Live DJ Set @ DCRaves Radio House Party 5/9/2009

ryptide — Wed, 13 May 2009 03:36:42 +0000

I played the second DC Raves Radio House Party on Saturday Night and recorded my set.

A lot of the same tracks I played in Seattle, but some other stuff too. All psytrance with some breaks thrown in for good measure.

At least my laptop didn’t crash halfway through this time, which is good.

Tracklisting:

Ananda Shake – America’s Dream
Indra – Killing The Music
Braniac – Hyperphysics
Dapanji – Attention Please
Dapanji – LSD 25
CPU – Expander
Adam Freeland – We Want Your Soul (Club Mix)
Dylan Rhymes feat. Pablo Decoder – Ctrl Z Remix
CPU – Music
CPU – Morning Drop

Live DJ Set @ Gelman Iscariot (Seattle, WA)

My good friend Andrew (Kid Amiga) invited me out to play his latest party in Seattle this past weekend. I’d never been to Seattle. It is a neat city from what I saw, and the party people out there are good folks. I don’t get many opportunities to play psytrance here in DC, so I figured I’d drop some on the west coast. People dug it.

Anyway, I recorded my set. 54:08 of full-on psytrance. I’m mostly happy with it save a couple transitions and the fact that I didn’t pay any attention to harmonic mixing, but considering I bought most of the tracks on Thursday night, and got 2 hours of sleep between then and my set, it came out okay.

Here’s the tracklisting:

Dapanji – Attention Please
Michele Adamson & Dino Psaras – Firewall (GMS Remix)
Ananda Shake – America’s Dream
Indra – Killing The Music
Brainiac – Hyperphysics
Dapanji – LSD 25
Dark Psy – Nord Is Back
Dark Nebula – Orbital Elevator
RypTide – Untitled Weirdness Outro

Here’s a recording of my latest set, played at a friend’s birthday party in August. I haven’t listened through it so I make no guarantees as to its quality. Unfortunately the recording I normally do internally with Ableton Live did not work so I’m relying on the external recording that was done.

Tracklisting (I think):

Tripswitch – Shamanic Tea (Manasseh Remix)
Illy Noiz – Don’t Break My Heart (Backbone Remix)
Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince – Summertime (Hybrid Remix)
Matthew Adams – No More, Anymore! (Elusive Remix)

Funk The War

ryptide — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 07:52:26 +0000

A friend of mine asked me to record a 90-minute mix for Funk The War, which is planned for March 19, 2008 to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the US invasion of Iraq. This mix will be the part of the soundtrack for bunches of students dancing in the streets of Washington, DC in a peaceful (at least I hope it stays peaceful) protest of the Iraq War.

Most of the tracks are edited in some way by me, on the fly by extending, adding breakdowns, glitches, sampling some of my own original loops, etc. Fun stuff.

Enjoy!

01. Freestylers – Feel The Panic (Banned Mix)
02. Edwin Starr – War (King Britt Remix)
03. Cevin Fisher – Music Saved My Life (Pete Heller Remix)

Quickie Halloween Mix

ryptide — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 16:05:40 +0000

Threw this together late last night. All tracks I hadn’t warped yet so the warping might be a little off in places, and I know the phrasing is off in two of the transitions due to one of my favorite things about psytrance — the tricky little beat-skip. Here it is anyway.

Tracks:
Derango – All Channels Open
Dark Nebula – Mystic Portal
Twisted System – Razor
Ohm Gnome – Step Away From The Dwarf
The Nommos – Iboga
Baphomet Engine – Templar Warriors
Baphomet Engine – Dancing On The Barrows
Para Halu – Popeyote

Gear/Software Used:
Ableton Live 6
M-Audio Firewire 1814 (audio interface)
Evolution UC-33 (mixer/effects)
M-Audio Axiom 25 (random synth/pad work)

New Download: Live DJ Set from Beyond 10/03/2007

ryptide — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 11:54:52 +0000

Hello again, folks!

I’ve rendered to audio my set at Beyond on 10/03/2007 and made it available for download here. Ableton Live is really handy that way. Instead of hauling around some sort of recording device, or having the laptop have to actually record audio as I’m playing, I can have it record my key presses, knob twists and fader movements and render the whole set out as audio. Makes it easy to tear down when you need to clear a small DJ booth, and makes your laptop less likely to crash and burn while recording your audio as wav directly onto the disc.

Anyway, this is a decent mix, I think. A little off in parts due to some shoddy warping in Ableton on my part and some weird levels. Also a couple misplaced effects that take away a little bit but not too much.

The mix is all pretty chill, starting with some psychedelic dub at around 75 BPM and finishing up with some deep house at around 120 or so. Pretty drastic tempo change over an hour and a half but it was a fun mix and the folks who heard it live seemed to enjoy it. I hope you do too. Leave me some feedback in the comments!

If you’d like a tracklisting, leave me a comment, or shoot me an email at ryptide [at] ryptidemusic [dot] com.

In other news, Ableton Live 7 was announced! Who needs sleep, anyway?

Progressive Psytrance Mix – Metanoia

ryptide — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 03:39:01 +0000

Ok, so the mix isn’t new but the website is, so I’m calling the mix new to make things simple. This is my first full-length published mix made with Ableton Live. This is definitely more on the progressive end than the psytrance end of things, but there are psytrance elements and most of the artists are psytrance artists. It starts off very mellow and ramps up to some more full-on stuff at the end. Some highlights for me are the first two Vibrasphere tracks, and then the X-Noise, Digitalis and Shuma tracks towards the end.

I hope you enjoy it, and if you’ve already enjoyed it I hope you enjoy it again!

Tracklisting:
Vibrasphere – Seven Days to Daylight [Unai Remix]
Vibrasphere – Floating Free [Sync24 vs. IMLGND Remix]
Antix – Le Lascard [Ohrsten Nors Remix]
Emok + Ndsa – Harbour Candy
Antix – Little Honey [Sun Controlled Species vs. Osiris Indriya Remix]
Sonic Cube – Amnesia
Lish – Outsiders
Liquid Soul – I Get A Rush
Tomic – Emotion
X-Noize – Let Yourself Go
Digitalis – The Ride [Kid Blue Remix]
Shuma – Bodyrock [Human Traffic Remix]
Kiwa – Access
GMS – Good Brick
Yahel – Coma
