Why Bam Vol 3 - The Chillout Session

The last installment from Why Nam for this season.. this one starts with a bang as there was no time to waste and the beach wanted to DANCE>>> !
We start with some deep and funky lilac flavoured house, sidetracking into some slinky catgrooves before building up to a bass infused vortex of banging techno beats, whilst always keeping it uplifting and melodic- before going all soft and squishy in the end, ending with a few old favourites.. a molten gold island bass finish to bring it all back to where it begins, massive love to everyone who danced on the crystal sands of Why Nam all season and made it so unforgettable..

fka boursin is a DJ and producer out of Bristol, UK. 
Previously known as DJ Boursin, he is recognized for his deep, ambient-infused house music that explores political dimensions of clubs and identity politics.

Welcomed into the Scissor & Thread fold, fka boursin shares two cuts of deep and introspective electronic music. 

The original Listless Intertext is a hazy trip through ambient soundscapes, shuffling rhythms and half-caught conversations, drifting across a 12 minute run time that slowly evolves and shifts with time.  

"Listless Intertext is a track centred around the "failed" employment of cheap vocoder software that attempted to process explicit words and phrases across 11 minutes." says fka boursin. "Instead, the vocoder output made any words indecipherable and I was left with thematic vagueness. The final text of the track is simply a submission to its own limitations with some french thrown in."

When label bosses Frank & Tony step up for their Housebeat Dub, they keep the essential mood but introduce a thick, fat groove that works just as well in conveying the mood. 

"Our remix is a strictly dancefloor approach," says Frank, "an extended psychedelic beat rework perfect for late night, early morning vibes".

Andrea Benini (Mop Mop) joins us with his Orient mixtape and once again takes a wonderful imaginary trip to a place which echoes and results in another deep musical trip. 

Mop Mop is the brainchild of Berlin-based Italian multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer Andrea Benini. He has been active for more than ten years exploring a large variety of musical genres. Anyone familiar will already know that their refined postmodern style allowed the band to reach the international film business as part of Woody Allen‘s “To Rome With Love“ soundtrack.

“There are other places out there“  Sun Ra knew about these places outta space, Mop Mop now takes a journey from a mystical bright shining star called “Adhara“ to mother earth, being aliens from a kind of similar but yet different planet which they had to leave as they have destroyed and abused their ground, now in search of a new land. Looking at our blue planet from a different point of view. 

“Show me this place they call earth and let me land this ship“ says Anthony Joseph in one of the key tracks “Spaceship: Earth“.

Kantocast 008: Mop Mop - "Orient"

It had been a while since I played a set on the beach that feels like home, so I couldn't think of a better place to spend the first day of the 20's than Why Nam. After all the madness of the last year and non stop travels that have taken in all corners of the globe it felt good to be back..  the sun was shining, the parachute was floating in the breeze above the dancefloor like a pyschedelic jellyfish and sparkly dancers were throwing shapes all around..

Herhangi - 3rd Sentence Of The 7th Page Of The Nearest Book

After a short visit in Germany and 2 crazy weekends full of gigs and parties, friends and family I am now back in Portugal and finally found the flow again. 

Yesterday I recorded this set and then went out for a surf in the sun and made some nice diner after, while listening to the recording. 
Not more I could wish for.

As always I hope you like it.

An artist with a difference, Stevie Keys is an accomplished DJ who draws on his classical background to perform live piano over his sets, as well as a renowned producer with a history of releasing house music going back 20 years. You might not realise it but if you’ve been on a dancefloor in recent years you’re likely to be familiar with Stevie’s production as his original tracks have been released on some of the hottest labels around, licensed to over 100 compilations worldwide and supported by the world’s biggest DJ’s, such as Carl Cox, Pete Tong and Armin Van Buuren.

Born in Australia and always obsessed with music, Stevie Keys first trained as a classical pianist, before moving on to study sound engineering and completing a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance. By the age of 18 he had a record deal as a solo artist and had performed all over Australia, supporting artists such as Bjork and The Prodigy on their tours of the Southern Hemisphere.

Moving to London at the age of 19 he went on to record under various artist names including Antartica (for seminal UK dance label React), Altitude (Bonzai Records/ Sony), Sound of Soho (with Eye Industries/ Universal) and Tremor (for the influential Progressive House imprint Platipus).

Some career highlights include cowriting songs with legendary artists such as Nile Rodgers & Bernard Summers, remixing for the likes of Sia, R Kelly and James Holden, hosting a weekly radio show on DI.FM (one of the pioneering internet stations for electronic music) compiling and mixing compilation albums such as The Art of Chill (Sony) and producing several underground club hits that broke into the UK singles chart and were subsequently licensed to major labels such as Sony and Universal.

Now resident in Koh Phangan, Thailand which is famous for the Full Moon Party but is also becoming a popular destination on the international DJ circuit. In 2015 he created the now legendary Why Nam day party, before moving on to found Bambu Huts, which is fast becoming one of the most popular music venues in Thailand. 

Finally settled in this tropical island paradise after years of travelling the world, Stevie Keys is the resident DJ/ musical director of Bambu Huts, where he created The Sunday Session in 2023. This weekly event quickly established itself as the premier party on the island and is famous for having a distinct & sophisticated sound focused on afro, organic & deep house. Here Stevie plays extended sets with live musicians every week alongside illustrious guests such as Chus & La Santa (Redolent/ Stereo Productions), Djuma Soundsystem (Iziki Global), Igor Marijuan (Akasha Ibiza), DJ Ino (Cafe de Anatolia), Rezident (Anjunadeep) and many others.
