"The main theme I aimed for was "funky." By funky I mean capturing a sense of groove and warmth. It can take many forms—hard, smooth, slow, fast, broken—while still embodying funkiness. In an era where everything sounds impeccably produced, sometimes it lacks that human touch. Tha Funk Shall Be Within U!"

When Ibrahim Alfa Jr. was released from prison about a decade ago, it was pitch dark out and he didn’t know where to go. The techno producer was prolific in the late ‘90s, coming up in Bristol at the outer orbits of the European techno scene, rolling with the likes of David Moufang (Move D), Cristian Vogel, and Justin Berkovi. But he began dealing drugs after moving to London as a way to stay afloat financially while supporting his daughter and ex-girlfriend. After two-and-a-half years behind bars, he got out on parole, and was determined to stay out.
“I went to my friend’s house in Acton, and thought to myself, ‘God, this is not really a place I need to be,’” he remembers. “But the next day as I was making my way back to my flat I saw an ancient G4 Mac in the window of a second-hand electric shop for 40 quid. I think I probably had 47 quid or something like that. And I thought I’d just buy it. A lot of the music that I recorded on that is now on Bandcamp, and it’s some of the most fun music I’ve made.”

У чикагского старины Faithful, скользящего между звуковыми коллажами и рубленым посттехно, и автора этого хита, оказывается, полтора года назад вышел релиз большой. Понравился только Necessary Self Deception, но оформлено красиво жесть.

Music understood as a radical form of qualitative theory which reaches beyond the confines of human language, including mathematics: music too displays a logical independence, an unprovability despite its truth. Music makes possible new admissions/transmissions of the insufficiency of self, personhood, observation, science, and philosophy; as an ideal generic science, music communes with the concept of the generic itself which:
“operates by extracting a minimum invariant from the various scientific disciplines…these invariants have to be superposed, to be introduced as theoretical givens into the mode of superposition: the materials of science or philosophy are thus to be supplied to a material, conceptual formalism, i.e. they are themselves to be put into the mode of superposition as vectors, that is, into the context of generic science, which operates with the (vectorial) notion of wave rather than with notions such as corpuscle and point”

super sweet mix
After a longer mixtape break, we plan to ramp up the output this year starting off with London based @OnyaDev. Host of the Strange Pleasures show on Lisbon based @quanticaonline, after a decade in Portugal and Berlin moving around DIY scenes, this past year she found herself playing alongside artists like Lukid, Tapes, Lil Mofo and more in Japan, Berlin and London.
We love Onya’s open heart for all genres which results in a varied and liberated approach to her sets which explore the “odder end of dance music, experimental electronic, and sounds of strange pleasure.“

Pressure-filled, heady jungle and breaks are the order of the day in our latest Crack mix, courtesy of London’s Lukid (real name Luke Blair). Across 60 minutes, he strips back his usually wide-ranging style into a focused, precise session of tight percussion and rolling basslines.
“My NTS mixes are all over the place so I thought it’d be fun to do something more focussed,” he says. “And as I have a new Refreshers track coming out it made sense for the focus to be on jungle and the like. Enjoy.”
