SNS Exclusive Mix for Percussion Lab

0

Listen / download at Percussion Lab.

Saturn Never Sleeps is the fruitful collaboration between legendary producer King Britt and singer/artist Rucyl. For the past two years or so they have been holed up, perfecting their craft and dedicating themselves to continuing a mutant, forward thinking version of fellow Philadelphian Sun-Ra. With their debut album, Yesterday’s Machine, they have launched themselves into the spotlight, with a wide ranging tour and technologically informed sound. This mix sees the duo splitting selection duties into two engrossing parts, mixing new contemporaries such as Africa Hitech with classic BOC and Aphex tunes as well as their own Saturn Never Sleeps material. Check the album, out August 2nd on the prolific Alpha Pup Records.

SNS Guest Mix on EVR Worldwide Smash

If you missed our guest set on DJ Still Life’s Worldwide Smash on East Village Radio, you can listen to it anytime in the archives. We play some sneak peaks of our record (see playlist) coming out August 2nd.

Worldwide Smash: Fridays 12am – 2am
Brooklyn via California’s DJ Still Life has been addicted to the sound of a raspy snare and a hi-hat since he first encountered hip-hop and the music that makes up its building blocks. He has a monthly podcast loosely based around dirty beats at Sleeping Giant, and is a contributor to the funk and soul blog Ear Fuzz.

Children at Midnight (Saturn Never Sleeps Remix) – Shigeto

1

We recently remixed one of our favorite artists on the Ghostly International roster, Shigeto. We chose the song Children at Midnight.

For the process we used the Monome and Maschine. Running MLR 4 M4L in Ableton and then Maschine as a plug in within Ableton as well. Sync’d perfect! Rucyl, then laced, looped and sang all the vocals.  We also added my nephew, Ajani Blakey on child sounds at the end.

A fun project.  Available for Ghostly subscribers, for now.
