June 22, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 038 – C-Rock
Warm welcome to our Lucid Artis roster and big thanks to C-Rock for The Lucid Podcast 038…
1. Lucidflow: How does a creative day look/feel like for you?
getting up, drinking good coffee, cooking good food, meeting/talking with friends and my family, some sports of course, riding bike, playing soccer, tennis and the most importing thig: Enjoying music, all kinds of music. Jazz, Rock, Indie, House and Techno. I have no certain rituals, there are too many things that inspire me and most of my days look very different. Which is good, somehow ;)
2. Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?
well, bad people, bad moods, bad moves, people who are egocentric and not paying attention to other peoples lives and needs really suck up my energy. I am trying to be happy without making other people unhappy… most of the times this concept works out ;)
It rarely happens that I am in the studio and there is nothing coming out of my mind and hands. I have to admit this happens sometimes however I try to avoid the above standing downers to make sure my soul-battery has enough energy.
3. Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?
good food and sports and staying open minded in all areas are the main ingredients to feed my creative soul. And friends of course. Friendship and family is a gift, we should worship this, everyday, every second. Seeing other places all around the world and meet new people can be inspiring. And of course, the earth itself can be an amazing source of creativity. Seeing/feeling the ocean or the mountains, different exciting places and the energy these places have feed my brain xxl.
4. Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?
to be honest, I cannot remember ;)
I’ve followed the Lucidflow stuff over the last years and after all this time it feels like I know Nadja meanwhile, just by telling from what she does, writes, say, releases and so on. Music is a universal language and a very good tool of communication and understanding. I had this before with Brett Johnson from Dallas, Nacho Marco from Valencia, Ino and Grobas from La Coruña and many other people.
5. Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:
peace and health, as simple as big but almost illusionary. Of course there are other personal needs and wishes however I really think that health for me and my family and friends is the most important thing you can wish for.
6. Lucidflow: Anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
happiness, for yourself and for other people, is the key of life! Unfortunately ;)

June 05, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 037 – David Alvarado
it’s Lucid Podcast time again (snare roll)… facebook.com/DavidAlvaradoOfficial">David Alvarado crafted an exclusive dj set in a chicken house and answered some questions below… bock bock boooock… here you go! Thank you David :-)
1. Lucidflow: How does a creative day look/feel like for you?
My creative day usually starts with either movies or some sort of visual inspiration. I’m a very visual person, I see things and imagine them musically, sonically. I’m very inspired by my surroundings, if the sun is too bright I’m useless. I thrive in gray moody, rainy, environments. I also read quite a bit, sometimes phrases or words or even syntax inspires me. One of my favorite poets is E.E. Cummings and he is famous for his minimalism and use of syntax.
2. Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?
I over think. Over complicate things. I’m also obsessive compulsive. I need to have things in order or else they will bother me and keep me from being free in my mind to create.
3. Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?
I don’t try to force myself. I also have to eliminate as much distraction as possible. I know myself pretty well and what conditions feed my creativity so I do my best to ensure I only try to work under those conditions, otherwise I get frustrated and will become disinterested.
4. Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?
Good question, I don’t know lol. I don’t recall exactly, but I think it’s been a collision that has been progress for a while now. We just seem to have gravitated towards each other unconsciously. We seem to be made of the same sort of material, and I guess like minds seem to gravitate towards each other.
5. Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:
To buy a farm, make a studio in the barn, make goat cheese, and raise chickens…
6. Lucidflow: Anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
Beauty lies in the spaces in between and magic happens in the accidents.

