Yarn Audio’s 15th podcast was mixed by Ikpathua (@ikpathua), a London based producer and DJ who previously released on Noorden (@noorden)and just recently released a limited edition tape on Cong Burn (@cong-burn) together with Anxiety Support Group.

Ikpathua has been active as a DJ and record-collector for over 20 years, but didn’t start making music until about 8 years ago when his brother moved to Panama and left him all of his studio equipment, including a couple of gems (MC-202, and an Echopet Delay).

Make sure to have a listen at his recent Cong Burn tape, which features a 30 minute stream of unreleased Ikpathua gems.

Bedim is a DJ from Vilnius, Lithuania and was a part of the Despotin Beat Club radio-show / movement (@despotin).

The thing radio taught me is that the most surprising music often is found on the B-side. The stuff that you usually skip in search for a banger or a track that would be DJ friendly, easy to mix. With this installment I try to explore Folk / Ambient / Classical music, which happens to be mostly Japanese, and create an interesting and quirky sonic piece that I would enjoy listening to.

@dylanmhowe / @portlandcompressor / @c_plus_plus

Dylan M Howe is a musician based out of Portland, Oregon. He has released music and performed under the name C Plus Plus from 2014 to 2017 and is one half of the duos Portland Compressor and Action Sports with long-time collaborator Matthew Pepitone (aka Karmelloz).

Most recently, the duo released the album «Action Sports» on Barcelona based label Angoisse (@angoisse). The album mixes moody ambient techno with leftfield ambient constructions, all with a heavy dose of dub. The duo also recently released the second volume of their Portland Compressor series, which mixes melodic electronica with post-rock tendencies.

This mix was recorded on Pioneer CDJ-1000s with tracks that were largely compiled from CDs from Dylan’s recently totaled 1998 Subaru, alongside a few unreleased solo tracks and a forthcoming Action Sports track. The mix moves between glitchy soundscapes, industrial electronics, downtempo beats and ambient bits of techno.

01. Ian Boddy – Into View

02. Action Sports – Subj] Scarcely A Ripple

03. Gramm – Non-Relations

04. Butch Maltese – Kiyana

Berlin based Dj and producer Teenage Tasteless (@teenage-tasteless) delivers an eclectic mix for our 10th podcast layering vinyl, digital audio files and tapes.

>In the nineties I was a rave kid but all my friends where goths and now I can’t tell the difference anymore. I always listened to hip hop but felt secretly embarrassed for the German kids wearing baggypants in school.

Musically I started as a DJ and moved on to produce tracks to incorporate them in my sets. Later I started a band and disbanded it again because the music I had in mind was way to complicated to play for just three humans with such humble skills as ours. Now I still use the guitar as a sound source as much as the synths and editing techniques I’ve accumulated over the years.

*Some of his favourite records in no particular order:*

- Zoviet France – Loh Land

- Aphex Twin – I Care Because You Do

- Digable Planets – Blowout Comb

- Sonic Youth – Experimental Jet Set, Trash And No Star

- Squarepusher – Feed Me Weird Things

- Bauhaus – Mask

- Liaisons Dangereuses – Liaisons Dangereuses

- Dopplereffekt – Gesamtkunstwerk

@tobs1312

For Yarn Audio’s 9th podcast we have an energetic mix from Tobs – a producer and DJ from Bremen / Germany – whose remix of Joy Orbison’s «Hypth Mngo» you might have heard on our latest free EP «Bootlegs I».

Tobs got in touch with electronic music – especially Techno and Jungle – at the young age of 12. When some years later the symbiosis of broken and straight styles started to blend and Dubstep and Techno began to move closer together he started to buy records and had his first gigs at the Zucker Club in Bremen.

In 2014 Tobs founded the record label Drowned Records together with four friends. Their fifth release is currently in the making. Make sure to check out Tobs’ latest release on Drowned!

Yarn Audio’s 8th podcast has been mixed by George McVicar (@georgemcvicar), a 22 year old producer and DJ living in London / UK. George is also part of the «Stray Landings» (@stray-landings) collective, a blog and label which has become more and more established in recent times. Along with fellow Stray Landings editor Stavrogin (@theodm), George has furthermore began producing experimental industrial music under the name Aa3_Tzt.[RN500] (@aa3_tzt-rn500) – with their debut release on the horizon.

«This mix was partly inspired by a couple of shows I had played in the past with the Stray Landings collective. It's all on vinyl and although this means the sound is a bit dusty and the mixes less slick, I think this is a pretty good representation of what a live set from me would sound like.»

DE:

Yarn Audio’s achter Podcast wurde von George McVicar (@georgemcvicar) gemixt, einem 22-jährigem Produzenten und DJ aus London. George ist Teil des »Stray Landings« (@stray-landings)Kollektivs, welches ein Blog und Label betreibt und in letzter Zeit für immer mehr Aufsehen sorgt. Zusammen mit dem Stray Landings Redakteur »Stavrogin« (@theodm) produziert George unter dem Namen »Aa3_Tzt.[RN500]« (@aa3_tzt-rn500) außerdem experimentellen Industrial-Techno. Das Debut-Release wird nicht mehr lange auf sich warten lassen…

»Dieser Mix wurde von einigen Auftritten in letzter Zeit inspriert, bei denen ich zusammen mit dem Stray Landings-Kollektiv gespielt habe. Alle Tracks sind auf Vinyl. Auch wenn der Mix dadurch etwas angestaubt klingt und die Übergänge nicht 100% glatt sind, gibt er trotzdem einen guten Einblick, wie sich ein Liveset von mir anhören könnte.«

Tracklist:

Aardvark - Yogya

Truncate - Dial

Bandshell- Rise 'Em

Roman Poncet - Cerete

Tom Diccico - Physical

James Ruskin - Slit

Ontal - Disorientation

Oni Ayhun - OAR004-A

Perc - Bleeding Colours (Untold Remix)

Henrik B - Logos

Robert Hood - And Then We Planned Our Escape

Ed Davenport & Oliver Deutschmann - Trump

Call Super - Depicta

Lakker - K'antu

Objekt - Agnes Demise

Demdike Stare - Null Results

Claude Debussy - Pour les Accords [slowed down]

Yarn Audio presents another unique mix. The man behind the decks is SUB.FM resident and former netlabel-activist Simon/off (@simon-off). He has released his fusion of melodic house, banging garage and percussive bass on labels like Phuture Shock (@phutureshockmusik), B.YRSLF Division (@byrslf_division), Syncopathic (@sub) and disko404 (@disko404) since 2005 and was already remixed by hardware enthusiast Bass Clef.

Simon/off is not only a versatile musician, but also an experienced party maker. So it’s no surprise, that his installment of Yarn’s podcast series is one of the most banging and personal mixtapes in the label’s history. UK vibes encounter broken house beats, dodgy breaks and dreamy melodies. Does it make sense to put Simon/off’s wonderful selection into words? Just give it a listen and swing away…
