mayhem, cheese, and attitude. A wild ride in a mess of styles. I really wonder where I could have played this.I left a short bit of silence between the different sides in the recording.Since I have no photos of me DJ'ing in those days I used this blurry one taken by Incubus/Antic at The Computer Crossroad, a 1993 Commodore 64 party in Gothenburg.
After incidentally doing the #onthisdaymix for April I couldn't resist looking back at what I had posted in March. So, eventually it resulted in me taking 35 of those 88 records on a crazy ride - not knowing where it would take us. All the way around it seems, and back again. The records are old, the equipment is old, I am old, I am part of the equipment.Still not too shabby.So I decided to upload it. Right after the one from April, to stay in line with the disorder. Now I have a bunch of records to return to their right places.
Out of the 107 birthday records I posted in April I picked 31 and recorded a mix, or a chaotic journey if you wish. It felt like an interesting idea to see what I could do within these limitations. So it's kind of an experiment. Putting tracks together is always interesting, to see what happens.
At some point in 2016 I was going wild'n'crazy with my records; just mashing anything together, and lots of it, resulting in four experiments that I've now put together as a kind of mix, which I think works much better than as stand-alone tracks like originally released on RetouchEdit back then. Munnen full...
I've always loved Blancmange, and have an almost complete collection of their '80s records. After hearing about Stephen's passing I dug them all out to record this mix, and was reminded again of how great and timeless their music is. It's genuine, honest, innovative, intense and very direct, with a strong theatrical attitude. Their importance can never be overstated. My deepest condolences to Stephen Luscombe's family, and to Neil Arthur.

Since my first Freestyling Stream was received with such positive reactions, I decided to dig around on an old HDD in search for a second part that I remember doing. And here it is! From the 21:st of November 2006, on what was then called Discogs Radio, later Interstate FM.This one is deeper, techy & minimal. Mixed again using my old Inkel MX991 mixer and, just like the name implies, done unplanned and spontaneously - for the fun of it. Oh, and I edited out a skip at one point, just so you know in case you hear something suspicious. ;)https://zyron.c64.org/mixarchive.php | https://buymeacoffee.com/djzyron | https://facebook.com/djzyron/
Two long, hypnotic tracks; consisting of lost and found field recordings, rhythmic loops, and some more of my mess, on top, sometimes in reverse, to top it off, or the opposite. Just like the artwork, layers and layers of collected material. Hopefully someone will enjoy it, try with a fat subwoofer and headphones on!"There is no depth of the sea, just the height of the water."0x51d.bandcamp.com/album/shapedahs

