  • OffKey Podcast Vol 6 - Histibe

    Finally we hit you with Podacst Vol 5, brought to you by the one like Cooh.

    Histibe can be described as a cold wave of bass led minimalism, eminating from Kiev, Ukraine.

    A rare quote from Histibe describes the sound as "Minimal techno through drum n bass language"

    The Histibe mission is to make electronic music that pushes boundaries yet still keeps one eye toward the dancefloor. Already the sound has been supported by Raiden, Noisia, Black Sun Empire, Khanage, Proket and Temper D.

    Offkey Music will be working with HIstibe in the future, head honcho Raiden comments "While most producers have been focusing on harder direct tracks- Histibe is coming from another dimension, With an ice cold spectral complex sound of beautiful solitude. He has obsession for depth on a level that most drum and bass producers haven't dare gone for. His minimal influence is fresh and exactly what the scene needs right now, and totally against the grain of the harder than thou attitude that is so prevalent right now"

    In this podcast you have the perfect introduction to Histibe, it features airings of his own productions along with fresh music from artists all over the world.

    Ukrainian Producer and DJ. Born on August 10, 1988 in Kiev, Ukriane.

    Started producing own electronic music in 2005. At the moment, working on d'n'b and 4x4 techno music. As drum'n'bass producer wants to show: "minimal techno on drum'n'bass lenguge", Calls his sound "mdt drum'n'bass" (minimal/deep techno drum'n'bass), that already aroused the interest and support of such producers as Raiden, Noisia, Pyro, Black Sun Empire, Proket, Temper D. Some of this works will be released on OffKey music in 2009 on his debut EP.

  • OffKey Podcast Vol 5 - Cooh

    Finally we hit you with Podacst Vol 5, brought to you by the one like Cooh.

    The idea behind this mix was to bring the unique sound that Cooh is pushing out right now. Mixing all his favourite styles within the drum and bass genre and putting them together to create a signature sound.

    The dubstep genre has had a big influence over the sound of this podcast, which you can hear due to some of Coohs track's under his Balkansky dubstep alias being used in the mix.

    38 tunes make up this podcast, 35 of which are by Cooh and others are collabs. He was looking into putting most of his halfstep-experimental dnb tracks into one piece of music that would stand out in dnb history for some time, plus show the people what he is looking for in the future. The majority of tracks in the podcast are either released or forthcoming on labels like: Offkey, Position Chrome, Commercial Suicide, Subsistenz and more. Cooh is glad that the open minded people love to support his new sounds and that well know artists continue to play out his tracks. The mix was created in Ableton Live on air because he wanted to put some more glitch idm'ish stuff to it, so that he could play more sounds in shortened time period.

    Enjoy the latest Offkey Podcast brought to you by Cooh.

    39. OffKey Podcast Vol 4 - Proket

      To round up 2007 we bring you the 4th Offkey Podcast by our very own boy wonder: Proket.

      Proket's production style is a truly original take on drum and bass, and his status is growing steadily. The idea behind this mix was to bring together the best that 2007 had to offer in terms of the techno dnb sound while remembering some of the classic tracks that influenced today's pioneers as well as a taste of whats to come in the coming year.

      Tracks such as Offkey's first release 'Machinesoul' by Raiden and Propaganda, sit alongside the timeless classic 'Messiah' by Konflict. The work of artists such as Kemal and Rob Data and Stakka and Skynet have had such a noticeable influence on the Offkey sound that it felt right to include some of their tracks on this podcast.

      2007 has been an important year for the Offkey sound, building on the original concept of Raiden, Propaganda with new ideas from Lethal and Khanage, storming EPs that announced the true arrival of The Sect and Proket and a slightly melodic take on the sound from Temper D. 2008 is now a time to think ahead to what is planned, and this podcast gives you a sneak peak at what's to come. Very exciting ideas have been thrown around by Techno legend Dean Rodell, and The Dying Punks project with Raiden is sure to blow the mediocre into oblivion. We can look forward to Raiden's long awaited Chernobyl LP, where we will no doubt hear his true artistic vision come to the fold without the limitations of the dancefloor. The multi artist Offkey Firm LP is on its way, and although most of the tracks are being kept locked away until release, its only because we want it to be the real genre defining album it deserves to be, and judging from what has been decided on so far, this is going to be worth the wait.

      One thing is for sure, Offkey Recordings has landed, is gathering momentum, and is here to stay.
      So get ready for the Russian prodigy to represent with the fourth Offkey podcast.

      41. OffKey Podcast 003 - Temper D

        Up next on the Offkey Podcast we have our resident mixing machine Temper D.

        Currently half way through his first tours of South Africa, New Zealand and Australia, Dave is best known for his creative mixing style incorporating the whole spectrum of drum and bass. This is also backed up with a discography of releases right back to 2002 on labels such as Concord Dawn's Uprising, Gain, and Renegade Hardware, again representing the diversity of the sounds that make him tick.

        His production potential was spotted by Raiden early on in his career and has been nurtured to produce a recent string of techno influenced releases on Offkey, Offkey Limited and Subsistenz, with the more standard dancefloor material reserved for his own new label TDP.

        With many recorded live sets and studio sessions from Temper D already available on the internet, it was decided that this podcast would not be just another 3 deck drum and bass rinse-out. Digging through the crates, Dave has come with a mix covering all forms of electronic music which have influenced him over his career, progressing from minimal techno, hardcore, early Detroit classics, electro breaks, to dubstep, right through to brand new drum and bass dubplates including his debut collaboration with Raiden.

        This is a mix to listen to in the car, at home, chilling with mates or any time you need a break from the incessant sound of drum and bass. Firmly set against the narrow mindedness and one dimensional nature of too many of today's DJ's, Temper D attempts here to sum up some of the diversity that electronic music has had to offer over the years. Enjoy!!!

      43. OffKey Podcast 001 - Raiden

        Raiden's fusion of techno and drum and bass has been an inspiration to many producers for years and is one of the most exciting pioneers/representatives of the techno drum and bass movement. Raiden is now ready to unleash his long waited live set across the Globe for the first time.
        Over the last year Raiden has been pushing his 3 decks lock groove sets so to futher this idea, Raiden has developed a live set which is somewhere in between Djing and a live P.A. Songs and loops are mashed together utilising Raiden's production talents in a live environment. Expect mind bending hypnotic loops, not limited by the generic tempo of dnb, and live remixing of old and brand new material from the whole genre of electronic music in a DnB format.
