The Lab, NRK's mix series devoted to the world's most cutting edge
DJs and forward thinking sounds, returns this Autumn with an
instalment compiled and mixed by undoubtedly one of the scene's most
talented, charismatic and brightest stars.
Hailing from the suburbs of Detroit, Seth Troxler has made an
incredible journey over the last few years, from the local DJ spots
at DetroitÆs The Works club and behind the counter service at the
famous Melodies & Memories record store, to the most top drawer
nights and clubs across the world, such as Fabric, Panorama Bar,
DC10, The Rex et al. With a youthful enthusiasm and leftfield charm,
Seth has become a huge favourite of clubbers and party freaks, so
much so that he was voted the 3rd most popular DJ in Resident
Advisor's poll for 2010. But behind the public perception of
Troxler, he is seriously dedicated and passionate about quality
underground electronic music, taking giant leaps with his latest
Visionquest project, a collective of friends and fellow artists such
as Ryan Crosson, Shaun Reeves and Lee Curtis. His productions and
collaborations with esteemed artists like Deetron, Matthew Dear and
Tiefschwarz, and labels like Crosstown Rebels, Circus Company, Wolf
& Lamb and Wagon Repair show an artist deeply in tune with the
cutting edge electronic music that endeavours to push the envelopes
of dance music.
It may be a cliche, but Troxler's The Lab definitely has to be heard
to be believed, his talents are evident as he effortlessly blends
many different styles but always keeping a strong continuity and
sounding like no other DJ on the planet right now.
And so onto the music, and it is here that Troxler really excels on
this double mix project. Disc One is a decidedly deep affair,
opening up with the smooth and atmospheric sounds of Hatikvan and
Bearweasel, before finding a solid and luscious groove with tracks
from David Alvarado, Lindstrom, Tommy Bones and Dinky. The vibe
starts to get a little freaky with the classic DBX/Moritz Von Oswald
collaboration 'City On the Edge Of Forever' which in turn sends the
mix journey to more minimal experimentation and a tougher mood,
ushering in some great music from Daze Maxim, DJ Qu and David
Durango and closing the half with the psychedelic sounds of
Masomenos.
Disc Two picks up right where the first left off, and a little skit
featuring techno legend Kenny Larkin captured on a telephone call
introduces a mind boggling segue of tracks that effortlessly blends
ultra deep minimalism, dubby low slung vocal tracks, freeform jazz
workouts, otherworldly and psychedelic electronics and cowboys &
Indians inspired tech-house (check Und's Rodeo, truly magnificent
fun!). Amongst the forward thinking producers featured here include
Ricardo Villalobos & Martin, Deniz Kurtel, Oni Ayhun and Ryan
Crosson. Disc Two is probably where Troxler would position himself
in, say , a DC10 Ibiza set, and the music gets bigger and more
panoramic as the mix takes in some immense music from Dinky,
Lawrence, Chaim and Superpitcher. The set ends suitably with a rare
Andrew Weatherall mix of Radioactive Man, and a superb, as yet
unreleased, Visionquest new signing from Dinky.
Troxler truly adopts the brief of The Lab, and experiments with many
records, creating a thing of beauty and definitely a mix that will
stand the test of time.
