AHardway dancefloor throb injected into Strange Fruit's shoegaze-inflected original… There was a Strange Fruit from Jakarta who said, “I shall go on Tuesday, iridescent and red! With a hypnodub shimmer and kosmische delight, I shall drip upon Wednesday and dance through the night!” The Hardway Bros heard it and let out a shout: “We'll remix your polarness inside and about! We'll chug through the shoegaze and acid the house, Till the SSL dubs frighten even the mouse!” So the Fruit and the Bros on a Gentle Tuesday Went sailing on Monopolar waves far away, With a Pouvoi Moteur and a Tom Furse dub too, And they dripped and they gleamed in iridescent blue. “O Fruit!” said the Bros, “O remarkable thing! You are dreamy and poppy and you know how to sing! You are krautrock and electronica, strange as can be, And we'll live on the SSL for ever,” said he. Jakarta's Strange Fruit occupy an unusual space: a band whose shoegaze-inflected live sound sits in a completely different world from the underground electronic circuits their members move through as producers and DJs. It's that dual existence that makes the remix package around their forthcoming Drips EP so compelling – dispatches from a shared musical universe. For the Monopolar remix, Sean Johnston, under his Hardway Bros moniker, does what he very much does best: find the load-bearing elements of a track and build something new around them. Where the original carries its kosmische momentum intact, this version leans into the slowed-down throb, peeling back the layers and letting the groove do the work. Drips arrives via Gentle Tuesday Recordings soon. With remixes still to come from Tom Furse among others, Strange Fruit are making a quietly persuasive case for themselves as one of the more interesting propositions to emerge from Jakarta's electronic underground.

She's a graphic artist. I asked her to remove the sun emblem from his chest and add a symbol of a house and beside that a music note, for 'house music'.This one I put through a filter and got this cool purple and I LOVE purple.This is what Google Search says about the colour Purple:"Purple is widely recognized as the color of royalty, luxury, power, and ambition, historically derived from rare, expensive dyes. It blends the calming, stable energy of blue with the intense, stimulating energy of red, symbolizing wisdom, creativity, magic, and spirituality."
Hello Groovers, This week's Liquid Sunshine is a love letter in two parts—starting with an hour of slow-burning soul that wraps around you like an embrace, from Donald Byrd's tender "Dominoes" through Leon Ware's eternal rocking and RAMP's daylight dreams. Then the energy shifts as the second hour lifts that intimate feeling skyward with gospel-tinged house anthems from Kenny Bobien, Masters At Work, and Bobby Winans that turn private devotion into collective celebration. It's two hours that move from whispered affection to hands-in-the-air exaltation—proof that love sounds just as good when you're holding someone close as when you're shouting it from the rooftops.

As the person behind the gender diversity-centring club night QRAVE and the informative gatherings Flower Tools, Avril Stormy Unger knows more than a thing or two about making the dancefloor shake. But when it comes to creating a Wild City Mix, the Goa-based drag, stand-up and multi-disciplinary performer who DJs as Chutney Mary keeps in mind how the mix might be consumed (likely private home-listening) and utilises it to experiment with the space between the ambient and the rhythmic instead. Sandwiching in her local contemporaries like Fursat FM and Catatacat in a mix that kicks off with heavyweights like Laurel Halo and Hania Rani, Avril doesn't just sequence the soundscapes but plays with them. The disjointed drums in Etapp Kyle's 'Nolove' seem to answer the call for madness in Pan Daijing's 'Let' while underlining it. When the minimal thump of Mython & Jonas Xenon's 'Nudge', straight from techno mecca Tresor Records, enters, their four-to-the-floor drums feel more like an ambient pulse than a visceral one in the context of the mix. The selections only enter pure dance music territory in its quick-switching final quarter, giving the whole build-up a climax.

Is this what a “Pop icon” is? Kate Bush burst onto the scene in 1978 with Wuthering Heights, a wildly unlikely and ethereal single. The record industry and radio DJs were bemused, but the record-listening public were instantly smitten. I loved it, but I thought it had ‘one-hit wonder' written all over it. I was spectacularly wrong. (I have form in that department. I also tagged Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits as a one-hit wonder.) Kate Bush has had a remarkable career, increasingly on her own terms, and earned the highest respect of her peers and the adoration of her fans. She was anxious when she released her eight … Continue reading →

Laci and Matt pay a visit to Championship Vinyl to hang out with Rob, Barry, Dick, Laura, Ian, Marie de Salle, and all the fine folks in the music scene of that windy city we like to call Chi-Town. That's right, it's High Fidelity (2000)! It's a great music movie. It's an even greater romantic comedy. In fact, it's kind of an anti-romantic comedy, because the lesson in the end is: The most romantic thing in life is being a grown-up. Plus: Our top-five songs we want played at our funerals, AND fierce debate about whether DJs are musicians and if a singer's vocal chords count as an instrument. Next week: True Lies (1994)!

