Name: Feena (@feena_mmm)
Pronouns: she/her
Location: Edinburgh, Scotland

Influences: Is there a difference between influences and inspirations? They merge together in my head. DMZ, 2008-10ish dubstep, Big Apple Records, Swamp81, UK dance music. Lots of new dubstep and adjacent forward thinking heavy bass sounds being made & promoted by folk like Carré, Beatrice M., Mia Koden, Woozy, Amity, Pressure Dome, Femme Bass Mafia and loads more. Headset club night and label, which consistently promotes incredible Scottish dance music. Shoegaze, 90s grunge, punk & hardcore, my sister’s and my dad’s music tastes, grime, club culture. Underground Solu’shn (Edinburgh’s longest running dance music record shop) and the team there, who furthered my musical education every shift. My colleagues at EHFM, and other insanely talented, forthright, imaginative and driven pals. Club Sylkie, Plant Bass’d. Everybody who does a show on EHFM, or any community radio. Creative development as personal growth, and vice versa. 

Affiliations/Residencies/Projects: I co-run EHFM, Edinburgh’s Community Radio, with a class team of people. We just celebrated 5 years of broadcasting! I also co-run Miss World, a bi-monthly club night at Sneaky Pete’s.

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community: Find authentic people who nurture and inspire you. Be gracious for opportunities and help offered, and do the same for others. Don’t be so scared to be shit at something that you don’t try. 

About the mix: 
Some favourite dubstep, breaks & bass tracks old and new, with a wee bit of 4x4 and grime. Been really enjoying the 150 dubstep/half time things coming out recently. I’ve also included some Scottish artists everyone should know about.

I wanted to show my appreciation for dancefloor-focused club music with more an emphasis on bass-heavy styles connecting the links between disparate genres to create a mix that sonically makes sense. I love Mixing genres such as Tech House & Techno whilst also playing Drill and Dubstep, there are links everywhere you just have to find them, the rest will follow.

I think my earliest memories are listening to Hardcore tapes from raves my parents used to go to as well as my dad's pals mixes, my whole childhood has been electronic music. My understanding of the music came from a very wholesome place but being young and  raised in a farming town I was cut off from these scenes. Getting the chance as I've grown older to live in different cities I have jumped at the chance to experience different music scenes whether it has been in  Hull,Newcastle or now London.

I started producing about 11 years ago now, my process has changed multiple times since then. I don't come from a musical background which has been a blessing and as curse as I have found ways of making music non musically which I feel gives me an edge of approaching my productions from a unique angle. This approach is sometimes very long and frustrating but overall I can make something that sounds fresh and new to my ears and thats what I think electronic music is about at the end of the day.

Crack Mix 571: Lukid

Simon Aussel is known for a particularly wild DJing style and leftfield bassy bangers, and it's his curious and playful approach to clubland that's won him loyal fans over the years. Whether photographing drink tokens from gigs or creating an 8-bit version of his debut album on a Game Boy cartridge, he seems to approach every endeavour with childlike joy and wonder—rare qualities in an industry that can leave so many jaded.

The Nantes-born, Paris-based artist's love of club culture, digging and world-building has set him on a blazing path in club music. He's released an exceptionally wide range of music, including a Memphis rap tape for Trilogy Tapes, dubstep-trap-jazz hybrids with Egyptian singer Abdullah Miniawy and deadly hard drum for Livity Sound. His mixes, meanwhile, are fast becoming DJ lore thanks to his knack for connecting seemingly opposed genres like new wave and fast techno. Look no further than his now-infamous Dekmantel Selectors set from 2021 or a marathon back-to-back with Skee Mask in 2022. 

As the French DJ gets more comfortable with story-telling, he's getting more personal and focusing on deeper, slower sounds. That's evident on this RA Podcast—six months in the works—which incorporates woozy downtempo, weighty dub and bleepy beats. Of course, in the chaotic middle section there's plenty of huge basslines, plus old-school electro, acidic techno and even a bouncy edit of the Montell Jordan classic "This Is How We Do It." Showcasing his quirks, influences and growth, this is Simo Cell in prime time.
