Immersion, Remembering José Padilla

The DJ's Daughter

10/24/20 • -1 min

José Padilla has been a constant inspiration for all of us here at DJSD. His ability to use a wide range of styles of music to tell a sonic story that expands hours at a time was a pure gift. The key architect of "Balearic beat", Padilla popularized the upbeat form of electronic dance music through his live DJ sets and the releases of the infamous Café del Mar compilation series. This chill, soulful, yet groovy, and optimistic vibe feels like a breath of fresh air in 2020 when many have a weight of a thousand tons on the shoulders.Unfortunately, on October 18th, it came the sudden news that José Padilla had passed away at the age of 64 in Ibiza. This saddens us all. It is only days after the arrival of the news, we start to think about how we can pay tribute to Padilla.Back in 2003, Velizar in the mix was the resident DJ at Midway, New York. The spirit at the time called for freestyle expressions, which reflected itself in New York's club culture. After a long night of techno and house, Velizar would often entertain the inner cycle with an early morning sunrise set. It was an intimate, personal, and meandering after party, and very much in the spirit of the Balearic Beat. As put by Mixmag in July 1990, "What the 'Balearic concept' has taught us is that it doesn't matter what genre the track falls into, as long as the beat 'n' groove move the feet and what's on top of 'em is pleasing to the ear." It was a pure expression.We dug into our archives and found one recording from those early morning sessions, titled Immersion. It feels appropriate to re-introduce it as our way to pay respect to José Padilla, the Godfather of Chillout. His style of music has made the idea of sunset and sunrise such beautiful memories for people. We hope that Immersion will remind all of us of his legacy and what beautifully crafted music story can bring to us.R.I.P. José Padilla.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE |

DJSD (the DJ’s Daughter) is welcoming Passwardy back to the Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show to continue on his sonic adventure from the previous episode. Shortly after recording his live set here at the radio show, Passwardy traveled to Shanghai for some gigs, unknowingly walking right into the world’s first Covid-19 epicenter. Unable to get back to the US as planned, Passwardy utilized this quarantine time to conjure up his very first Album “Personal Cosmology” (coming soon) and some awesome mixes.Strangely for Passwardy, being alone in an unknown city for a prolonged period without the option of getting out proved to be an enlightening experience, to the say the least. "Trapped without feeling trapped was an interesting sensation", said Passwardy. "There was so much chaos, frustration, confusions, sadness, contradictions... Yet, I had all those creative urges. Putting all of those emotions, observations, and energies into music-making, whether my own productions or the mixes I was making, somehow just made all sense".
When we asked him what were his thoughts (if any) behind this mix, Passwardy said "it was to reflect the current mood in which myself along with many others found ourselves in. It was to embrace the loneliness, the ugliness, the heartbrokenness ... all those depressing, end-of-world emotions we are facing nowadays. Yet somehow had this faith that we would all come out of it with a stronger determination than ever. Perhaps it was a utopian idea. But it was really how I was feeling and continue to feel so."

Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show EPS. arc1 With Passwar D

The DJ's Daughter

02/08/21 • -1 min

Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show 2021 Episode arc1 is a 44-minute, 10-track sonic voyage, curated and live mixed by Passwar D. The journey starts with a state of dreamy sounding deep space and slowly picks up the groovy breakbeats, suspending percussions, and flowy synths. The extended transition into the 3rd track is expansively immersive. Lingering synths give away so elegantly to the spacy melody while the percussion and deep sub-bass drive the progression forward with plenty of nuanced details.
The mix continues to evolve with East LA Tek drops tough beats and rugged bassline, anz offers up a minimal beat track with sharp vocal cuts, and Joannes provides a temporary return to the hypnotic tripyness with its quirky grooviness that is both otherworldly and deep.
Echoing Passwar D's own fascination around the human and the machines, Syrte's "Obedience Paradox" is part of five electro tracks that, according to Science Cult, explore the "delicate nature and moral implications regarding humanity's evolving relations with machines'. This dark and mechanically sounding repetition is further heightened with the rhythmic built-up from track 8, pushing the mix to reach its true climax around the 30min mark.
Further development is nonlinear. The last 3 tracks are interwoven together to cool down from the pinnacle, moving the hyperchaotic instability into a jungle tribal banger that abruptly gives away to a final ending that is nothing short of a party house anthem filled with Latin-inspired vocal lines and surging tech house grooves. Surprise? Yes. Satisfied? Totally.
AVE EPS. arc1 is a dramatic mix that manages to pack a multi-dimensional state of emotions in less than 45 minutes. It is filled with masterfully crafted transitions that blend the mix into one engaging story. Listening to it in one take if you can. Savoring all the aural subtleties, slowly, and mindfully.

Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show EPS. Fjords With Passwar D

The DJ's Daughter

05/05/21 • -1 min

The title of the episode gives away the idea behind: an epic spring road trip along the most dramatic coastline in Scandinavia. There is nothing more transcending than listening to the music that transports you to a different place. The collective experiences of confinement in the past year have made many of us daydream about the exotic places we wish to visit. It is one of such moments that prompted Passwar D to create the mix for Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show May Episode.