This mix celebrates one of reggae's most iconic and influential voices, bringing together 18 tracks that showcase the incredible range and legacy of the one and only U-Roy. U-Roy, born Ewart Beckford in 1942 in Kingston, Jamaica, is widely regarded as the Originator and Godfather of Toasting, the vocal style that laid the foundation for what would eventually become rap and hip hop. Emerging from the vibrant sound system culture of 1960s Jamaica, U-Roy pioneered the art of toasting, improvising spoken word lyrics and ad-libs over existing riddims and rocksteady rhythms. His breakthrough came in 1970 when he simultaneously held the top three spots on the Jamaican charts, an unprecedented feat that announced the arrival of a revolutionary new voice in reggae music. Over a career spanning more than five decades, U-Roy collaborated with some of reggae's greatest names, including Big Youth, The Gladiators, Hopeton Lewis, and Cornell Campbell, cementing his status as a true cornerstone of the genre. His influence extended far beyond Jamaica, inspiring generations of DJs, toasters, and MCs worldwide. U-Roy continued recording and performing well into his later years, earning lifetime achievement recognition and the deep respect of artists across multiple genres. He passed away in February 2021, leaving behind a catalog that remains as vital and infectious as ever, making this 18-song mix a fitting tribute to one of music's true originals.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom podcast, host Stewart Alsop interviews John von Seggern, founder of Future Proof Music School, about the intersection of music education, technology, and artificial intelligence. They explore how musicians can develop timeless skills in an era of generative AI, the evolution of music production from classical notation to digital audio workstations like Ableton Live, and how AI is being used on the education side rather than for creation. The conversation covers music theory fundamentals, the development of instruments and recording technology throughout history, complex production techniques like sidechain compression, and the future of creative work in an AI-assisted world. John also discusses his development of Cadence, an AI voice tutor integrated with Ableton Live to help students learn music production.

Future-proofing musicians means teaching evergreen techniques while adapting to AI realities. John von Seggern founded Future Proof Music School to address both sides of music education in the AI era. Students learn timeless production skills that won't become obsolete as technology evolves, while simultaneously exploring meaningful creative goals in a world where generative AI exists. The school uses AI on the education side to help students learn, but students themselves aren't particularly interested in using generative AI for actual music creation, preferring to maintain their creative fingerprint on their work.2. The 12-note Western music system emerged from mathematical relationships discovered by Pythagoras and enabled collaborative music-making. Pythagoras demonstrated that pitch relates to vibrating string lengths, establishing mathematical ratios for musical intervals. This system allowed Western classical music to flourish because it could be notated and taught consistently, enabling large groups to play together. However, the piano is never perfectly in tune due to necessary compromises in the tuning system. By the 1920s, composers had explored most harmonic possibilities within this framework, leading to new directions in musical innovation.3. Recording technology fundamentally transformed music by making the studio itself the primary instrument. The invention of audio recording in the early-to-mid 20th century shifted music from purely instrumental composition to sound-based creation. This enabled entirely new genres like electronic dance music and hip-hop, which couldn't exist without technologies like synthesizers and samplers. Modern digital audio workstations like Ableton Live allow producers to have unlimited tracks and manipulate sounds in infinite ways, making any imaginable sound possible and moving innovation from hardware to software.4. Generative AI will likely replace generic music production but not visionary artists. John distinguishes between functional music (background music for films, work, or bars) and music where audiences deeply connect with the artist's vision. AI excels at generating functional music cheaply, which will benefit indie filmmakers and similar creators. However, artists with strong creative visions who audiences follow and identify with won't be replaced. The creative fingerprint and personal statement of important artists will remain valuable regardless of the tools they use, just as DJs created art through curation rather than original production.5. Copyright restrictions are limiting generative music AI's quality compared to other AI domains. Unlike books and visual art, recorded music copyrights are concentrated among a few companies that defend them aggressively. This prevents AI music models from training on the best music in each genre, resulting in lower-quality outputs. Some developers claim their private models trained on copyrighted music sound better than commercial offerings, but legal constraints prevent widespread access. This situation differs significantly from other creative domains where training data is more accessible.6. Modern music production involves complex technical skills like sidechain compression and multi-track mixing. Today's electronic music producers work with potentially hundreds of tracks, each with sophisticated processing. Techniques like sidechain compression allow certain elements (like kick drums) to dynamically reduce the volume of other elements (like bass), ensuring clarity in the final mix. Future Proof Music School teaches students these complex production techniques, with some aspiring producers creating incredibly detailed compositions with intricate effects chains and interdependent track relationships.7. Culture is fragmenting into micro-trends, making discovery rather than creation the primary challenge. John observes that while the era of mass media created mega-stars like The Beatles and Elvis, today's landscape features both enormous stars (like Taylor Swift) and an extremely long tail of creators making niche content. AI will make it easier for more people to create quality content, particularly in fields like independent filmmaking, but the real problem is discovery. Current algorithmic recommendations don't effectively surface hidden gems, suggesting a future where personal AI agents might better curate content based on individual preferences rather than platform-driven engagement metrics.

