Episode 244 / Guest Mix 149: BNinjas

Pastel Pagan threw down for us (and well) on the last Sublime Saturday at Gelato Vero for the season. We're so grateful she was available. I had a rare planned set, which is the first of three parts that I spliced and merged together to complete my last Obsession Session for a while, if ever again. You can check out Obsession Sessions IV under the Obsession Sessions playlist. 60 tracks and 4.5 hours long. Big Disco Energy!

Thank you to everyone who came out to dance, socialize, network, and enjoy the beauty of our San Diego sunset in one of the most iconic coffee shops in San Diego. Last, but not least, thank you to all of our guest deejays who reinforced the vibe with their storytelling and art. Your energy kept us all going.

Bio:

Forlorn Listening within Romantic Soundscapes --

Jxn Cøco brings a forlorn beauty to the dark, often merging powerful basslines with melancholic melodies. There is a romantic sadness attached to his electrifying soundscapes, laced with psychedelic synths driven by grinding drum machines. Resident DJ for Mønster Queen, London's fast-rising and ever inspiring Dark Queer Underground club night, Cøco plays within the otherworldly waves of ritualistic Acid Wave, EBM, Dark Trance and Body Techno.

He has also supported London staples including Torture Garden, Kaos, Wraith, HE.SHE.THEY and Slimelight, and played at legendary venues within the city such as Electrowerkz, Fabric, The Garage, Ministry of Sound and beyond.

Tune in. Drift out.

Tainted Love - 2025 Mix

I grew up with Soft Cell. 
I first caught up with Marc and Dave's incredible music at the end of the duos initial career around 1984, when I was at the tender age of 12. 
I then worked backwards over their catalogue over the next few years. 
The band cemented their place in my consciousness along with the other synth acts at the time.
But there was always something that separated Soft Cell's music even from the likes of the mighty Depeche Mode.
Thinking back on it now I think it's actually two things:
Marc's kitchen sing drama lyrics which were very different to the other acts at the time, and of course, Dave Balls often quite unusual arrangements. 
Fast forward back to now and the sad, sad news of Dave's passing at a far too young age. 
We at MinorScales wanted to mark his passing in some small measure.
So here is our version of my favourite Soft Cell song. 
Sit back and enjoy our interpretation of Say Hello Wave Goodbye.

The Busketeers are a band like no other, known for their raw energy and diverse shows. Comprised of four talented musicians who are all singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, they captivate audiences with their ability to harmonise and seamlessly swap instruments while delivering a unique sound that blends genres from all over the musical spectrum. Their passion for music is evident in every note they play.

The Busketeers originally formed on the streets of Plymouth, Devon, UK, where they quickly gained a reputation for their diverse performances and impressive musical skills. The band consists of Kendall Williams, Luke Engel (part of the band Wild Fenn), Matthew Gordon Price, and Olly Parker. Each member brings their own unique style and influences to the group, resulting in a sound that is both eclectic and cohesive.

Despite their success as a street band, The Busketeers quickly gained a following and began playing at local venues, eventually building a fan base that extended beyond their hometown. Their reputation as a must-see live act grew, and they were soon playing at festivals and venues across the country.

The Busketeers are set to release their album, "The Busketeers," in 2023. The album will showcase the band's impressive range of musical styles and their ability to seamlessly blend them together. From folk to rock to pop, "The Busketeers" is a testament to the bands musical prowess and dedication to their craft.

Since then, The Busketeers have continued to tour and release new music, building a loyal fan base along the way. They have played at some of the UK's biggest music festivals and stages, including Boardmasters, Plymouth Pavilions, Tunes In The Dunes, Leopallooza, Rock Oyster, Tunes In The Park, Rattler Fest, Little Orchard Festival and many more.

As The Busketeers continue to evolve and grow as musicians, one thing remains constant: their commitment to providing audiences with an unforgettable live experience.

Alex Thode (he/him) would first like you to know that not only is the “e” at the end of his last name not silent, but that he is also a composer and arranger most known for his work in the pageantry arts. He resides in Waukesha, Wisconsin with his cat, Buzz. An alumnus of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Alex composes and arranges for marching bands across the continental United States.

Alex's clientele have been Bands of America (BOA) Regional Champions and Finalists, UIL State Finalists and Area Champions, and WGI Winds World Champions, with Finalists in every classification. He has also had the privilege of having his arrangements performed in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and the Tournament of Roses Bandfest.

In addition to his compositions and arrangements for the pageantry arts, Alex also composes symphonic band and chamber percussion works.

In his free time, Alex enjoys watching movies and believing he’s a professional film critic, hiking and pretending that he’s athletic, traveling to National Parks — of which he’d eventually like to visit all — and acting like he’s Marco Polo, playing piano, guitar and a variety of kalimbas, and being with good company.

As the son of a professional flamenco singer, Thomas has always been surrounded by music.  Exposure to flamenco influenced him because it has a dynamic range of emotions—from the "deep singing" style of cante hondo, to the more lively alegrias.  He has also worked in the corporate, independent, and online music industry for a number of years.  At one point he was a Content Manager for the Electronic Music genre at MP3.com, where he screened over 500 songs per day.  Exposure to a wide range of music explains the range of genres in his mixes—he uses whatever carries the mood.  From listening to Umm Kulthum's "Enta Omri" in his childhood, to New Wave and  Industrial as a teen, it became difficult for him to stick to one sound. Though vinyl was his original format of choice when he started in the 90s, the use of digital mixing has helped him better form soundscapes to expand your headspace.  Let him play with your moods for a spell.
