Ransom Note

Expect the unexpected. That's the philosophy Rotterdam-based DJ mad miran promotes in her DJ sets. A regular on the Dutch capital's mainstay Red Light Radio and a face behind the counter at the infamous Clone record shop, Miran has fast become one of the country's most promising DJs.

Although she only played her first DJ set in a club a couple of years ago, she's already landed a residency at Trouw successor De School and become part of the Strange Sounds From Beyond family, seeing her name spread like wildfire and lead to a string of gigs across Europe.

We invited her to dive into her record bag for us and the result is 80 minutes of leftfield electro, raw breaks and introspective electronica. Enter into the crazy world of mad miran...

Byron Yeates co-runs one of the best underground nights in Berlin right now. Alongside friends Amelia Forrest and Jochem Van Bruggen they put on Radiant Love, a forward-thinking queer party, of which they are a resident too. Their ethos is built on celebrating inclusivity with a focus on contemporary performance art and drag, and after only one year of parties they've built a loyal and loving family around them. What's so special about Radiant Love is the energy and passion the three of them put into each night, you can literally feel it...

After catching Byron in action at their December party we knew we had to lock them in for a mix; they have a distinct sound that traverses through rolling trance, acid and rave, at times euphoric, but always with palpable depth.

Now then, what do we have here?

E-Talking is a producer with whom you might not be familiar, at least not by name. You might well be more aware of him as one half of the French duo Nummer, a prominent pair who have released a great deal of impressive music on the likes of Butter Sessions, Going Good, Peur Bleue, Fragil Music and on their own imprint. They also boast a killer live show, one of which blew the roof off a Glasgow basement when 12th Isle hosted them many years back.

The pair have also recently launched a new label focussing on releasing abstract electronics, experimental music and balearic abstract sounds from across the globe on an imprint called Natural Selections.

Which brings us back to the focus of todays mix, E-Talking. One half of the outfit who has also independently released music on the likes of Whities, drawing for a slightly more hard hitting approach than perhaps anticipated. There's more to come, just you watch.

He steps up on a Friday with an intriguing mix for head and feet. Dig in.

Earlier this year we were presented with an intriguing release by Glasgow based record label Craigie Knowes. It was a curveball of sorts given the dancefloor ethos of the imprint and the prior material to have previously featured on the label. The leading light from the EP came in the form of a track titled "Say". A beautiful, haunting vocal inspired track with a sense of beautiful melancholy, not too dissimilar to the musical output of Andy Stott.

The EP was the work of an up and coming producer and disc jockey, Eluize. A promising, elegant musician keen to blur the preconceptions of electronic music - layering the concept of 'song' above the moody, enchanted density of rugged analogue machinery.

As such we invited her to record a mix for the site, an ambient affair perfect for a lazy easter monday...