May 20, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 036 – Jay Hill
From Brooklyn / New York comes The Lucid Podcast 036 by very talented and lovely Jay Hill… you can enjoy her mix while reading her answers to our little questionnaire. Happy weekend!
1. Lucidflow: How does a creative day look/feel like for you?
I wake up in Brooklyn to the sound of a chicken crowing next door. . . then hop on the L train and hear people serenading the underground subway world in many different forms (Brooklyn train stations have the best organic musicians) . . I find moments of inspiration all over NYC with the beauty of sounds surrounding me. by nightfall I am finally just “awake” and inspired, I turn off all the noise in my head to focus on studio work – tracks for my album or selecting music for my next set.
2. Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?
frequently remind myself that my calling is to remain the artist, and to draw into the music and hang out in the world in my headphones as much as possible.
3. Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?
getting distracted by stresses of life and/or too caught up in scene in NY. a lot of artists are so busy hustling around trying to get somewhere but they forget to actually “paint the canvas” so to speak. . .
4. Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?
I came across LF through my friend Deep Spelle who put out some amazing tracks and remixes on the label. I had been playing many LF tracks out in New York, the response from my dance floors kept me coming back as a solid “go-to” label.
5. Lucidflow: If you had infinite time & money what would you do?
study music production, make albums, then play a gig in every country in the world. I can only imagine the versatility I might have after that experience!
6. Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:
only one?! :)
I want people to “get it” when it comes to music. to me that means they understand underground music is not always about the “party.” DJ’s can often put up a front on stage but track selections are often the result of a lot of emotion going on in the background. this is the expression or artistry in it, and as a side note, this has nothing to do with being a male, female, or a race, color – it’s the human behind the art and nothing else. . .
6. Lucidflow: Anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
This is my first recorded mix in my new Brooklyn basement, and it was made with a lot of Lucidflow love. . . it has a lot of contrast, includes some of my favorite dance floor groovers and others I would never play on the dance floor, thus it’s a “canvas” :). thank you for having me

May 11, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 035 – Klartraum Live
1. Lucidflow: How does a creative day look/feel like for you?
Nadja: Waking up around 5:30 a.m. doing a proper workout on my sunny roof terrace (I love summer!), answering emails, working on some Lucidflow tasks, listening to one of my meditations and making music

Helmut: At the end of the day i sit fulfilled in my chair and i can listen to one or more joyful new music pieces.
2. Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?
Nadja: Going to bed too late so I feel exhausted. Self-sabotage. Don’t getting my needs met.

Helmut: Too much facebook. Too much unimportant things. Circular Thinking. Too much sugar. Fear.
Confusion. Unstabilizing myself with nonsense.

3. Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?
Nadja: Workout + meditation + shadow work on a daily basis. Listening to my inner voice, taking rests when i need them. Bringing awareness on my – as Eckhart Tolle calls it – Mental Noise that’s going on in my brain. Cleaning noises through Ho’oponoopono and EFT tapping techniques. Voice Dialogues with my inner aspects. 3-2-1 shadow process and Dr. Stephen Wolinsky’s questions in his numerous books. And lots of other techniques. Taking care of myself and appreciate my life with all it’s people/environment and possibilities in it.

Helmut: Learning the rule : Just do it. Supportive is meditation, yoga, shadow work, voice dialogue. Improving skills and Playfulness is also important.
4. Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?
Nadja: When Helmut and I founded Lucidflow we took down our ideas in a brainstorming session and Lucidflow was the outcome which we both think mirrors best the sound on our label. Voilà!

Helmut: It was an interesting voice dialogue session with Nadja.
5. Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:
Nadja: I wish all the fear in this world would dissolve… so all pain would dissolve as well and so would the urge to suppress/hide/fight/distrust/disgust/discount and so on…

Helmut: The breakthrough of the next level of consciousness and the empowerment of women worldwide (also in the electronic music field).

6. Lucidflow: Anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
Nadja: I highly recommend to read Stephen Wolinsky’s Books and practice the self-enquiries.

Helmut: I also highly recommend to inform yourself about the voice dialogue technique from Hal and Sidra Stone and William Buhlman and his view on out of body experiences.

April 27, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 034 – Dave Stuart
The Lucid Podcast 034…wicked dub set from Downunder! Thank you Dave Stuart!!! xxx
1. Lucidflow: How does a creative day look/feel like for you?
In a word busy…its not often I get as much time as Id like to work on music, at the moment im totally committed to djing, I am not overly concerned with production as of yet as I think production should be left to producers and djing to dj’s. I think there are way too many people trying to do both and only being able to be average at both (saying that though, there are a lot of exceptions to that…). I love djing and am not ready to start releasing tracks, so I want to leave that for a time in the future.
Okay that didn’t really answer the question did it? :P I think creativity cannot for forced, you are either are in the mood or you aren’t, though you have to give yourself the surroundings that allow you to be…
2. Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?
I love trying to broaden my mind as much as possible, this comes down to talking to as many different people as possible, reading books from all other the world, trying my best to give myself enough time to search & search for tracks….
Also I find coffee (in the mornings) and scotch (usually at night…) and my cat always put me in the right frame of mind.
3. Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?
In a simple answer by working too much, I always seem to have a million jobs and little projects on the go at one time. I have to have a 9-5 job to sustain my dj’ing, plus I also run events, and a touring company as well as DJing every weekend…..
4. Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?
My wonderful partner (and now wife…) was a massive fan of Nadjas music and was always showing me Nadja’s & Klartraum’s tunes and we both feel in love with the music. I was very happy to discover so much good music on the label, especially as I love the deeper dubby sounds. It was great to finally meet Nadja & Helmut last year when they toured Australia and stayed with us and played some gigs together.
5. Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:
I guess it’s a little clichéd, but id love to see more love in the world. If everyone tried to make everything they did in life to have a benefit for other people we’d all be a lot more happy.
6. Lucidflow: Anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
Play more dub ;)