Have you been to Fjords during May when wildflowers start to bloom and sunshine is plenty? Imagining that you are driving on the narrow, man-made rock trail without sight of other tourists while breathing the icy yet salty air and blasting tracks from Mr.diamond, Gaetano Parisio, Dubspeeka. Or, perhaps, we are zigzagging the serpentine-like Trollstigen pass, admiring the mighty mountains and landscapes of early summer while feeling the beats pumping.

Episode FJORDS is a rich and textured mix with a clear intent. It is designed to take you to different places from the comfort of your own home. It is about escaping reality, finding peace within oneself. Each track was selected for its unique auditory quality. The experience varies depending on how you listen to it. Try to listen to it quietly in the background first. Then, listen to it again with the volume turned up. Two very different experiences will occur!

SECRETIVITÈ, Live DJ Set by Passwar D, Palm Beach, Foinikas, Crete, September 22, 2014

In this episode of Alien Vibe From the Earth Radio Show, we traveled back to 2014 to share with you the first of the 3-part recording of the live set with Passwar D on Crete island.

As mentioned in this past New Year EPS. 1af1 "Unforgettable", good music stands the test of time. In the electronic music sphere, it is often encouraged to promote the latest, the newest, and the hottest of the moment. Many producers created wonderful music that never got to be played enough in public. With the listeners relying more and more on algorithm-driven playlists provided by a platform like Spotify, it becomes even harder to discover music that is on the "non-conforming" side. Hence, at DJSD, we made a point to bring back DJ sets we love from the past by Passwar D so we can help to resurface some of those marvelous tracks.

We love music that is filled with complicated textures, nuanced intricacies, and emotional soundscapes that transcend us to a different place and time. Many of Passwar D's live sets reflect his experiences at a given time. Each track for the set was selected to convey the feeling evoked by such experiences. The progression of the set is the direct reaction to the visceral stimulus. They are always an emotional undertaking. The tracks in those live sets acted like paragraphs in a book. They help to shape the narratives that form emotional storytelling.

We sincerely hope that you enjoy the episode. Don't forget to bring it with you for your summer traveling. If you like this episode, stay tuned for the subsequent 2 parts as each one evolved from the previous one. Together, they bring the listeners back to the evenings in the early fall on Crete island where local people gathered together to marvel at the glorious sunset while dancing away into the darkness.

Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show EPS. Dama With Passwar D

The DJ's Daughter

04/01/21 • -1 min

Cinematic and hypnotic, Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show 2021 Episode Dama opens with Alexskyspirit’s TXL2ATH Original Mix from his Quartz Rec. debut album, District X17. As a state of mind filled with mystic suspense, TXL2ATH is a texturally minimalistic track that is spacey and atmospheric. This vast-in-space ambiance quickly morphs into a darker, more agitated, and very eerily cosmic openness supplied by Talismann's tune, Desert Rose (Original Mix). Those "supernatural frequencies" form a massive soundscape with an orchestrated ambition, pushing forward by continuous drum beats and creating the kind of anxiety that only occurs when facing the unknown. Then, here comes the relief: the playful, optimistic, and cheerful track of Sebastian Mullaert Kikaqu (Original Mix) that leads us straight into the belly of a happy dance tune, Radio Waves (After Dark) by Spencer Parker, a London-born, Berlin-based artist.

Judging from the first part of Episode Dama, it is apparent that Passwar D used every single track to craft a twist and turn that mimics human emotion.

"There is so much unpredictability in our environment. One can feel happy, sad, desperate, and back to hopefully within one single day. I want the mix to be the mirror of this ever-shifting emotion."

Passwar D, March 2021

As for the selection of tracks, Passwar D opted in for a non-purist approach, masterfully combining multiple forms of electronic music, from the ambiance, electronica, dance, house, techno, and indie, into one single mix. The reason behind the choices is partly due to his current inclination towards multi-genres storytelling, and mostly as a nod to the articulation of human emotion complexity.

Now, if you are wondering where Passwar D decided to take us on this sonic voyage? Please stay on and listen to the entire episode.

This Alien Vibes From the Earth Radio Show is packed with fast tempo tracks that bring back the 90’s peak time rave feelings.

Passwar D kicked off the mix with a 137bpm Let Them Bleed from the remastered album, Againstnature, originally released in the year 2000. The album represents a pivotal moment in the emergence of the “Birmingham Sound”; a stripped-back sub-genre of Techno, pioneered around this time in the English hub by artists such as Regis, Female, and Surgeon,” according to Tresor Records.

To create dynamic Passwar D played with the energy levels, and immediately dropped down the tempo with Danny Daze’s 2021 release Moscow before picking up the speed again with Dax J’s Universal Future Sound from the artist’s 3rd studio album, Utopian Surrealism, written during the lockdown and inspired by Sapiens, best selling book by Yuval Hoah Harari.

Other highlights include track 11. Slam & 999999999 Conveyor, Passwar D climaxed with this epic journey. Thereafter he created a massive cadence to close the show with a peak time remix of the classic Eurodance anthem from the ’90s, Jam & Spoon with Plavka Right in the Night. Full track list below.

We hope that this episode will unleash your inner dancing star.
