FMB MIXTAPE 48 | REBOLLEDO

Posted on June 2, 2016 by Feel My Bicep

rebolledo

Kompakt affiliate Rebolledo has turned in an ace weird and wonderful mix. He also makes up one half of Pachanga Boys, as usual we asked him a few questions. His new album is out now!

“Working like crazy with the release of my new solo album “Mondo Alterado” on Hippie Dance which was last May 27th… at the same time pretty intense touring and getting ready new releases for Hippie Dance and You And Your Hippie Friends (our little sub label ).

The mix was recorded at home in Paris… I have a little set up in a corner where I can do my thing. It was done with both formats, vinyl and digital as I don´t have everything in hard copy…

I basically wanted you to feel my bicep… which is not particularly strong, but solid. 

In a similar way to how I mix in front of a crowd, I mixed old stuff with new, personal classics, some of my own and most of it from friends and people I like…”

Up Next…

“Summer is looking pretty intense… lots of touring coming up mostly Rebolledo but some very special Pachangas also programmed, continuing to promote my album… A couple of times in the next months I´ll have the chance to combine work and pleasure going to Mexico and visiting my family which is always a great escape…”

FMB MIXTAPE 47 | SANDBOARDS

Posted on May 26, 2016 by Feel My Bicep

sandboard

Sandboards are two young guns from New Zealand who did a good job warming up for us when we played over on their shores last year. We are excited to share new music from these later this year, more news to follow in due course. As always we asked them a few questions.

We have pretty much just been working on tracks flat out!

We would love to have a cooler answer for this but the mix was recorded on Serato in the comfort of Toms room.

Its really just a bunch of tracks we are feeling/want to share. We made a conscious effort to include some New Zealand talent.

We are currently waiting on our debut release test pressing on Cold Tonic  records. We have a bunch of cool releases planned for this year and cant wait to share them with the world. We have a few local gigs lined up but nothing major at this stage.

FMB MIXTAPE 46 | NATHAN JONSON

Posted on May 12, 2016 by Feel My Bicep

hrdvison

This mixtape comes courtesy of Canada’s Nathan Jonson, known for his production and DJing talents over the last decade as Hrdvsion, with releases on the likes of Rinse, Wagon Repair and International Deejay Gigolo. 

Now performing under his birth name, Nathan continues to excite with his innovative and striking sound. As always we got in touch to see what he’s up to…

“Just this past week I moved to eastern Canada. I am originally from the west so it’s quite exciting. Like a whole new, but somehow still familiar, country.

I began working on the track listing while still in Germany, and mixed it all in the basement of our new home in Canada. I haven’t had carpeted floor under my feet in a long time as all of my apartments in Berlin had hard wood floors. I’d like to think you can hear the comfort coming through in the mixes, and the hard wood in the track listing.

This mix is all about travel, whether it’s by car, train, bus, or plane. Gliding from one place to the next.

There are a couple records lined up at the moment. A pair of ambient songs coming out on lo bit landscapes and another more electro duo I wrote in Utrecht last year at Stekker Studio coming out with 20/20 Vision. Both were made possible by Sonar Traffic’s extreme generosity. Rumour has it there might be a couple remixes on it as well that I’m quite thrilled about. Not too much else at the moment though musically….mostly just writing with each song containing even more melodic content than the last.”

FMB MIXTAPE 45 | BRAME & HAMO

Posted on April 28, 2016 by Feel My Bicep

brame&hamo

Irish boys currently residing in Berlin: Brame & Hamo have just been announced for the Boiler Room at AVA Festival, ahead of that they have turned in a mix for our podcast series. Check the AVA Festival Boiler Room Line up here and get your tickets here.  As usual we fired some questions over to them:

“Lots of gigs recently, we played in Colombia a couple of weeks ago. That was nuts, Tiarnan got really sick though after eating a sketchy burger. that put studio time on hold for a while haha.

We recorded it in Hamo’s bedroom on two technics and some borrowed Cdj’s (for the youtube rips).

We wanted to share some of the records that we listen to at home as well as some records that we have been playing out recently. Lots of new stuff from friends too.

At the minute we are working on our album, hopefully that should come out later this year. Also we are doing Boiler room at AVA Festival in Belfast in June, cant wait for that!”

FMB MIXTAPE 44 | DAVE HARVEY

Posted on April 21, 2016 by Feel My Bicep

dave harvey

Dave Harvey is a bit of a behind the scenes don.  Outside of heading up Futureboogie, he programs Love Saves The Day in Bristol, Glastonbury Wow Stage (expect an exciting announcement in the coming weeks) and having been a central part of Garden Festival in Croatia he’s now set up Love International , where lots of our favourites will be spinning this summer. We play the hand over Barbarella’s party on Wednesday 1st July tickets for that specific party here.

There are still some festival tickets available here and you can see the whole line up here.

We caught up with him to hear what he’s been up to:

“Just got back from a site visit to the Garden Tisno, the site of Love International  -working out the new Olive Grove stage set up and how we get a bigger rig into the woods for the sunrise sessions!

The mix was recorded at home, with a single skinner and some beer –  on my E&S 400 – can I still say I’ve got a rotary or is that not the done thing nowadays, I can’t keep up.

It’s a Love International inspired mix so I had lots of ideas about what to do – something clever and Balearic/Adriatic, something with all the artists playing – lots of ideas – but ended up being a load of tunes I am playing at the moment with a few oldies chucked in for good measure. It’s a bit loose at points but then I am I guess.”

Up next…

“Alongside a whole host of releases for Futureboogie, we are ramping up for all the summer madness – Love Saves The Day, The new look Wow at Glastonbury, Love International of course, and putting together a new and very  exciting event in Bristol in late summer, watch this space as that one is gonna be interesting.”
