Hi and Welcome to ITALO MODERNI mixes.

Starting the weekend with our local hero Serkin aka 1985 @serkinmusic we can listen a mix influenced by the most mystical electro and with very catchy strings, we always like to support local talent and Serkin has spent many years supporting artists in the electronic scene. Boss from Celobert Festival has brought Adrian Marth to play on Live set in its last edition. It is a pleasure to listen to this mix made expressly for IM and on vinyl. Have a good weekend!

Bio Serkin aka 1985:
Almost two decades after his initial foray into the Barcelona underground scene, Kevin Schwantz has maintained the same vision of electronics as fuel for social change.

He currently started his own label called Tourian records. The first release was produced under his new alias 1985, there are already two references that you can find and for the next few months a new release will come out, it has a great alliance where there will be collaborations with artists such as Spear, Pablo Leon, Dark Vektor, Mynationshit, The Bandit, Pelacha or The Zenobit3.

It has also been released on well-known labels such as Redsonja Records, which has just released in its last release on vinyl, a track titled “Something in the Sky” for Visionary02 with Pelacha, Error Etica and Trømmel, obtaining feedbacks from well-known artists of the scene. world.
Other labels where you can also hear his work are Solemne Records (Uk / Nottingham) with two appearances in their VA and a full Ep on the way. There is also Voko records (Ibiza) or the Dutch label run by the well-known DJ and producer from Eindhoven, Gideon, LessisMore Recordings.

At the same time, after his Techno project under the pseudonym Serkin, he continues to be involved in the management and planning of events for the Technodrome Barcelona collective that he has represented since 2009 and with which he fights against all odds to present, in accordance with his ideals and principles, a musical alternative above all for the city of Barcelona and with serious content with a very authentic and original “underground” base in its programs.

In recent years it is when he rethinks his project, giving birth to a lot of material and with total constancy inside and outside the studio, a firmer projection. At national and international level, Kevin has performed in such special and emblematic places as Tresor Club (Berlin), Stardust Club x DVST (Madrid), Le Rachdingue (Figueres), United Club (Turin), Apolo or Moog Club (Barcelona) where Its Technodrome nights are maintained and prosperous, other places also essential in our scene such as Garage of The Bass Valley (Barcelona) or Razzmatazz / The Loft (Barcelona), in addition to having an agenda that is expanding with sessions inside and outside our country in the next few months.

His work as a graphic designer with a degree in illustration and comics broadens his artistic spectrum and the versatility that characterizes him, with various jobs that he occupies creating "covers" and designing graphics for different agencies in projects of different cultural nature.

Finally, together with the support of his regular partners, he directs and manages the Celobert festival, experimental electronic music days focused on supporting and promoting the many artists who have left the recent and emerging national scene, focused on releasing and promoting art. less seen but with a wide content where in addition to the pampered, selective or far-fetched and original program, sound and visual design and the plastic arts go hand in hand in varied projects with common links with a very broad approach and with a focus on new proposals that grow in our country and that are of a cultural, rich and above all very important interest for the local musical ecosystem where the festival was born and developed.

Great Minds Think Alike, would be a good argument to define the merger of the two minds behind Immaterial, the eleventh release by HC Records, signed by Siarem, a producer from Albacete who previously starred in the label's third release, and Estrato Aurora, legendary Valencian musician former member of Lontano, Pajaro Dune and Mini Service. Both have found a complicity and joint impulse that have brought their creative character together in this fruitful union.

Navigating the dunes of the planet Arrakis has never been so delightful, since Peace, the track with which the record begins, takes us to dreamlike landscapes of infinite horizons in which a deep intimacy develops along the way. A warm broken rhythm, relying on a hypnotic and thick bass, leads the development while being wrapped in multiple sound layers in which velvety pads, melancholic synths and pulsating keys caress our ears like raindrops, thus recreating a mysterious atmosphere typical of unexplored universes, advancing towards the second part of the song, where a second group of harmonies answer and complement the main ones generating a genuine electronic ode.

The second part of our dreamy journey reaches with Teleonomia, an exercise in sound synaesthesia that projects a golden and brilliant musical landscape in which a succession of harmonic sound layers and robust bass lines intertwine with surgical precision around a broken rhythm with a firm and surrounding impact.

The B-side of the vinyl takes us out of our reverie with the pure, and at the same time evolved, EBM by Siarem, a concept that Deeper Side exudes. This one is a track that reminds us of the best B-sides of the pioneers of the Belgian sound but with the sharpness and definition of the 21st century. Rugged basses and gritty voices encouraging urban combat. This track was chosen by Techno Baron Dave Clarke on his White Noise show to kick off 2021.

