@anthony-rother is a stone cold electronic music legend. He’s put out 20 albums since his debut in 1997, and run the Psi49net and Datapunk imprints, which have more or less defined the electro genre. Lately, he’s been back with a vengeance, releasing the “3L3C7RO COMMANDO” LP on his own label, as well as EPs for DVS1’s Mistress Recordings and of course Danny Daze’s Omnidisc. His DJ sets these days are comprised of his own unreleased music specifically tailored for dancefloors. Rother is a dream booking for The Bunker who we still kind of can’t believe is coming to play our collaborative party with Omnidisc on November 1 (more details at http://bit.ly/omnibunker ).

This edition of The Bunker Podcast comes from our label artist @leisuremuffin, who has been holding things down in New Orleans for a few years now. It's essentially an all improvised live set!

Check his release for our label, the very first thing he put out:

artist statement:

"Performed live for the Mystery Zone party at Poor Boys in NOLA. The first 42 minutes of this are completely improvised live, meaning that there were no stored sequences or pre-recorded audio. Just a small 6u eurorack modular, a DSI Tempest with a couple kits to choose from, and an iPad to handle sync, simple looping, and mixing. I've been playing all of my free form sets like this (minus the Tempest) for a while now, but I hadn't played for an actual dance floor in probably more than a year. I had just flown back from New York where I played one of those free sets at Wonderville in Brooklyn (go check it out on my bandcamp!), and had about 3 days to get this together. I had cheerfully assumed that I could just toss the Tempest in there, crank it up, and practice for a few days, but that wasn't the case. It took me the whole 3 days to sort out how to technically integrate the Tempest into the iPad setup so I got maybe an hour of practice with everything working on the day of the event. I showed up at the event more nervous than I've ever been at a gig, but somehow managed to reasonably pull it off. I did eventually chicken out and play some sequences I had in the Tempest from ages ago. Those start at around the 42 min mark."

this edition of The Bunker Podcast comes from San Francisco's DJ CZ (@c_z-1), aka Chris Zaldua. There he puts on @surfacetension-sf events and runs the @lefthandpathwax imprint with @niharb, who also turned in an edition of The Bunker Podcast earlier this year.

artist statement:

"This mix was crafted on two XDJ-1000s and an Allen & Heath mixer in one take. It's sort of a snapshot of where I'm at as a DJ these days, and contains a lot of music I'd play in the club and some I wouldn't. It's not techno, but it's not not-techno. It's not drum'n'bass, but it's not not-drum'n'bass, either. What really interests me is music that's slippery and difficult to define and exists in multiple spaces at once, and that's pretty much what I consider all of these tunes to be. Perhaps the best way to summarize it is in the immortal words of Uwe Schmidt aka Atom™ aka Fonosandwich:

They call it donut

But it doesn't have a hole."

The Bunker Podcast was started back in 2007 when barely any electronic music podcasts existed if you can imagine such a thing. This was pre-Soundcloud when file hosting was expensive and most people didn't understand how to publish an RSS feed, and portable digital recorder technology wasn't that advanced yet. In the early days, the podcast was made up entirely of sets recorded at The Bunker parties. At some point artists went from being super excited that we wanted to put their sets online and knew how to do it, to being really squeamish about putting out "imperfect" sets recorded in a live context. So we more or less took some years off from podcasting sets. In recent years, we started releasing sets that weren't necessarily recorded at the party and the podcast picked up steam again. In any case, it's nice that The Bunker Podcast 200 is actually a recording from a party, and even nicer that it's brought to you by our long term resident DJ, Derek @plaslaiko.

artist statement: "This was recorded at a party thrown by the crew at WYA Chicago in early August, 2019. The party itself was incredible! Great sound in a perfect sized room filled with people that were completely going off! Can’t really ask for much more than that. I wanted this to be a Bunker Podcast because I think it’s a great example of how I strive to play every time. This one is a 3 hour long “storytelling” set covering house and techno and everything that falls between. Mostly new tracks with a few classics peppered in to push the buttons on a few of my friends who came out. I hope you enjoy listening to it, as I sure as hell had fun recording it."

After decades of a friendship birthed in Detroit and many gigs together, Magda (@magda-official) and @mikeservito took their "Highkicks and Necksnaps" party on a North American tour this June. Their busy schedule took them to seven different cities in ten nights. This is a recording of them playing together on the final night of the tour at Good Room (@goodroombk) in Brooklyn.

We've been wanting a podcast from midwest techno legend Noncompliant (@noncompliant1) for quite some time and are excited that it's finally come to fruition. After playing out steadily in the midwest since the 90's under the name DJ Shiva, she began putting out records as Noncompliant a few years ago and finally got the well deserved worldwide recognition as the dance floor slayer that she had always been.

Noncompliant's statement: "This mix was recorded at home in Indianapolis. I wanted to go deep and trippy and still facemelty, and this is what happened."

How emotional can you get on a dance floor? Love Letters - Cast Off is part of our decades-long exploration of this question. A stunningly confident four track EP that harnesses the power of deep rave with twisted up vocals, acid lines and techniques drawn from the best of classic house topology storming propulsively into the future. Love Letters is NY-based designer and musician Maxime Robillard whose creative process for both design and music often begins from the same consideration of function, “What is the use, what is the environment. How do I want people to move through or move to the sounds? Movement is integral to my creative process.”

Robillard goes on to share the particular story behind this EP: “This EP was made after a major accident in my life. Two of the tracks were made with both arms in a cast, and in a way this can be listened to as a love letter to my connection with this kind of music, with the community I have found on the dance floor, and with particular sounds. It acts as a document of my gratitude that after the accident I am alive and well and can still enjoy the music and world that I’ve dedicated so much of myself to.”

Our newest podcast is from Dona aka DJ Plant Texture (@dona-sound). This nearly 3 hour set is a recording of his opening for DJ Stingray at Ways Party in South Of Italy. Dona says: "It goes in different direction since I had to fight with turntables problems and cdj problem but I loved the fact that I had to fight against technology for do my job".
