(TraXx) Presents- The Definitive Articles Of House Music Chapter 4

Punk house and techno from a modern Midwest icon.

Every DJ has their own genesis story: a pivotal sound, a formative scene, a defining philosophy. In Kiernan Laveaux's case, her philosophy, rooted in psychedelia and experimentation, sets her apart. Inspired by Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode and New Order, she came of age in Cleveland’s acid house and queer party scenes, developing an ethos that constantly pushes dance music’s limits. Her DJ style is scrambled (in the best way), with zany tricks like scratching, creative EQing and modulation.

This approach reflects the Midwest's DIY tradition, where artists thrive in isolation and cultivate a radical disobedience, as seen in contemporaries like Eris Drew and ADAB. As Laveaux recounted in a 2023 interview with GROOVE Magazin, "Titonton Duvante once told me that being a Midwest DJ is about playing music from anywhere and making it sound like a piece of your spirit."

Spanning two and a half hours, Laveaux's RA Podcast showcases this spirit. It’s a testament to her decade-long career, blending tracks from friends and cherished memories into a transcendent mix. It’s "music to shake your hips to and decalcify your pineal gland." (For the curious, the pineal gland helps regulate your circadian rhythm.) RA.963 will make you dance and think in equal measure—a beautiful, restless and resolutely wicked journey through a singular imagination.

Dubbed Out - DJ G - 19 Aug 2025

I found my old files to one of my favourite albums I made called Rebitten By The Lizard when I went on Holiday to Lizard in Cornwall here in the UK. So I decided to reimagine all the main tracks into something a little more upbeat and covers rave genres House, Jungle/Drum & Bass and UK Funky. If you want to listen to the original album the links are below.

Washed Up (Dead Fishes Remix)

'Pray' by MRGOODALF & AGUSTTIN is a radiant, uplifting tech house journey that celebrates pure good vibes and human connection. Built around an infectious groove, soulful vocal hooks, and warm, driving energy, it’s the kind of track that turns a moment into a memory. “Pray” captures the essence of joy on the dance floor — a release of energy, gratitude, and unity that reminds us why we dance in the first place.