April 10, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 033 – Lulu Rouge
we are over the moon to have Lulu Rouge from Denmark today offering you a terrific DUB session – hammock time!!! JAAAAH! THANK YOU GUYS – this mix was on repeat on my flight back from NY – perfect!
1. Lucidflow:how does a creative day look/feel like for you?
We meet up at nine in morning at the studio, having some breakfast and a small chat and then we go to “work”, being creative behind the computer and the other machines :) Around 13.00 we have some lunch and 30 min of chess just to clear the mind ! Then we go back to the play yard and work some more , and around 16.00 we take our bikes and ride home….Usually times flies super fast because we have fun, and once in a while there is also good music coming out of it :)
2. Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?
We are both dj’s and big music lovers so we spend loads of time (at least 2hours pr day)finding and listening to new music…..We also travel alot which gives us lots of new impressions and new sounds in our heads ! Another way to be creative is to be updated with new plugins & machines, which challenge yourself into trying new stuff and ideas. Reading music magazines and checking out youtube tutorials can also give a boost sometimes :)
3. Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?
You are sometimes your own worst enemy…..All the things, machine and methods you have learned to perfection and feel comfortable with, is sometimes what stops you exploring and being creative, because you tend to do what you have always done !
4. Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?
Our good friend Jean Von Baden played us a fantastic track from one of the Ludcidflow podcast .
5. Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:
Make sure everybody had shelter, food and the same rights all over the World….Peace, Love & Unity

