One for the submersible crew, GGHQ Mix no.73 breezing and bubbling through. 

Our Berlin buddy and Celtic soul brother Jank Inc. supplying us with 70+ minutes of lefthand electrics of all shades and persuasions. One of the founders of Berlin club night and record label 'Pace Yourself', Jack has been out there transmitting for a wee while now. We've played at his heady club night at Paloma in the past, where a disgusted German woman stormed out of the club midway through the majestic Red Zone remix of Will Downing's 'The world is a ghetto' stating that it was 'the most offensive thing' she'd ever heard, followed by a near sunday morning war with the denizens of Görlitzer Park. All in all - we knew were kindred with the Pace Yourself mob that weekend. Only right then, that Jack should come aboard the good ship GG for a mix. 

Jack's mix is deep, subtle, atmospheric and introspective. The perfect music to drift to, all lovingly put together on a recent visit to his mother's house in Scotland. If you've tuned in to any of his Refuge Worldwide shows, or attended any of his underground events, then you know already. We're happy to present this one, get lost in it. You'll like it.

GGHQ Mix #73 : Jank Inc. - 'The Doghouse'

Mozhgan, who first came to Japan in 2017 for a club event by rural and rose to fame the following year with a closing set performed with her ally Solar, has delivered a mix for us. The set is based on the dark, acid techno that she is best known for, with classic tracks carefully woven in here and there. Please take a listen to this mysterious journey of sound by a DJ who represents the underground scene of San Francisco, USA.

Command D summons the gods of the deep to have us completely submerged in a world of interdimensional dub techno, traversing us through an hour and a half of infinitely looped reflections and subaquatic soundscapes.

Q. This certainly feels like one of your most immersive mixes to date, deeply contemplative and full of dreamy dub techno atmospherics. What inspiration did you draw upon, and what type of setting or situation could you imagine it being enjoyed in? 

A. I started to get into this sound when I was putting together my mix for the Moonshoe mix series. I didn’t know what to call it at the time but I found all of those tunes and tied them together with a certain feeling that was really inspiring me then, it was very organic and that is still one of my favourite mixes. You can hear dub elements scattered throughout that whole mix.

As I started incorporating more dub elements into my productions I discovered artists like Stephen Hitchell and Rhythm & Sound that had created a kind of music that was really extremely satisfying for me to listen to, especially considering my developing love for hi-fi and larger sound systems. I incorporated those artists into my FHUO mix which was a much more considered exploration of the style. Looking back on the process of making the mixes and how much I enjoyed them really assures me that the deep and contemplative sound is a big part of who I am.

For this mix I’ve taken inspiration from the MDC series itself which I’ve been listening to for years. I wanted to add little hints of deep house sounds as a nod to the mixes of the past. I personally think mixes like this are the best to listen to when you’re travelling and looking out a window, otherwise maybe sitting at a desk on a rainy day doing some work. I’d like people to listen to this in a time where they won't be distracted by something else or feel the need to skip forward, I’d want people to just throw it on and let it play, drifting in and out of the tracks and their own thoughts.

Q. Are there any songs in the mix that are especially close to your heart, and what is it about these tracks that resonate with you so much?

A. My favourite tracks in the mix are Saftig Komposition by Rasmus Hedlund and Sedlec Ossuary by Persuasion. At a base level I love these tracks because they take a more modern approach to a dub techno track with tight production. Going deeper, the thing that really resonates with me is hard to put into words and best left unsaid. I think this kind of music (along with many other kinds) allows the listener to feel emotions that aren't able to be put into words, part of why I love it so much. I find that dub techno specifically can feel sad and happy at the same time like lots of jazz ballads. That to me is a really beautiful sound that kind of encapsulates life in general.

Q. Tell us about the development of your live set, and where things are currently at with it? Do you feel like you’re able to explore different shades of your sound when playing in a live setting?

A. Putting together my first live set was an awesome experience. I got to play it all around Australia from clubs to rainforests. I’ve put the current live set to bed for now and am starting to work on a new one with a slightly different setup. Although it was a challenging experience, I loved making a live set because often when I would dig for tunes to play out I’d think ‘I wish I had a song like this’ and writing a live set meant that I could bring those ideas to life and curate a set exactly how I wanted. I think I’m really starting to settle into ‘my sound’ in production and DJing, but there are creative limitations in both like finding new music or learning new skills. Overcoming technical barriers in production allows me to get closer to my most true form of expression when it comes to what’s coming out the speakers so I’ve been really working on that recently. Hoping the next live set will be bigger and better : )

Campout Mix Series: Dorisburg

Recorded at 428 stage at Wonderfruit Festival in 2023.

Mozhgan: Iranian born but California based Artist/DJ Mozhgan has been honing her dark arts on the decks for quite some time. In 2011 she started "We Are Monsters," a party to develop her passion for
contemporary, dark, and mysterious dance floor sounds.
Mozhgan is a sonic alchemist who’s musical languages traverse between mysterious planes and wondrous vortexes. Her singular technique focuses on uncanny juxtapositions of sound that seamlessly unify and project spiritual light, creating luminous pronunciations that voyage deep into the shadowy spaces of the subconscious. As an acolyte of the acidic temple, and founder of the We are Monsters gatherings, Mozhgan fearlessly confronts the onstricting limits of the status quo while simultaneously rejecting them with arcane spells that defy time and space.
By projecting hypnotic sound waves that rupture the mundane, her cosmic utterances permit extraterrestrial passages that venture beyond the tranquil pathways of familiarity.

Solar: It’s easy to avoid tired tropes when talking about Solar. The typical cheeky embellishment of an artist biography is simply unnecessary in this case.
He’s been a prime player across several decades of the Bay Area’s underground dance music timeline. He’s an experienced, skilled, and creative selector - one who makes the well-worn quip of a "DJ’s DJ" seem pithy and redundant. As a part of Sunset Sound System, he and his partners have peppered California and beyond with 25 years of thoughtfully conceived and carefully crafted events, chief among them the delightful and dreamy Sunset Campout. He presents spacey, tough, intuitive, and often psychedelic music to the universe via his (and C.L.A.W.S.) label, Squirrels On Film. He’s delivered focused and inspired mixes to myriad curatorial collaborators including Dekmantel, Resident Advisor, Boiler Room, and Rush Hour.
Most of all, though, he’s a person of passion, consistency, dedication, and skill who can make your party a better place by sharing his spirit, creativity, and vision.

Mozhgan B2B Solar at 428 Wonderfruit 2023

The opener for 2025 is a mix by Khotin from Edmonton, known for his productions from such as Ghostly and Public Release. This 80mins recorded live in Victoria, British Columbia on August 5, 2023 sounds very imaginative. Over a powerful yet rounded bottom and nimbly dancing percussion, the dreamy and melancholic melodies that can be found his works sway, and his dubbed-out groove sometimes with a slight feverishness, but always maintaining a low altitude will make you feel as if you are dancing in the morning haze. Let's go deeper together.
