Call Super to release mix CD compilation for Dekmantel, shares new track, ‘Mothertime’: Listen

Call Super is releasing a mix CD for Dekmantel, titled ‘A Rhythm Protects One’.

Shortened to ‘ARPO’, the title of the Berlin-based DJ and producer’s 2017 studio album, the release aims to honour the lost art of the mix CD amid a world of online DJ streams.

The mix features 12 unreleased tracks, including two by Call Super and an additional one under their Ondo Fudd alias. The other tracks are all by unknown producers, who may or may not be further monikers of Call Super, real name Joe Seaton, themselves.

In a statement about the mix, Seaton said: “There is a line in the Malgo & KVS track that goes, ‘I must be the place where the storm catches breath’. The line captures that feeling of the best of times in a club, where everything slips away in terms of time and you feel like you’ve reached a place beyond the outside world, a place of your own that is somehow communal with those around you.

“The mix was meant to be an honest reflection of those moments for me as a DJ. The zones that somehow encapsulate the physical and mental harmony you feel in that place. This is a mix for that zone.”

Physical copies of the mix CD will first be available at this year’s Dekmantel festival in Amsterdam, taking place from 30th July-3rd August, before being released more widely on 11th August. A digital release will follow on 28th September.

For now, you can listen to one of Call Super’s new original productions from the mix, ‘Mothertime’, below.
