SKATEBOARD P

art:cast °187 | Ballan

When Ballan lands on a label, it’s rarely by accident. The globe-hopping producer has a knack for weaving together the raw energy of Electro, the swing of UK Garage, and the cheeky irreverence of House into tracks that sound as spontaneous as they are deliberate. With releases on Bliss, Sucre Discs, Non Stop Rhythm, Howl and his own imprint Phlex Recs, Ballan has carved out a corner of the underground where grooves hit heavy but always come with a wink.

His latest adventure finds him on Alec Falconer’s ever-mischievous SUNNY label, following Phill Prince’s “Playground Pleasure” with an equally playful yet razor-edged two-tracker: “Different Shapes / Eurocup Mess.” One track born on a beach in Thailand, another out of admiration for Thierry Henry and a love letter to Electro - together they encapsulate Ballan’s refusal to play by any rulebook except his own.

Fresh off a Euro summer and ahead of his contribution to the art:cast series, Ballan sat down with Torture the Artist to talk about the accidents that make tracks special, guilty pleasures that would shock the underground, and why every morning starts with coffee, a computer, and a burst of creativity.

Move That Remix

Timbaland wants his drums back

You're a shooting star, might only catch you once
Might miss you if I'm not fast enough
Only once in a life can't pass this up
This time we're going far, so Ima buckle up
Any issues we gon' have to kick it to the curb
They don't know about us, made for the pressure
Shooting star
Let's go the distance hundred thousands of miles
Shooting star
Now that you're here I hope you stay for a while

You ain't know you had a life to live?
Going place to place and trip to trip
Threw away 100k cause you like to tip
And you made it right back off your brand new hit
Life treats you good 'cause that's how you are
And you made it out the hood 'cause you went so hard
And you showed 'em that you could, said that you would
Now they're all reading taking notes from your book like huh

You're a shooting star, might only catch you once
Might miss you if I'm not fast enough
Only once in a life can't pass this up
This time we're going far, so Ima buckle up
Any issues we gon' have to kick it to the curb
They don't know about us, made for the pressure
Shooting star
Let's go the distance hundred thousands of miles
Shooting star
Now that you're here I hope you stay for a while

Shooting star
Let's go the distance hundred thousands of miles
Shooting star
Now that you're here I hope you stay for a while <3

Torture the Artist - your source for contemporary electronic music

Torture the Artist is a webzine, or a magazine made for the internet, geared towards those with a passion for contemporary electronic music, with subgenres including Techno, Tech House, Deep House and Eletronica, as well as a small amount of Indie and Alternative. Founded in 2014 by Holger Breuer, a German native and lover of the arts, Torture the Artist now consists of five team members from all around the world.

In addition to publishing interviews, music reviews, DJ charts and track premieres, the webzine hosts out a  podcast series called 'art:casts'. This medium gives DJs and producers the artistic freedom to highlight their different musical styles while not being restricted by factors such as setting, and connecting them to a wider audience. 

Being in its ninth year, Torture the Artist has gained a strong and active online support group, including music enthusiasts to label managers and artists themselves, creating a cohesive community with music as their bond.
