Here it is! The third edition of the Blank Wave guest mix series. We warmly welcome Que Sakamoto who has become Japan’s latest export to the world. 

From his deep roots in the Tokyo underground, he finds himself outside Japan most of the year on his relentless worldwide club tours which recently brought him closer to the Blank Wave base with appearances at Panorama Bar in Berlin and Amp in Frankfurt. He'll be back in Europe in summer 2023, so don't miss out on this eclectic talent!

Blank Wave Guest Mix 003: Que Sakamoto

💓 🌞 💓 Hello my dear friends 🌞 💓 🌞 💓

The Sunset Lovers continues to share great music and host amazing artists worldwide, so I'm happy to have this guy on the board since I am a big fan of his radio show and an admirer of his unmistakable musical taste.

Hailing from the North-East of the UK, Andy Bainbridge is a man with his fingers in many pies. DJ, producer, party person, and record label busybody. Co-pilot of Not An Animal Records with Chris Stoker, Machete Savane with Saul Richards, Latrec with Alistair Colling., A.M Edits, Bad Passion, and host on @https://soundcloud.com/1btn.


Andy’s been DJing for over 25 years and was part of the Bad Passion crew who ran their infamous parties in East London. Now he DJs throughout Europe and is a mainstay at festivals such as Houghton and Love International. His music production includes making tracks as part of Machete Savane, Latrec & A.M Edits, with releases on labels such as Felix Dickinson's Cynic, Futureboogie & Is It Balearic. 

For his debut solo release on Not An Animal, label co-pilot Andy Bainbridge serves up a raw, late-night house dub, accompanied by sizzling remixes from Donald’s House & Komodo for good measure. You can check it on the link below:

Andy has a fine ear for a nugget and is never one to be pinned down to one single sound, genre, or style.
You can hear him pull out some obscure soft rock, balearica, also some disco or good old-fashioned house, no rules but this time he's opted for a bit sun down vibes, and that's absolutely fitting the show. Here is the full track listing and I hope you enjoy the mix:

1.Polygona - Dreaming Trees
2.Morgan Geist - Fuzzy Detail
3.Gemini - Pelargonium
4.Han - Euxin
5.Dawd - Take Four
6.Groove Armada - Tweak To Me (Gaudi Remix)
7.Problem Kids-Miles Away (Two Bit Whore Mix)
8.Seafoam - Let It Flow
9.Klauss & Craig - Repeat After Me (DJ Deep & Traumer Free Your Soul Mix)
10.D5 - Sequensa
11.Clive From Accounts - Yukon
12.Analogue Audio Association - Kreisbesschleunigung
13.The Serpent - Rain 

Big love to all and huge thanks to Andy Bainbridge for his contribution💛❤️

Not An Animal Records is made up of Andy Bainbridge and Chris Stoker and has always sat well on the left. The slick London imprint has been dancing around the club scene playing at the cooler end of the festival circuit for a decade with their wonky underground disco selections born out of their party, Bad Passion. This edge of the arc attitude is mirrored in their label output with a run of releases from the upper echelons of the scene from Man Power, Ian Blevins, James Hadfield, Que Sakamoto, Komodo, and Ponty Mython. On its next gift to the underground club world label co-head Andy Bainbridge steps in with his debut solo on his home label serving up much late nite goodness with a couple of remixes that will blow your mind.  The original cut ‘Up Too Much’ is an evocative classic house cut with lashings of acid, while the Donalds House Remix moves further to the left amping up the acid waves and the trance. Komodo’s Remix closes out in true Chicago style for the win.

PREMIERE: Andy Bainbridge - Up Too Much (Komodo Remix)

The weekends were getting longer, it were as if they party had gone on for far too long. It had never meant to be like this, the lack of sleep was becoming stark.

Back at the beginning people had used to as if you were 'up to much?' Now it was a case of being up too much.

There was only so long that the madness could continue - only so long before the cracks began to show. Was it all a little bit far fetched for what it was worth?

You bet...

Andy Bainbridge is set to release a new EP on Not An Animal - a pumping original paired with two futuristic club expansions which take the record further beyond.

For their 21st release, Not An Animal Records welcomes the Northeast-of-England's Tom Rankin, aka Frequencies Of Love to the fold for his first-ever release. A half-step away from their usual low-slung sound, the EP is a bright and sepia-tinted affair bringing prime-time energy to the label. It is rooted squarely on the dancefloor and steeped with glimmering synthesizers and lashings of keys. Despite this stylistic departure, the ever-present driving grooves make it feel right at home.

The EP begins with ‘Tucan’, delicately shifting and changing synthesizer arps flow throughout, weaving a delightful tapestry of past and present. The record glides smoothly into round two with ‘Bpsyde’ pulling no punches; it has a distinct atmosphere of the old-school about it. A one-two of percussive breaks on the one hand and progressive bass on the other with LFO Arps, keys and nineties vocal chops completing the combo.

‘Pegasus’ is a shimmering whirlpool off the Adriatic coast. An antiphonal of choral chanting and female spoken word endlessly circle the groove, occasionally combining in a viscous duetto of wacky, Italo-flavoured deliciousness. For the remix, groove deconstruction connoisseur Fantastic Man gives ‘Pegasus’ the Midas treatment. Riding a throbbing and reprogrammed bassline, key elements from the original mix cameo throughout the track, rounded off by piano chord progressions to complete the pensive sound that constitutes the glue throughout the EP.

PREMIERE: Frequencies of Love - Pegasus
