Val Vashar At The Seed
Mo:Dem Mutations V.2, 22.08.2021. 

After almost two years with no gigs and the fact I was playing the closing set of a two-week event, it would be gullible to expect a technically perfect set. Truth be told I was never technically a perfect DJ, I always compensated with passion and enthusiasm for music. 

I will quote Fontaines DC and emphasize that "love is the main thing". So, here are three hours of music I love, from trance to techno with psychedelic and hypnotic flavour. 
Shout-out to Marco Shuttle for releasing a techno track I can mix with Electrypnose. And apologies to Viagra Boys for destroying their "Just like you" song.

Peace, love, empathy; #ValVashar

[ Trivia ] 
I borrowed my signature / slogan “Peace. Love. Empathy.” from Kurt Cobain’s suicide note. It’s no secret that I was a big fan of Nirvana even before the tragic end of the band's frontman. However, the idea to use the three-word signature was inspired by Michel Iseneld, who signed his Ntogn project with "Body. Mind. Spirit." I was pleased with the positive and practical effect of my signature and even more so with the fact that people labeled me as a hippie because they didn't know about the suicide reference. As a matter of fact, I used the same three-word formula for Mo:Dem Festival and its slogan "Love. Passion. Commitment."

EMIRI - Modem Festival 2022 The Swamp

Among many crazy and funny things I said (and did) this summer, one sentence glued to my mind: 

LIFE IS A WONDERFUL THING TO WASTE! 

I meant this in a sense of "how much of ourselves are we willingly suffocating to maintain the image THEY have imposed on us so that we can develop, progress and move freely?" Life's too short to maintain that image. Live your life the way you want. Your life is only yours, and if it makes you happy to "waste it", well it's yours to waste!

* Music genre of the mix:

After five or six years I played (almost only) a deep techno set at The Swamp, Mo:Dem Festival. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.

In my process of overthinking I labeled my style of (writing and) DJ-ing as BRICOLAGE /ˌbrɪkəˈlɑːʒ/. In the arts, bricolage (French for DIY or do-it-yourself) is "the construction or creation of a work from a diverse range of things that happen to be available, or a work constructed using mixed media." This definition fully and realistically corresponds to what I'm creating, whether it is a text or a DJ set. This definition also fits my punk philosophy and aesthetics.

Peace, love, empathy; #ValVashar

Art shouldn't be only a temptation for a world of ideals. There should be something dirty, something uneven, something merely human..

In this mix CAPTAIN PASTEK showcases his unique and heavy psychedelic-techno sound! After playing in the psygressive and darkprog scene for a few years, Theo now explores hybridization between techno and psytrance. He brings together what he prefers in both worlds and creates his own universe. He wants to break away with the classic psytechno and move towards something deeper, heavier, faster and more industrial. His music is a subtle mix of rumble kicks, psychedelic atmospheres, sharp leads and mystic melodies.

His base is Zenon Records where he works as a label DJ.

Raised on hardcore punk ethics, he is deeply rooted in the underground scene, and still applies the same principles to his DJ career and work.