The influence of the American sounds that arrived in Valencia at the end of the 80's leave their mark on La base Medi, much more than the typical dj-tool with which to wreak havoc in the dance floor. A forceful bass drum in line with unsyncopated cadences, a dominant bass and a multitude of percussions of different nature in almost six minutes of infectious hypnotic dance.

In My Dreams gives the finishing touch to this release by delving into the helical gliding compositions inspired by 70's psychedelia, inducing the listener into a complex trance state close to nirvana.

400 ppm is the first of the digital bonus tracks that accompany the vinyl, an exercise in hypnotism and rhythmic meditation built on the basis of enveloping frequencies and a marked and devastating broken rhythm. The second and last broadside in digital format arrives with Vectors, a sidereal trip to the beat of crystalline electro charged with emotion and reflection. Quite a potential anthem.

DIGITAL BONUS 2 Siarem - Vectors

Glasgow has always been closely associated with techno - from the heady days of the 90's through to the present, the city has always loved the harder side of the dance.

Nemoa and VXYX are two DJ's emerging from the city's underground presenting futuristic, fast paced, hard dance music with their own spin. they've each cut their teeth over the years running and dj'ing at parties across the city and have found a home at La Cheetah where VXYX launched a party called Eutony and Neoma plays as a resident.

Over the coming weeks we will spotlight a number of local artists from across the city who will be performing at Riverside Festival. Neoma and VXYX will be a special back to back set on the banks of the River Clyde and by the sounds of this mix it's set to be a hard, relentless affair.

Just how we like it...

A los dieciséis años forma parte de la plantilla de la discoteca Studio 54, nutriéndose de todas las sesiones de Classic House de Raúl Orellana. A los dieciocho dio un gran giro musical y frecuentó locales como Psicodromo y Verdi donde se escuchaba Dark Wave, Gothic Wave, EBM y guitarreo. Sus grandes referentes musicales, fueron sus amigos Toni Baidez y Enrique Bagen. Ellos le hablaban de grupos como Little Nemo, Trisomie 21, B.f.g o Pankow y le grababan cintas.

La inspiración por pinchar no vino hasta sólo hace seis años, ya que fue la influencia de una pareja que tenía platos, eso hizo q no dudase en querer unos para ella. Eternamente agradecida a David Lost, su maestro, el que le dedicó su tiempo para enseñarle.

En tan sólo un par de meses el DJ Javi Level, la hizo partícipe para abrir las fiestas Disorder junto a los mejores DJs de época Remember. Actualmente Alice continúa en Disorder como residente, ha participado en las fiestas Bacalao con Lluís Costa y David Lost, acompaña a Abadie en las post-parties de conciertos como Nitzer Ebb, Front 242 o Invisible Limits y fiestas ocasionales.

“Divine Lust” by Electrosexual
Release date: Friday, 27th May (across all DSPs)
(original score commissioned by Anthony de Bono of the short film that recently had its debut screening at Kantine am Berghain)
Details from the recent Berghain debut screening events:
www.berghain.berlin/en/event/72693  [EN]  ||  www.berghain.berlin/de/event/72693  [DE]

About the recent debut Berlin debut screening event:

Natürlich, the event that served as the debut presentation of this project, took  place in the magical city of Berlin: the chosen home to the artist & the breeding ground of this intimate insight into the creative community that has enabled him to grow and develop in his personal artistic journey. 

The event included multiple screenings of the short film and additionally:
The first preview & pop-up installation of the fashion collection 
Music for the evening provided by Electrosexul (aka Romain Frequency)
Exclusive new choreography delivered by Kevin Bo
An overall celebratory energy and a sense of community spirit that will naturally lend itself to all sorts of spontaneous performative moments.

Further plans for future events to present this project in other cities as well as screenings at various upcoming film festivals throughout the remainder of 2022 are in the works.

About the overall DIVINE LUST project:

The overall conceptual design for the project was conceived ahead of the pandemic – following his debut fashion endeavor “Untitled: (BITCH)” – and the film itself was shot at the now-defunct KAKE (part of the complex of DIY studios and event spaces along Ziegrastr. 11 in Neukölln) back in early 2020. The aesthetic design of the pieces of the fashion collection was conceived in late 2019 and fabricated just ahead of the shooting of the short film, but of course the collection of garments that make up this collection now will also include pieces which have been fabricated over the past two years.

DIVINE LUST explores Anthony de Bono's interdisciplinary artistic practice; the ongoing result from this endeavor includes the creation of a short film and a coinciding fashion collection, then the experiential events which will take place to present this project will incorporate Anthony's practice of conceptualizing physical installation pieces, along with his curatorial work and creative direction practices in bringing together collaborators from a collection of diverse folks from his underground queer Berlin community to execute the entirety of each of these one-off event experiences for this project.

In his own words here, Anthony notes specifically about his intentions with the short film: “Creating a visual experience of intimacy and collaboration within Queer culture — with the stark reminder that existence is political.”
