    the whole biography
    We're at the point where any music you want can come out of any THING you want, at any time of the day, at any price you're willing to entertain. It’s beyond overwhelming — which is to say off the bat: There's something just nice about a good old-fashioned FM radio show like Beats In Space. Every Tuesday night at 10:30pm, anybody within radius of WNYU's transmitter can tune into 89.1 FM for this dance music show hosted by the DJ Tim Sweeney. Tim has had the show since he was a college student—so 15 years now. And while he'd bristle at the idea of himself being a "renowned DJ" (he is) or even an "in-demand DJ" (ditto), I'll say that if you love dance music, few things are better than Tim’s show. You can also listen online afterwards. But especially when I listen live, it feels a lot like eavesdropping. Special guests drop in to play records (Prosumer, Seth Troxler), regulars swing by and heckle (Juan Maclean, Doug Lee), and at least one recurring caller, a temperamental man named Victor from Washington Heights, weighs in with praise and less-than-praise. This is as close as you can get to a clubhouse — the sound and soundtrack of friends playing new songs for each other, talking about music, razzing each other for things you can't quite understand. It’s easy, for me at least, to see why Tim became the center of all this. I and other music people are drawn to his quiet enthusiasm, his devotion to craft, his sense of New York history. He’s had good mentors too. Tim interned with the legendary Steve Stein — Steinski — who legendarily would take a whole week to prep a single two-hour radio mix. Tim also interned at DFA Records under James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy, right when things were getting good. (Trivia: You can hear Tim play sax on the DFA remix of Radio 4's "Dance To The Underground.”) From there he became a mainstay at the legendary DFA parties in the early and mid 00s, and developed a reputation as a DJ not for his skill or taste but for his empathy—having a sixth sense to him about when he could take a party to another plane. Like the time he played the first Holy Ghost! 12” at Studio B... I was there! Then there’s Beats In Space Records. I don’t know how Tim finds the time to run this impeccable label of his—now into double digits. But it doesn’t surprise me that, between Tim traveling the world and the world traveling to Tim, he finds great tunes that would otherwise slip by the rest of us. After A Laughing Light of Plenty’s beardo-disco stomp “The Rose”, Tim approached the group’s Eddie Ruscha with a simple question: Is there anything else? That’s how Secret Circuit came to be— killer psych techno disco pop, which is a neat enough summation of Tim’s tastes too. Since then BIS has released gritty schaffel (Gonno’s “Are You Asleep”), spartan house (Jee Day’s "Sum Of Love"), and soft-focus noir-pop (Paradis's "Hemisphere"). All those are monsters, but the story I keep coming back to is Lauer. Before Philip Lauer released music on Tim’s label, he was a fan of Tim’s show. And I like to think I can hear the Beats In Space influence in Lauer’s “Macsat Ring Down” — the clean, glitchy rhythms that fit together puzzle-like, the call and response bass and lead lines, the slow drip of overdrive. It seems custom built for Tim. Total hogwash maybe, and Tim would blush at the suggestion. As a radio host, DJ, label honcho — in any of these humble roles, let alone all of them, Tim’s aim is humble too: Make people excited about the music that excites him. But here he is: releasing records on Beats In Space that he would play on Beats In Space radio, by artists influenced by records Tim previously played on Beats In Space... I mean, wow, right? Snake got your tongue, Tim? If he won’t gloat, I will.

    New York City · 19 bookings since Aug 2023

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    THE BARONESS OF SLUDGE & EROTICISM As a dj, L.Sangre has haunted the depths of New York City’s mutant electronic underbelly for over a decade and counting. Dark industrial roots and a Latin background inform her musical style by fueling her romanticism and inherent passion in the innumerable forms they can take. From selection to execution, her process is intentional and while she’s able to entrance with rhythms that satiate, she equally relishes the opportunity to dip into extremes and out of the listener’s comfort zones, for an ecstatic push & pull. In blending raw, hard, at times abrasive mutant electronic, techno, EBM, wave, & acid and alternating with effortlessly woven melodic elements, she casts spells. Hers is a musical psychological seduction– as she revels digging into the trenches of your soul to compel you to ~Feel~ all spectrums from light to darkest. Early on feature mixes for former renowned “oppositional surrealist happening” and underground party/collective Hugo Ball (Chicago) as well as SF’s HoneySoundSystem introduced her presence to a national/international underground house/techno/electronic scenes, and in later years her seminal “All My Bleeding Passions” mix for L.I.E.S. further showcased her penchant for more abrasive outlier techno & industrial roots. Throughout the years she’s made several appearances on The Lot Radio as well popping up on Rinse France. As NYC based collective Lost Soul Enterprises’ “Resident Witch” she has helped conceive of, book talent, and dj for their parties for the GoodRoom residency over the years in addition to the many warehouse parties of yore. She would independently establish herself as a fixture of NYC nightlife regularly playing GoodRoom,Basement, Output (RIP), Bossa, Nightmoves, as well as repeated West Coast jaunts (LA/SF), Berlin spells and all in between including notable moments for Club Toilet (Detroit), and longstanding Bay Area festival Sunset Campout. A formative and life changing bond with friend/mentor Juan Mendez/aka Silent Servant would eventually result in their collaboration as EBM/techno/electro project Limit-Xperience, the moniker under which they would release 2 EP’s on their own imprint Orden Extática. . Born from a craving to fulfil a missing dark depth to New York, Sangre has recently rebirthed her SHAME! party in tandem with Liz Wendelbo of Xeno & Oaklander. SHAME!’s previous iteration of few offs, having been a collaboration with Pieter Schoolwerth of instrumental NYC cold wave/minimal synth/experimental party Wierd, sets a high bar for a feeling and flame SHAME! attempts to reignite. While SHAME! of today maintains a musical focus on cold wave/minimal synth/experimental/industrial/post punk and the like, this iteration’s mission was conceived as an equal parts vehicle for their visual art and an immersion in/exploration of the senses. At each monthly event the two showcase these cumulative works via projections of their respective films, video collage, and more. RHYTHMIC. BODY. MUSIC. 1/2 of Limit-Xperience Disciplinarian @ Orden Extática Resident Witch @ Lost Soul Enterprises.
