GROOVE Podcast 434 – Atrice

Atrice is one of these rare acts that merge sound design and club music into a tactile sounding, but nonetheless bass heavy listening experience that works on dance floors and headphones alike. Having released EPs on Munich techno institution Ilian Tape, Manuel Fischer’s Ozelot, and Colombian tastemaker imprint TraTraTrax, the duo’s rather small but meticulously crafted output speaks for itself. Plus, aspiring artist Richard D. James played out their track „Gr. Impact” during one of his sets, giving credit where credit’s due.

When Atrice are not producing, they play DJ sets that infuse techno with bass music’s tribalistic qualities and dub’s indefinite spaciousness, like they recently did at Zurich DIY venue D.A.S. How that sounds? Check out the 112 minute long recording to get an idea.

What did you have in mind when recording this mix?

How to create a transition between peak time and morning hours at D.A.S.–our favourite venue in Zurich. We played from 5 until 7 AM after Stenny and before Agonis.

Where did you record it and which setup did you use?

Beginning of September at DIY Club D.A.S. in Zurich — 3 CDJs and XONE96

What’s the most memorable gig you played so far?

Live at Positive Education Festival 2022. 1:30 until 02:30 AM, after Slikback and before re:ni b2b Toma Kami. Huge Soundsystem, perfect hosting and curation, peak time set time, and a packed room with best crowd.

Can you name a secret weapon that you use frequently?

Lao Gan Ma Crispy Chilis.

Three recent releases that caught your attention?

Saya Gray – QWERTY II
Amnesia Scanner & Freeka Tet – HOAX
Tim Shatnyy – Beyond Dualism (Forthcoming debut album, coming out on November 22nd)
