what i’ve been listening to
It’s been a while since I last wrote here and I apologize for it.
Well, here’re some mixes I’ve been really enjoying lately:
Claude Young Live @ Dommune, Tokyo – 16-05-2010: a new two and half hour mix from Claude Young, recorded live at Dommune in Tokyo last week. That’s what DJing is all about, nuff said.
Takasi Nakajima, 2010.415: another nice one from the Cynet-Media camp – an hour of deep techno from Takasi Nakajima. For fans of Orlando Voorn’s NightVision imprint, don’t forget to check out his latest mix that features material from NightVision.
Quince Live @ Awakenings 04-04-2010: Bram Sluiter really nails it with this shit. Quality.
LWE Podcast 50: Mike Huckaby: a killer mix from Detroit’s own Mike Huckaby.
Last but not least: The Black Dog Drifting and Sometimes: two beautiful ambient DJ mixes from tBd who just released a brilliant ambient album on Soma Records.

aux 88 interview
Aux 88 are set to release a new EP entitled "Black Tokyo" in February.
Aux 88 have always remained true to their roots of the music, having forged a particularly distinctive and original musical style, thus managing to avoid being identified with any particular scene. Deeply rooted yet always futuristic, their sound is as relevant today as it has ever been — it displays a confidence and maturity few contemporary techno producers can match — there is no doubt that Aux 88 have defined themselves as two of the key players in the development of electronic music as we know it today.
Electronic Directory caught up with Keith Tucker and Tommy Hamilton to find out about the project, the plans for Puzzlebox Records.

DJ 3000 – Galactic Caravan The Remixes [Motech]
![[ UGCD-MT005 ]](http://www.electronicdir.jp/wp-content/uploads/imgs/jkt_ugcd-mt-005.jpeg)
DJ 3000 gets the remix treatment from his friends and Motech players on this double disc set. The first package is an exploration of modern electronic grooves, which will reward home and club listeners–standouts include the moody Mr De remix of Seven Tribes Of Hoti, Esteban Adame’s graceful revision of Her Smile and a more subtle version of Shawn Rudiman’s Her Smile. The second package wins with stellar displays from Alexander Robotnick, Mark Flash and DJ Bone. Robotnick makes it big with his synth driven electroid sound, Flash goes a mammoth synth led workout and Bone does his epic ABM thang to Meloudic Landscapes.
