VBX #27 - Podcast by Matthias

The latest addition to our semi-regular podcast series is by fresh-faced Utrecht artist Maximoto, also known als producer, DJ, and nightlife promoter https://soundcloud.com/maximotodj. Maximoto can be seen as Rochat’s retro-tinged house project. There’s an EP incoming on our sister sublabel OOSSHA, and Maximoto will make his first appearance this Saturday at the SoHaSo takeover of the 2nd room at Utrecht’s club WAS. 

For this first sign of life, Maximoto crafts an exquisite mix of late 80s inspired house, acid touches, and big melodies. Some heavy hitters (Massimiliano Pagliara! Sterac!) make an appearance, but the overall feel comes closer to NY house icons Dream 2 Science. All in all, an excellent introduction to this new addition to the SoHaSo family, with plenty more to come in the near future!

Maximoto - Wildeburg Festival 2022

First podcast of 2023. In celebration of https://soundcloud.com/gal-tsadok-hai's upcoming EP on SoHaSo he made a stellar mix full of breakbeats, electro, UK bass, acid and some shuffling machine funk. Be prepared for some dynamic twists & turns. Play loud and listen deeply.

There's a story to this month's podcast, mixed by taste-making Utrecht DJ and Rhythmic Culture mainstay https://soundcloud.com/akaaskmelater. It goes something like this: Back in March last year, just as clubs were reopening, Askmelater (aka Toine) was invited to play Utrecht's infamous WAS. club night. But unfortunately, they caught covid and were unable to make the date (most of us can relate). Stuck at home, Toine channelled both their fever dreams and their frustration at missing out on a good gig in an excellent set of moody breaks and trippy electronica. Almost a year after reopening, this mix is a welcome reminder of what a joy it is to be back on the dancefloor. And with Askmelater at the helm, you know you're in for something special.

This one has been quite some time in the making. https://soundcloud.com/lunaludmila has been a friend of the label for years now, contributing tracks to compilations, playing at SoHaSo takeovers, hanging out, and basically representing Something Happening Somewhere in the best possible way. Her dubbed-out style and meticulous mixing shines through on this hour-long mix. It’s a thick weave of grooves, pads, and basslines that seems to move ever forward. To make these classic elements feel both fresh and familiar is quite an achievement. Thanks Ashley for taking us on this journey.

A journey. That’s how best to describe the story of ace DJ and https://soundcloud.com/vaultwax boss https://soundcloud.com/beyun303. Her bio spans four countries in three different continents, and a family history tying her to even more diverse locales. A true globetrotting citizen of the world, she has taken in influences from a large variety of sources to inform her wide-ranging musical taste. It’s hardly a coincidence she has dropped anchor at the port of Rotterdam, a place which is defined by its diversity and by welcoming travelers from all over the world. 

A journey is also the best way to describe her addition to our podcast series. A truly eclectic mix of genres, moods and moments, we’re taking from energetic breaks and techno thumping, with hints of rave-synths, acid-basslines and plenty of percussion sprinkled in for good measure. And then, just as you think you’ve figured out what Beyun’s all about in this set, she mixes things up. We won’t spoil the ending, so you’ll just have to wait and hear what’s in store (or skip through, if you’re a party pooper). 

If you know Beyun, you know she’s bringing the goods. If you don’t, it’s about time you got acquainted with this excellent artist. Don’t miss out!

Aaaah yes, https://soundcloud.com/ultrastation. A rare breed of hybrid live/dj techno animal, always ready to destroy a festival stage, club or warehouse with their furious sets. For this edition of the podcast, these label mainstays have put together a scorching mix of deep rolling grooves and live synths. Having well earned their accolades as individual performers (Nuno dos Santos and Cosmic Force), they perfectly complement each other’s skillset, energy and creativity. After their long-awaited SoHaSo debut last year, they are now busy prepping a new EP whilst burning down festival stages left and right on the weekend. If you like your techno groovy, trippy and loud this one is for you :)

"This mix was recorded on three CDJ’s and a mixer on a cold december night in Utrecht.
I’d love to say that there’s a thought process behind this mix or that I’m taking you on a ✨journey✨, but to be completely honest; I’ve just selected a couple of records I thought would sound nice together and pressed the record button. However, the early part is a bit more dreamy for the occasion."

While prepping for an upcoming "poolside set" I remembered this recording I made during Wilde Weide last year. I was opening the pre-party on Thursday and decided to play some of my favourite sun-drenched balearic music to honour the few rays of sunlight that shone that weekend. Definitely a weekend to remember. Seeing it will be blazing hot the upcoming days I decided to put up an excerpt of this set. Enjoy! <3

In anticipation of our next event at Shelter with Margaret Dygas, we would like to share with you a little nostalgia inducing souvenir from our previous event with Ricardo Villalobos. Our very own Reiss had the challenging task of setting the mood during the opening hours of night that so many were looking forward to. Slowly building up the vibe and tension in the room, while anticipation for the appearance of our guest of honour was gradually progressing towards its apex. Brother in beats Ferro upped the levels during his set and when Ricardo finally appeared in the booth, the energy in the room was electrifying before the man even played his first record. The rest is history.
