Mars89 (Bokeh Versions/Noods Radio, Tokyo)

Mars89은 초현실주의와 사이언스 픽션의 영향을 받은 DJ이자 작곡가이다. 2016년 여름에 카세트테이프와 진의 세트로 "East End Chaos"를 릴리스하였으며. 이 작품을 발판으로 2017년 초여름에는 오컬티즘으로부터 영감을 얻은 작품 "Lucid Dream"을 브리스톨을 거점으로 하는 실험적 덥 레이블 Bokeh Versions에서 덥플레이트와 카세트테이프의 포맷으로 릴리스하였다. 앨범은 발매 후 즉시 매진을 기록했으며, 다수의 미디어는 'Dark Side of Dub, Dancehall, Gqom, Grime, Drill, Ambient, Ballroom, Jersey club, Sci-fi Soundtrack' 등의 키워드와 함께 마지막은 'Not Sure What To Call It Hybrids'로 마무리하며 그의 앨범을 리뷰했다. Amazon Tokyo Fashion Week 2017A/W에서는 키비주얼을 위한 음악을, Amazon Tokyo Fashion Week 2018S/S에서는 Growing Pains의 런웨이를 위한 시네마틱 사운드트랙을 프로듀스하였다. Radar Radio에서 정기 프로그램을 진행하였으며 현재 브리스틀의 Noods Radio에서 레지던트 DJ를 맡고 있다.

Mars89 is a DJ/Composer inspired by surrealism and science fiction. In summer 2016, he released the cassette tape & zine bundle pack titled 'East End Chaos'. One year after, Bristol-based experimental dub label Bokeh Versions released his 'Lucid Dream', an 8-track EP with massive layers of undercurrents from occultism. This EP has been described with chaotic keywords such as 'Dark Side of Dub, Dancehall, Gqom, Grime, Drill, Ambient, Ballroom, Jersey club, Sci-fi Soundtrack' by media and has received good reputations. Mars89 has produced music for the key visual of Amazon Fashion Week Tokyo 2017A/W and exclusively created cinematic soundtrack for the Ready-To-Wear brand Growing Pains's runway at Amazon Fashion Week Tokyo 2018S/S. He has been hosting the monthly program for Bristol's Noods Radio as the resident DJ.

Phantoms Of Riddim은 첨단의 댄스뮤직으로부터 우리가 놓치고 있었던 미싱링크를 루츠를 거슬러 올라가 만나는 일에 큰 관심이 있습니다. 자메이카에서 탄생되고 영국을 통해 세계로 확산되었던, 그러나 여전히 한국에서는 미지의 영역으로 남아있는 사운드시스템 & 베이스 컬쳐에 기반한 모던 댄스뮤직을 리딤(Riddim)의 관점에서 다룹니다.

After dalliances with junglist culture in 2016’s RaggaPreservationSociety EP, SeekersInternational’s latest 12” charts the Canadian sampling collective’s excursions through dubbier waters.

Seekers trademarks all come present and correct, but this set feels less cluttered: opener RunComeTest simmers languidly, the vocal cuttings float, tracing elliptical rings around a beat that never was, while echo and tripped out distortion draw the pads in and out of focus. Spatial awareness is developed masterfully throughout the EP – the tracks swell and pan to fill caverns of their own reverb, in which samples are scattered like clues to past inhabitants, and SKRS give us ample time to poke around and examine the oddities’ every side. FurdaMurda seems to tiptoe right up to the lo-fi textures of hometurf house labels Mood Hut and 1080p, until a piercing crack begins to whip the track into its jaunty grind – it’s the most beat-driven piece in evidence here, but even then the looping cascades won’t be taking us anywhere fast. TrialByFire follows with flanged white noise in the back of the scene – you can almost hear SKRS at work, hoovering the dust off the artefacts. From here on the mood takes a turn for the uneasy, with vocals soft but no more comforting than a burglar’s attempts to rock a baby back to sleep; in TroubleRoundDiCorner samples almost entirely take leave, but the paranoia lingers – pads blotting the canvas with murky colours that bleed into one another, seeing the EP out in rich ambiguity. RunComeTest continues on its way between pop, sample contortionism and sound bwoy psychedelia – into scuffles with nostalgia and out the other side to a hopeful retro-future that only Seekersinternational call home.
