I’ve always been a fan of Electronic Air over its 21 year history, and I was invited in late 2016 to become part of the crew. I will be a substitute DJ and fill in for the regulars when they need a break from the action.
I have been away from radio DJing for over 20 years and am really excited to be part of this amazing crew, and to DJ again. Tune in, it will be great!
Here is the teaser I pushed out with one day to go…
My band project Freqmodif with Nathan Jantz are honored to have a track being released on the upcoming House of Mutes Vol.1 compilation on Obsolete Future Recordings! Here is the press release! Check it out, and don’t be slow or you’ll miss the limited cassette release; and buy the digital content for cheap at bandcamp!
House of Mutes Vol.1 Compilation – We’re the opening track!
We’re back after a short stretch of seasonal inertia with our first cassette compilation: House of Mutes Vol. 1 collects new material from Obsolete Future doyens WWC, Paradise, Dyad & Formant, in addition to a plethora of unearthed tracks from the likes of Denver’s Thug Entrancer, Rocky Mountain dub traffickers Freqmodif, Austin frequency-hackers Bodytronix, the Dallas/Ft. Worth electro crew of MKG Systems, Cygnus & Mannequinz, analog-acid from the Bay Area’s Headgear and a Dutch ambient oddity from BuzzzuwfarfewwW.
The tape is packaged in a putridly gorgeous neon-yellow case & specially designed by Kristen Koenig of Pull Trigger. The 15-track collection was compiled in Austin, TX by Conor Walker and mastered as a C44.5 by Jeremy Averitt in Denver, CO.
The cassette is limited to 150 // Preorder ships Friday June 20th

Did a mixtape tonight, some of my favorite acid vinyls from 2013; and a couple of older records thrown in for balance. Wishing Jefferson quickness!

Going through some older cassettes from the Radio Station days (KUCB, Boulder) and digitizing some mixes I did on my shows. Love listening to these old shows as this is when Electronic / Techno Music was blossoming and a ton of good tracks are included in these mixes!
Enjoy!

Been a while since my project Freq Modif has been active; but that sleeping beast awakes. Right now there is a Facebook page and a Soundcloud page. I have 25+ tracks ready to go online; I’m going to add them a few at a time–much like a glacier melts–so does the Freq Modif archive to create a constant stream…

And the patch above was my dad’s; he was a Radarman in the Navy. I love the patch and it hangs in the studio with all the electronics equipment!
Had a great little new year session where I pulled out some old records and had some fun. Comes in the standard 30m deployment in two parts. First part is more of a body mix; second part is for your mind…

I was able to go through all my old mixtapes and I removed and trashed all the outer plastic cases; now I have three shoeboxes full of tapes to someday go digital with…picked one out at random and here it is. No markings other than March 13, 1994. I’ll work on a set list but there are several I’m not likely going to remember…perhaps you can help?
The first several sets were chill/ambient and then led into more techno/dance stuff later on in the show.
Enjoy!
