Will Kinsella - Ceoltronic Radio Podcast

This show covered the 16th edition of the ADE and also marked 6 years of broadcasting for Ceoltronic Radio and myself. Starting off life as a late night three deck mix show (with very little chat) on Raidio na Life. 3 years later I was approached by RTE and Ceoltronic was on its way to Montrose. Now I'm broadcasting Live on Thursday nights and also doing features for 2FM (Ceoltronic Radio Presents). It's been a good trip so far. 

This show is pretty much wall to wall interviews. I was lucky enough to speak with some excellent artists and people I have a huge amount of respect for. This is part of the reason why I love ADE.

DJ mixes were provided by DJ Miss Monica and Jerry T from Compound Music. 

Looking forward to 2012! 

Interviews include:

Click (Cork) Presents Will Kinsella @ the Pavilion 11/11/2011

Cork promoters "Click" booked me in to do a show for their monthly night down in The Pavilion. This was my first visit to Cork in 8 years when I was the Heineken Thirst All Ireland finalist judged by Daniel Devoli and Tiesto. Many moons, radio shows and hours in the studio later I made my way down to the South West for another show. 

On the Thursday night before the gig I did a trial run of my set on my radio show Ceoltronic. When I got home I decided to go through more tracks for the show in question. I was ready to roll by 5:30 am. It was time to get some sleep for the long drive down. 

I arrived in Cork city and met with Ian and Stephen from Click. I freshened up and we hit Kavanagh's for pints and the Ireland match. No fancy pants restaurants necessary. We made our way to the Pavilion where John Barry was getting ready to warm up. John delivered a really solid warm up set and had the crowd ready to go for midnight. 

What happened next is in this podcast (My unreleased tracks at the start and end of the set have been cut out for obvious reasons). This turned out to be one of my best shows yet. The venue and the crowd were amazing. The night couldn't have gone better. I'm took a lot of energy back to the studio from the whole experience. 

I ended up staying down in Cork until sunday on the beer with the lads and their mates. Savage craic, savage weekend. 

Looking forward to the next one in 2012. 

Thanks again everyone

While getting ready for a gig in Cork (Click Presents Will Kinsella @ the Pavilion 11/11/11) I was going through likely tracks I would be playing on the night and about 90 minutes in I noticed that a majority of the stuff I was playing was either from an Italian producer or label. A testiment to the standard of Techno coming out of Italy at the moment. Joseph Capriati and Sasha Carassi have been regular features on Ceoltronic Radio over the years. One of my first interviews on Ceoltronic was with Markantonio too so I am delighted that the Italian connection with Ceoltronic is still going strong. I think this calls for a full two hour feature in future.

Coincidentally I've also recently signed two tracks to Sasha Carassi's Globox imprint. 

Respect to everyone in the scene over there. Keep up the great work.

This show saw Cari Lekebusch and Alexi Delano join me for a 2 hour H-Productions feature. Over the two hours we celebrated "The Path of Hybrid" compilation which was released at the beginning of October. Features extensive interviews with Cari and Alexi about the compilation and about their studio work (continuing with the producer in focus series). Hope you enjoy!!

Press Release:

The Path Of Hybrid is a specially constructed three-disc compilation that has been designed to chart the musical history of Cari Lekebusch’s H-Productions label. Containing almost fifty tracks, the album blends re-mastered tracks from the labels deep catalogue with specially commissioned re-edits and remixes of classic Hybrid tracks and the pick of new music from the current H-Productions roster. The album is presented across two continuous DJ mixes, compared by Alexi Delano (Past Mix) and Cari Lekebusch (Present Mix) plus a third unmixed disc containing previously unreleased tracks and remixes from the H-Productions vaults.

The brainchild of Swedish sound architect, Cari Lekebusch, H-Productions has come to be known the world-over as a brand that is synonymous with the evergreen techno scene. Often credited with serving as inspiration to a generation of electronic music producers, the label mirrors the creative attributes of its founder; earning a reputation as a diverse and evolutionary force within techno thanks to the steady stream of quality productions that collectively make up an enviable back catalogue that began in 1994 and will hit the landmark of ninety-five releases by the time the label clocks up its eighteenth year at the end of 2011.

