This DJ set by Mike Servito was recorded somewhere on the astral plane (a filthy Detroit basement) on February 1, 2025, at Ritual Rave, a party celebrating the pagan holiday Imbolc, which signals the start of Spring.

Buckle up and get ready to crank that shit ‘cause you’re in for a wild ride. This set is laced with only the rawest, bitchiest, nastiest, sweatiest, most classic Detroit-basementiest @mikeservito cuts. The rave reviews are in and the critics are hailing it as “A masterpiece of Servito '95. Mike in his highest and most enlightened form. A set so transformative that it effortlessly and masterfully bends the time-space continuum. It's an aural bitchslap like no other. It’s quintessentially pureDetroitmoods."

Ritual Rave is an annual part of Imbolc: https://imbolc.cargo.site/

Mike's set was mastered by @Otodojo.

I haven't posted a live DJ set for a long time - so here's one from this summer's Rural Festival held in the mountains not far from Nagano in Japan. It was my 2nd year at the festival, and I had an amazing time playing from 2.30-5am, with my set starting in pitch black and ending with the sun emerging for the last moments of the set. Big shouts to all the crowd and of course the organisers for having me back!

fabric 92: Call Super
Release date: 17 February 2017 
Label: fabric
Format: CD / Digital
Cat No: fabric182
Release page/order: http://www.fabriclondon.com/store/fabric-92.html

At some point in the early morning the collective pulse in the room shifted. Gone the rollercoaster of the peak hours. Sweat gave way to the fog of the hazy hours, and the crowd has evolved to those in need of undulating epiphanies. This is the stage on which fabric92 unfolds.

"I love playing every hour of the night. However the late hours seemed strangely under represented within this series, and I thought it would be good to start there instead of using this opportunity to add another peak time chapter to the collection."

In a few years this versatility has marked the London born Call Super as one of the brightest new lights on the DJ landscape. His rise has been steady and remarkable, reinforced at every stage with music that draws on a panoply of influences. The son of a New Orleans jazz clarinetist, his curiosity for music was driven by a childhood playing Spanish guitar and the piano before being burnished through teenage revelations in the London club scene.

"The fabric mix series has played an influential role in my learning of my craft. As influential to me as the club itself. The discs recorded by Ellen Allien, Craig Richards, Robert Hood, James Murphy and Pat Mahoney all taught me quite distinct things about track selection and pacing that I think about to this day. The John Peel one became an elegy that I still remember him by as much as his radio shows that I used to listen to. Because of this I wanted my mix to do a few things. Primarily I wanted it to be highly personal, a Polaroid of my way of mixing records. Because my own technique has been influenced by other discs in the series, I had to capture the way I sometimes play in a club."

And that is what this mix is, the sound of a DJ who has drawn in so much in finding their own voice. Records layered and sliced with a deft array of techniques and a singular vision for the room and the time they are operating in. fabric92 eschews the common computer based approach and gives the listener a snapshot of a misty reality. Music should give you a better context for the everyday, it should elate, it should make you angry, sad, it heightens life. This understanding is at the root of Call Super's work, though with this recording he puts it differently:

"For the listener, I simply wanted the music to take you out to sea so we could watch the weather together. This isn’t about getting beat upside the head, this is us dreaming in the dawn."

I recorded this mix in 2018 for the Her Damit festival and titled it the Mystery of the Motherbeat. I was hungry to tour Europe for the first time and agreed to do a mix and play the festival on a shoestring budget. Her Damit went into bankruptcy later that year, failing to pay artists and others for their work.  They also let their Soundcloud account expire, losing all the mixes they commissioned for the series. 

I am re-releasing this mix under its original name. Its real name. It is one of my deepest mixes. It is filled with the love and hope for the future that I put into it. It was recorded a week before I went to visit Maya and Brooke for the first time in March of 2018, exactly two years ago. That visit would change my life.

Eris Drew’s Mystery of the Motherbeat Part 1 (formerly Her Damit)

Founded in the UK in 2008, The Quietus is one of the world’s leading independent websites for quality longform writing on visionary and modernist music and culture, covering all genres with an equal weighting.

The Quietus treats the emerging artists of the genre-melting present with the same reverence the mainstream reserves for the stale canon of yesteryear. We look to reappraise and revitalise those artistic pioneers abandoned in the hinterland.

We champion trailblazing and illuminating cultural journalism from around the world – numerous successful writers and broadcasters are first published on our pages.

After years held back by a creaking old website, The Quietus (tQ to our friends) has been regenerated, providing an indispensable portal to a realm of cultural discovery, devilment and debate.

“The Quietus believes in the power of cultural criticism to cut through the noise of social media and the ultimately disappointing guidance of tech platform algorithms. To write down a series of words that have never been combined before, expressing a complex series of emotions, thoughts and experiences that unites writer and reader at a level that feels telepathic and changes the joint experience of reality: That is the definition of magic.” – tQ Co-founder John Doran.
