Recorded 3rd December 2013 for XLR8R Podcast episode 324, XLR8R said at the time:

The calendar only flipped to December a few days ago, but it seems that much of the music world has already begun to set its sights on the end of the year. More specifically, everyone seems to be looking back at the last 11 months and evaluating what pieces of music were amongst the year’s best. XLR8R is no different, and when our list of 2013’s best releases surfaces during the next few weeks, there’s little question that Amygadla, the long-awaited sophomore LP from DJ Koze, will make the cut. It’s been a big year for the veteran German producer, which is why we thought he would be an excellent candidate to put together the final XLR8R podcast of 2013. Over the past decade, DJ Koze has built up a reputation as a sort of lovable oddball, and this exclusive mix will do nothing to contradict that image. Much like his own work, the podcast is loosely rooted in house and techno, but its 70-plus minutes of music also reaffirm that Koze isn’t someone who’s afraid to color outside the lines. Armed with a playful spirit and a genuine sense of humor, Koze seems as comfortable dropping esoteric spoken word and bizarre outtakes from Marvin Gaye as he does stringing together warm slices of rich, organic house music. Oh yeah, he also manages to slip in a couple of conscious hip-hop tracks along the way. In short, it’s not the average podcast, but it’s not like we expected something “normal” with DJ Koze at the helm.

DJ Koze - XLR8R Podcast #324

More sounds for train stations. Work in progress

Preparing my set 裏 Yamanote in this dream studio at @jingumaebonobo Tokyo. I am making one song for each station of the Yamanote line. Trying to capture a Japan-inspired sound.

I am now, for the first time, using a variety of AI tools to help me create the tracks. I will write about the process later. But basically, I am composing the first 30 seconds of the songs manually and then asking the AI to continue the compositions using text prompts like:

"Japan train sounds. Field recordings. Dolby Atmos. Production. Folktronica. Minimal classical. krautrock. tape loops. polyrhythms. swing. 808 groove. breaks. Eastern"

I've noticed it's quite fun to make dub inspired music with AI because the glitches sound like they are on purpose.

Prompt: Japan train sounds. Field recordings. Dolby Atmos. Production. Folktronica. Minimal classical. krautrock. tape loops. polyrhythms. swing. 808 groove. breaks. Eastern

Negative Prompt: Western, Pop (apart from the k-pop part around Shin-Okubo station)

裏 Yamanote - Convenience store - Shabu Shabu restaurant - Please be Careful

Saying somethings progressive is like telling someone they need to wait until the end.. any way, here's some progressive tracks I made in 2008 when my patience and tracks were longer...

INFO & TRACKLIST

Last month I was in Copenhagen playing at Strom Festival & caught Surgeon playing a live modular set at God Goes Deep. He totally hypnotised the church with these droney, minimal, ice-cold tones, I fell asleep leaning against the wall and was roused by spooky dialogue some time later. The sense of space and timing was really powerful and i had that in mind when choosing music for this set.

Again, this is a mix of line out and microphone recordings, so you can get a feel for this amazing space. 

Hope you enjoy <3 Claire

Next up on Viscera, Parisian dynamic duo Vox Low tear up our airwaves in signature style.

Staying close to our Viscera hearts, Benoit Raymond & Jean Christophe Couderc always know how to hit the sweet spot. Their distinctive Synthwave-Techno-Psychedelic Rock sound has landed them on labels such as Correspondant and Höga Nord Rekords and we just can’t get enough.

Tune in for a carefully curated selection of thundering bass-lines, electric acidic arpeggios, synth wave and post punk dance-floor madness. Perfect to tide you over while you sit itching for their album due in 2018.
