Blackest Ever Black Synth Heroes Mix

Responsible for molding and elevating the prog rock music subgenre known as krautrock, Dieter Moebius was unafraid and head-spinningly experimental in 1970s divided Berlin. His mostly improvised, minimalist sounds spread internationally, as he went on to form the cult bands Cluster and Harmonia and, collaborating with Brian Eno, reinvented the ambient movement. Last week, the Swiss-German artist’s death at 71 was announced by Michael Rother, member of German band Neu!, friend and frequent collaborator on Facebook.

Moebius’ influence on music and the contemporary scene is illustrated in the outpouring of tributes online by musicians, with the likes of Daniel Avery, Optimo and Tim Burgess taking to Twitter to remember the artist. As part of Tim Noakes' monthly Synth Hero series with NTS, he put together a tribute mix in memory of the krautrock pioneer and international influencer, showcasing the most mind-melting tracks of his career. Spanning Moebius's solo and group work, the mix ends with a contemplative piano and synth piece by Joseph C Montanaro, a Chicago based musician who also records under the name of Moebius. Its emotive melody serves as a fitting outro to a composer who changed the course of electronic music forever.

Empress Of Synth Hero Mix

Every month we ask a pioneering musician to mix together an hour of their formative electronic influences for the Synth Hero show on NTS. This month it is the turn of Dan Deacon, a Baltimore-based producer, performer and composer who has released 8 albums of innovative electronica since his 2003 debut, Meetle Mice. As well as co-founding the indie arts collective Wham City, he’s also scored a horror thriller by Francis Ford Coppola and performed at Carnegie Hall with Matmos to celebrate the 100th Birthday of John Cage. His live shows are the stuff of legend, with Deacon performing smack bang in the middle of his audiences with a table full of machines, circuit bent devices and of course, racks of synths. 

Although the last few years have seen Deacon concentrate on classical music, he has just contributed a killer new Brian Eno cover to the amazing EP, Translational Drifts: Moogfest Volume 1. It is the first in a series of free releases that feature contemporary acts reinterpreting seminal electronic music influencers that have shaped the annual Moogfest festival. Check it out here. 

Currently touring American in his "vantastic" school bus (which runs on vegetable oil), this Synth Hero mix showcases everythig from synth country remixes of Missy Elliott to the noise rock of Mindflayer and everything inbetween.

Moiré Synth Hero Mix

Everyone has their favourite David Bowie musical era. For me, it was when he teamed up with Brian Eno in 1977 to create "The Berlin Trilogy” of albums – Low, Heroes, and Lodger – followed by his hyper pop work with Nile Rodgers on Let’s Dance. He was one of my ultimate synth heroes; a star who revelled in creating everything from ambient electronic soundscapes and chart topping synth pop, to IDB and brutal industrial music. I created this mix to celebrate his massive contribution to electronic music, which was broadcasted live on NTS last night as a tribute to the great man. From the hits to some deep cuts you may not have heard before, take some time out and submerge yourself in an hour of the master’s immortal synth oddities.

Wriggly Scott's tribute mix to Giorgio Moroder: http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/16198/1/giorgio-moroder-djs-in-new-york

From Mobb Deep and J Dilla, to El-P, DOOM and DJ Shadow, Giorgio Moroder's soundtracks and pop productions have been spliced, diced, referenced and remixed by the best beatmakers of the last 20 years. To celebrate our Daft Punk vs Giorgio Moroder cover feature, we asked Another Music head honcho Wriggly Scott to dig deep into the crates for a career spanning overview of the Italo rhythm master's discography and some of the classic tracks that sampled him. Covering his Scarface gangsta rap credentials and Teutonic electronic experiments to the Donna Summer pop smashes that inspired two certain robots, this hour long mix will take you deep into the mind of a Moog loving musical visionary. Mr Moroder, the dancefloor is yours... 

The June issue of Dazed & Confused featuring a head to head interview between Daft Punk + Giorgio Moroder is out this Wednesday. http://www.dazeddigital.com/music
