We explore the thoughts of artists and music sharing. In today's digital age, discovering new music has become more accessible than ever due to online platforms like Spotify, SoundCloud, and download services such as Beatport. While traditional methods of exploring music, such as visiting record shops, have diminished in popularity, the process of musical exploration remains significant and enriching, especially when one encounters a standout track. For performing artists, the quest for fresh music is a continuous endeavor, often regarded as equally important as the performance itself. This raises an interesting question: is it appropriate for artists to keep the details of their music sources confidential? This topic invites further discussion from some of the South West DJs and producers on the nature of music discovery in the modern landscape.

Artist Interview

"I’ve brought a lot of new music lately so there’s quite a lot of brand new material in this mix as well as some dubs I’ve been sent from local producers in the Southwest."

Hi Trix, We are thrilled to feature you again. What have you been up to since the last time we caught up?

Thank you for having me again. I’ve been busy making some of my own productions which I’m going to start testing in my sets within the next couple of months. So I’m quite excited about that. I’ve been buying various bits of Hardware, including a Korg Minilogue which is my first Hardware Synthesizer. I’ve been having lots of fun making some sound design with that. It’s definitely making me feel more creative!

I’ve also been dabbling in mixing and producing Deep House lately, So maybe I could record a Deep House mix for you guys at some point! I’m into most genres of music and have been really feeling those Deep House vibes lately. It must be all this sun we’ve been having... Just typical as we’re on Lockdown!

Strange times we are living through at the moment, has this affected your DJ Plans?

Yes it really has unfortunately. I was due to play my first DJ sets aboard this year. In Berlin at Superbooth and in Corfu at Escape2Festival. Although Corfu hasn’t actually been cancelled yet, It’s the first week of July so it’s not looking likely at the moment.

I have however, been keeping myself busy music wise during lockdown, playing 3 shows a week from my home studio. I’m live on:

Yeah,You? - Monday’s 8pm to 9pm Bloc2Bloc Radio - Friday’s 6pm to 7pm Rough Tempo - Saturdays 7pm to 8pm

Also, Cornwall DJ’s have been uniting to raise money for the NHS. I had a little chat with BBC Cornwall live on air a few days ago to speak about it. I will drop the link in if anyone would like to donate! DJ Proof set it up and promoted it on the Facebook ‘Newquay Clubbing’ page and we have already smashed the £500 target which is amazing. Us at Yeah,You? Have all been promoting the fundraiser each time we go live.

Talk us through your podcast mix

As usual, expect those dark, deep and heavy vibes from me with a touch of dark techy drum and bass! I always like to play some old classics in my sets, so listen out for them. I’ve brought a lot of new music lately so there’s quite a lot of brand new material in this mix as well as some dubs I’ve been sent from local producers in the Southwest. I hope you enjoy listening, and thanks again for having me.

What’s going to be the first tune you play after lockdown is lifted?

Oh that is a tough one! Probably Bob Marley - Don’t worry about a thing. It’s nice and chilled and it’s exactly what we all need after all this chaos.
