Baby F-16

@moneylang makes music poised somewhere between trance-inflected romance and day-glo avant-pop. Where a debut mixtape for Gabber Eleganza's @neversleeplife imprint laid down a marker, the debut proper, complete with appearances from Rainy Miller and Baby Blue, further demonstrated an aptitude for crafting crystalline, earworm melody.

Now, ahead of releasing the followup next week, ML jumps on the podcast series with a mix of unreleased and original production material.

“Here’s a mix solely consisting of my own productions - with some unreleased, some VIPs and some upcoming material on Never Sleep; this is most likely what a Money Lang live show would sound, without the frenzy and the people. Enjoy…” – Money Lang

Tracklist:

Money Lang - Summer (VIP) 
Money Lang - Treviso Mare (VIP)
Money Lang - 300ZX Atmospherique
Money Lang - Kings Never Die (VIP)
Money Lang - Same Years (VIP)
Money Lang - Loveless (VIP)

If-Only Podcast #116: Money Lang

The latest podcast sees Petrola 80 bosses @lyravalenza take a restrained approach while placing specific focus on their local Copenhagen scene.

A collaboration between longstanding friends Jens Konrad and Hjalte Lehman, the LV blueprint transcends genre. It’s day-glo rave ordnance that draws from eurodance, techno and the so-called hardcore continuum – nostalgic and undeniably fwd-facing at once.

Distilling the euphoria of their live sets into 8 distinct tracks, debut full-length ‘Low Gear No Pressure’ spanned everything from blissed ambience to precision-tooled breakbeats and trance-tinged jungle. Dipping into downtempo territory for the first time, it also represented a broadening of their already eclectic palette, and this mix certainly continues in that vein.
 
“Our recent DJ appearances and mixes have been hazy peak-hour sets, so here, we wanted to dive a little deeper and explore slower BPMs and tracks we rarely get the chance to play out, combined with tunes we usually play in the beginning of our sets. It’s also the first time we chose to work with a strict gender balance between the featured artists and producers. And as usual we focused on the booming Copenhagen scene, this time including local artists such as Gavnlig, Muskila, Capitana, DJ Paydar and Mbizo.” – Lyra Valenza

@preciousmetalsx founder @therealendgame, AKA “the devil himself”, in the building for the latest podcast.

Co-founding the now-defunct Bala Club to launching Precious Metals, the NTS mainstay is one of London’s foremost underground operators: a prolific producer, DJ and label owner that counts the likes of Kamixlo, Yayoyanoh and Organ Tapes among his closest peers and collaborators. 

Committed to platforming emerging artists, no stone is left unturned in his label’s pursuit of dysfunction and emotive-driven, genre-bending cross-pollination. It’s music that draws from the chaos of the urban complex; intense, visceral, sometimes nocturnal, and, on occasion, violent in the extreme.

And where his own productions straddle the line between severe electronics, drill abstraction and Latinx styles, this mix treads a similar path. 

“The mix is the soundtrack to a inward spiral - propelled towards the blessed chaos of our inner most desires and fears, entwined in sacred rapture.” – ENDGAMƎ

NYC scene figurehead and podcast contributor Ex Wiish keeps things horizontal with a 45-minute exercise in total immersion. 

We're gassed to have the 29 Speedway founder on board for this one. Something of a luminary in the Big Apple scene, the sound artist and composer has grown increasingly experimental with age, culminating in  a widescreen debut for Anthony Naples' Incienso label.

Where that album oscillated between windswept arrangements, lacerating IDM and downbeat styles, his mix taps into the same vein of transcendent, meditative experimentalism. 

“For this mix I wanted to feature tracks by some of the artists who have recently been involved with 29 Speedway on tour alongside music I’ve found inspiring as of late. Picks from Flora Yin Wong, Lauren Duffus, Yolabmi, Eric Frye, bod [包家巷], KMRU, Exael and some other favourites”. – Ex Wiish

Gassed to have arch futurist and @polaarsounds founder @flore on the podcast series.

As the brains behind a label constantly upending expectations and convention, the Lyon native has achieved cult status among discerning music heads. If you haven’t checked the POLAAR output, not to mention Flore’s own productions, you only have yourself to blame. It’s curation without compromise, defined by a voracious appetite for innovation.

Flexing a commitment to reckless abandon and clubwise experimentation, the mix treads a similar path. Bassbin accelerators and hardcore torque in abundance. 

“This mix is a collection of new and old tracks that represent my current mood: a mixture of introspection and excitement. In a few days we are starting the celebration of the 10th anniversary of my POLAAR label with a party at the Machine du Moulin Rouge in Paris (one of the biggest we have ever organised).

It proved the perfect occasion to delve back into the archives and it was surprisingly pleasant to see how far we have come. It’s also an opportunity to think about the new creative directions we want to take in the years to come. I've made the selection while working on this, and I think the mix reflects that state of mind.” - Flore

Gauzy bliss-out and pop abstraction to forward-facing dancefloor pressure, @imgonebaby founder Jetty (@mystictearz) delivers the 131st podcast. 

67 engrossing minutes from a real one. Definitely the handiwork for the brains behind a label that trades in the tender, mutant, smudged and sublime.

“Sometimes I’m catering to the imaginary techno-industrial board of directors… sometimes my eyes are closed and my brain is smooth. This one has been Schwinn and Salt Marsh approved - the true test of pure intent. All glory goes to the producers behind the songs I stitched together.” – Jetty

PREMIERE #1388 | SouveQ - Pattogi (88Dubs Remix) [Secret Fusion] 2021

For its forthcoming release, the Italian label Nothing Is Real, curated by the respected and acclaimed duo Modular Project (SXDNS136), gathered an absurd team of new Mexican talents. “Nothing Is Real Vol. 3 – Made In Mexico” features five intricate tracks developed by the ingenious minds of eight rising Latin artists: Mufti and Tapia, flying solo, Montessori feat. Gael Gael, Javier Martinez (SXDNS104) & Ulises Arrieta (SXDNS193), and Colossio (SXDNS025) & Cabizbajo, working in pairs. All of them debuting with the right foot on the Italian imprint.

For the track we selected to premiere, Colossio & Cabizbajo explore their techno and electro influences and delivered a rather different theme from their previous works. On “Rapto”, the lads created something beautifully spooky out of futuristic FXs and creative sonic manipulations that float above a gloriously resonant synth bass. Taking subtle cues from both Vangelis and vaporwave, this hellish tune is an impressive demonstration of how far the Nothing Is Real sonority can reach. We have a bomb release here, peeps!

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://nothingisrealrecords.bandcamp.com/

Follow @colossiomx, @cabizbajo & @nothingisrealrecords, peeps!
