Mixes

With this mix, I’d like to present the listener with something that reflects a combination of both past and future tense. The journey is presented through an array of tracks that have given me inspiration over the years, accompanied by some fresh sonics of my own. Through pairing these 2 concepts, I offer something of a symbiont nature. At a genre-focused level, the mix explores a landscape of 140, Techno, Footwork, and Halftime, weirdly intertwined to keep the listener on their toes.

This mix transport you in a dreamy, breakbeat, ambient, electro balanced atmosphere. The tracks have been put together after a long car ride. I felt inspired and ready for a little timeless adventure.

I like to call this mix ‘Speed to Saturn’ - a sci-fi vision of what music will be playing as you travel in a Hyper Speed portal to a rave on Saturn, to escape a desolate and dystopian Planet Earth. The mix is a representation of what my friends and I have been experiencing and dancing to during the pandemic in Scotland. Currently our city of Glasgow has been in a depressing 9 months of lockdown, the longest in the UK - which we have been escaping through means of listening to futuristic Hard Trance and Hard Techno. We all live near the bridge in the picture - which on certain weekend nights looks like another planet, glimmering in the distance.

This mix reminds me of the rain. The feeling of being humble inside with heavy clouds, rain and thunder outside is what it's inspired from.

This mix really reflects the era when I was deep into partying. Going out to places in Berlin like Polar TV, WMF and Sternradio Afterhour in the first years after the turn of the Millennium. I’m still amazed by the ideas and incredible productions from back then. Techno in that period was definitely driven by a much more emotional sound, probably a reason why the pills kicked in a bit better. It wasn’t an easy task to find all my old favorites, mainly because I only knew a few of the track titles and could only remember the melodies of most of them. So I definitely poured a lot of time and passion into this mix. A few times while I was recording I got serious goosebumps, it felt like I was time traveling. I’m really happy that I finally managed to finish it, I hope you enjoy it!

This journey has a special flow and energy and is decently mixing different genres by finding connections. It reflects a train ride while looking out of a window, seeing trees passing by and experience the single sounds communicate with each other. The mixing (vinyl only) could have been better, sorry for this! Hope you like it nevertheless!

This mix is  mostly made up of slow, organic, deep, melodic and transcendent sounds that I’ve been collecting for a very long time now. For me, it reflects an intimate and personal journey through those sounds, which I can finally share. This set is about slowing down. It’s about discovering one’s deep self and just being present in the now.

This mix is a collection of music that I currently like and listen to around the house, on flights, or in the car driving. I like a wide variety of genres not only centered around electronic music.

On a cold and hazy winter night, walking along a dark deserted street, I was overcome by an uncomfortable yet strangely familiar feeling - paralysed by a sense of anxious foreboding, I suddenly was blinded by a brilliant light above and against my own comprehensive faculty was stretched into the sky, the accelerating velocity ejecting my body and mind out of Earth’s stratosphere. Subsequently, I was tossed far into the depth of our solar system - its vast space, distant planets and rocky asteroid belts - and down into the abyss of my subconscious mind.

This mix was recorded at Institut für Zukunft in Leipzig, where we played a four hour opening set. We made some small edits and added some tracks to finalise the mix. There is a magic about playing opening sets, and this night was special in particular — the lights got turned off and we played our first ambient track as a tuft of smoke was blown into club, which remained midair in the middle of the dance floor, like a sculpture — and it slowly vanished. The first guest came in and sat down against the concrete column, listening attentively as more smoke-sculptures formed around him. We were happy to play the first 20 minutes just for him.

Some sounds are better absorbed in isolation, this mix is intended for solo listening, preferably in darkness with all channels open.

This mix has been made with a “collage” type of work in mind, using small bits from a lot of different tracks to make an entirely new one. This is already something I have been experimenting with when I DJ but I wanted to take things a bit further with a more precise and surgical approach which a studio mix allows for. To achieve that, I've reworked and edited 99% of the songs I used, it took ages but was a very interesting and rewarding process that basically enabled me to make whole new edits of my all time favorite tracks.

For this recording I was asked to provide an image that played into the sonic narrative of the mix. I chose a photo I shot in the Arashiyama forest in Kyoto.  This photograph always brings me back to a vivid moment in which time stood still and I simply enjoyed the present.  It allowed for making a mix in isolation ever so much more enjoyable. No matter how abrasive or gentle, music shares so many similarities with the textures, colors, shapes, and movements of more organic entities.

The mix is a representation of a Saturday night out, heading into the city to meet friends, having some drinks in a bar. The build of excitement as everyone starts to meet up. Back into the inner city streets and the 5min walk that takes 50mins from the bar to the club. The arrival, hitting the dancefloor, losing all inhibitions, lost in the frequencies and shaking your ass to the tribal rhythms enveloping us from the soundsystem, 8hrs feel like 1hr in the blink of an eye. Its now 8am, lights have gone up, some friends have been lost, some new friends have been made in the aftermath. One party ends and another begins...

Both the mix and image represent a simpler, easier time; one that I have felt nostalgic for lately. I took that photograph (on yet another long-lost camera) at a park in Sydney around the time I started DJing. A couple of the tracks included are those that inspired me to start DJing - most notably Zsa Zsa Laboum's 'Something Scary' - fitting then and fitting now.

Its a dystopic preflection of future telecommunication networks, 69G wavelengths converted into mp3, replying to oblivion from the centre of the void. Nature is healing in the face of our absence, dolphins are returning to the canals of Berlin, kooks are flooding the Information troughs, too much is occurring for us to be aware of. Our brains are becoming silk smooth in the face of this information overload. Bodies know how to move without the injection of thought.

This mix springs from a worried yet hopeful place in my mind reflecting on the past and whats to come in this new way of living we're all adjusting to, for the worse but definitely also for the better. It reflects the change and adjustment life is constantly demanding both naturally but also when forced upon you to make decisions and move on. It took me to both darker and happier places while creating it.

For this mix I wanted to do the complete opposite of how I DJ in a club. Normally I play three or four tracks at once, layering sounds and loops with them and cutting between them very quickly and aggressively. Here I am letting the tracks almost play out in full and taking a calmer, more relaxed approach. The tracks themselves range from music from Stephen Mallinder's debut solo LP Pow Wow from back in 1982 to upfront promos I've received in the last few days, there is some deeper techno but it is mainly melodic and atmospheric tracks.