March 31, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 032 – Darius Bassiray – Part 1
Lucidflow:how does a creative day look/feel like for you?
Interesting question and very open ended. Creativity I believe has a direct correlation to the environment in which you surround yourself in – it cannot be forced. Up until recently, I felt in some ways that I was doing this, as I had limited time to devote to creative pursuits, a direct result of balancing my time.
On a personal note, for nearly 8 years, I was a venue manager at one of Melbourne’s biggest house and techno clubs, Brown Alley. Almost my entire life revolved around running the event side of the business, including DJing, producing and event management, and at the same time, trying to write music, DJ each week, run a label, and travelling in between. For example, once I had a gig in Buenos Aires and I left Melbourne on a Wednesday stayed there for only one night then flew straight back to Melbourne, went straight from the airport to the club for my event that very night. These types of experiences definitely helped to build my character and I learned a great deal from my time there.
However, all of this left little time for my own creative pursuits, so I made the decision to leave last month and since then, I have found myself being very productive, positive, and much more spontaneous. For instance, the day after I left, I sat in a park with my laptop and a controller for hours and hours, experimenting with sound, something I never previously had the freedom to even consider! I’m very thankful for my experience throughout that time – the events, people, artists and good times shared definitely influenced my creativity and ambitions for the future. I never thought when I attended my first Sunny party at 19 years of age that it would change my life. I’ll never forget those days and I honestly believe when it comes to musical creativity, you always have a strong affinity with the sound you first fell in love with. I guess that’s why so much of my sound is associated with various forms of low slung, deep music.
Having said that, inspiration for me usually comes after heading out and watching a DJ that really takes it to the next level, and I equally get inspiration watching a DJ who is very uninspiring, one dimensional or pedestrian – it makes me want to write music. Every now and then, you see someone who completely changes your perspective on things and the experience stays with you forever. Recently I had the pleasure of seeing Andrew Weatherall play at a great club, Nu Guernica in Melbourne, and his approach instantly resonated with me. It reminded me of the uncompromising hypnotic style I heard played by the resident DJs at some of the first parties I attended, but with a modernised flavor and unique sleaze that was a game changer for me, big time. I admired Weatherall’s patience – standing on the floor, I gauged he was at 111 BPM 2 hours in, and the place was heaving – a true programmer who basically doesn’t give a fuck – I like that. I went home, showered from sweating up a storm – I haven’t danced 4 hours straight since I was a pup ;) and got to work in the studio. I’m inspired by DJs and producers who have the ability to interest me in a piece of music that outside of that context, I perhaps wouldn’t have considered, but the manner in which they play it, present it, or program then makes sense to me.
Phil K is a major influence for this reason also, along with his technical skills and ability to get himself out on any situation. He has taught me that there are no rules, and if you have the balls and ability to program music in a way that makes sense to you, then an audience will eventually trust you and will go wherever you take them.
The role of a DJ is to entertain, but it’s evident when there’s no self belief in what you play. I now hear things in a different way – whether it’s a vocal from one of my dad’s Persian records, or a sound score from a scene in a documentary, link -> https://soundcloud.com/darius-bassiray/darius-bassiray-sound-score
https://soundcloud.com/darius-bassiray/darius-bassiray-if-your-alone
It can work, you just need to find your balls and find your flavor. This happened recently – it was about 4am and I was watching rage on TV, and heard a riff from this Sade tune that was performed live – instantly I went and wrote a (tasteful I hope) re-edit / remix of it. know touching a piece of music such as this can be sacrilegious, i hope i kept and maintained the integrity of the original as well as giving it a bit of my own personal flavor. Link->
https://soundcloud.com/darius-bassiray/sade-love-is-found-darius/comments
Matt Radovich is another source of inspiration for me due to his diverse range of music that he plays and his ability to adapt him self to any environment, I admire his attitude and demeanor which correlates directly to how he performs as an artist.
But the best way I can answer this question “what does creativity look / feel like” in a wider sense, is that in age of electronic music being more and more generic and dare I say easy to make, if you listen to an artist and can instantly identify their individual style, then this is the very essence of what this question means. Look at artists like Mathew Jonson, one chord and you know it’s him. Listen to a Habersham record or to James Holden, or Apparat record, same with Lusine – they don’t imitate, they innovate and do so in a manner that does not date –they are true artists. Good music will always have longevity and will remain timeless.
I am now at a point now where I can translate what I’m feeling creatively with greater ease, and with more time devoted to music this will only come more naturally to me I think.
External forces and factors play a big part in creativity and the quality of your output. I believe two of my favourite productions have been written under two dramatically different circumstances, one being tragic inspiration due to the recent death of my best friend’s brother. After spending the night with them after the funeral = I went home and wrote a record in one take, using an emotive vocal I spent hours sourcing and the track flowed naturally, Last week, it again invoked tears when I heard it played on John Digweed’s Transitions radio show – not something you can listen to every day but how can you control creativity? This will be a very special release on Text Book Music soon – link ->
https://soundcloud.com/darius-bassiray/mike-callander-still-lost
https://soundcloud.com/darius-bassiray/darius-bassiray-if-your-alone
Another example is a remix I made after being stuck in a hotel room for days far from home after playing in Melbourne the night before. The inspiration and environment in which these two records were written couldn’t have been more different, but this goes to show – the urge to create can come from all kind of places. Link->
I am not a producer who has 15000 unfinished projects, if I’m finding something doesn’t work then I bin it, simple.
In the end, life and everything it throws at you affects your output.
Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?
You mean what hinders me from being creative? Well, priorities play a big factor. Relationships and not neglecting those you love at the expense of making music, is something you learn over time. It is important to understand there needs to be a balance in all aspects involved in your life. Easier said than done sometimes however.
Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?
If you mean financially, well it’s not easy. I worked corporate for 2 years after studying at university but it was not something I enjoyed. I recently saw one of the most inspirational videos I have ever seen which sums up the answer to this question better than I could ever articulate in words. See it here ->
I then formed my own touring company, Funf – www.funf.com.au and am writing music. I recently got engaged, and all these decisions combined have me feeling the happiest I have ever been.
Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?
I first came across Nadja Lind through mutual friends in Melbourne and through SLAM who sent her my music as they thought she would like it.
I shared their music with my good friend Muska, and he fell in love with it, so we invited Nadja and Helmut to play at one of our event in Melbourne, along with Lusine and Robert Babicz. I am very thankful for the opportunity they have given me to present this podcast.
Although I do play a very ‘Lucidflow’ style of techno, my DJ scope is also very broad which is why I decided to do a 6 hr podcast for this. It will be split into two parts and played over the next month. It has been one of the biggest artistic challenges I have ever encountered in my musical career to be honest, a solid 5 month process. My goal was to showcase how I play when I am given an extended set time length which really only happens when I DJ outside of my home city Melbourne. The challenge not only was to present a cohesive well programmed set but to for it make sense if people only listen to it in sections as opposed to the full 6 hours which most may only listen to in full on long drives or at home at an after party for instance, Also as it features ambient , electronica, world music, deep house, techno, btrakbeat, and everything in between it really has been a challenge and extremely testing at times – but it was also very rewarding. I hope you guys like it. Big thanks must go to Rhonda, my fiancé, for being there for me throughout this challenge – I have enjoyed the experience. I also need to acknowledge all the artists – Habersham, Phil K, Jay Tripwire, Chris Fortier, Delic, Kriece, Sasha, Muska, Altruism, Paul Beynon, Mike Callander, Tornado Wallace and many others, who either wrote music especially for it, or gave me exclusive tracks. Most of all, thanks to Nadja Lind for her patience and Caroline Beynon for her support J
Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:
As cliche as it sounds, just to be happy in life and relationships, be content and to hopefully pass on some knowledge I’ve learned along the way to others who may get the same great opportunities I have been fortunate enough to have had thrown my way. Currently, I’m working in partnership with some other industry leaders, setting up a platform to do just that, so watch this space!
Lucidflow: Anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
Thanks for having me guys and I hope you like the podcast. The next 3 hours will air in a few weeks, watch this space. On the production front I have remix coming out on Haul Music soon -. link, I’ve just released a new record ‘Coma’ on Manual Music – link
https://soundcloud.com/darius-bassiray/darius-bassiray-coma
and I have an original “If You’re Lost I’ll Be Your Shadow’ coming out on Text Book Music with remixes from Jay Tripwire, Deepchild, Chris Fortier, Kasey Taylor, Habesham, Altruism, and Paul Beynon link -> as well as a remix for Kriece’s Kindred Sounds. I am also touring Europe for the first time in August so I’m really looking forward to that.
My new company Funf www.funf.com.au – and we have some really exciting events and tours with the likes of Jeff Mills, Axel Boman, Wbeeza, The Revenge, Cosmin TRG, Len Faki, Robert Hood, Chris Fortier, Oxia, Sasha Dive, Genius Of Time and many more coming up so im going to be a pretty busy man ;)
Im also in the process of launching my own website www.dariusbassiray.com and www.textbook-music.com
Thanks for your time J

