    #138 Shackleton: Bass, mystery, and devastating beauty, "adding too much literal narrative misses the point of the music"

    *****ANNOUNCEMENT***** Join us for the first ever Not A Diving Club at fabric in London on Thursday 24 Oct, an evening of chat and unreleased bangers from 8pm til late. DJs on the night will be Minder b2b Machine Woman Oneman b2b Lu.Re T.Williams b2b Tasha Scuba b2b Braille This will be a FREE ENTRY EVENT but you must be on the advance signup list to get in -> sign up here. --- To call Shackleton an enigmatic figure would be to understate the case, especially in the context of the modern music scene. The requirements of the modern musician to constantly explain themselves, preferably direct to camera on social media, are so far from the operating system of this week's guest as to be entirely alien. So to welcome him to the podcast is a great privilege. A co-founder of the legendary Skull Disco label, veteran of the embryonic dubstep scene, and subsequent traveller through musical psychedelia, he's a producer with an instantly recognisable style who has managed to develop it in surprising ways while keeping absolutely true to his musical principles. This is an extremely rare Shackleton interview so there was much to discuss, and we get deep into his highly prolific recent catalogue, his transplant to Germany and relationship with his home country, as well as that formative period in the movement that became known as dubstep. This is a big episode and a great conversation, you're gonna love it If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

    #137 Kölsch: Small clubs, festivals, and the community, "No-one cares about the local talent anymore"

    *****ANNOUNCEMENT***** Join us for the first ever Not A Diving Club at fabric in London on Thursday 24 Oct, an evening of chat and unreleased bangers from 8pm til late. This will be a FREE ENTRY EVENT but you must be on the advance signup list to get in -> sign up here. On with the show... Rune Reilly Kölsch is one of the biggest names on the melodic techno circuit, a long time member of the Kompakt Records roster and collaborator with names including previous NDP guest Tiga and Jane's Addiction frontman and part-time boxer Perry Farrell.  He's also a very thoughtful guy with a huge amount of experience, having released his first record back in 1995, so a perfect guest for the show. We cover the small clubs vs festivals debate, the recent question of should big acts lower their fees to play small venues, the history of the scene in his home town of Copenhagen, and his process of making music. We also get into the impact and legacy of the EDM boom of the early 2010s, and the extent of his direct involvement in it. This is a really good one with some great insights, you're gonna love it.

    #136 Jerome Hill: London squat parties and UK Techno, "Musically it was pretty rough round the edges"

    *****ANNOUNCEMENT***** Join us for the first ever Not A Diving Club at fabric in London on Thursday 24 Oct. Full details to follow but this will be a FREE ENTRY EVENT but you must be on the advance signup list to get in -> sign up here. The term 'underground hero' is often bandied about the dance scene with not much of a definition and in many cases an inappropriate target. But this week's guest is very much a plausible recipient of the accolade. A veteran of the techno scene in London since the cutting his teeth as a teenager in the early 90s, Jerome Hill has made the records, played the gigs, run the labels, and served records from the behind the counter of shops including the seminal Dragon Discs in Camden Town. We get into the mid 90s squat party scene in this episode, a key aspect of UK techno and something which I was very much aware of at the time but didn't experience at all first hand. And we also get a eye witness account of the legendary south London venue Club UK, which was closed down after years of police raids and controversy in 1996. This is a great conversation with an important figure in UK techno, you're gonna enjoy it! If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

    #135 Josh Wink: Philly, fame, and Higher States, "I didn't know there'd be a living in making music"

    *****ANNOUNCEMENT***** Join us for the first ever Not A Diving Club at fabric in London on Thursday 24 Oct. Full details to follow but this will be a FREE ENTRY EVENT but you must be on the advance signup list to get in -> sign up here. Back in the 90s, classic records were being released seemingly every week. So for one of your tracks to make it into the annual top ten really meant something. But what if you had three in a single year? That was 1995 for this week's guest, and the short period in which he released Don't Laugh, I'm Ready, and Higher States Of Consciousness was always going to be a defining one in the history of the music itself, let alone the story of the actual producer. It's possibly just as much of an achievement that Josh subsequently managed to escape the legacy of those monster records and build a lasting career on the global circuit, and it's that longevity that makes this such a great conversation. We talk about the musical influence of his home town of Philadelphia, the early US rave scene, the pivotal role of college radio, the challenges and opportunities of today's industry, and of course the experience and aftermath of 1995. This is a good one... of course it is! If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

    #134 Truncate: The return of minimal? "People will always look back to whatever was big before"

    What are we all doing here anyway? That's a question I've asked myself recently, not in purely existential terms so much as continuing to pursue some sort of platonic ideal of dance music. Something that means so many different things to so many different people. Truncate is a key man in the world of Techno, a producer who i suspected might have been the most played artist on Aslice (he denies this), and a key DJ who spins all over the world. He's also a man of opinions and observations and therefore a great guest for this show. We talk about topical stuff like the Aslice thing, the prevalence of DJ tools, and the influence of DJ tech on the music, as well as digging into his history and local scene in southern California. I use far too much profanity in this episode, but don't worry about that - this was a fun with a key man in the scene and you're gonna enjoy it!
