Martin Stimming joins us to talk about his latest album Elderberry, which is a Live Techno concept LP in our next episode, which he says in parts is “mildly aggressive.”
The fifth track on board, called The Seeker, is a moment where things get a little bit harder on the all hardware effort and he says it was created during lockdown at his Hamburg home.
The german music producer is well known for using hand-made sounds and field recordings in his compositions, and crafting improvised sounds during live sets, but making this record was very much a static process for the tan tracks on board.
He explained how he moulded a deeper, more techno oriented sound in parts, which he had time to systematically put together while taking care of his three sons.
Elderberry was unleashed in full playback session at Akasha Ibiza where we recorded this interview after a full analysis.
It’s out now on Carl Cox & Christopher Coe´s record label, Awesome Sound Wave, which is a 100% live artist label, focused on live electronic music artists.

Christian Löffler joins us to talk about his new album, "A Life" for our third edition of Beat Wala and explains why his latest record is a departure from his usual love of melancholic music.
Löffler delves into unexplored territory by looking into the influence of artificial intelligence in music making and reflects on his personal musical journey in this podcast recorded before his show at Akasha in Ibiza.
He says, reworking the likes of Chopin, Bach and Beethoven for Deutsche Grammaphon marked a turning point for him. After the release of Parallels: Shellac Reworks as part of the DG initiative The Shellac Project, it gave him a lift.
The German conceptual artist and composer was forced to step away from well-trodden paths to create his own interpretations of the classical greats which, as he explains, opened up a welcome dialogue between past and present and allowed him to step into a new future of the way he creates, which is demonstrated, on A Life´s first single, Roused with Malou.

Our second guest in the Beat Wala series is Tulum based artist Eduardo Castillo.
He seeks out spaces in which self-expression, rediscovery and human connection can prosper, adapting musically to each environment.
His sound encompasses the depth of his studies in the industry and influences stemming from a South American and European upbringing.
He crafted his art through music composition, orchestration and was also training to become a tenor in opera during his time in New York after leaving his Venezuelan home aged 18.
His in depth study provide him with a vast understanding of harmonies, dynamics and musical textures and last summer he brought The Overview Effect to Ibiza where Jo Youle hosted todays conversation in his private, temporary home in the island countryside.
He frequently fuses Jazz, Avant-Garde, Middle Eastern, South American, Afro-Cuban folk, Soul, Funk, and Electronic Minimalism, in his compositions, live shows, his singing, and his DJ sets, whether in their pure from or intertwined with down, mid or up-tempo electronic treatments.
Ultimately, simplicity is what Eduardo strives for. An effort is always made to have fresh, organic sound while inevitably providing touches of technological advances shaping music today.