Philosophy, stars, nature, long walks, shared contemplation and spending time with animals. ….oh, yes and occasional chunk of fine chocholate..:)
how do you hinder yourself from being creative?
Taking orders from others… :-)
how did you come across Lucidflow?
Well, we had a dream of sharing our music with the world, that dream led us to Night Drive Music where we came across Klartraum and from there followed their work to Lucidfow.

how does a creative day look/feel like for you?
Hmmmm…..I can’t even say as i don’t think i am very creative.
When i make some tracks i just start somewhere and the rest is try and error…so not what people call a creative process. My tracks happen by accident.
how do you support yourself in being creative?
I have to force myself to sit down in the morning and start to work
how do you hinder yourself from being creative?
as i already said i don’t think i am creative. my tracks are pure maths…not more and not less.
and maybe 25 years experience in djing.
so nothing has a negative effect on my creativity as there is none
how did you come across Lucidflow?
i’ve known nadja a while now….dont even know how and when we met….
tell us one of your greatest wishes:
my greatest wish is health for my family…thats it
anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
i am pretty happy with my life so i don’t have any other wishes

February 17, 2013 The Lucid Podcast: 029 – Roberto Clementi
here’s some fresh deep sounds for you mixed by Roberto Clementi. Thanks for your music and answering our little interview:
how does a creative day look/feel like for you?
It all depend, sometime my music could reflect an hard working day in a one caotic city, sometimes could be my music research from old recorded tape collection, sometimes I play my hardware synths and find the right inspiration
how do you support yourself in being creative?
Listening a lot of music, changing my studio setup, speaking with people to compare different visions.
how do you hinder yourself from being creative?
In dub techno and electronic music I’ve found my dimension, so is easy for me to be creative. The problem is that when you try to make a fresh sound, sometimes the labels doesn’t like because is too different from you past release, but is not a problem because if you keep a good work you will find who believe in your projects.
how did you come across Lucidflow?
looking on vinyls chart, and following artist that I like that are releasing here.
tell us one of your greatest wishes:
Probably atm my big wish is to see people love, smiling and respect more each others.

anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?
Living with music… in Italy is not easy, I’m looking for a good agency out of my country
