Studio dB Berlin is starting a podcast series called “sdbx”
For the first episode, Vincent Vidal, curator of sdbx, recorded an intuitive set under his new alias “protodub”
Interested in dub through his sound system engineer skills, the sound system culture has been a huge influence on him over the last years. Co-founder of studio dB, he’s taking care of sound and artistic direction on every level.
The mix naturally evolves through many genres, such as dub, dubstep, organic textures, finest jungle, and broken beats drawing a satisfying and challenging sonic composition to set the tone for future releases.
All artworks will be created over the flow by one of the other co-founders of dB, Rasmus Bell.
Nothing else but sharing the music and aesthetic that we love!

2302 - Untitled (2302)

For our 30th instalment we have a very special submission via Milano. 

Balleremo & Cura Festival resident, Ortensio brings us an extended mix testing the limits of 'dance music' - a beautifully introspective blend of slow jams, percussive textures, moments of serenity contrasted with moments of total chaos and more dub infused and bass heavy sounds.

Super beautiful, thank you Ortensio <3

For this mix I wanted to try and build a blend some of the outcome of my researches towards the different shades and forms of danceable music I personally enjoy the most, possibly limiting as much as possible the usage of music conceived and created specifically for the contemporary dance floors and sound systems, and trying to dig deeper into different dimensions of regular and non-regular rhythms, music jams and head-moving sonic creations from all over the world, mostly focusing on the mediterranean macro area and more.

My past, when I was living in Berlin and DJing more regularly in clubs, has helped me shape my technical skills. Milano instead has helped me breaking my limits, getting out of my comfort zone and destroying a lot of the patterns that, as a DJ and Music Maker, were locking me down in a box. There’s a lot of oxygen, curiosity and creativity nowadays in my everyday life.

Definitely one of the kinetic events. I prefer small DIY events over infamous and hyper-celebrated social gatherings. The only thing I care the most about lately is the sound system.

Can’t avoid trying to bring some attention to our beloved creature, @balleremo-04-14. Also, there’s a few, but definitely @ormeye and DNN’s LOBO, Dubwise, Buka and Evolvere are some of my favorites. But I’m sure I’m forgetting some.

Definitely @st-ill, @piezopz, @notmass / @cipppo, @biasedraw and @ernestobellicini.

The city where I live, Milano, for the vibe. And lately, our event “Balleremo”. There’s other cities I love way more tho for the sound systems.

running free with Van Dyke Browne @vinylhunter

o:How have you been sleeping lately?
w:Not great, I kept on falling asleep watching twin peaks season 2, not good for sleep!

o:Are you a daydreamer or night swimmer?
w:Daydreamer :)

o:Where do you go to dream?
w:Wherever my heart tells me I should be <3

o:What was the last thing you heard that moved you?
w:HTRK live a Strange Brew, such a beautiful performance <3

o:Have you ever cried on the dance floor?
w:Many times!

o:Where did you record this mix? 
w:I recorded this mix at the location of my party Acid Lake, the sun was setting, a deer was roaming up ahead, and a giant orange moth was flying around me :) 

o:What drew you to the sounds?
w:I have been thinking a lot recently about the perception of time in the context of love and loss. The way that our mind orchestrates a measurement of how long something feels in accordance with its impact on us. 

There is a magic involved in our metaphysical connections with one another, and the ways in which we can connect despite distance and extended time apart, but also how it feels when something bad happens to someone we love, sometimes before any contact with that person if the connection is deep enough. 

I wanted to channel these thoughts and connect with a collection of sounds spanning across many years and locations, tied together by their formation deep within the soul.

o:What's your plan next weekend?
w:The release party for the debut record by Excelsior Ruth @xlsior ;)

Selon David Hume (Traité de la nature humaine, 1740), le principe du goût esthétique est que « la beauté est uniquement déterminée par le plaisir », tandis que la laideur est associée à la douleur. 
Beauté et laideur sont donc moins des qualités inhérentes aux choses que des impressions relatives à un individu donné.

L’œuvre explore cette dualité à travers une narration circulaire : de la laideur de la nostalgie de la simplicité émotionnelle à la beauté de cette nostalgie, puis à l’hématome des émotions. Mêlant esthétique noise et power electronics percutants, entre notes ambiantes et arpèges majeurs.

That’s not you
That’s not you
That’s not you

J’ai peur de ce qu’on va se dire
J’ai peur

En fait, ce qui m’insupporte avec les relations humaines,
C’est que vous vous attendez tous à des paroles,
Alors que moi, je suis dans les actes.

J’ai été violent,
Je t’ai poussé, même avec le bras,
Physiquement.

Je me rappelle de la violence des mots que j’ai dits :
Arrête,
Vraiment, arrête.

Moi, je suis dans les actes.

Arrête,
Vraiment, arrête.

J’ai été violent.
Qu’est-ce que tu veux que je te dise de plus ?

C’est quand même un truc de ouf.

Est-ce que tu m’as rendu mes clés ?
Il faudrait que tu viennes chez moi pour me rendre mes clés.
Et je dois avoir deux ou trois affaires à toi qui traînent aussi.

Hier, il m’a demandé s’il pouvait m’embrasser.
Ok, salut.
J’ai dit oui.

Est-ce que tu veux venir chez moi ?

Je pense que je vais le voir dimanche.

Si tu veux, je suis dispo.

Je sais pas.
Je ne sais pas non plus.

T’avais l’air fatigué.

Peut-être que t’as pas envie de venir chez moi.
Peut-être que j’ai pas envie que tu viennes.

Je crois qu’on s’aimera toujours.

Peut-être que j’ai pas envie d’être toute seule.

C’est lui qui me l’a dit.

C’était comme avant.
J’avais peur, mais pas vraiment, tu sais.
Peur comme quand tu m’as dit que tu m’aimais.

Prends la violence de mon corps,
Regarde-moi.

I’m sad again.
When will this all end?
I’ve seen brighter days,
When will it end?

I am your ideal.
Turns out I’m not even real.

I can’t explain.
My body’s on display.
There are no brighter days.

Voices,
And all you’ve said.

But all your words,
They don’t mean shit.
I’m pretty when I cry.

I give myself,
I give myself to you in offering.

Trade my sanity for poetry.

But I hate the way your skin feels on my body.

My,
My,
Body.

I can mute
This never-ending monologue.

Present and time have been,
But what will be is an abstraction,
And what has been
Is in the fog.

There’s a green vase across the room,
Sometimes empty,
Sometimes full.

Through it,
My reflection is staring back at me.

The only thing I see.

I’m an empty room full of hate.
I’m an empty room full of hate.

I’m an empty room.
