Fractal Club Podcast Fractal Club

Ahead of tonight's party at The Mash House, we asked Overground head Wrisk to put together a mix showcasing his infuences & tastes. Within a few days he fired us back this multi-genre, foot stomping badboy.

James had this to say,

"As a music hoarder, the hardest thing about doing a mix without any restrictions is narrowing down a tracklist. I made a playlist of a few hundred digi tracks and selected a stack of records with a vague idea of where I wanted it to go and a few transitions in mind but it was for the most part improvised. 95% was recorded live on two turntables (with Traktor DVS for the digi tracks) and the ambient sections were done in Ableton as well as a few tweaks here and there. It covers genres from new wave to jungle, tempos from 110-170bpm and jumps between moods and energy levels, but despite this I feel that there's a constant thread running throughout which is what I was aiming for!"

Bravo sir!

Catch Wrisk tonight at The Mash House for more of the same...

Issue 8 of the Fractal Club Podcast comes from an up and coming DJ who has recently caught our eye with a series of impressive mixtapes.

Scott Johnstone, or Scud - is a Fife local, and has been seeking out the best parties in Scotland since he was 16.

Drawing his influences from some of our countries most revered tastemakers, Scud counts the Firecracker Recordings Crew (Fudge Fingas / Linkwood / House of Traps), and J.D Twitch & J.G Wilkes of Optimo (Espacio) as his main inspirations, with records from International label's like Dekmantel, Smallville and Giegling featuring regularly in his record bag.

In this mix, Scud brings together tracks from Hunee, D-IX, and our own resident duo Hi + Saberhägen to create a smooth, melodic and driving summer soundscape. Perfect for BBQ season.

Enjoy!
