Great set guys. I can remember on the night walking down to the basement looking for someone and then just getting caught up in your set, so I ended up staying downstairs enjoying your tunes right till the end. :)

Inspired by the Detroit legacy, coupled with his own flavour of soulful & futuristic techno, Eddie Hale embodies a rich and revolving sound.
Eddie Hale began exploring electronic music in 2003. Embodied in a heritage of classical to contemporary music, it wasn’t until he engaged in seminal records like Nightmares on Wax – Smoker’s Delight and Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works that the electronic spark was ignited. Eddie was immediately influenced by the cutting-edge 90’s and early 00’s Detroit legacy, followed by a move to Berlin, which, as he recalls “had a big impact on me through the freedom experienced there, but also the heavy ‘Berlin luft’ atmosphere, which I found really moving.”

2008 saw the start of Eddie’s DJ career; as he cut his teeth with house and electro in home town Melbourne. Reflecting on this period, he acknowledges, “those early days really cemented my love for it, being given the opportunity to perform at iconic Australian festivals like Strawberry Fields and Rainbow Serpent.” 2014 saw Eddie travel across the globe to display his hard work in Amsterdam at ADE, a set at Mardi Gras 2017 in Sydney, followed by a 2019 trip to Berlin’s notorious Tresor.

His productions consist of rich, swirling, synthesised chords; raw drum patterns and deep grooves. The Eddie Hale sound is soulful, futuristic and full of energy - filled by techno, breaks and ambience. This versatility, coupled with sound production prowess has inevitably led him to collaborations, projects and releases with some of the finest artists and labels from Berlin to Detroit. Notable mentions include 2015 EP’s on Flash Recordings, and DJ300’s Motech followed by acclaimed cuts on respected imprints Intacto Records and Kevin Saunderson’s classic KMS. More recently, mid2019 saw ‘Ritus’, an alias between Eddie and Ray Kajioka on Swedish label Parabel.

In 2021 Eddie returns with two new cutting-edge techno records on ODD/EVEN, Andre Kronert’s bespoke vinyl label, followed by the launch of record label ‘Denude’ a new special project by Eddie, consisting of vinyl releases, supported by remixes from Joel Mull and TWR72.

It was truly an honor to have the King of groove and founder/owner of Poker Flat, Steve Bug, bringing his envoy of stripped back deep house vibes to techno town.  Our tails were firmly waggin’ four to the paw.... 

An unbelieve moment in time for the yappers who witnessed it.  Please enjoy an hour from his set from CHI WOW WAH TOWN 2018.

Troy Marc & Studious @ 161 Basement - Darkbeat 10 Year Anniversary Album Launch Party (14 June 2013)

For someone who likes dance music, I have a pretty short attention span, and I tend to do a ton of editing on my studio mixes so that tracks are changing over every few minutes. But Flow Sessions' 3.33-minute allowance let me lay off the scissors for once, giving these tracks plenty of space to breathe. I ran all around the hills and groves of electronic music from the last thirty years – there's new age ambience from the nineties in here, low-slung Andy Stott techno, hip hop (from 1996 to 2017), house, classic jungle, Flying Lotus (gets his own genre), and even a bit of folk music. It's the kind of selection that'd make sense in London in the winter, with a gently hopeful melancholy tying it together. But my idea of melancholy is often someone else's idea of euphoria, so if you find this uplifting then that's good too.

A huge thank you to Flow Sessions for setting up this scheme. There's a respect and nurturing spirit behind this thing, and now that the heyday of the mix CD is long gone, any gesture of support towards mix curators is really heartening. 

P.S. Feel free to ask for track IDs in the comments.
