Line and room recording from Apt E's closing set at The Lodge; a weekend-long retreat held annually, deep in the mountains of Central Washington. This recording picks up right where the OFF99 cats left off, beginning around 10:30am and wrapping up sometime past 4pm... Endless love to all the party people who kept it rolling into the afternoon. Truly the best party around, and an honor to close out Apt E style. See ya next time!

@miseryconfusion at Hemlock Nights on Saturday morning.

'For a long time, I felt uncertain about what to play at Honcho for Hemlock Nights. It wasn’t until my friend Kayla (Seelene) asked, “So, you’re just going to play the Bobby afters classics, right?” that I began to break through the doubt. While this set includes a lot of new music for me, I took comfort in the tracks I often share with friends at home. My goal was to create a more intimate and personal space to introduce myself to a new audience.'

Campout Mix Series: 'nohup'

The producer best known as Huerco S. accompanies One Day, our record of the year, with two hours of minimal and dub introspections.

This summer, Kansas-raised DJ and producer Brian Leeds released One Day under his revived Loidis alias. Enamoured with the restrained, loopy sounds of early '00s dance music, the album’s eight tracks linger in the air, luxuriating in dubbed-out chords, swung beats and sub vibrations. It's our favourite record of 2024 for a reason. 

It's a sound he's coined, in his typically teasing fashion, "dub mnml emo tech." All winks aside, it’s no wonder One Day became the soothing balm we all needed. In a scene overwhelmed by hard and fast trends, the softer—and Leeds might argue, more sincere—stylings of minimal and dub techno enjoyed a welcome second wind. 

Not only was One Day one of our favourites of the year (more on that this week), but it also inspired us to break our usual no-repeats rule, inviting Leeds back to the RA Podcast under a different alias after his 2019 turn as Huerco S. 

"The prevailing trends in dance music are more and more maximalist," Leeds noted. "I missed restraint, subtlety, and sensuality." Clocking in at just under two hours, RA.965 embodies that ethos in spades.

A mix from extended naff family members Command D and Peanut

In the words of Command D :

Carrying on from some legendary parties before it, the next generation of ravers held 'plur' true to it's og meaning. Young Harry (Peanut) and I had been mixing together and talking about tunes we loved for months leading up to the event. We played in the side room while the morning light slowly poured in, all the homies in the front and gun fingers to the back. Big party mode with some blissy ones, freedom while it lasted, and a fun one to listen back to. Big thanks to everyone who hosted and the dancers!

Recorded on Wangal land.

Apt E - Weirdos Bush Rave vol 3

*recorded live in Field, ON at Best Out of Town Year 4 (09/01/24)

A sunrise session if there ever was one. As the clouds lifted and muted rays shone along the beach, a cresting dancefloor revealed smiles deep and as wide as musa’s sonic palette. Sounds tactile and effervescent, reminding us what’s worth holding onto.

the 11th entry in our series come from a dear friend and label regular, Toronto based musician and DJ - @ciel_dj

Words from the artist :

"little sounds in huge expansive spaces"

This mix was my musical extrapolation of this quote. As I put together the tracks in the mix, the idea of small sounds in big spaces became more metaphysical, as a metaphor for memory and nostalgia. Small, seemingly insignificant events in our past can expand in significance over time, informed by our experiences later on in life, and with our emotions acting as a tool of reverberation, extending their presence in our lives far past their time of occurrence. What begun as a process of selecting tracks that quite literally feature "small sounds in big spaces" soon morphed into a dig into my distant past, to nearly 20 years ago when I first started learning to DJ. I pulled from the mnml tracks that had an important influence on my formative years, their impact can still be heard in the contemporary tracks I play today, all of them bouncing next to each other in this nearly 2hr musical collage.
