Aterral Mix 11 - Baldo

Everything's gonna be alright.

And here is ostend‘s live take #6. 
This time mixed by no one else but our super darling Lasse Lambretta.

A very recognizable, playful sound is key element to most of his mixtapes, since he combines a very special style of mixing with an exeptional selection of tracks. The dancy but sometimes dark and melancholic rhythm of this tape perfectly describes this special time of fast changes, that we all are part of currently.

But we are more than happy to give you this simple advice - while you’re listening:
Take off your shoes and dance outside in the sun.

Summer is here.

Horse Meat Disco - 19 February 2023

Interview & tracklist: http://bit.ly/3Krt9lC

@izzycamina is soundtracking the end times with unstoppable techno-pop

"Motivated by both a deep love - and repugnance - of NYC’s post-pandemic scene, I still feel like there are some sonic and emotional voids in the city that need plumbing. I idealise the atmosphere of New York City’s ‘80s clubbing golden age. All you need to do is watch footage of the way people moved their bodies at these parties to understand. If I was throwing a house party, this is what you'd hear - a set doused in my own personal taste and bias. As another young person raised on shuffle, this comes with a degree of chaos and inconsistency, like the track selection. With our collectively shortened attention spans, however, I don’t see that as a bad thing (as much as I like going zombie mode and vegging out to the same kick pattern for hours on end).

This mix is actually.. mixed. Intro’d with a playful Sextile remix and punctuated with two emotional and personal heavy-hitters - ‘Adjacent Casualty’ by Kumo99 and ‘I Am Not a Casualty’ by Louisahh and Maelstrom. Keyword: Casualty. I’m not afraid to drop some cringe or profundity or poetry. Maybe a song here and there that isn’t electronic at all. Dancing and clubbing, to me, is sacred catharsis. I want to tailor an atmosphere for people who desire the same release."

Sub Club with Harri & Domenic [Live at Subculture ~ NYE 2022] - 17 February 2023

Esa is a producer, musician and DJ who has never been one to sit still. He is always working on something exciting and seems to draw strength from collaboration and the creativity of others as much as he does himself. Over the years he has released music on the likes of Highlife, Local Talk, Dekmantel, Bronswood, Endless Flight and many more – his sound evolving based upon his external influences and discoveries of late.

Based in London, he is incredibly well travelled and has worked alongside a number of musicians and bands, seeking to broaden his musical horizons and draw upon the roots of the sound and cultures which have informed his tastes.

As a DJ Esa is well versed, honing his craft on dancefloors in Glasgow where he held his first residency at the infamous Subculture. It is here that this mixtape was recorded, his return to the party earlier this year was a triumphant tour de force showcasing just how far Esa has come as an artist.

This mixtape spans a wide variety of styles and sounds but most importantly is destined to keep you moving and dancing throughout. Sometimes live sets don’t make much sense out of context, yet in this case there is something special captured in the sound which makes you feel like you are right down the front banging that old Sub Club booth.

Esa: The 'Wednesday Alternative' Mix

Episode 15 of my residency on Radio Sofa 🌄

Esa is a London-based South African producer, DJ, and curator renowned for his musical polymathy. He seamlessly blends Kwaito house, afro disco, gritty techno and deep percussive grooves.
As a resident DJ at Sub Club, he proved his natural talent behind the decks and developed a strong European following. He can be heard on his monthly slot on Gilles Peterson's Worldwide FM.
Esa's dedication to expanding musical horizons is evident through his educational programs in Africa, South America, and beyond, where he collaborates with local talent and seeks creative inspiration.

Embark on a sun-kissed journey with this mix, an irresistible blend of melodies, groovy beats, and vibrant rhythms that will have you dancing and smiling all day long.

Esa Boiler Room x Dekmantel Festival DJ Set

yoyaku instore session : Daniel Bell

Over the coming months I'll be sharing snippets of my sets at Phonox. Here's an hour captured during a warmup at my new residency. 

Since I’ve started it's allowed me to delve a bit deeper into the sounds I grew up with in Cape Town, South Africa around the late 80’s to early 90’s. It’s been very special and loads of fun playing and sharing "Kwaito" in particular, a genre formed at the end of apartheid which presented new musical possibilities and ideas, taking inspiration from classic Chicago House but with a slower and groovier tempo, enjoy!

Tracklist:
1. Sylvester - I Need Somebody To Love Tonight (Instrumental)
2. Nu Guinea - Ddoje Facce
3. Zazou Bikaye - Angel (Long Version)
4. Sea Bee - Thiba
5. Alaska - Hosher (Instrumental)
6. Mdu - Tsiki Tsiki
7. Alaska - Accuse (Instrumental)
8. Penny Penny - Maria
9. Professor Rhythm - Via Botswana
10. Hot Slot Machine - Rhythm (Young Marco Fix)
11. Chappies - Beat Gangsters
12. And beyond, join me at Phonox weekly and come experience the rest….

Phonox Residency (Warmup Hour)

Each Saturday at Phonox I delve deeper into the music that's inspired and continues to influence me, sounds from my travels and tracks from my homeland South Africa that's almost been lost forever!

This hour mix is a great representation of the colourful sounds and what you can expect as we start moving into the middle of the night, getting a little bit more loose and ready to dance together All Night Long!

Jon Sable steps in as the next artist in our mix series, a man you may recognise from releases on Tief, and most recently In Dust We Trust. The latter of which he runs with fellow Kiwi's and collaborators Chaos in the CBD.

In his own words: 

'This mix was recorded at my home in London. It's a mix of house, dub techno & electronica. It also includes a track off an unreleased collaborative project between myself and Chaos in the CBD, which will be out on our label soon. In this mix I've done my best to channel my current confused mental state into and hour of music that is tough but comforting at the same time.'
