Sonz Of A Cassette Tape Era

Chuff Nuggets

Well it's not all from London I know, but like many a scene, London has often been a processing point for what's being generated elsewhere. In this case, very much courtesy of Frankfurt, Detroit, Rotterdam, New York and of course the UK itself. This is a fairly close recreation of the regular sets I played at VFM, Dead By Dawn, Eurobeat 2000, Institute Of Goa, Helter Skelter and various squat parties (Spiral Tribe, Bedlam) in and around London. Hard banging techno leading up to some of the decent first instances of gabba.  It's at a point where things were quickly splintering off from the highly successful UK Rave Hardcore sound of 92 and reconnecting with a harder updated version of what had previously been coming out of Detroit, Brooklyn, Belgium and Holland around 89/90/91. Looking back, though it seemed such a very separate sound from breakbeat hardcore, with the distance of time they were both very much shades of the same rave. Ah the memories….

DSS 094 comes from the hands and mind of Vardae, a French artist with the ambition of breaking away from the genre barrier, to explore new sounds territory around the love of psychedelic music.

About his approach he said: "Inspired by a ritualistic journey, this session goes from a breathe meditation to an ecstatic state of movement."

FAUZIA (@djfauzia) is an artist who is always evolving. The UK DJ, producer and live act first broke through as a DJ who played fast music be it techno, electro, IDM or bass-heavy breaks. Her famous NTS show has always shown a different side, where anything from soul to jazz can be called upon to tell a story. As a producer since 2020, she has tended to mine a more emotive side with releases that explore dub, ambient and jungle. She has also done pop collabs with Kelela and sings ever more on her own material. Basically, she is anything but easy to categorise, and instead works in many different worlds with equal style and skill.

For this week's mix, FAUZIA focuses on the dance floor with a thrilling 90-minute selection. The scene is first set with some escapist ambience, deep and beatless jungle and spine-tingling vocals but then some serious breakbeats arrive. They come thick and fast and take on many forms from heavy and apocalyptic to blissed out and astra. FAUZIA's own voice occasionally arrives to lend them a personal, intimate quality while the mix grows faster and more futuristic. It's a showcase that's as brilliant in taste as it is in technique.

ELECTRONIC EXPLORATIONS X BANGFACE SPECIAL 2019 

The DJ Producer - Live @ BANGFACE X MASH 2018 - 514 - Electronic Explorations

Our new guest in the series is Brooklyn-born, Berlin-based DJ and producer Dustmite, chief exec at Supervoid Records. Schooled to the sound of NYC warehouse parties and midwest raves, Dustmite’s been pushing a sound both intricately detailed and thoroughly magnetic. Turning up with a kinetic two-hour voyage scanning out the spaces betwixt unflagging 4x4 computation, misty post-industrial atmospheres and bassy, tempo-juggling aerobatics, the American operator immerses us in a zero-G headspace where lithe, rolling techno grooves meet utterly intriguing textural synthsmithery.
