As (Part 1 - Perspicacity)

here's an old ambient techno mix of mine, transferred from cassette tape. club du champ was a weekly electronica night at the blue box bar in vienna, hosted by peter rehberg of mego fame. it was an important part of the booming electronic scene in the 90s, providing a space where djs were allowed total freedom. at club du champ you could hear electro, dark ambient, noise, detroit techno, krautrock, industrial, dope beats, leftfield house and all kinds of electronic weirdness. open-mindedness was appreciated.
unfortunately i cannot provide a tracklist but among the artists you hear in the mix are LEO ANIBALDI, HAFLER TRIO, SPK, SEEFEEL...

This is a live recording, captured at Ego club in Düsseldorf, June 5 1999.  The music has been created with a self written step sequencer, the PX-18, controlling  a basic sample player and effects engine, all done in MaxMSP, running on a Powerbook G3. The step sequencer had some unique features, e.g. the ability to switch patterns independently in each track, which later became an important part of a certain music software.

I found the recording on a backup disk today. It has not been edited or mastered. During the first 20 minutes of the set, and before the 'encore' the Monolake CD 'Gobi' is playing in the background.

We had a blast hosting this super dynamic duo called @‌Leonardodascabrio at our latest The Space In Between show.

In their two hours appearance, Luis & Lenny combined House, UKGarage, Disco and Funk and in a simple and easy way, playing b2b over the whole set and pushing each other to the next level and transition. It was pure fun watching them doing their thing.

Make sure to check out their releases and upcoming productions as well as to watch and listen back.

Live Recording from the Windwiesentanz Festival 2024
Playtime Saturday 3-5pm

I couldn't have imagined a better first time at a festival. You left me speechless. Many thanks to everyone who danced despite the rain. And of course many thanks to Decorator 43 and the collective Waldblöße for making this incredible experience possible for me. It was a very special gig from the very first beat. How fitting that just before the first transition, a grasshopper jumped onto the mixing desk and I had to reach around him to grab the buttons. Thanks to the family atmosphere of Windwiesentanz, I felt a special connection to every dancer. I hope to see you all again next year!

Exclusive Mixtape 032 [August 2024] (Afro House & Melodic Techno Live DJ Set Mix)

"Wondering over here if living on other planets would also implement the enjoyment of strolling through a jazz bar. would we  gather there, look back in nostalgic awe and sorrow of what beauty we left back on earth, bringing forward sweet memories with some spacey horn sounds and gloomy piano sessions? future moments will tell. until then please feel right at home in the interplanetary jazz lounge where time and money are just human concepts and inconsistencies.
 
I guess deeply rooted this mix was inspired by my father's taste in music back when I was still in the crib. i remember hearing spacey and loungy jazz tunes right from the getgo. those kind of sounds will stay with me for ever and constantly close circles of some sort."

My definition of the Dream Warriors tune "My Definition Of A Boombastic Jazz Style"...

Dream Warriors - My Definition Of A Boombastic Jazz Style (Ishfaq Remix)

Tracklist:
1.	Hours Go By
2.	Hours Go By (Jay Em Remix)
3.	Hours Go By (Chief Remix)

Two worlds collide as London’s D-Malice and Johannesburg’s Kid Fonque team up as rkls and the duo makes a grand entrance with ‘Hours Go By’, their debut single on R2.

Warm and earthy yet clever and fresh, the rkls sound gives a nod to a shared obsession with golden era hip-hop, 90s R’n B and soul, however, the pair distinguish themselves by lifting the curtain on interstellar new voices like Sio - whose captivating vocals shimmer on this tightly arranged delight. 

Two remixes take the track in very diverse directions - accomplished Swiss beat master Chief stirs in some dreamy Jazz while rapidly rising South African duo Jay Em weave in a 4/4 groove and filtered chords to make it floor-ready.

Format: Digital

LEFTO: Worldwide FM / Studio Brussels

James Rudie : Good Fry Up
“I can’t tell if James was influenced by the Dilla or Sa-Ra Creative Partners sound of the late 90s or early 2000s but there are similar elements in that tune; the rhodes, the slightly off beat or not quantized drums and the allround crispy sound… James’ tune is maybe what these guys would be making these days if they were up to making house music dancefloor killers…” LEFTO

IG CULTURE : CoOp Presents / Selectors Assemble / Worldwide FM / Rinse FM

[1st verse]
Rise and shine sleepy head
A scalp tied to the top of your teepee, your chief is dead
Good grief, he won't cease, guillotine the head
Ya'll want peace?
See pieces spread till the last Mohican stops breathing
"A heathen", the deacon said
Till they found the deacon indecent
Squeezing up on a leg that wasn't far from recently teething
I prayed to God, I wished I was the Anti-Christ
Up the ante, double the price
Kill your soul, not just your life
Cornbread fed thick bitch
Devil in a blue dress knew just how to get it
Let the whole tribe hit it, became another statistic
Her father just went ballistic
While scalping niggas he whispered... 

[2nd verse]
The chickens come to roost
The wiccan slit the dead chicken's head that's gripped up on a noose
And you bet on it's twitching legs, predictions turning to truth
But there's no fetching a Kreskin for the vision concerning you
Some folks call it a sling blade
I call it a razor-sharp thin aid when the god is enraged
Deadly like all seven sins in a steel cage
No severance for severed limbs, get the message, check it again
And you'll see that in retrospect that the wiccan was at your neck
And he bears the wickedest grin as the sickle hack at your flesh
Some folks call it a sickle, he rather call the best
Method and metaphor of the wretched meeting their death

[3rd verse]
Crack of dawn
Rebirth, wrath of Spawn
Murk the nigga that drove the hearse and dash to Saskatchewan
Capcom blast to the dad that killed them off like mastodons
Pick the wiccan's brain, ask the brass knuckles it's plastered on
Fuck even the darkest of the darkest nights
Its never as gruesome as the spark of light
That shines bright from the heights of the Cypress Hills
Stained red, lingering dread and the slightest of chills
Sinister rays administered to the sinner that still craves
The sunrise of the last days
So wake your ass up, start the stretching and yawning 
If you have bad luck then you probably stuck with a good...