Me playing random records spontaneously now and then during two wonderful weeks in April. <3I recorded several of these, in different styles, that I've uploaded during the past days.This is the last of them and it turned into a real beast, nearly seven hours long! I was seriously all over the place with this one; house, electro, italo, disco, synth-pop, freestyle, boogie, new beat, and on fire - I just didn't know how to stop playing. I hope you will enjoy listening, and maybe dancing, to it just as much as I did when recording it.aka Private Dance Party #3https://zyron.c64.org | https://facebook.com/djzyron | https://youtube.com/djzyron
Me playing random records spontaneously now and then during two wonderful weeks in April. <3I recorded several of these, in different styles, and plan to upload more of them.This started planlessly with some techno/house/electro before I went kind of astray and began rummaging my collection of '80s maxi-singles with synthalodisco-nrg and EBM for a while until it exploded in a huge cloud of Acid and Skacid. Chaotic but funny one!aka Private Dance Party #2https://zyron.c64.org | https://facebook.com/djzyron | https://youtube.com/djzyron
Me playing random records spontaneously now and then during two wonderful weeks in April. <3I recorded several of these, in different styles, and plan to upload more of them.Here I was frenetically digging around in the house'ish old sections of my collection, causing quite a mess in several ways.aka Private Dance Party #1https://zyron.c64.org | https://facebook.com/djzyron | https://youtube.com/djzyron
Me playing random records spontaneously now and then during two wonderful weeks in April. <3I recorded several of these, in different styles, and plan to upload more of them soon.This is a slow one, mixed mostly based on key and atmosphere.Meanwhile you can always visit https://zyron.c64.org/mixarchive.php for hundreds of streams and mixes from me. Enjoy!
Something made me dig out all my records withThe Residents & Renaldo & the Loaf & SnakefingerThey are supposed to be listened to as an album at a time,but I messed it all up instead.Planlessly, so I don't even have a tracklist.Maybe it can serve as an introduction to those not familiar with them.
I thought it was about time for you all to move around with me for a while again, so here's number five in the series - to make you move and groove. Mixed from my vinyl records, as usual, in one spontaneous and mostly unprepared take. Enjoy!https://zyron.c64.org | https://facebook.com/djzyron
I need limitations to work within, and be restricted by, in one way or another, otherwise I easily get stuck and uncreative. So after well over a year of no mixes I suddenly got the idea of making an alternative version of an old mix, using the same records, played in the same order, but with different tracks from them. Finding all the records took quite some time of digging through my collection, but considering how interesting it turned out (I think) and the enjoyment I got out of doing this (I think) it was totally worth it (I think). This will probably not be my last endeavour in these realms (I think). I hope you will enjoy it too!
Earlier this week I suddenly got that urge of making a new mix and put some of my mess of records in order. I just have to wash my hands first, I thought - since I'm careful with my records and don't want to put fingerprints on them, and I feel I mix better with clean hands. There, by the sink in the bathroom, I somehow managed to do a strange move and my back snapped. It feels like a razor blade in your spine. And also in your mind, when you had a plan to do something. From one second to the other you can't do anything. Usually this means I can barely move and not walk for at least a week; stuck in bed, and this was a close one. But it turned out on the better side. Pain and hard to walk, but not totally disabled. Now, a couple of days later, I felt I really wanted to record that new mix I was thinking about. But since I've not yet fully recovered I decided to leave everything open and not focus on beat-mixing at all, so I recorded this instead.
Stuff in the 80-100 BPM region that I've piled up, moved around, and added to for quite some time now. Today I decided to give the selection a try, and I think I nailed it quite well, though they were all in the wrong order to begin with - so a lot of more messing around while recording. Those of you familiar with recording mixes know what I mean; with the next record in pitch and cued up you suddenly go for something else and just manage to make it before the track ends. Lots of that in this one, but it's always worth it. So if you're sometimes not sure what's happening, don't be alarmed! Neither was I. It just worked out. Now chill & space out to this selection, or move around slowly. Peace & Love & Glow!
I dug out a bunch of records quite randomly again, just to see what I could do with them. This time mostly beatmixed though a bit off at times, but mostly acceptable I think. On and off you can dance frenetically to it and later mellow out, cuddle and ponder if it really happened. Or was it just a phase of a passage in time, and space?
A sudden urge to play records. No plan, nothing prepared. Pitch was used mainly for key, not for beat matching. Records were picked from here & there as I went along. So, not as laid back as it might sound. Lots of lucky guesses & probably lost opportunities as well, since my records are in a mess & I just picked what was nearby. But that was also the point; what happens if I just record when I planlessly dig around. Well, this is the answer. Maybe I'll do more mixes like this in the future, since I have so much to dig around in. It's nice not to give a damn about beatmixing sometimes. It opens up for completely different things. I usually do a bit of both, but here I let something else decide completely.
Move Around four means more four on the floor for you to listen and dance to. It's house, or thereabout. Vinyl only and in one unprepared spontaneous take, as usual. I hope it will make you move your body and get down to the groove.

Now I bring you number 9 of my Music 4 Hours mixes. I have a huge backlog of selections sitting around, so I decided to get busy. My M4H selections aren't done based on what mixes best with what, or what would fill a dancefloor or not. There's not much thought or logic behind it, more emotions and a feeling about the music, variety and what I want to play at the moment. I usually prefer to play the complete tracks, either in key or tempo with the next one, so the mixing is just a bonus. I hope you will enjoy this one!

Anywave [one]; a part of a bigger selection of new wave, post-punk, synthwave, industrial, ndw, goth rock and such that had been sitting in a crate for months. It turned out to be a difficult selection to pull off so I decided to spread it over two or three separate mixes instead of a long one. Vinyl only and only one take, like always. Nothing is perfect. Enjoy the darkness!
The long overdue Music 4 Hours #8 is finally here! This selection had been sitting in a crate for many months waiting for me to deal with it, nagging me about it on a daily basis. But lack of motivation and energy in a body of pain had me in a grip of reluctance, until last night's insomnia when I decided to give it a try. So I hit record, and this is what came out of it. I think it turned out ok enough, and hope you'll enjoy it.

I had another chaotic mix session of post-punk-industrial-dark-new-synth-wave-ebm-electro-clash meant to dance and move around to in a dark place packed with sweating strangers going wild high on everything while the music takes it up an extra notch or two. Recorded using strictly vinyl in my empty apartment, far from the situation I imagined playing it in. But I hope you will enjoy the tracks anyway. Pumping up the volume and dance around in your living room is ok to do too, even if it's nowhere near a real experience. But I hope you can bring this mix into your own reality and place it where it belongs, and enjoy my effort despite some weak transitions. Thanks for listening, and please share it with others if it moves you.

Here we go again; house, techno, synthwave, electro, acid, italo, new wave, post-punk-dance, or something like that, to move around to. All wrapped-up in a confused mess; what just happened? You tell me. But I hope you'll enjoy the trip, and share it with others!

