Dekmantel Podcast 465 - Cashu

Author: dekmantel May 6, 2024 Duration: 1:09:37
Without people like Cashu (@carol-schutzer), São Paulo’s queer community wouldn't be thriving in the way that it is. The Mamba Negra label collective, party and label co-founder has been working tirelessly to provide safe spaces, creative outlets and raise funds for the LGBTQIA+ community for many years. She closely intertwines politics and dancing at events that reclaim urban spaces and now enjoys an international DJ diary that sees her mixing up breaks, techno, dancehall and electro across Amsterdam, Berlin, and places like our own Dekmantel Selectors. She takes us on a similarly whirlwind tour with this week's mix, including some unreleased gems. It's a full-throttle party selection that fires through several house, club and techno rhythms - some bounce on big bass, some are twisted with raw percussion and some get stripped back to loopy drums and trippy sound designs. These global beats from the likes of DJ Wawa, Nick León, and Lewis Lowe add up to a colourful carnival atmosphere that sounds even better when the sun is shining.

For years, the Dekmantel Mix Series Archive 1-500 has served as a deep, curated well of sonic exploration, directly from the heart of the renowned Dutch festival and label. This isn't just a collection of DJ sets; it's a living archive of electronic music's evolving narrative, capturing moments from both legendary figures and vital new voices. Each episode functions as a standalone journey, where genres like techno, house, electro, and ambient blur and converse. You'll hear meticulously crafted mixes that range from hypnotic and atmospheric to rhythmically driving, all united by a distinct sense of curation and mood. Tuning into this podcast is like having access to a privileged vault of musical continuity, released regularly for dedicated listeners. The archive format means there's always a previous chapter to discover, a hidden gem from a past installment that feels newly relevant. It's a long-form dedication to the art of the mix, offering a consistent and rich source of inspiration whether you're at home or on the move. The bi-weekly schedule ensures a steady flow of these immersive sessions, making this series a foundational listen for anyone invested in the deeper currents of electronic music culture.
