PEEV & Realitycheck - Ultimate Moment Of Truth

Ez! 
None other than Wordcolour up next for the pod, a crazily talented producer & DJ, big fans of his over here. His mix took us aback a bit too, perfectly weaved club mix, deep and spacey while still being really tough. Massivve thanks to Wordcolour, we also caught up with him for a lil chat! Read below >

AM: Yo Nick! What have you been up to recently? 

Wordcolour: Hey, thanks for having me! I've had a busy start to the year getting stuck into a few projects - a remix, a collab, doing music and sound design for my friend Andrea Khora's short film Bolus. After finishing a big upcoming project last year I've been having fun jumping around and doing a few different things with different people.

AM: How and where did you record the mix? Was there a theme or anything behind it? 

Wordcolour: The Mix was recorded at home on two XDJ 700s and a Xone 23. In terms of theme - I have this folder in my rekordbox which I call "dreamy - good if fucked" which is maybe pretty self-explanatory, but it tends to be full of lots of deep spacious things - dubstep, hip hop, ambient, other oddities. I think the inspiration for this folder came from a few years ago when I was at Atonal and me and a good pal went to see Lee Gamble at a point in the night when I was feeling pretty blissed out and fuzzy. I remember he was playing this quite up-tempo set but suddenly took it down to this really spacious half-time dubstep thing and I honestly felt like I could see all the reverb haha. I've been obsessed with trying to bring a little of this vibe into my sets since then, and this mix is me kind of weaving in and out of that stuff.

AM: We hear there’s an album on the horizon, tell us a bit about it and the process for it if you can? 

Wordcolour: Ah yeah! I probably can't say too much about it just yet but keep your eyes peeled later this month. It's a bit of a departure for me - I took the opportunity to explore a bit beyond the club music I've released so far, and revisit the more ambient/experimental territory of some of my earlier mixes (such as my Blowing Up The Workshop mix of a few years ago). I guess this record is an effort to unite these two halves of what I make which was a lot of fun to try and figure out. I think it's quite an unusual record, and I'm really keen to know what people make of it!

AM: You really do have a trademark playful & intricate sound/style in your production, has it always been like this since you started producing? 

Wordcolour: Oh thanks! I guess I came to club music a little bit later than a lot of other producers/DJs I know. For a long time I wrote other things - songs, bits of music for TV/theatre etc. I think maybe this informs what I make to some extent - I'm always really keen to pull in influences from outside of club music into what I do. I'm as influenced by Laurie Anderson, Steve Reich or Paul Lansky as I am by Objekt or Batu...

AM: What’s next for you in 2022? 

Wordcolour: I'm currently putting together a live-set which will explore the more ambient/experimental side of this new album. I only recently started using ableton and I've never done anything like this before, so this has been a really fun challenge and jumping off point for going deeper into some of those ideas. I'm also looking forward to doing a lot more as a DJ - I love playing so much! And I feel like I've really found my feet with DJing in the last year.