Such longevity is testament to Lekebusch’s unwavering commitment to quality and his desire to constantly move things forward. Once described by Cari himself as ‘anything but ordinary’, 2011 will witness H-Productions take yet another significant step on its already remarkable journey. Taking inspiration from the original name of the label – Hybrid Productions – this latest chapter of the story will reflect the theme of mixing, fusing and cross-breeding musical elements to create a unique amalgamation of sounds, styles and influences across both the live performance medium and the labels recorded output.

In order to help bring this ambitious idea to life, Lekebusch has recruited a select group of classic techno names that will collaborate musically and in with performances to create a release and events schedule that will drive the H-Productions brand throughout 2011. Luke Slater, The Advent, Jesper Dahlbäck, Joel Mull, Alexi Delano and Tony Rohr have be contributing singles, albums and collaboration EP’s which have been supported by H-Productions events, staged at the best Techno venues across Europe including Berghain, Berlin; Fabric, London; Melkweg; Amsterdam; Kollingsbord, Stockholm and Komplex, Zurich.

Probably one of my best yet. This show broadcasted just after getting off the phone with Cari Lekebusch and Alexi Delano for a special 2 Hour H-Productions feature in October. Off the back of that I decided to place some focus on Swedish Techno for the evening. Hope you enjoy!!

Sian Bio:

When you have interests ranging from entomology,cosmology and marine biology, to the social impact of the rave generation,you tend to make unusual art.Sian stands out as a little more bohemian than the average electronic talent.Born in Dublin,Ireland,raised in southern Spain,he chose early to drop out of normal society and engage in the extraordinary.Adhering more to the avant-garde side of club culture,his tracks show an otherworldly,slow and hypnotic slant on techno.

Quickly developing an oeuvre of work that has appeared on Bedrock, Sci&Tec,Soma Pokerflat,plus his own white hot new Octopus label,his tracks have seen Beatport top ten positions and glowing reviews alike.From mags and blogs to international radio shows,his reputation for delivering huge slabs of peak time techno is snowballing.Reworked and remixed by talent like Steve Bug,Pan-Pot,Efdemin,Minilogue along the way,he has also dropped super big mixes for the likes of Guy J and Gui Boratto.

Having already toured half the world,schooling heaving crowds and bringing his trademark experimental DJ-ing style to the masses via multiple outputs of explosive techno,fx and loops-all cut up and edited live,His DJ sets at international clubs and festivals in Europe,USA,Canada,Eastern Europe,South America,Australia and beyond,have seen him bring real voodoo to the dancefloor every time.Also running his own nomadic "Octopus presents" events,with guests like Josh Wink,Anja Schneider,Damian Lazarus,Nick Curly and Secretsundaze etc rolling out the emerging clubnights warehouse aesthetics in Barcelona and Dublin.

His proudest undertaking yet,his own new techno imprint,Octopus recordings,is now recognized by peer and press alike as one to watch.Praised for its feverish tracks and raw sound,it has kickstarted a growing plethora of main room stompers and left field underground bombs.With remixes from esteemed names like Carlo Lio,Ramon Tapia,DVS1,Joel Mull,Terence Fixmer,Ripperton,Gui Boratto,Norman Nodge,Jonas Kopp and bright new talent like Calculus and Clement Meyer,the young imprint is already making loud noise.

His upcoming artist album,an inventive hybrid mix of original tracks and parts,spanning 130 mins and comprising over 1013 individual clips mixed into one session,will show a bold step in studio experimentation.The project illustrates some achingly smart new production techniques and features everyone from Carlo Lio to Terence Fixmer,remixing the vibrant singles.

Whether conducting everlasting sweat soaked DJ sessions or creating timeless dance music,Sian is a truly diverse and original talent,at once chic and debonaire,always intensely inventive.
