DJ Mix – Friday Throwdown – Benny Blanco® – EBMACIDINDUSTROWEATHER – September 29th, 2023

EBMACIDINDUSTROWEATHER
3 hrs 12 min

New York / Sri State area was blasted with torrential rains causing a late start to my typical friday throwdown set time window. I started a wee bit later just past 9 out to midnight in the BASSMint. I embarked on a Dark EBM Electro Acid Industrial Fueled mix with a light hint of alt-pop.

Playing this set was super fun as all these tracks were NEW to my collection over the past few days, weeks or months that I’ve been wanting to explore some of the newer edgier EBM sounds from the past 10 years or so. The sound is certainly more modern compared to the 80’s/Early 90’s Industrial sound and I think my only gripe from this current slate is there are not enough obscure film sample references. I really like having those in tracks. The tracks that featured some vocals are decent. Anyway, give this set a listen and I’m willing to bet you come away liking a few of these Tracks!

DJ Mix – Friday Throwdown – Benny Blanco® – Melancholy Meltdown 112 BPM – July 28th, 2023

Melancholy Meltdown 112 BPM
3 hrs

Return to form here in the BASSment after a good 2 months or so from being away. Luckily, my skills were not TOO rusty and it felt good playing some music again. Small live crowd during this Friday Throwdown, but those that had attended, stuck around for the duration of the entire show once they realized the show has returned! There’s a mix of a few new things I’ve picked up and of course a majority of Tracks I’ve played plenty of times before, these just felt right to play at the time as pretty early on, I decided to kinda of keep the Tempo peaked not much higher than 115 BPMs….

It’s all worth noting that in the past few weeks, the world lost a few great Artists/Performers, Sinead O’Connor and Tony Bennett. Small tribute of tracks sprinkled in as these people were certainly in the back of my mind before turning on the live stream. There is always a touch of mental preparation of what should I play this week. Sets are never planned out by any means.. but I may go in with.. I’d like to play a few of these songs at some point and wing it on how I may get there.

Per usual, we have the video & audio files to view/download and a Tracklist for the curious… enjoy.

DJ Mix – Friday Throwdown – Benny Blanco® – Dark Times, Glimmering Hope – June 2nd, 2023

Dark Times, Glimmering Hope
3 hrs and 32 minutes!

Marathon set back here in the BASSment for another Friday Throwdown. Had a rough few weeks here as my day job was enduring impending layoffs. Fortunate for myself, I was spared, but many near me on my team and folks I worked with were affected. It was not great. It did not feel celebratory to play music the past few weeks. But.. need to get back up to sharing music with folks and had some decent mini conversations with friends during the set.

This set hit similar territory… early 90s and 80s biz… but for the last hour or so…. I broke into a full Detriti Records label showcase (2 hrs 25 min mark). I had just ordered the entire vinyl catalog that was available as I’m a cheapskate when it comes to buying records. I need the best deal. Buying them all.. records were like $10 a piece. Looking at prices on Discogs they are almost all going for more than $20 a pop. The most satisfying part of this as the folks that were still hanging on listening at this point didn’t drop out cause the music was unfamiliar. I consider that a win. But the reason why I’m enjoying this label so much is for several points

  • Label Art is punk rock, duo tone, low tech, grunge for the most part. It’s a specific visual aesthetic, Davide Lace, the label boss is going for.
  • Low-fi retro mastering. Releases initially started out as cassette tape runs (guts!)
  • Manage to scour the globe for numerous NEW ACTS embodying 80s New Wave, Goth, Synthwave, Coldwave, Indie, EBM & Industrial vibes. Acts signed are from Eastern Europe, Belarus, Germany, France, Belgium, Montreal, Columbia, LA & NYC to name a few locations
  • Lyrics in multitude of languages I do not understand, but the grit and melodies are there. Sometimes a bit pretentious, but hoping it is largely tongue in cheek.
  • Simple Basic Music. Raw As F*ck!

As always, I try to provide the video and audio recording of the show along with the Tracklist… enjoy.
