Here we are with a recording from the first (but certainly not last) time Kiernan Laveaux graced the decks at Nowadays back in September of 2021. In it you’ll find so much of what we’ve come to love about the T4T LUV NRG affiliate: swarming percussion, freaky and frenetic psychedelia, otherworldly groove, a captivating sense of narrative, and so much more. 

This mix is a two and a half hour segment from her closing set, after DJ Voices and Azu Tiwaline earlier in the night. Packed to the brim with moments of tension and release, it makes for one truly wild and mesmerizing ride. The home listener is likely to find it just as enchanting as the dancers did. 

Big thanks to our staff and all those in attendance on this night <3

For entry number 9 in the PPRZ Podcast series, we have a mix from New York's @RonLikeHell

Ron Like Hell provides eclectic sets venturing into obscure international sounds, Techno, Synth, House, Acid and Disco which are appreciated by some of the most discerning dance floor enthusiasts.
Approaching a dj mix as assemblages, Ron Like Hell aligns sound with emotion, focusing on texture to create psychedelic soundscapes, imaginative spaces for comfort and surprise spectators with an unexpected crafty transition. With 26+ years of making people dance in numerous countries along with years of vinyl shop experience and music promotion, his/their role in the industry is unique and influential. Their latest production, EXALT is their dream come true where Ron selects a personally beloved dj to play solo then close out the night together with a b2b set. EXALT's first guest was Matrixxman in April 2022 at Basement in Ridgewood-Queens, NY. Ron also djs as Wrecked, a music first queer dance party which turns 12 in 2023.

about the mix:
after playing some power hour time slots of slamming techno, I decided to share a thawing of the frost style deep techno mix to reflect the expansion of the soil as it warms with more sunlight allowing late winter flowers to bloom. A few tracks included here feature some producers that hooked me up with amazing music and tracks I purchased to support and uplift their amazing talent. For podcasts I do not approach the mix as a club gig but more as heady backroom bliss out hang with a little sass. Thanks to Tanner and Adam of PPRZ for inviting me to contribute to their great podcast series.

Erin grew up in the midwest in the 90s, isolated from the rave scene but having a chance discovery of Warp Records and adjacent UK dance music via the internet in their teenage years. In the blog house era of 2007 they started playing a monthly party in Madison, WI, which led to a brief residency at Smartbar in Chicago before moving to NYC in 2009. This move coincided with a growing musical dissatisfaction. The scene they knew felt and sounded increasingly vapid and commercialized. At this point Erin took a long hiatus from DJing and instead focused on showing up to parties in order to listen, both figuratively and literally. It wasn’t until 2014 when they first attended Movement in Detroit, and more specifically No Way Back, that they started to find their place in it all and the sounds that still move them today.

In the years between then and now was a winding path through many cities, scenes, and parties across the globe in search of a more complete picture of a community that resonated. Time was spent in LA helping with the Acid Camp parties, and another 2.5 year run in NYC which led to a deeper love and connection to the house & techno music scenes there via The Carry Nation and The Bunker parties, among many others. All of these influences helped them find their footing and in 2018 they attended Honcho Campout for the first time. This contributed greatly to a decision to move to Pittsburgh in 2020 at which point all of these experiences started to coalesce into who Erin Platner is today. Alongside the quick adoption of a new home came the desire to share who they had become, musically, back to the dance music communities that had given them so much. This is the sound that comes through today in Erin’s mixes and DJ sets.

“This mix is my attempt to tell a story about the past five to six years of my life. A period of major upheaval, loss, learning, forgiveness, growth, and ultimately celebration. It touches on some of my most cherished influences during this time, specifically in New York, Taiwan, Berlin, and most importantly my adopted home town of Pittsburgh. It’s a tale of accepting pain, leaning into the difficulty of moving forward and being vulnerable, coming out the other side to tell the tale, and ultimately coming back to the dance floor to absolutely lose it to great music surrounded by friends. Thank you for listening!”
