@bedim Bedim is a DJ from Vilnius, Lithuania and was a part of the Despotin Beat Club radio-show / movement (@despotin). > The thing radio taught me is that the most surprising music often is found on the B-side. The stuff that you usually skip in search for a banger or a track that would be DJ friendly, easy to mix. With this installment I try to explore Folk / Ambient / Classical music, which happens to be mostly Japanese, and create an interesting and quirky sonic piece that I would enjoy listening to.

@dylanmhowe / @portlandcompressor / @c_plus_plus Dylan M Howe is a musician based out of Portland, Oregon. He has released music and performed under the name C Plus Plus from 2014 to 2017 and is one half of the duos Portland Compressor and Action Sports with long-time collaborator Matthew Pepitone (aka Karmelloz). Most recently, the duo released the album «Action Sports» on Barcelona based label Angoisse (@angoisse). The album mixes moody ambient techno with leftfield ambient constructions, all with a heavy dose of dub. The duo also recently released the second volume of their Portland Compressor series, which mixes melodic electronica with post-rock tendencies. This mix was recorded on Pioneer CDJ-1000s with tracks that were largely compiled from CDs from Dylan’s recently totaled 1998 Subaru, alongside a few unreleased solo tracks and a forthcoming Action Sports track. The mix moves between glitchy soundscapes, industrial electronics, downtempo beats and ambient bits of techno. Tracklist: 01. Ian Boddy – Into View 02. Action Sports – Subj] Scarcely A Ripple 03.

(@aquatic0).

Berlin based Dj and producer Teenage Tasteless (@teenage-tasteless) delivers an eclectic mix for our 10th podcast layering vinyl, digital audio files and tapes. >In the nineties I was a rave kid but all my friends where goths and now I can’t tell the difference anymore. I always listened to hip hop but felt secretly embarrassed for the German kids wearing baggypants in school. Musically I started as a DJ and moved on to produce tracks to incorporate them in my sets. Later I started a band and disbanded it again because the music I had in mind was way to complicated to play for just three humans with such humble skills as ours. Now I still use the guitar as a sound source as much as the synths and editing techniques I’ve accumulated over the years. *Some of his favourite records in no particular order:* - Zoviet France – Loh Land - Aphex Twin – I Care Because You Do - Digable Planets – Blowout Comb - Sonic Youth – Experimental Jet Set, Trash And No Star - Squarepusher – Feed Me Weird Things - Bauhaus – Mask - Liaisons Dangereuses – Liaisons Dangereuses - Dopplereffekt – Gesamtkunstwerk - Clouddead – Clouddead - Robert Hood – Minimal Nation
@tobs1312 For Yarn Audio’s 9th podcast we have an energetic mix from Tobs – a producer and DJ from Bremen / Germany – whose remix of Joy Orbison’s «Hypth Mngo» you might have heard on our latest free EP «Bootlegs I». Tobs got in touch with electronic music – especially Techno and Jungle – at the young age of 12. When some years later the symbiosis of broken and straight styles started to blend and Dubstep and Techno began to move closer together he started to buy records and had his first gigs at the Zucker Club in Bremen. In 2014 Tobs founded the record label Drowned Records together with four friends. Their fifth release is currently in the making. Make sure to check out Tobs’ latest release on Drowned!