À l'occasion de la Journée mondiale de la radio (13 février), Chloé Sondervorst propose un tour d'horizon des usages de l'intelligence artificielle dans l'univers radiophonique. Entre stations américaines aux DJs synthétiques, musique générée la nuit en Allemagne et radios d'agents comme Claw FM, l'expérimentation s'accélère, parfois au nom des économies. Mais au-delà du spectaculaire, l'IA s'impose surtout en coulisses, comme outil de transcription, de recherche ou de vérification, notamment en France et en Afrique. La discussion met en lumière un enjeu central : utiliser l'IA pour soutenir la mission éditoriale, renforcer la démocratie et libérer du temps pour le terrain, sans sacrifier la confiance ni l'identité humaine de la radio.

En este episodio de Aragón DJs charlamos con uno de los perfiles jóvenes más interesantes de la escena zaragozana: RULWLF. Con solo 24 años, Raúl ha vivido la cultura de club desde dentro prácticamente desde niño, creciendo entre los pasillos de la mítica sala Oasis. Esa experiencia le ha dado una visión poco habitual: entender la noche no solo desde la cabina, sino desde el respeto por la pista, el trabajo invisible y la responsabilidad de construir un sonido con identidad. Desde septiembre está al frente de WOLF, su propio club, un espacio dedicado al house y sus derivadas más elegantes y contemporáneas. Un proyecto valiente donde ejerce como DJ, promotor y gestor, apostando por la calidad musical, el cuidado del sonido —incluido un sistema diseñado por él mismo— y la creación de comunidad.

In this episode of I'm an Artist, Not a Salesman, host Luis Guzman sits down with DJ Drewski for a raw, wide-ranging conversation about longevity, identity, and what it really takes to build a meaningful career in hip hop without losing yourself. This isn't a highlight reel interview. It's an honest look at the grind behind the titles, the responsibility that comes with influence, and the quiet work people never see.DJ Drewski walks through his journey from carrying crates in New Jersey to becoming the first DJ from the state to hold a weekday midday slot on Hot 97 in over three decades. He talks openly about staying relevant in a fast-moving industry, how curiosity has shaped his career, and why paying dues still matters even when the industry pretends it doesn't. The conversation digs into the difference between overnight success and earned growth, and why the long road builds stronger artists, better leaders, and more grounded humans.The episode goes deeper than music. Drewski opens up about fatherhood, marriage, loss, and how personal responsibility changed the way he moves in business and in life. He shares the emotional impact of losing his father, how grief showed up in unexpected ways, and what it took to finally let go and move forward. These moments give real context to the confidence people see on the surface.Luis and Drewski also unpack culture, community, and service. From creating platforms for unsigned artists, to organizing festival stages for local talent, to opening a family-owned Rita's Italian Ice, Drewski explains why giving back isn't branding, it's a responsibility. He breaks down why he keeps showing up for the culture even when there's no check, no credit, and no applause.Key themes and takeaways discussed in this episode include:Staying relevant in hip hop without chasing trendsThe mindset behind long-term success versus fast fameUsing influence to open doors instead of guarding themNavigating grief, growth, and responsibility as a creativeWhy community work matters even when no one sees itBuilding businesses that reflect who you actually areThroughout the conversation, Luis Guzman challenges the idea that success should look flashy or loud. Instead, this episode highlights consistency, humility, and intentional decision-making as the real markers of growth. It's a reminder that being an artist doesn't mean avoiding business, it means doing business in a way that still feels honest.This episode is especially valuable for creatives, DJs, artists, and entrepreneurs who feel stuck between staying true to themselves and surviving in an industry that rewards shortcuts. It's proof that you can build something lasting without selling your soul, switching up on people, or forgetting where you came from.If this conversation resonated with you, make sure to subscribe to I'm an Artist, Not a Salesman on your preferred podcast platform.
