Noema UK & Fearful Present:
The ExtraSolar Podcast #25 [XTRSLRP025]
This month is a bit of a milestone as we upload the 25th podcast in our series. To celebrate, we’ve got a mix from M-Zine & Scepticz thats so full of Dubs that we haven’t been able to include a tracklist.
Q: Hey guys, how’s it going? We're hyped to have you in the mix for us this month, it seems you've been busy in the studio lately. You've got a heap of tunes forthcoming, what can you tell us about those? Are there any tracks you're particularly proud of?
“Easy guys, all’s going well thank you, big up for having us do the podcast this month !
There’s a couple of tunes forthcoming over the next couple of months Yes! We’ve got a shared 12” with DLR that has just come out today actually (1st of July), which we’re both very proud of. There’s an EP wrapped up for Blendits Audio (Rotterdam), an EP for Dispatch Recordings that has been coming together nicely, plus a tune on their scheduled VA Album (DIS100). Also we just had a tune released on Different Music for their GiraffeDay Charity LP, which we’re really glad to have been a part off, be sure to check that out if you haven’t already ;-)”
Q: We're loving the collaboration with DLR on Warm Communications. The track has an amazing vibe and it’s a bit different from what we're used to hearing from you. How was it working with him?
“Working with Jay was quite sick, he showed us around Bristol a bit, his workflow is very much inspiring, basically we brought some sample vibes along with us, got one of his beats in and the tune quite fluently came together, that’s what’s so exciting for us about this collaboration, the natural progression behind it. Furthermore Jay is one of the nicest and safest dudes we’ve met!”
Q: So how do things normally work in the studio between you two? Are there any parts of production either of you like best?
“Things usually start of with just a beat or a main idea of what we want to make, making sure the drums are right is key to making a tune, so we’ll spend a lot of time going back and forth between other tunes and comparing the drums to them first, if those are balanced out nicely, the rest quickly follows and tends to sit nicely with the backbone of the tune.
Joeri is the man behind the engineering of the tunes, Tom provides some nice vibes and pads to compliment that.”
Q: If you guys could collaborate with anyone, who would it be and why?
“We would have to say Mikal and/or Mako, they are really onto some vibes at the moment, and their mixdowns just sound so fat each and every time, and their music is just so on point!”
Q: So finally, what can we expect from your podcast? There’s lots of new music in there that we haven't heard before. Which artists are you feeling at the moment?
“War, Hydro, Mako, Om Unit, Skeptical, Alix Perez, Signal, Commix, Cruk, Villem, Mcleod, Fields, Mikal, Arkaik, Phase, Bredren, Total Science, dBridge, Kid Drama, Jubei.”
A huge shout out to M-Zine & Scepticz, we hope you enjoy their mix as much as we did!