EN: Yarn Audio’s 8th podcast has been mixed by George McVicar (@georgemcvicar), a 22 year old producer and DJ living in London / UK. George is also part of the «Stray Landings» (@stray-landings) collective, a blog and label which has become more and more established in recent times. Along with fellow Stray Landings editor Stavrogin (@theodm), George has furthermore began producing experimental industrial music under the name Aa3_Tzt.[RN500] (@aa3_tzt-rn500) – with their debut release on the horizon. «This mix was partly inspired by a couple of shows I had played in the past with the Stray Landings collective. It's all on vinyl and although this means the sound is a bit dusty and the mixes less slick, I think this is a pretty good representation of what a live set from me would sound like.» DE: Yarn Audio’s achter Podcast wurde von George McVicar (@georgemcvicar) gemixt, einem 22-jährigem Produzenten und DJ aus London. George ist Teil des »Stray Landings« (@stray-landings)Kollektivs, welches ein Blog und Label betreibt und in letzter Zeit für immer mehr Aufsehen sorgt. Zusammen mit dem Stray Landings Redakteur »Stavrogin« (@theodm) produziert George unter dem Namen »Aa3_Tzt.[RN500]« (@aa3_tzt-rn500) außerdem experimentellen Industrial-Techno. Das Debut-Release wird nicht mehr lange auf sich warten lassen… »Dieser Mix wurde von einigen Auftritten in letzter Zeit inspriert, bei denen ich zusammen mit dem Stray Landings-Kollektiv gespielt habe. Alle Tracks sind auf Vinyl. Auch wenn der Mix dadurch etwas angestaubt klingt und die Übergänge nicht 100% glatt sind, gibt er trotzdem einen guten Einblick, wie sich ein Liveset von mir anhören könnte.« Tracklist: Aardvark - Yogya Truncate - Dial Bandshell- Rise 'Em Roman Poncet - Cerete Tom Diccico - Physical James Ruskin - Slit Ontal - Disorientation Oni Ayhun - OAR004-A Perc - Bleeding Colours (Untold Remix) Henrik B - Logos Robert Hood - And Then We Planned Our Escape Ed Davenport & Oliver Deutschmann - Trump Call Super - Depicta Lakker - K'antu Objekt - Agnes Demise Demdike Stare - Null Results Claude Debussy - Pour les Accords [slowed down]
Yarn Audio presents another unique mix. The man behind the decks is SUB.FM resident and former netlabel-activist Simon/off (@simon-off). He has released his fusion of melodic house, banging garage and percussive bass on labels like Phuture Shock (@phutureshockmusik), B.YRSLF Division (@byrslf_division), Syncopathic (@sub) and disko404 (@disko404) since 2005 and was already remixed by hardware enthusiast Bass Clef. Simon/off is not only a versatile musician, but also an experienced party maker. So it’s no surprise, that his installment of Yarn’s podcast series is one of the most banging and personal mixtapes in the label’s history. UK vibes encounter broken house beats, dodgy breaks and dreamy melodies. Does it make sense to put Simon/off’s wonderful selection into words? Just give it a listen and swing away… Here are some of his former free netaudio-releases: As Winterstrand (together with his brothers): https://archive.org/download/kpu079/kpu079_vbr_mp3.zip https://archive.org/download/USR-011/USR-011_vbr_mp3.zip http://archive.org/download/miga09/miga09_vbr_mp3.zip https://archive.org/download/laridae035/laridae035_vbr_mp3.zip As Simon/off: http://www.plainaudio.com/electronic/releases/pp025me.html Check out his recent EP on Phuture Shock, too (vinyl + digital): https://soundcloud.com/simon-off/sets/simon-off-molecules-ep-psm010 Tracklist: 01 Sun Ra - After the End of the World 02 Blue Daisy (@bluedaisy) - Strings Detached 03 Bass Clef - Stenaline Metranil Solar Flare (Pev Remix) 04 Kassem Mosse - No Peace No Love No Unity 05 Nubian Mindz (@colinlindo) - Technological Fools (dub) 06 IZC (@izc) - Zig-Zag 07 Aplot (@aplot) - Drumjam (dub) 08 Simon/off (@simon-off) - The Feel - (dub) 09 Blind Prophet (@blind-prophet) - Stasis (dub) 10 Mama Testa - Pasion Morena (Simon/off 135 Rmx) (dub) 11 IZC (@izc) - Strings 2129 12 Sticky (@stickyproductions) & Stush - Dollar Sign 13 Wookie (@wooxstar) ft Lain - Battle (MJ Cole (@mj-cole) Rmx) 14 OL (@olovo) - Vertikale Race 15 Sclist (@sclist) - Throne Guard 16 Wax - 20002A 17 Somepoe (@somepoe) - Bulletdrops 18 Aplot (@aplot) - Shadows - (dub) 19 Biome (@djbiome) - Chosen 20 Fontarian - To Desire The Things That Will Destroy You In The End (dub) 21 Musik aus der Batterie - Znoik Goes Public 22 Sun Ra - Sometimes I'm Happy
