With some delay due to brown and green excuses, we are kicking off 2023 with another very interesting DJ to host a great episode of the 420μHz podcast!

Mr. Clifford a.k.a Kliff Persson https://soundcloud.com/kliff-persson, delivers a 2-hour high quality techno story, Taking us between the melodic, proggy and some of the murky waters of psychedelia. The 420µHz Bardo #15 of our podcast is called End The Beginning, and is our “finally back on track” episode to start this year.

This cool dude, originally from Trelleborg, got a trance record back in 1996rom a friend, after moving to Malmö.That’s how he got hooked on that rhythmical, bass-driven sound that attracted another kind of people. A sound away from apparent commercialism and superficial musical interactions, towards a crowd who mindfully chose their venues and DJs, where curated music was the gravitating center.

This advance in Mr. Clifford’s evolution, made him take his first leap into playing as a DJ in 1998. A step he also credits to all the producers who made his craft possible back then and continue to do so today.

Interestingly enough, this journey did not start in the 6 month long dark cloudy season of Scandinavia but in sun-drenched Goa India. Back then under the so locally suitable artist moniker “The Spliff”.

Ever since he has been playing everything from prog, tech house, techno and minimal in Thailand, Germany, India, Sweden and Denmark. Teaming up on occasion with his buddy DJ SaTaYa a.k.a Peter Lindgren https://soundcloud.com/djsataya. Eventually, landing a gig together in 2006,  at the legendary Fusion Festival near Lärz Germany.

And as for the set, we’ll take it from the man himself:

“This set started out as I just wanted to show my type of favourite tunes, with some slow crawling tunes to get u interested. And as I self got warmed up and started to visualise myself on the dance floor beside the crowd and started to feel how I would like the night to unfold, I could feel the high energy with a smile and warmness in my chest - and then I knew that was the way to go.

I was going for tunes with playful melodies, attitude and some hard drive, but still in harmony and I feel quite pleased with the result. 
 
And I just hope you will feel happiness and strength when my story carries you away through the night. I want to play music that keeps you on your feet, always with drive and melodies, it doesn't have to be high bpm for making people move.”

So here we are after an 8 month absence, due to moves, re-organization and split focus. We find ourselves at last here at the emergence of Bardo #15 of our 420µHz podcast - End The Beginning

… as final reminder before we kick this one off, always remember to relax, smile, and rewind your rented VHS tapes before returning them to your movie rental store.

End The Beginning

420µHz - Bardo #15 - Mr. Clifford - End The Beginning

Mirko Antico https://soundcloud.com/mirkoantico unveils his latest hypnotic DJ set “Distortion Depth” on the 420µHz Podcast Bardo 16 - A journey Into the dark and minimalistic sides of techno. Featuring his signature techno sound, this episode is a must-listen for techno fans seeking a journey into a distortion-filled abyss.

As distortion is such an integral part of techno, we are treated to its various forms in this gem of a set. Starting off by setting a tone of dark, trippy, and deep grooves, I am hypnotized by the tracks and skilful mixes. Slowly but surely the energy and tempo pick up, eventually transitioning into a 303 acid madness towards the end. 
Listening to his tracks it is clear that his sound is characterized by its minimalistic concept, as well as its use of darker, hypnotic sounds with atmospheric injections. A combination that melts well with dynamic and rhythmic percussions, fundamentally supported by a deep and distorted kick and bass. Something that equates to techno in our ears.

This is not only me writing praise for our guest. A great testament to his skills is that his tracks have been supported and played by DJs like Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati, Richie Hawtin, Rafa Siles, Fabio Florido, Bilboni, Luigi Madonna, Paco Osuna, Maceo Plex, Alex Costa, and many more.

So here we are, deep in 2023, we find ourselves at last here at the playing out of Bardo #16 of our 420µHz podcast - Distortion Depth

…and as always remember to relax, smile, and follow Alice, who follows the White Rabbit, who follows the Queen of Hearts on Instagram.
