The first submission for Off-Kilter comes from Brooklyn based producer and DJ Ayesha. Plunging into the series with full force, this mix - Tactilia - represents our wonky, heady club vision and it's undeniably explosive.

Ayesha's tactile club productions trace an arc across techno, bass, and diasporic influences with devastating results. Having only released her solo debut on NYC staple Kindergarten Records a year prior, the release of Ayesha’s latest EP ‘Potential Energy’ on UK label Scuffed Recordings has marked the crescendo of a year-long wave of momentum for the artist. Her latest work received critical praise from Mixmag (Best Tracks of the Year 2021), RA (Best New Music), DJ Mag (Fresh Kicks), and the hotly-tipped Lobster Theremin (LT Podcast 176) who join a growing list of international supporters. Most recently in March 2022, Ayesha joined the highly regarded roster of residents at Nowadays: one of New York's most forward-thinking nightlife institutions.

2023-01-14 Live At Blank Mind X Cong Burn 01 (Big Hands, Lack, Paperclip Minimiser, Sam Purcell)

Sobolik is a Brooklyn-based artist whose work as a producer, DJ, promoter and label curator seeks to open dialogues across cultures and practices of modern club music. Co-heading the London label All Centre alongside Simkin and DJ Pitch, Sobolik has been turning heads with futuristic club cuts on labels such as 3024, CloudCore, Woozy, and early reflex. Sobolik's world is filled with colour and hyperkinetic energy - not fitting in one box, their output reacts to a broad palate of styles across North American and UK club music traditions. In February, they released their third EP, entitled Packet Loss, in a debut collaboration with Kindergarten Records, joining modern bass scene luminaries like Ayesha, Sha Ru, and Stolen Velour at Brooklyn’s preeminent home of chaotic, forward-thinking digital percussion tracks.

"This mix is a live recording of my set at the inaugural Ever Afters Campout held in Saratoga, CA—a 3-day queer rave started in the wake of the legendary Gays Hate Techno retreat. I got to play on a custom soundsystem built by my friend Faited and the Envelope crew, a transfemme collective who throw renegades in the Bay Area. At Ever Afters, I was reminded of the importance of DIY and queer autonomy. I experienced mutual care, intentionality, hard work, interdisciplinary collaboration, queer joy, and real rave energy. For my set, I wanted to continue my exploration of the outer zones in club music tempo, slowing down from 98bpm into half-time 180 territory. I was so honored to play for such an engaged crowd who were down to follow all of the peaks and valleys. The first 30 minutes of the set remain between me and the dancers, and the rest is archived here in its original form."

Hessle Audio with Will Hofbauer - 22 May 2023

"This mix is spooky or dark in tone, but occasionally contrasted with lighter qualities. I used that as a metaphor for the transmission, which I envision coming from a cold stony dark-gray world distant from the sun. But there are these large neon bioluminescent, maybe part-reptile part-fish alien creatures about :)"

Our 3024 TAPES series is going from strength to strength! For 006 we are so, so pleased to have one of Bristol's premier contemporary bass masterminds on the buttons, please welcome Yushh!! 


3024: Please describe the mix in a single sentence ?

Yushh: A good level of nuts and emotions 

3024: What DJ inspires you at the moment / has inspired you throughout the years and why?

Yushh : Tom Boogizm has played some of my favourite sets over the past couple of years. Unexpected twists and turns but always huge vibes. I’m lucky in Bristol to be around people like Bruce and Batu who’ve always been inspiring to me as DJs - Love the way they carve out their sets in a unique and unpredictable way. I-sha is also a huge inspiration - her sets don’t even sound like dj sets more like a live - so considered and patient and incredible selections. 


3024: What are you working on / what have you got forthcoming?

Yushh : I’ve just finished up a few remixes which should be dropping pretty soon and hoping to finish up another EP and maybe even a mini album by the end of the year. Otherwise I'm looking forward to diving headfirst into festival season then heading to Asia and Auz later in the year for the first time which is crazy exciting.

For our 240th Truancy Volume, we have the great honour of hosting Bristol-based luminary Batu in the mix. Emerging as one of our favourite producers, DJs and curators in dance music over the last few years, Omar McCutcheon released the first compilation from his brilliant label Timedance in 2018: Patina Echoes highlighted some of the label’s regulars as well as new talent, also featuring individual releases by Laksa, Lurka and Ploy. After a packed few months for Batu himself with releases on other labels including R&S and XL Recordings, this week marks a return to his own imprint with his new EP, False Reeds. False Reeds consists of three percussion-driven cuts for the club, born out of vocal samples re-synthesized into new sounds as source. While it unmistakably sounds like Batu, with a thread of absorbing polyrhythms and a healthy injection of bass-weight, the EP is deliberately more in line with the warmer end of the spectrum rather than techno this time around.
