Pacing the Platform 5 w/ upsammy on NTS (31.03.21)

Adam McCoy is a musician and dj based in Melbourne, Australia. To some he might perhaps be better known as Citizen Maze, a producer who has developed a following for his abstract, ethereal take on ambient, house and techno.

His two releases on Analogue Attic were critically acclaimed for their wise, deep and pensive approach to the genre. They cemented him as a producer operating at a level very much beyond his years. 

When he approached us and asked if he could contribute a mix to our series we weren't entirely sure what to expect, we knew it might be dreamy, we knew it would be dubbed out. However, it's wholeheartedly interesting and refreshing to see an artist deliver a mix showcasing a different side to their own musical interests.

This time Adam digs deep for obscure IDM, Drum n Bass and focusses on setting a mood. 

This is a beautiful mix, strap in.

The Astral Industries resident is set to return to the DJ booth this August at Iklectic in London and Ufonic Festival in Italy, as well as launching his own label alongside Hems later in 2021 focusing on drone, live recordings and spatial sound.

An exceptional club mix from Brooklyn based Lychee. 

@lycheefrut

I first discovered Lychee a while ago via their mixes on two of my favourite series: @sure_thing and @daisychain_podcast. I am always inspired by their ability to put together a stunning set with breadth and depth, always leaving me eager to dig in a new direction. 

Alongside curating the mix and interview series @spontaneousaffinity Lychee has been busy playing a steady schedule of gigs, and their Maybe mix is a wonderful encapsulation of hard and fast dance floor energy ranging from moody broken techno to euphoric drum and bass. Thank you so much for contributing Alyce, absolute fire as always.

Final Frontier with Agonis & Tristan Kino - 8th January 2022

Jacob Long has been crafting Earthen Sea material since the early 2000s. He gradually graduated from limited-edition cassettes to releases on Ital's Lover's Rock and Nicolas Jaar's Other People imprints, before linking up with the evergreen label Kranky in 2017. His third album for Kranky, Ghost Poems, comes out next week. We celebrate with an hour of music built as spring emerges around him in Brooklyn, full of contrasts between light and decay.
