Presenting a new mix series : LUBRIKATE YOUR LIVING ROOM.

As I approach my twentieth year of mixing records together, I've been on a mission to widen my musical horizons and explore some of my more fringe interests in greater depth. It took me a little too long to realise it, but presenting myself to the world as purely a techno artist was actually chipping away at my happiness. I think a big part of that was realising that I had put myself definitively in a box, and was spending the vast majority of my time listening to a very narrow musical cross-section. Some fantastic experiences and lasting friendships came with it, and I achieved some long-held dreams along the way, but I've decided that now is the time to express myself more freely and open myself up to more collaboration and community building.

But what exactly is Lubrikant? Essentially,  it's a way of sharing my knowledge and experience with some of the people I've met along the way by opening the door to collaboration and using my platform to share some of the brilliant musical minds that I've met over the years. 

The new series 'Lubrikate Your Living Room' will be a repository for some of my own mixes, and i'll also be inviting artists (and non-artists!) to express themselves without limitations of expectation, genre-strictures or time-limits. My hope is that, over time, this series will present a full-spectrum cornucopia of sonic possibility. And by inviting from a deep and wide pool, the possibilities for cross- pollination and new discoveries are practically endless. 

I invite my guests to follow their hearts and challenge their own patterns or any concept of audience expectation. The modern world and its precision engineered algorithms are very effective at keeping us in neat boxes and interminable feedback-loops, to be pre-packaged and sold to. I'm hoping this series can go some way towards breaking those chains and opening some minds along the way, including my own. I'd appreciate your support in helping me to spread the word as i get the series off the ground. Casper x

Whilst they have called Berlin their home since 2010, our own halls in Canning Town do not feel complete without the presence of @s_ruston. A relationship that began long before we welcomed our first guest; S Ruston has been with us every step of our journey, and now they return to play at RE:SISTANCE 004.

The Bristolian’s natural jungle & drum and bass roots shine through in their music; a sensory overload fully-stocked with rapid, bassy selections and interlaced with old school UK rave. These riotous performances are seen most commonly in the German capital’s sex-positive party scene, with residencies at femme-forward Lecken and clubs Renate and Else, yet they frequently take time to revisit our home in East London, with each occasion cherished. 

We are now releasing S Ruston’s ‘Sensory Overloard Mix’ recorded live at UNFOLD XXXVI. This is now available to listen to on our FOLD SoundCloud, via the link in our bio.

The full lineup for RE:SISTANCE 004 is:

Both residents of legendary London nightlife institution, FOLD, the mix is recorded live from the 57th edition of their Sunday UNFOLD club series. An ambient and forward thinking mix that transcends into higher BPM's and rolling Techno.

!!! HIGH NRG !!!

UNFOLD LX - WET MESS STEAM ROOM MIX

Under the cover of his extra-terrestrial pseudonym, UFO95’s powerful rhythms are the culmination of a life lived around music in many forms. One could say he’s come full circle: as the son of parents who lived above the nightclub they owned and ran when he was younger. Adolescent forays in rock led him to study sound engineering, and eventually right back to the dancefloor, where he now plays exclusively live sets patchworked together from his own productions. From unorthodox beginnings, Killian Vaissade has more than grown into his role. UFO95 is his pandemic-era brainchild, a project that’s taken off at breakneck speed, collaborative works with Mama Told Ya label-boss Anetha, an appearance on Amniote Editions x Mala Junta’s VA compilation and the launch of his very own ARCHIVE imprint (June 2023) just a few of the feats he’s managed to pull off in his short career. Expect more to come in the form of driving, adamantine beats. Bassiani Podcast 187 is every bit the furious, impassioned sound his fans have come to expect, an hour of chaotic and thrilling techno that will have you on the edge of your seat.

LUBRIKATE YOUR LIVING ROOM
Episode 2 - 'Remember Yesterday' by Ilan (Night City Life)

WORDS FROM ILAN
"Didn't Time Sound Sweet Yesterday" - Scott Walker

WORDS FROM CASPER
'Remember Yesterday' is a pensive, at times almost elegiac selection of home-listening beauties which have been carefully put together and mixed (with vinyl only) by a dab-hand selector who I've had the pleasure to know for quite some time. Ilan has become known more recently for his synth-driven 'Night City Life' compilations of forgotten and obscure gems, distributed via the Spacetalk label, but we first met on or around the dancefloor of his erstwhile Hypnotic Tango events in various London basements, which he ran alongside my close friend Olly Fas. He's quietly developed a reputation over the years as somebody that goes the extra mile to source weird and wonderful music of a generally upbeat nature, which is befitting of the weird and wonderful chap with a generally upbeat nature that Ilan undoubtedly is.

As with all of the forthcoming mixes in this series, please give it a chance and listen without prejudice. There's no tracklist this time around.

LUBRIKATE YOUR LIVING ROOM

Episode 01 - 'Gradually & Then Suddenly' by Casper Clark

Synopsis : I was listening to some mixes by a recent discovery of mine, Kyle Toole, and felt compelled to start grouping some records from my collection into a playlist. As the list began to burgeon, it seemed to be taking on something of a downtempo, you might even say trip-hoppy flavour. Listening to the playlist took me back to being a young teenager in the living room of my childhood home. My Dad was in the grip of an ecstasy-fuelled midlife crisis and would be near-constantly playing Kruder & Dorfmeister’s ‘K&D Sessions’, bootleg Buddha Bar CDs, Leftfield’s ‘Leftism’, The Beloved’s ‘Conscience’ and various William Orbit and Fluke records. I realised over the years what a profound influence this time had on my eventual obsession with electronic music, especially of the deep and transcendent variety. I think there’s a misconception at times that all music that fell under the chill-out banner was somehow banal or wallpaper muzak, but that’s not the way that I see it at all. Hopefully you’ll agree once you’ve listened to this mix, a near 3 and a half hour journey.

LUBRIKATE YOUR LIVING ROOM
Episode 3 -‘Moist Philosopher’ by S. Ruston

WORDS FROM S. RUSTON
A mix of artists I’ve admired for a minute, artists I’ve just discovered, clever friends doing bits, lighting a candle for lost comrades, thoughts on a genocide, small moments of joy, long lost lovers, soothing the nervous system. A prayer.

WORDS FROM CASPER
It’s an honour to welcome the super-talented Sophie to Lubrikate Your Living Room, and they've evidently gone the extra mile to curate a sonically rich and emotional journey for us. We were recently brought together by the passing of a dearly departed friend and fellow rave traveller, Peter Kirk (AKA The Outlaws) and the subsequent ‘megamorial’ that we collectively threw in his honour. This past week, we travelled together en masse to the Birkenhead Day Of The Dead to lay a brick in the KLF’s People’s Pyramid in his honour. We'd like to dedicate this mix to his memory, and invite you to seek solace in the beautifully contemplative mood the mix evokes.

Solomun appears as the first and primary DJ for the GTA Online Protagonists Nightclub and is resident from 24 July to 31 July 2018.

As part of the initial setup for their club, Tony Prince sends the player and English Dave to LSIA to pick up Solomun who is due to arrive on a private jet. The pilot passes out just as the plane is approaching and Solomun takes the controls and crash-lands at Sandy Shores Airfield while the player chases the jet in Tony's Schafter V12. During the course of his role, the player will engage in promoting their club with advertisements of Solomun hosting the club event, such as the large Blimp with Solomun advertising.
