEAN, instead.
- Please pat yourself and your team on the back!

The Music:
I honestly don't have the words to express how grateful I am to have found this style of music, and to be literally working with some of my favourite artists and producers, and it looks like the best is yet to come. 

Just keep your ears open. 
I will not stop.

Galaaxy - Friday Night - 2AM🌺

What can I say? 🤔
10 flipping years! 🥳
Well flipping done. 👏
It has been a privilege and an honour to have been even a small part of the story with The Pancake People. 🥞❤️

Not many people know that my first real encounter with The Pancake People happened in 2016, when I met my good friend Naz, along with his crew. At the time, I was the resident sledgehammer man (where my name comes from) and beginner electro-swing DJ, just starting out with my first camp, “The Alenz Coffee Shop.” 🎶🔨

Since then, I've grown a deep friendship with Naz and his pancake-flipping army. 

They have watched me fall in love, mourn the loss of that love, celebrate the formation of a new one, and now, clench my fists while I learn to love myself. 💔❤️‍🩹💪

The music contained in this mix is a collection from the full 10 years that The Pancake People have been flipping. I suppose it was meant to be, at least that's how it felt when Naz asked me to play the opening party on Tuesday morning at Burn this year. 🎵🔥

Thank you for the opportunity. 🙏
Thank you for your friendship. 🤝
Thank you for believing in me. 💖
Thank you for being a shoulder to cry on, and a place to come home to. 🏠

Your friend forever,
Sledge. 💕

AfrikaBurn 2024 - The Pancake People - X

Comment for track ID.

Most people know my music to be bloodthirsty.
However, slower, swampier emotional music is actually where I am happiest. 
I find ways to express myself at this tempo that I cannot do through words.

You can imagine how happy I was when my new, but dear, friend Sheri asked me specifically to play this kind of music on the Flying Dutchman.

The morning of Wednesday at AfrikaBurn I woke up feeling an electric energy in the air. ⚡
To say I was excited is an understatement.
Before long I was officially welcomed in by Eddy the desert pirate queen 👑. 

The plan was set, dinner was had, friends were made, and off I trod back home to get ready.

If I dare say so myself, my set went off. It came out better than I had planned. This set was by far the one I planned for the most. 
Around 12H of pure planning before I even got to the desert.

I feel an overwhelming amount of privilege having been given the honour of playing on the Dutchman and being given the opportunity to meet and work with their amazing team and a few very very very talented artists 🎨.

To the friends who are becoming my family 🫶 
I salute you. 
See you in Aus 🦘

P.S. This is my unofficial announcement of my Australian tour 🗺️
September - December 2024. Buckle up 🎢.

Sledge at Space Cowboys - Monday 1am - AfrikaBurn 2024

Comment for track ID.

Bloodthirst🩸 
A concept I've been toying with for the past couple of months.
A concept that was only put into words post-AfrikaBurn this year. 
A concept that resonates with me.
A big people's word for enthusiasm!
- My favourite word.

And boy, that was a hell of an enthusiastic show!
I wish more than anything that I could aptly describe or even share what it feels like to be surrounded by so much energy coming from so many people.
To see their souls carrying their bodies. Moving them. Dancing through them.

A lot of effort went into this performance, as I usually do with performances of this size. The primary difference is that I am coming closer and closer to having a fully integrated live element to my set, that produces 50% of the sound or more. 
This time around, I managed to hook up my synthesizer. (Fucking beast)
It was as powerful as I hoped it would be. I could see people reacting to the tiniest changes I made to the really low-end frequencies.

The set is constructed of around 8 movements. If you pay attention you will hear them changing. 
I won't bore you with the particulars, but I think it to be one of the most epic stories I have strung together to date. 

Huge thank you to the @youknowthespacecowboys, without whom I would be years behind where I am today.
Truly the most amazing group of ladies and gentlemen I have ever come across.
Their unwavering belief in me, and their willingness not only to give me these incredible chances but to teach me how it is done with love and care is beyond belief.
I am truly humbled to call myself a Space Cowboy and to call the Space Cowboys my friends. 

Please enjoy.

When I played it live, it was 3h long. Unfortunately, this was not the year for live recording. But, I'm reasonably happy with how the studio version has come out. 
This is the last time I rely on someone else to record my music.

AfrikaBurn 2024 - Space Cowboys - Saturday Night - 10pm - 1am

I look back on this treacherous journey, not with sorrow, but forward with hope.
I have a song to sing. I will never give up.

Prog in a Sock with RJ Banks - Sledge Guest Mix

The set was a culmination of more than three months work, and is actually a product of 4 musical geniuses, and me :)

The mix starts off with a provocative vocal section. 
- Inspired by @eeemus

It then turns into a display of the Dark Disco sound that has taken a large piece of my heart.
The tracks chosen come from a much larger set of music that was shared with me by someone very dear to my heart.
- You know who you are

The third stanza of sound is a collection of my own sound - Driving Techno.
These are the tracks I would have pulled out on The Train in 2020, had AfrikaBurn taken place.

The penultimate chapter of the mix is psychedelically inspired by a new music mentor of mine, Gavin Isherwood, Agent Orange.

The Finale, was the first time I whipped out one of my own productions.
(With help from Ike and Agent O)

I am immensely grateful
I am immensely proud

Enjoy.

The SPIRIT Train - Return To The Source - XXIX

Brooding. Bloodthirsty. Minimal. Techno.

I like thunderous basslines ⚡️
I like provocative vocals 🎙
I like off-beat glitches 💥
The music is where the beat isn’t🎼

Why do I sound different?
My training as a classical pianist and my love of heavy metal.

 My major influences have been Victor Ruiz, Biomass, Techgnosis Records, AfrikaBurn, The SPIRIT Train and The Space Cowboys. 

Sometimes I play electroswing.
