New Wave Podcast 035: DAWL

We recently caught up with Darren for the first ever written interview on New Wave. 

Q)Starting back at your roots, could you tell us a little bit about some of your earliest musical memories? Are you from Essex originally?  

A) Yes I was born in Barking then moved to Basildon in Essex when I was very young, i was an 80s kid and Hip Hop and Electro was the new big thing, I got into breakdancing and graffiti, the Street Sounds Electro series was basically the sound track for those early years. Breakdancing for me was short lived but the music and graffiti stayed with me. I suppose the first real musical experience would be when I started to go to raves my first was a big outdoor rave in Essex called Raindance(Jenkins Lane) back in 1991 I was only 16 at the time so it was quite an eye opener.

Q)Were there any people or parties you were attending in particular that helped you delve into DJing and producing?

A)Not really no, I started collecting records in 1988 and got my first set of decks when I was 14 back in 1989. This was about 2 years before I had even been to a rave or club I was always into the music more than the party scene itself, saying that though I did go to a few raves back then and they were 
amazing but I was not a big raver. I was originally influenced by the Hip Hop DJs as a young teenager, I just thought it was the coolest.

Q)You have self-released a lot of old school/hardcore sets from the 90s. Can you discuss what the sound means to you? Did you release those for purely nostalgic purposes or do you still play those kind of tracks in your sets today?

A) Nostalgia is a small part of it but the main reason is that I still love that music as much as I did back then. Basically I do those mixes for myself to listen to but I like to share them on Soundcloud for anyone that wants to have a listen. I have created two playlists 1988-1991 and 1992-1993 and I will 
keep recording more and adding to the lists. I've been collecting rave music more or less from the start of it and I have a large collection of old school records and I'm still buying to this day filling in the gaps. All the podcasts and radio appearances I have done over the last few years have been all 
new music mixes, a lot of the new stuff I play does sound like its from back in the day there’s quite a few producers out there making some great old school sounding Electro, Techno, breakbeat and Jungle I love it and I am always keeping an eye on the new releases on a daily basis to grab them as they come out, as I noticed a lot of the old school sounding stuff can sell out really quick if you sleep on it you can miss out and end up at the mercy of the scalpers on Discogs.

Q) Could you discuss how you got into production and when did you fully settle into the electro sound as a producer? How do you try be creative and make your music stand out?

A)  I started producing about ten years ago before that I had no real interest in making music really I was happy just Djing, playing and collecting records. I suppose what started it for me was when I started recording my mixes to my computer rather than tape. I started playing about with the editing tools on Goldwave and Audacity which lead to making little re edits just for fun. I later got a Mac which had Garageband built in, I had a play around with that and then I was hooked I then upgraded to Logic Pro things really took off after that. I don’t think that I try to make my music stand out, its more that I try to make the kind of music that I would want to find in a record shop, my music 
is very self indulgent I love mixing Techno and Electro with Breakbeats. I think what I make is a mixture of Techno, Electro, Acid House, Breakbeat, Hardcore with a little bit Hip Hop woven in to it and maybe Jungle at a push, I suppose its basically Freestyle.

Artist: Various Artists
Title: Volume 3
Label: We’re Going Deep
Cat No: WGD003
Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist: 
A1. Moy – Ouroboros
A2. ReKaB - Summer Dream
B1. Garrett David - Crusin Thru
B2. Moody Waters - Hindsight

A new label, run by an old head, Paul Wise aka Placid is the driving force behind ‘We’re Going Deep’. Known to many who inhabit the realms of underground House and Techno, the imprint sprang to life at the tail end of 2020 from his hugely popular Facebook community under the same banner.

Born out of a lifelong affair with the many shades of deep electronic rhythms, coupled with a thirst for collecting records since 1988, Paul’s mission is all about sharing and releasing new music for the dance floor, front room or even just your headphones. Rather than staying hung up on the past, his reputation for digging into the annals Acid, Electro, Techno, Deep House alongside the odd slice of Downtempo precedes him, as he readies the third WGD volume for release.

