Vinylminds

Today’s episode finds MK2 scattered between Chicago, DC, and SF, a perfect time to reach to more distant shores for a guest selector.

For episode 35, we’re pleased to present Melbourne’s vinylminds (AKA Superpolitik), a dj/producer and co-owner of breaks/down-tempo label Trickery Collective. Classically trained, he also studied jazz and improvisational guitar & piano, and spent much of the 90’s playing in funk & rock bands. But as the millennium turned over, he put his guitar on the shelf and reached instead for a sequencer.

In 2006 he joined with Foreign System to form the Trickery Collective label. 2007 saw the release of the the Silence Makes No Sense EP, which along with singles Vinylminds and Jasmine introduced his style as a soulful, composition-centric blend of downtempo beats, intricate jazz and orchestral arrangements, and moody atmospherics.

Look for more releases this year on Trickery Collective and Fresh Produce Records.

Piotron

As we resume somewhat regular updates, we bring you a set from Piotron, representing San Francisco’s infamous DownLow crew. Purveyors of fine underground and renegade events since 2005, DownLow has quickly established a reputation for excellence among connoisseurs of toxic beaches, veggie-fueled party buses, and other unorthodox venues.

For episode 34, Piotron lays down a characteristic blend of techy, glitchy midtempo electrofunk, with a sleek, mechanical sheen that perhaps owes as much to Manchester as it does to its more obvious Detroit and Berlin components. This man/machine has been making a significant contribution to the Bay Area underground for a few years now, and we’re proud to present this offering to the internets!
