Portable Feat. Lcio - Surrender (Kosi Edit) [from DJ Koze - DJ-Kicks]

To close out the month of October, we have a highly anticipated special treat in store for you… One of London’s finest, now based in Berlin, Georgia Girl aka GG. Meeting on the Romanian ocean-side during Sunwaves music festival in 2014 was no surprise as this lady has an obvious pair of well trained ears, making her underground knowledge very distinctive and her own personal sound as a DJ very unique. Having worked at one of London's most loved record stores (Blackmarket Records) for over 6 years and with an particular enthusiasm for vinyl, she was a valuable member of staff and asset to the store. It really is no wonder that Georgia has had the pleasure to play at underground institutions such as fabric and Club der Visionaere. Currently a resident for London’s notorious after-party, Keep on Going and with various guest bookings around the globe, she regularly plays alongside other talented artists and is highly regarded amongst her peers. Prepare for the next hour and a half as GG takes you on a journey through some of the most intriguing realms of underground House & Techno ☽ ☯ ♬

MOUTH TO MOUTH 10:

The original single came about during a very productive week for me. I made 5 songs in in 7 days right before one of the early DEMF festivals in Detroit. There was a great energy being shared by a lot of artists then, and I had just returned from a two week tour of Europe where I was ingesting so much new music. I sat down at my studio in Detroit and tried to recreate what I was hearing in the clubs. Mouth to Mouth was the stand out track of that session, and I made the entire thing in a few hours. I recorded it mostly live, tweaking and building the synths and muting/unmuting the channels in real time and just recording the result. I cleaned it up a little bit afterward, but left the length and overall arrangement intact. I remember playing it for a few people right away and it was clear something special was happening. There is something meditative in the simple repetition and slow build of it all. 

For this remix package, I chose every remixer. I went to my close friends, favourite remixers, and people I have always respected. There is such a diverse spread of talent with these artists, I knew every remix would be completely different. Each remix represents a different side of techno, which is where all of these artists come from. Everyone put a piece of themselves into this, and I'll forever be grateful to them for contributing to the project.

Off World • "Wonder Farm"

Emerging from Detroit's vibrant DIY underground scene, Matthew Dear's Audion project has been feeding off the energy reverberating from dancefloors across the UK and Europe, but with a sound and spirit that is uniquely his own. Described as "techno in its purest sense", Audion now returns with his first album in a decade that embodies this ethos.

Forthcoming on !K7, Alpha is a collective body of work that was brought to life by Audion in a mere matter of weeks, coming at a defining moment in the artist's life. The mind bending "Destroyer" stands out in its warped, cyclical grandeur. Its distorted synth and tenacious bass provides listeners with the full bodied dancefloor flavour they have so eagerly anticipated. A highlight moment of Alpha – which stands as a visceral ode to the vibrancy of our global dance culture.

No sleep until Alpha drops. Catch it on 10 June.

Audion "Destroyer" - Boiler Room Debuts

Karen Gwyer joins DBA for an exercise in futurist dancefloor electronics after a recent outing on Alien Jams alongside Beatrice Dillon and last year’s barnstorming Nous release. The US-born Londoner brings the sound of her stomping, analogue live performances closer to the psychedelic, thickly melodic tone of her studio compositions across three tracks, with Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase an obvious choice for DJs.

Following early feet-finding yet highly acclaimed releases on Patten’s Kaleidoscope label and No Pain In Pop, Gwyer has gone on to solidify her place in the quasi-underground techno scene with more acclaimed recordings on labels such as Nous Disques, Alien Jams and Opal Tapes, for which she toured twice. She has also produced remixes for the likes of Nous, Warp, Software and Public Information, and created a number of commissioned pieces for Open Music Archive.

Privately-issued New Age/Psychedelic gems from 1980 and 1984, revived and reissued by Leaving Records. The two tapes are duplicated exactly as they were originally released, with 6-panel j-cards containing extensive liner notes. The tapes are bundled in a midnight blue & gold sleeve, and come with immediate digital download. 

“In 1980 several unique events prompted me to jump from the edge of my known world into other spaces and other places… during the early 1980’s each year I chose a vision or theme and created a work of music based upon it.

One of the many things that made working on the SunPath music compositions so interesting and compelling is that in order to evoke visual images I would spend considerable time searching for specific sounds. To do that I constructed many different kinds of instruments and devices - the following details some of this process and how I combined these acoustical sounds electronically to create a blend of music not really describable from either medium - all treated with experimental tape-transferring to induce artifact and generation of overtone sequences.

*Prophet synthesizer *Silver flute electronically processed *Peyote ceremony water drum *Self-built & chromatically cut glass *Aluminum and brass chime bars *Bass viol *Self built wire-strung harp *Rebuilt/retuned cedar flute *Mexican dove ocarina *Chromatically tuned sitar  *Field recordings of two Colorado streams: one outdoors & one inside a cave *A field recording of a raging snowstorm captured under a full moon outside of the cabin window *Divine intervention 

In the years that followed, I became more acutely aware of walking upon the borderline of other dimensions of reality. Even as I write at this moment if I step outside into the snow and look at a single pine needle or twig, it glows and shimmers as if flickering in and out of the solid reality we most normally inhabit. Everything in the natural world has this quality and I am most perplexed and astounded at every moment of my being.”

Taken from Carlton Melton's new Smoke Drip 12", and in time for the summer solstice

Carlton Melton - Smoke Drip

„Amygdala“ is Koze’s Sgt. Pepper. It’s an unreal 78-minute walk through Koze’s mind, complete with moods, intensities, sounds and scenes as yet unheard of. It feels more like a double album, urging you to turn over and change the records time and time again. "Amygdala" amazes by its sheer musicality, deepness, and its  ethereal sound design; it’s a kaleidoscope of a great variety of soundscapes where you keep discovering new nuances even after listening to it a thousand times. Nobody else could unite artists like Caribou and Dirk von Lotzow, Hildegard Knef and Mathew Dear, Ada and Milosh in such an organic way and on one and the same record as Koze did. There’s never been anything like it.

He weaves new garments around the a capella parts of his guests, garments that only he can tailor, and that’s how the album, for all the diversity of its artists, sounds consistently homogeneous and in the true style of Kosi Kos. It’s all about “the courage to dare”, about letting voices resonate undisguised in all their authentic peculiarity.  About creating  truthfulness.

How much can you cut out, when does the flame die down? On the other hand, under which circumstances could it even burn for ever?

The album, which in large parts has been composed in a Spanish fishing village, starts off with Balinese gamelan sounds from which a relaxed discoid bass peels off, caressed by mystic backwards basslines, balafon resonances and slide guitar chords. You can hear the ceaseless chirping, twittering and cheeping from all the treetops of Koze's exotic jungle.
