FACT mix 197: Margaret Dygas
November 15, 2010 § Leave a Comment
From Fact: Dygas – born Małgorzata Dygasiewicz in Poland, raised in California – has been a notable presence in house and techno since around 2005; she first came to our attention through her association with the then very much on-it Crosstown Rebels crew. Long a DJ of high repute, Dygas’s development in her parallel career as a producer has been remarkable. Working partly in collaboration with NSI’s Tobias Freund, she has now arrived at a trippy, well-honed and unshowily avant-garde techno sound that has seen her release records through such august imprints as Perlon and Non Standard Productions. Her latest and most substantial offering to date is debut album How Do You Do?, out now via Japanese label Power Shovel Audio.
Margaret’s FACT mix finds her at her seductive DJing best, sailing broken, dubbed-out productions from Pinch, Cyrus and Deadbeat through into the oscillating techno waters bossed by Ben Klock and Luc Ringeisen, making time also for a clutch of underground house killers that are completely new to us. FACT mix 197 might not have much of a Halloween flavour, but mark our words, it’s scarily good.

Oktave joins forces with Little White Earbuds | Silent Servant + DVS1 Podcast
November 1, 2010 § Leave a Comment
The NY-based sound/event collective Oktave, a collaboration of DJs Jeff Derringer and Kevin Gregor, has been gaining much exposure this past year with events in the city directed at a dark underground sound with some of the best world talent at the helms of their sound-control. As the evolution of sound moves faster it’s impressive to see Oktave catch such acts as Claro Intellecto, Lucy, and Cio D’Or for intimate performances this past year.
Most recently Oktave has seen a collaboration with Little White Earbuds who together are launching Oktave in Chicago on November 5 with a lineup of Silent Servant, DVS1, Karl Meier and Jeff Derringer for the party. From the facebook page: ”We are pleased to announce a partnership between Oktave and littlewhiteearbuds for our Chicago debut on November 5th at Smart Bar. In the coming weeks we will be giving away tickets to the show, and LWE will be hosting a special podcast co-produced by Silent Servant and DVS1.”
That podcast has launched today – LWE63 – Silent Servant + DVS1 along with an interview with the producers.
Silent Servant: No theme, I mixed it live in one take and just tried to do what I do when I DJ live. Both Zak (DVS1) and I still play mainly vinyl, so the mix is very accurate to what you get from us live, in my opinion.
From LWE: Contrary to popular belief, America’s Midwestern dance music scene is much more than Detroit and Chicago. Two of its most vital contemporary talents, Silent Servant and DVS1, reside in Minneapolis, a city with a modest but quite vibrant techno community not beholden to any specific traditions or influences. Juan Mendez got his start under the guise of Jasper with steely, abstract techno sounds for his labels Cytrax and Delay. He reemerged again in 2006 as Silent Servant, a member of the shadowy Sandwell District collective which hosted many of the forceful, dub-damaged tracks that rebuilt his devoted following. Mendez is friends/neighbors with Zak Khutoretsky, an old techno hand who recently found acclaim under the moniker DVS1. Having impressed Ben Klock with his live set while the Berghain resident was playing Minneapolis, Khutoretsky’s debut release soon landed on the Klockworks imprint. His oily, classically-influenced techno tracks have since garnered the attention of Transmat Records and hordes of followers on both sides of the Atlantic. In anticipation of their performances on November 5th at Oktave’s debut Chicago party at Smart Bar, Silent Servant and DVS1 have teamed up to create a truly unique and pulse-quickening techno mix for LWE’s 63rd exclusive podcast. We also solicited a few words from the guys about their respective projects.

Got this link from my friend Vicki on the TNL list.. once again TNL brings the hotness with tidbits I love to learn about. Text below cribbed from Vicki’s email.. check our her blog HERE and read below for more info on Incyde (Alex).
Vicki: “Posting or reading posts about mixes done by people on this list is one of my favorite things about TNL. I’m proud to post this one, especially since Alex is never going to brag about the fact that he runs Hot Flush with Scuba, works as a publicist for Surefire and is a resident at Dub War. This list is filled with artists and music lovers that are fiercely passionate about music, and can appreciate those who make it their source of income, personal growth and a means to communicate with the world around. So, without further ado, enjoy!”

May 13, 2009 § 1 Comment

Marz Entertainment head-honcho and deep-house DJ extrodinaire Randy Deshaies has just released a beautiful podcast with Soul Clap.

Deshaies is a New England DJ hero and one of Boston’s pioneers of the San Fran/Chicago house sound that swept the late 90’s and early 2000’s. His crew, the ever so rave-a-ly named Marz Entertainment, launched in the mid 90’s and ran for over a decade at the top of the local dance music scene and his Sunday night party at the Phoenix Landing called Bump, with resident DJs Randy, Sergio Santos and Ryan Obermiller was responsible for countless DJ sets from the likes of Derrick Carter, Mark Farina, Heather, Colette, DJ Sneak, Diz, Justin Martin and many others.
Fast forward to the future and It is with great pleasure that we present a mix from Mr. Deshaies himself. Here’s a few words from the man who describes his podcast as “upbeat and vibey with a touch of nostalgia to grab the essence of DJing as I interpret it.

DJ Sneak Podcast for Ibiza-Voice website
April 30, 2009 § 1 Comment

Not much info on this one but it was *just* posted on Ibiza Voice so I wanted to deliver the link. Toronto’s Dj Sneak brings back some old-school house flavor in just the way you love. Push and Pull style deep jacking house music just in time for Summer. He’s always been a favorite of mine, bringing jack back to deep house and filling floors every time I’ve heard him play. Quite the DJ’s DJ, always a little surprise for you in the mix. Sound and mix quality tell me he’s still playin vinyl (awesome.) Download the podcast HERE.
