Rusted Rhythms - Mix Series

@phydrabass

In order to pack a proper punch for Rusted Rhythms Vol. 46, we felt compelled to team up with Phydra for a rambunctious hour of Drum and Bass anthems and rollers. Head of the @Danktronics record label, and having been previously featured through The Rust with his track "Exposure", the pairing could hardly be more natural, and Phydra's exquisite dive into the DnB spectrum hits the mark several times over.

Maneuvering from bass weight to melodic fluidity and back again, the mix is awash with rapid transitions, crushing breakdowns, and smooth-cruising liquid fundamentals. With clear control over mixability and a powerful and eclectic mix of tunes, Phydra's command of his DnB experience betrays the time and effort put into laying out a fluid mix with such demonstrable skill, and if it sent us into a tizzy, it's liable to send old fans and new ears into a full on frenzy.

Imaginary Landscapes 1

Subverting compositional and design tropes each step of the way, the Zonra project has maintained a striking consistency in its escape from the norms of conventional electronic music. Straddled somewhere between the dance-centric sound of contemporary bass music producers and the aural experimentation developed by IDM pioneers, Jackson Hale achieves a stable balance between groove and intrigue with each subsequent release, moving that needle closer to either end whenever the need arises. In time-tested fashion, his latest LP is a work of beauty from every angle, and as such, The Rust is incredibly excited to premiere Time Is A Tool as our 61st label release.

Time Is A Tool - Full Album Mix

These songs are quite meaningful and deep to my heart, so I very much hope you enjoy them. Thank you for listening! <3

@jessie_nestra

Soaring into Brooklyn at terminal velocity from the Mile High City of Denver, Nestra's performance at BK Mirage landed in the dead center of a 12 hour marathon cutting-edge dance floor music. Known as an impeccable selector and DJ in her home city, it's no surprise that she hit the decks with extreme prejudice. After being boots on the ground ourselves for the ensuing frenzy, we're incredibly excited to host Nestra's recorded set in posterity as the 50th edition of Rusted Rhythms.

Stepping squarely out of the boundaries of her contemporaries sharing the stage, Nestra's hour in the spotlight featured a whiplash cocktail of breakbeat, house, and a dash of psybient attitude. The frenetic rhythms and the driving low end featured throughout the mix come from a deep well of talent, including the likes of Nikki Nair, Guau, and Sam Binga, with each track burning serious rubber out of each successive transition. For beat freaks in the mood for a percussive hailstorm with moxie to boot, look no further than Rusted Rhythms Vol. 50.

@lusine-official

With a decades-spanning career and carefully curated catalog of original compositions, Lusine has remained tapped into the center of eclectic electronic productions since the early adolescence of various contemporary styles. Brandishing a diligent focus on melody and syncopation, his works have been both influential to rising producers and composers, and infectious on stage beneath the spotlight. In anticipation of his performance at the Submersion Festival this fall, The Rust and Submersion are incredibly excited to present an hour-long Lusine DJ mix as the 51st edition of our Rusted Rhythms mix series.

In classic Lusine fashion, there's no hard anchor to any rhythm, mode, or motif; weaving seamlessly through both broken and steady beat tracks, there's a clear upward slope to the gradual change in energy and pace. Starting from the ground floor, choice downtempo and trip-hop oriented offerings slowly ebb into faster, sleeker rhythms, dipping back and forth between organic and synthetic timbres. The entire mix is laden with goods from a slew of top-notch creatives, including Weval, Dorian Concept, Ole Beige, and Ross with Friends, bringing numerous disciplines of electronic music under one sumptuous roof. Whether you're looking to get acquainted with this soft-spoken veteran's domain of sound, or just keeping the anticipation growing for his first East Coast performance of 2022, look no further than Rusted Rhythms Vol. 51.

Rusted Rhythms Vol. 51 - Lusine [Submersion Edition]

@Luke-Vibert

Delivering sound with an attitude for over thirty years, the UK's Luke Vibert has remained a stalwart producer and DJ at the forefront of progressive electronic music throughout his multifaceted career. Known by numerous aliases with compositions ranging from jungle, to IDM, to trip hop and back again, Vibert has consistently evolved, adapted, and mutated his focus with each next revolution around the sun, merging with the intended backdrop with chameleon verisimilitude. Continuing our collaborative run of Rusted Rhythms with Submersion Festival, we're honored to have the opportunity to host a two-hour mix of personal selections and cuts from Vibert's own palette.

Pushing two hours-worth of sheer groove with relative ease, the mix is awash with tangential elements of jazz, funk, soul, and the jivey interplay between those houses of rhythm and mode. It's built around a subtle, pendular flow that brings the energy in and out of high gear with an organic bent, locking in the engagement and delivering serving after serving of prime, instrumental goodness. With no frills and no filler, Luke Vibert delivers a double-stuffed package that makes us all the more excited for his double-header performance under both the Luke Vibert and Wagon Christ monikers at Submersion Festival in just a few weeks time. If you're in the market for a stellar blend of laid back whimsy and vivacious tones, then your next stop is assuredly Rusted Rhythms Vol. 52.

Rusted Rhythms Vol. 52 - Luke Vibert [Submersion Edition]

@Inspect3r

The wide world of electronic productions and experiments often feature more than a few broken rules in service of unique melodies and rhythms, but a few especially audacious producer-DJs have a fondness for breaking every rule in the book. Pushing waves of criss-crossed genres and impulsive blends from behind the decks, Philadelphia's Inspect3r has made a veritable career out of illicit combinations, bootlegs, flips, and outrageous mid-set selections. In anticipation for his next nose dive into dance floor absurdity, the Rust and Submersion are proud to host a 1 hour Inspect3r mix for the 53rd edition of Rusted Rhythms.

Getting familiar with Inspect3r's DJ style is a full-time course in the long arc of electronic music; there's no start and end point to his interests, just whatever happens to catch his ears in the immediate moment. Translated onto the stage and into the mix, and you're treated to top notch DJ fundamentals and a powerful control over the rhythm of the party. This particular mix features a host of UKG, Jungle, DNB, and other high-octane offerings to keep the body in constant motion. Maintaining impact across the spectrum, moments of rest and respite are few and far between, with virtually every inch of sonic ground littered with rambunctious bass lines and infectious grooves. Whether you're just getting acquainted with Inspect3r, or you're a long time friend and fan of the man, steep yourself in the bombastic journey of Rusted Rhythms Vol. 53.
