PREMIERE: Jose Wated – Heat In The Room [ Savia Park ]

Release Title:  Album: Can I Change My Epiphany? – track - Heat In The Room
Artist: Jose Wated
Label: Savia Park
Catalogue No.: SPLP002
Release-Date: 27th Sept

Buy Link: https://lnk.to/splp002

Promotext:
Jose Wated is a sect-of-one DJ/Producer. It's not easy to describe him, counter-current but grunchy, anti-mainstream in his nature but a Cinema lover, anti-fascist but also against modern morals, his philosophy borders with madness, and his way of being is almost too blunt for our times. He's authentic and loves to be politically incorrect.

His obsessions are counter-cultural, anti-moral and anarchic. As an anti-chauvinist he admires nuclear energy and he's an economist who hates bit-coin. Wated is always apt to deliver hard variances in his set and hardcore loops to find his original sound, as he can deliver an opinion on almost anything. His production is a gem that cost him more than 15 years of dedication and creation to find. He can mix the most strange and trivial dialogue with the most sublime loops. Antagonistic in his nature, he's a good and sincere appreciator of music.

His gusto is unyielding, hermetic, and anti-massive and led by pop culture: Nirvana, John Talabot, and No Regular Play, but also Daniel Day-Lewis, Paul Thomas Anderson, and Churchill are among his influences and most admired characters. He believes that each track could be either a movie or a Saturday Night Live sketch, merging comedy and artistic brilliance. 'Each track must be as visual as hell'.

About his Savia Park contributions, he states: 'The tracks are deadly weapons, the ones I like the most, my best tracks are released in Savia Park. Music that I didn't do to please anyone, authentic and politically incorrect. I give that exclusivity only to Savia: my works of art'.

In 'Can I Change My Epiphany?', Jose Wated delights us with his megalomania which can participate in any genre, reminding us of his genius's dynamic and protean nature. And as Wated can master any genre, he takes the mix to a sublime height. With a vast understanding of electronica, house, deep and rock, he brings the audience to a crescendo of almost overly technical brilliance and always full of vibe and groove. Any DJ or good listener can find a track that soothes his needs in this Savia Park collection, where mastery and variety come from the same hand of the unforgettable and unreplaceable Jose Wated.

Fabian Krooss presents Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 292

🎵 Farn [ at ] gART.n - Crépite. Showcase [ Live-Special ] 🎵

Venue: gART.n / Berlin, Germany 

+++ Interview +++

✔️What are your musical influences? What is your musical background?

I grew up in Paris suburb and it had an impact on my early influences, as I grew up listening mostly to reggae and to french hip hop. These were all my first concerts and ‘in-repeat’ albums, with artists like Lunatic, Salif, Steel pulse or Groundation.
My first closer connection to club music was then with the electronica and minimal house scene in Paris with artists like RPR Soundsystem, Cabanne, Bonobo or Traumprinz . Only later around 2015 I discovered the slower and deeper Berlin sound with firstly artists like Mira, Chris, and then Wide awake or Arutani.
Those are few of my influences throughout the years and artists that have inspired me and had a big impact on the music I am doing now. 

✔️ What makes good “afterhour”?

After hours can have a very unique energy, some sort of magic in the air, a shared energy of kindness and sensitivity. 
At this time, I feel that music becomes an even more important element of the party. People are more open to feel, and to connect deeper with the music.   
It can also be an invitation for the DJ to play a more mental and elegant selection, music with more soul and surprises. 

✔️ Do you have any thoughts you would like to share about your set?

This is a set I played at a label showcase with Crépite., a beautiful summer afternoon at a great outdoor location in East Berlin, the gART.n. 
When I play in a Crépite. showcase, I tend to select music that also represents well the sound from the label as I feel it is important that our signature sound is represented in those events, and that we are the first ambassador. 
This set represents well the brighter side of the Crépite. sound somewhere between elegance, minimalism, deepness and obviously crackling textures :) 
A lot of my favorite tracks of the last few months. 
The set also contains loads of my own field recording samples, which is the direction my DJ sets are taking, an organic hybrid direction with field recordings from nature.

Thx so much for this recording.

🎶 diladï presents Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 293 🎶

We have been following Valentina aka diladï and VALE for several years now. Her style and performance have convinced us since the first meeting. Not only does she know how to create a wonderfully dense sound experience on the floor, but she also trumps with her performance behind the decks. It's fun to watch her play. You can tell that she loves to mix and that she literally merges with the audience and the music. That's why we are so excited to finally welcome her to our series. 

She has unpacked her alter ego diladï. Her slower side is tailor-made for our series and heralds a wonderful sound experience right from the start. Melodic, dreamy and with lots of hypnotic synths, she takes the listener by the hand and transports him directly into another world. Great tracks are waiting for us that flow into each other like pearls on a string. From time to time she presses the accelerator a little harder. But the sensual Valentina appears again and again. Wow! The seconds and minutes fly by. To realize again and again that music is simply the most beautiful thing in the world. It evokes feelings and invites you to dream. 

A thousand thanks dear Vale for this wonderful mix 🌜 🎶
Pure Afterhour Sound.

As usual, here is our interview:

+++ INTERVIEW +++

✔️ What is your musical background?
 
Early on as a kid I started learning to play the piano, the guitar and also to sing. This continued into my teenage years - later then I also sang in choirs and had individual concerts with bands. As a teenager, my interest switched from mainly indie and alternative music to electronic music; Berlin was definitely very influential and still is today.

✔️ In your opinion, what makes a good afterhour?

When you just don't want to go to sleep and completely lose your sense of time and space.

✔️ What thoughts would you like to share with us about your mix?

This set it less bouncy than usual, I would say, and definitely slower, with a range from 105-108 bpm. With the music I chose this time, I'm exposing a more dreamy and melancholic side of mine. Nevertheless not wanting to lose the drive..

Imagine you're at a great techno party and have just heard the last track when the DJ switches on the lights and a murmur spreads through the crowd: It's time for the afterhour!

Welcome to a world where the sun is not the enemy, but a silent witness to sleepless nights and unlimited dance floor adventures

The afterhour is more than just an extension of the night - it is a universe of its own full of quirky, heartfelt and often hilarious moments. It is the place where the music lives on, time stands still and the party community forges its strongest bonds - even if it is sometimes only perceived with half an open eye and a wry smile. 

Over 10 years we host our famous podcast series. Which started as an small idea of some Afterhour nerds developed over the years to something special for us ♥️

In the beginning, we focused on finding and supporting (un)known artists through blog posts, reposts and podcast contributions. Gradually, we expanded our sections to include live recordings and premieres. In-house releases and events were not long in coming. 

Join us and dive into the world of Afterhour Sounds. https://t.me/afterhour_sounds  🌈 🎵 🪩
