Shanghai-based producer and DJ Laughing Ears became known to us through her 'Metamorphosis' EP on the inimitable Chinabot, an imprint showcasing some of the most exciting Asian artists operating in the experimental electronic sphere.

She's carved out her own sonic niche, which sees her chopping and screwing footwork and dubstep-inspired beats with haunting atmospheres and layers of synthesis. Since then she's also landed on the likes of Infinite Machine for her debut LP 'Blood' before being snapped up by Untold's Hemlock Recordings for her latest EP, 'Losing Track': another deep dive into broken rhythms, bass experiments and eerie atmospheres.

Off the back of the release, we asked her to deliver a mix which gives you an introduction to the sounds that form the backbone of her DJ sets and her own productions.

Good morning, good afternoon and good evening. Whatever part of the world you're in.... Many are distracted, but a few are not, these are the ones who hear details, for those who care. These words and mix are from Majo Villalobos.

Circadian Rhythm w. Diamin guest GHKC ! Tune in now!
How does the presence or absence of light regulates our internal biological processes and moods?
Circadian rhythms are endogenous time-keeping systems that synchronize most organisms, from unicellular cyanobacterium to humans, to the external solar cycle. Since light information is the most potent synchronizing factor, biological clocks coordinate the individual’s internal physiological and biochemical processes according to light and dark cycles.

The show is divided into two sets of 1 hour and the musical selection of each DJ reflects those moments: day or night. In this episode Diamin (CL) is in charge of the first part of the program, and GHKC (AR) of the second.

VISION

Antagonism is the result of a studio session with:
Fred T. Baker ( Bass )
Mark Hewins ( Guitar )
Javier Paxariño ( Saxophon )
and Ullip ( Drums and Fender Rhodes piano)
A piece out of the Album „Agitation Free“
A piece of contrasts and therefore polarising at the same time. A mixture of four completely different musical styles, characterised by free improvisation and an intuitive approach. It is a piece of incomparable dynamism and joy of playing by the protagonists. A piece to fall in love with, to appreciate jazz rock, progressive and psychedelic music. Not a piece to just listen to in passing. It will challenge you. Get involved and you will experience a rapid flight through time with all its antagonisms.