Bubbling up with another 4 track EP comprised of cuts from equally brilliant artists, the opening shots are fired on Side A with the unmistakeable sounds of Moy “Ouroboros”. A finely crafted slice of robotic acid funk entices you into the wilds and waves of moody 303 action as machines collide with precision accuracy. Bringing you back to a calmer vision and seas of tranquilty, Rekab aka James Baker’s “Summer Dreams” demonstrates just how blissful ambience and slowing the pace in these testing times can soothe the soul. Leading Side B, fans of Chi-town grooves will not be disappointed with Garrett David’s “Cruisin Through”. A Smart Bar resident and Gramaphone Records employee, he’s no stranger to sumptuous jackin’ edged house jams packed full of bouncing beats. Blending an irresistible rump funking groove to synth-led melodics that build and build, the total sum of these parts will not fail to get you out of your seat. Signing off in style, Moody Waters takes us into hypnotic house territory as low slung beatdown vibes meet mysterious atmospheres and vocal fx, emerging from the haze of that 5am smog that all too often glazes your inner mind.

Title: Volume 5
Label: We’re Going Deep
Cat No: WGD005
Format: 12” Vinyl

Tracklist: 
A1. Tim Jackiw – Urban Theory
A2. Böhm - The Search
B1. Biz – Meltdown
B2. Al Bradley - Invisible Beings In Space

Paul Wise aka Placid is the driving force behind ‘We’re Going Deep’ – a thriving online community and record label that’s showing no signs of letting up as we glide towards the end of 2021.

Sticking to the trusted format of 4 tracks of high grade electronic explorations per EP, all sourced from equally excellent artists. WGD 005 fires its way into orbit on Side A with the opening chimes of Australian producer Tim Jackiw’s ‘Urban theory’. A purist slice of machine driven techno-soul that plots a cosmic trajectory through sharp FM bass tones, powerful kick and driving 303 - all drawn together through sparkling rings of chorded melody. As the rattle of metallic snares and searing acid rise, the track unleashes at warp speed: bringing sheer delight. Followed by the expansive talents of 030303 hitman Böhm, ‘The Search’ meanders deeper into interstellar fields with a jam packed full of melancholia, making full use of minimal machine elements for a maximal sound.

Welcoming another original purveyor of electronic music from Australia to Side B, the legendary Biz straddles the line effortlessly between IDM and Electro with the wonderfully uplifting air of ‘Meltdown’. Stacked full of low-end and glistening solar frequencies, his take on the deep space sound will definitely have fans of Automatic Tasty, Moy and Cignol phoning home. Last but not least, Yorkshireman Al Bradley plots a course back towards inner space, serving up a slow acid bubbler that’s text book in terms of restraint and poise – perfect for those orbital moments as you near your final destination.

Derek Carr - No Music No Heart

This mix comes all the way from sunny Gibraltar.

Catania and his crew have been doing amazing work getting an underground party scene up and running over there. Going as far as to rent sound systems from across the border for their events. 

They are die hard vinyl enthusiasts and you can hear that in this mix of Catania's.

Dark, driving and sick from start to finish. Let's be having it!

Holding Hands Mix 25 -  Jamie Catania

Couldn't have imagined someone better to start off the new EstimuloShow Guest Mix series than the mystery man behind the UK's Spillway label, Kellon.

He's had a string of releases that just kept wowing us over the last two years, the first four going under his own Kellon project and the fifth that just came out recently opening up to other producers while keeping the typical Spillway profound techno vibe.
It's the same kind of soulful and personal tone that pervades his guest mix contribution, fusing classics and lesser know gems of (mostly 90s) deep house and detroit techno.

'Hidden In Plain Sight' (+) a dystopian electro track weaving lush warm pads and glassy eyed melodies over bubbling 808 beats with added 303 grittiness resulting in a wonderful timeless Detroit inspired gem.

‘Behind The Smile' (++) Imagine if B12 and Larry Heard met up for a late night jam in the mid 90's! A chi-town bassline combined with icy atmospherics and exquisite drum programming all make for a great track for both club and home-listening alike. 
 
On the flip Dream Sequencer (-) takes us into pure space territory.  A Nu Electronica style techno monster with driving drums and immersive emotional content throughout.
This track is sure to make any discerning dance floor go into overdrive!

To close we have the amazing electronica of 'Great Tartaria' (- -) Mr. Nye pulls out all the stops to deliver a sumptuous story-telling track. A pounding 808 kick and then soul soothing melodies and strings take you to a higher plane.