Suddenly I wanted to do something a bit more dancey, and just started recording. Completely unplanned, so I had to move around a lot trying to find what record to play next.
Around 120 BPM of house, acid, electro, nu-disco, spacesynth, techno & new wave; both soft and hard, dark and light. But with a steady beat to move around to.
I know mixes might be boring, but when placed in the middle of nowhere with no chance to get out and play, you're nobody. So put this on loud, and imagine being in a club, or at a festival, and tell me honestly if it wouldn't work.
Though it doesn't matter, read less of what I write and listen and dance to the mix instead. It's much better. Time is short, so enjoy yourselves.
But remember I can always be booked, even if I have to travel far, if you think it's worth it. I'm still waiting... djzyron@gmail.com
More tension and frustration from me. Here captured, and sometimes hidden, within two hours of twisted electronic slow-mo beats and dubby organic madness; with a stunning sunset to look at while listening, to make it slightly less haunting. Music by various artists and original photo by Jelena. Everything totally messed up by me, as usual.
If you enjoy what I do, and want to keep me motivated, please consider sharing my mixes with others, in every possible way.

After my recent upload of an unfinished older mix, which got quite good response, I felt like recording something new, and it became a second round of mainly '80s tracks dealing with both difficult and wonderful things, so I decided to call it part 2 of The Dance of Frustration. Not saying there will be another one, not saying there won't. Not saying anything at all. I'll let the music speak. But I think I did a bit better technically this time, while keeping several, contradictory themes together. Ups'n'downs, lows'n'highs, caused by loss and longing, love and loneliness. There's always a theme, a thread, or several; maybe hidden, or obvious? I don't know, I don't decide. Once it finds me, I just do it. I hope you can feel it too; the dance, and the frustration. Just take it, do it, live it, before you die.
Recorded and unfinished in August 2021, during one of many difficult periods. I stopped recording after about an hour because I felt it started to become too chaotic, and it made me feel exhausted. Put on hold since then, and nearly forgotten, after re-visiting it today I decided to unfold it in all its honest imperfection. And also because it's been way too long since I uploaded something "new", so I hope you will enjoy it. Consider following me on FB: https://facebook.com/djzyron
Four fragments of me put into context become content, like it should be heard; throughout as a piece, like life
Repeats / Frightened / Altruism / Moment
Got to get out of this place, got to get out
Everything's repeating itself itself itself
Got to get out of displace, everything is repeating itself itself itself
I don't understand!
Everyone is empty walking around, just pretending
Playing the game hide from yourself
Hide yourself
Hide from yourself playing the game
Everything repeats itself itself itself yourself; it's hell, your hell
Got to get out of this place, out of displace
Can't say no I don't know, cause I'm too frightened
Don't rely upon dependence
Don't waste time on that
Don't believe in reality
Don't waste time on that
Don't deny
Just let it all go
Take it all in Let it all go
All I really wanted to do was to spend this moment with you
Surprise! Here's already Music 4 Hours #7. More uptempo and dancey than the last one, and quite chaotic at times; some records are really reluctant to blend in nicely. ;)
Often when I mix I enter some kind of dream-state where I'm not really sure what I'm doing, where the different sounds come from, which records I pick, or how to stop my curiosity about what will happen if the transition between two records goes on for a (too) long time; what will happen if I step back? It always turns into an experiment; in harmonies, frequencies, tempo, and styles. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't, but I don't enjoy to play it safe or stay too long in the same genre.
This time I played records from Eno-Roedelius-Moebius, Robyn, Linear Movement, Victor Ark, Benoit & Sergio, Andy Romano, Kleerup, Xander Harris, Hypnotique, Makina Girgir, Trentemøller, Signal Aout 42, Naum Gabo, 4 for Money, Grace Jones, Slyck, Ultra Satan, Talking Drums, Jimi Goodwin, Mildlife, The Androids, A Certain Ratio, Goldfrapp, AKSK, Sally Shapiro, Filur, Admas, Knut Skodvin, Panta Rhei, Telex, Nordub, Woima Collective, Brigitte Bardot, Laughing Eye and more...

After being struck by the sad news of Florian Schneider's Tour de Heaven I dug out my Kraftwerk records and recorded a completely unprepared three hours long mix as a token of my appreciation. He will be missed. My thoughts go out to his family and everyone who knew him personally. It's a sad loss. Yet another pioneer has left us. Take care out there!

Staring at the screen, confused; if it is for real Wonder who I want to be, who will be me?
Looking after you, who looks after me? Who accepts the both of us to be, if it is for real?
We're in the dark, all of us, we have nowhere to turn Lost in the dark because we never learn
Don't know if I'm where I want to be How about you; what do you see? Are you staring at the screen, wondering who to be, or who you are?
We're in the dark, all of us, we have nowhere to turn Lost in the dark because we never learn