Yarn Audio's 6th podcast was mixed by @tutorso, an artist from Querétaro, Mexico, who was responsible for the last release »Jacaranda« on Yarn Audio in October as well. Coming from a more experimental background, he now gets more and more into Bass Music. In the mix you will hear some genre-shaping classics like Addison Groove’s »Minutes of Funk«, Objekt’s »The Goose that Got Away« as well as some new stuff. Enjoy! Tracklist: Ainnome - Laurel Halo Springs - Daphni Southern Comfort - Burial Brunk - Randomer Minutes of Funk - Addison Groove The Goose that Got Away - Objekt Pyramid Lake - Airhead Manabadman (Instrumental) - Mark Pritchard Beat of the Drum (Throwing Snow Remix) - Happa I Stumble - Bored Lord Jupiter Ascent - Ital Tek Untitled (Obey City Remix) - JAW JAM Dont 1 2 Lose U - Machinedrum
The 5th Yarn Audio podcast is mixed by @shrednock, aka Koen Nutters; a Dutch, Berlin based DJ and musician who, together with his Urban Mutations crew, runs two monthly nights at »Paloma Bar« and at Neukölln's favorite bar »O Tannenbaum«. They play an engaging mix of multi-stylistic club music, pushing structural boundaries without losing focus on the dancefloor, and keeping the night as varied as possible. This mix lays its focus on bass heavy Bristol tunes along with some Grime 2.0, some Club Constructions and a little Fade to Mind R&B. Bookheaded by two cuts from one recent and one upcoming PAN release. All with a lot of space and a lot of creative arrangement and tight but organic mixing by MFK. Next to DJ-ing, KN is also part of several experimental music groups such as @t-h-e-p-i-t-c-h, Konzert Minimal and The New Silence. Check out their upcoming event at Chesters! www.urbanmutations.com www.thepitch.tk www.konzert-minimal-berlin.tk Upcoming events in Berlin: https://www.facebook.com/events/525011717580442/ https://www.facebook.com/events/1389427004629314/ Tracklist: var_len - Rene Hell Slope - Joe 95 - New York Transit Authority Beneath Radar (Kowton Mix) - Peverelist and Kowton Keyhole - Addison Groove & Die B Storm - NA 500 Years - Jam City Rough - Beneath Prescient - Visionist Circles - Visionist Throw - Laurel Halo Ride VIP - Special Request Lowout (Teeth Remix) - LAS Crimson (Beat Ritual Mix) - Pearson Sound Cherry Coffee - Kelela Seit Nuin - Dalglish
Yarn Audio does it again! The 4th podcast is mixed by DJ and producer https://soundcloud.com/uk-garage-mokujin (Blaq Recordings, L2S Records), who presents his idea of “Phantom Rave”. UK-garage is the framework for his audible trip, but Mokujin also explores the past and future of experimental electronic music, delivering a unique and playful selection of underground tunes by him and his friends. The London-raised and Berlin-based Mokujin is in the game since 1988 and released on labels like Future Grooves and Blaq Records. Not only the development of Bass Music, also video games, street art and anime inspire the mysterious musician with the mask. Forget about the genre-hype, get your ears wide open and enjoy some real underground bangers! 01 - TMRW - Memories Of The Future 02 - Mokujin - I Can't Take It (You Can Bounce To It Version) 03 - Pledge -Alright 04 - Clueless - Binge and Purge 05 - Indra - Sweeter Than Honey 06 - IYVES - Luxury 07 - PromKnights - Sensation 08 - Mokujin - Confessions (London VIP) 09 - Forget Me Not - Kill Me (With Your Love) 10 - Metrist - Transport 11 - Arcane G - Dimensions 12 - Zaika - Stay With Me 13 - Mastra & Jon Donson - Out Of Knowhere 14 - Bambarra - Gime That 15 - Aztro - Black Rainbow 16 - DEVolution - My Friends 17 - Gorgon City - Thor 18 - Mokujin - What The? 19 - Mokujin - Ending
Yarn Audio strikes back with another fabulous mix. Guest of honour is Tommy Harrison, delivering a playful selection of cutting-edge bass music and genre-shaping classics. Influenced by the likes of Mark Pritchard, Mosca, Boddika, Hessle Audio, Joy O, Floating Points, Zed Bias, Roska, Julio Bashmore and Digital Soundboy....but also bumping J Dilla non-stop. To say Harrison is versatile is not only an understatement, but somehow insulting to him as a DJ. Not only is he journeying over various genres of music, his record selections and performances involve music that has depth, soul and hits you in all those places you want it to...just when you want it to!
