Description: Working on some new music to play live using saved projects from different pieces of gear across the past couple years :)

Here is BMG at 9AM at No Way Back 2022, bridging the sounds after Erika and directly before Mike Servito, who was closing the party afterwards. In his own words: “It’s a very special time of the party, the sun has come up and there is total mental and physical freedom. Performing in this in-between time with 4 CDJs and a Model 1 with a Moog Delay pedal for effects is an amazing dream context, the first No Way Back after the lockdown. This time of night allowed me to explore all the sides of the power of being spaced out and feeling the thunder of the music, bouncing between genres and melding a new sound system music that references sonic hypnosis and liberation in its so many forms, something that could only happen at No Way Back. To be in this space together and sharing this new era together just felt totally magical, I felt cleansed afterwards, the set really reflects these feelings in the moment. Highlights include the world debut of Neel’s “Disco Quarantine”, Gay Marvine’s edit of “On the Run” by Pink Floyd, Ron Hardy’s edit of the Trammps “Soul Searchin' Time (Check Out Your Mind)”, new and upcoming music for IT.” Mastered by Jim Gibbons of AVS.

BMG playing the Made In Detroit Stage, Saturday of Movement 2014, directly before DBX live.

BMG - Made In Detroit Stage, Movement 2014

Sometime after dawn, in my favorite warehouse in Detroit – the Tangent – I got to play my favorite party filled with all my favorite DJs – No Way Back. It felt like the time for the party to take a deep breath and refill its lungs. Playing directly after Patrick Russell and right before Erika, I took the moment to give the party what I felt it needed. First, rays of light, and then expansions and contractions in the sound. 

For the technique, I played on a Model One mixer with a Moog MF Delay pedal and 4 CDJs. Much of the music is upcoming on Interdimensional Transmissions, or things I have recorded in and remastered for DJing, especially to be played on the giant Jim Gibbons rig in this room, a process I call “quick masters” or “QM” for short. Some are very rare, some have never been playable in this context, or lost gems by my heroes, like CH BB. Some are new jams being played for the first time, like “Another Planet” where I jammed with Neel in his studio in Rome this spring on my 608 (modified 606) and 303. My favorite approach to NWB is to compose new music for it and test it there, it is such a special room. 

Recorded at 6am to 7:30am sometime in the wormhole of May 28, 2023 at No Way Back, day 2 of Return to the Source.

"I’ve known rivers:
I’ve known rivers ancient as the world and older than the flow of human blood in human veins.
My soul has grown deep like the rivers."

I haven't put out an ambient mixtape in a long time, so i'm glad to be sharing this deep listening journey. 
It was recorded live for the sweetest seated / lying down, attentive, & entranced audience in Berlin's cutest queer listening bar "Kwia", for the Femme Bass Mafia Crew.

Live at Kremwerk, Sunrise at SLIP [06/29/2025]

Anthony "Shake" Shakir is a rare kind of Detroit Techno living legend - he is an authentic iconoclast. He co-wrote "I Believe" with Octave One for Transmat, was the first Detroit artist to work with breakbeats for his "5% Solution" record for Metroplex / Interface, is on the 1988 Virgin Detroit Techno album, has released on KMS and its subsidiaries, edited the early Carl Craig tunes Psyche "Elements" and BFC "Galaxy" for Transmat and Fragile respectively, won The Electrifyin' Mojo's mix contest "The Mixodrome" while still in high school, and taught Claude Young to DJ before they formed a label called Frictional that Shake still helms. At our March 17, 2018 party "Midwest Freaks" where we celebrated some of the Midwest's finest iconoclasts, Shake delivered a blistering ode to all the edges and possibilities of Detroit Techno. You can catch Shake at Tresor.313 in Detroit on May 26, 2018, the first day of 313: Return to the Source.

Freerotation 2018 : The House Of Crocodiles (Live Recording)

Here is BMG rocking it after Eris Drew's No Way Back inaugural set, May 26, 2019. In his own words: "It was my extreme pleasure to follow Eris Drew’s propulsive debut at No Way Back, and to contrast it with another thunderously powerful take on the psychedelic vision of this party, transforming her vibrant energy into a deeply cathartic and transcendent groove, showing how many sides of the prism are contained within this, feels almost infinite."

Today we launch our Samhain XX weekly podcast series, with archives of all the sets performed during the streaming event. We begin the series with a set from BMG.

video: https://youtu.be/gxDV5W7C9hI
 
BMG on Samhain:
"It's the Celtic holiday that Halloween spawns from. It was the loop point, the new year. Ancient people dealt with grey areas in strange ways, the change between years caused this loose period existing between the end and beginning. This is where it gets interesting: they believed dimensions were colliding in a sort of interdimensional crosstalk, where the planes of the living and the dead were touching, so the dead could walk the earth. A way to convene with your ancestors, and a great reason to burn fires and scare your friends and neighbors. There's way more to it, most of it can't be written, it can only be felt, which is usually elusive but somehow easy at this time of year."
 
The original recurring party for Interdimensional Transmissions is Samhain, celebrating the ancient Celtic holiday that acknowledges the loop point of time, and the origin of IT. Had there not been Covid-19 the plan killer, we would have had the 20th anniversary of this party in Detroit, with Eris Drew headlining. As it stood, we celebrated Samhain XX with an over the top stream celebrating so many facets that we find fascinating, a place for total immersion into interesting music and cutting edge thoughts for a whole weekend at our favorite time of year. This was broadcast continuously for over 30 hours on October 31 — November 1, 2020. 
 
If the world is going to burn, this is what we want to hear, who we want to be surrounded by. Thank you so much to every artist for sharing your art and musical vision. And thank you to Jim Gibbons (AVS) for mastering all the audio, Andrew Charles Edman for the psychedelic visuals and all the art layers from Amber Gillen. And thank you to @thebunkerny for hosting the stream.
