OCTOBER MIX // KOLYA
OCTOBER MIX // KOLYA
To celebrate the shift in covid alert levels and the return to the dance floor we have an uplifting mix courtesy of Ōtepoti-based producer Kolya (Nikolai Sim).
We are long time fans of Kolya and his rare live techno sets are some of the best around! So much so that we had planned to bring Nikolai up for our last event in September back when it was intended to be a rave and we could sweat safely in large numbers. We definitely plan on rescheduling and can’t wait to see him in action again sometime soon!
Nikolai is also a member of synth-pop coldwave trio Élan Vital, providing distorted disco basslines alongside the psychedelic garage keys of Renee Barrance (Ov Pain) and the analogue techno beats of Danny Brady (Death & The Maiden). He has also performed in folk duo Terrified and chaotic psych band Scattered brains of the lovely union.
This edition goes straight for my heart with a mix of trance, a few breaks and some acid techno thrown in for good measure. It even features an unreleased remix Nikolai did of a track from our very first guest on the monthly mix series, Stef Animal.
Try to resist smiling :))
Tracklist:
Spoken Worm - Sugar
Sour - Mr. Free
Serbian Mythology - Blame the Mono
Heartbeat - BXTR
Maneater - Mayeul
Boomerang Nebula - Lund&Ronde
Pray for the Apes - DJ Reiz
Diamonds (Kolya Runaway Trance Mix) - Stef Animal
Forcefield Shifta - New Members
