My next guest on Yax Invites is Dale, a DJ from Adelaide, Australia.

Recorded and mixed with one take on two turntables and a Xone 92, member of Adelaide’s soundcloud.com/visitors618 collective, Dale takes us on a hypnotic journey through the minimal, dubby, and melodic aspects of techno with tracks spanning 30 years, creating a composition of sound equally suited to the dancefloor or loungeroom.

My next guest on Yax Invites is Code618.

Residing in Adelaide, Australia, Code618 is a veteran of all things electronic music, obsessive crate digger and curator of techno and house sounds for over 30 years.

After hearing sonic explorations from Detroit, Chicago and Europe over the crackle of late night radio in the early 90s his radar was locked. For this mix he has delved deep into the vinyl archives for a retro inspired set of 90’s classics and newer releases on a similar tip. 

Mixed 100% on vinyl via venerable Technics 1200’s and DJM-600 in between Code618 leverages experience DJing during the 90’s in the burgeoning Adelaide techno scene.  Expect sounds from Jeff Mills, Dave Clarke, Surgeon, DJ Rush, Ausgang, Frozen Border and Joey Beltram to name a few….

My next guest on Yax Invites is 1 auxy.

Birthed from the grit and grime of the mid-nineties Midwest rave scene. Born and currently residing in Akron, Ohio, USA. Inspired by the music and DJ’s coming out of Detroit, Chicago, New York, Berlin, the UK and the parties that were happening across the Midwestern United States during that magickal time. 1 Auxy began his obsession with record collecting and DJ’ing in 1995 in Akron and Cleveland. Warehouse parties and club nights. Late nights and early mornings. Techno, house music and the intersection where they meet. Raw, soulful, psychedelic. Mixing new and old. All for the love of the music. No bullshit. No gimmicks. 

"I really like this one. Starts off with ambient and more experimental jams, builds into a deep super heady techno set and ends with some dub techno from Maurizio and a house cut from Cassy. Really nice flow to it. Kind of like condensing a party into an hour and a half".

My next guest on Yax Invites is Adelaide techno veteran, Ben Alibi, who has kindly prepared an interesting write up to support his mix for the series below.

Good records offer an insight into another existence - be it here on Earth, or the far flung reaches of our imaginations. Speaking personally, the valuable ones are usually something I continue to find something new in and are as appreciated being played right through, or mixed as a portion in a set. 

When DJing, I feel the focus should be on the music itself; I've only ever used two sources at once and I like to believe that in some ways there's fewer places to hide when it's just you and two tracks. Knowing how to juggle three (or more) decks well would be awesome though! 

I always go back to hearing Jeff Mills play over two nights, during the mid 90's. Night one was his 3-turntable power mix - which was amazing to watch first-hand! However, night two was performed on two decks only, whereby it felt to me like the level of intensity and audience involvement was counter-intuitively higher. Furthermore, it seemed like the track selection went deeper and everything being aired reached its full potential. 

As such, I believe a DJ's role is simply to work productions together, so as to best highlight the standout parts of each track simultaneously - anything more, or less, only detracts from what should be at the core of it all; individual human expression, through techno music. 

This mix has plenty of personal old favourites - tracks that we (my generation) would associate with a night out in Adelaide during the early 90's. I'm old enough to remember this period fondly and with good reason as Adelaide, South Australia truly was the underground techno capital (outpost) of Australia - if not the southern hemisphere - primarily due to being the base for the formative label, Juice Records. 

The current generation of contributors should certainly feel proud of our foundations, but crucially, remember that so much has changed. We're totally just a grain of sand on a beach now, but something big has been achieved here before, so it's certainly possible again.
 
From my perspective, if there's one thing to take from our history here, it's that we be totally confident in our unique way of doing things as that's core to our sustainability; moreover, it's what someone on the receiving end 'buys into'. 

Again, with the sentimentality... but buying records back in the day was like being a tourist - you were taking a ride on someone else's reality. Every point in the globe, every scene within a point, had its own sound and this was a big part of the attraction that techno music originally held. In essence, I wish to continue being part of the movement that (re)focuses on sounding like Adelaide, for us to then communicate outwardly with. 

I love what we had, but I love where we might go next, even more. 

I hope that you enjoy listening to this selection as much as I did laying it down. N.B. keep an ear out for the new (and some unreleased) music within from DMZ and Antony Coppens, on Juice Records.

Yax Invites #057 - Ben Alibi

@prantel is a notorious 90s head and does not hold back on playing records pressed before his birthdate, mixing it all up with both the old and new. His own party series „Antidote" focusses on bringing a different sound to Berlin, much like his DJ sets the line ups consist of both oldschool legends as well as up and coming artists from the local Berlin scene.

'Spinning Grounds' by @katharina-davids is all about opening grounds for newcomers to spin their music - to explore genres from house, Detroit, dub techno to break beat.

Hervé - 003

This month I’m joined by German producer and live performer, Tobias Freund. A true veteran in electronic music, Tobias’ first job was as an apprentice in a music and recording studio in Frankfurt where he grew up. Fueled by a deep love of technology, machines, and sound, he learned to engineer and later to create. These days, he has a concise collection of hardware which he uses to experiment in techno, downtempo, punk and beyond.

Tobias and I met at his studio in Berlin to discuss all things machine, technology, and the joy of exploring a craft he’s spent a lifetime perfecting.
