Please visit samurai.fm for the newest radio show featuring Berlin's finest, ND_Baumecker. ND plays for three solid hours with only vinyl (yes 100%) and coffee. A must listen, we don't even have a track list to share ... that's how good it is.
Summer is synonymous with long, good mixes. To encourage the warm weather, a few of the mvmnt's friends have put together some of their favorite tracks. Enjoy.
First, Jerry Abstract brought us one of his legendary sets from fave night 'Broken Disco'. Check out this mix here.
Next, impress your friends with Andrew Luck's mix. Always doing his best to flip it around, do not miss him or his crew from Street Ritual. You'll find Luck's mix here.
Also, you'll find a new mix from Riow over at samurai.fm. A recent visit to AMS & Mugfrosty's house found them laying some turntables over Riow's followup to Electric Emerald (due in the future on Libyus). Worthy new sounds.
 We see spring on the horizon .... as the snow thaws, the mvmnt starts getting packages in the mail.
scientific american has launched the 5th edition of his epic mix series mass.dstrction over at samurai.fm. While at mass.dstrction's core is the desire to simply deliver an entertaining listen, mass.dstrction goes much deeper...digging into the concepts of copyright, authorship, ownership, the artistic relevence of dj skills and mixing...all of which can be distilled to one simple question: "who owns sound?". We encourage a listen to previous editions of this beautiful series ... after that head over to samurai.fm for the newest!
News.
- We have new mass.mixes arriving from Riow Arai, Jerry Abstract and Andrew Luck. Amazing, we're glad to have them on board.
- While waiting for the new FCS LP to be delivered we're prepping an updated release of their ARC EP. This version will include remixes from fucking in the streets and recent mass collaborator Turk Deafeans (among others).
- Threats of scientific american and time promises power records are on the horizon.
 Visit samurai.fm for the newest installment of mass.mvmnt radio (properly #3). For this edition we headed down to Los Angeles to visit Nongenetic. It was one of those 'you have to do this non' moments. A few steps into his studio, and you just have to know what all the masters on the wall are to. So Non hosted and put together an amazing mix of projects present past and future.
Featuring production from the mvmnt's FCS + Funckarma, Riow Arai, Supersoul, Strand & more ... this set is not to be missed. After listening to this catch up with Riow's mvmnt mix.
A new mass.mvmnt radio session on samurai.fm mix is now up. Check it out here. Features some of our recent faves + mvmnt edits and the yet-unreleased remix from Caro of Time Promises Power's 'tonight the stars revolt'. The next samurai.fm mix is being hosted by nongenetic - he's been putting together a blend of tracks over the last week. Beautiful.
Upcoming shows from Scientific & FCS coming up this October. Hope to see you out.
Upcoming releases? Time Promises Power have been hiding in their NO studio for the last many many months. We've heard some songs over the phone, and they keep threatening to send us a new LP. More on some other releases soon.
xoxo - Mass
ps. if you sent us a demo, letter or present to our PO box in the month of August there's a good chance the US postal system sent it back. We're not sure why; but apologies to any of those special gifts.
 Enjoying Summer?
We're happy to announce the debut of mass.mvmnt radio over at samurai.fm. As avid listeners of the UK/JP based station, we were honored with an invite to contribute regularly to the samurai community.
For the first installment, we asked long-time friends and production partners Scientific American and FCS North to represent the mvmnt. There's much beauty in hearing them cross genres and share some recent findings from their record bags. The result is a mass.dstction.inthe.fall sort of an affair. Great for Summer listening.
In our continuing efforts to bring you new sounds, we'll be delivering you new mass.mvmnt radio shows every month or so. Look for hidden jems, DJ sets, unreleased mvmnt tracks and remixes + guest spots from the mass roster mixed in with our fave tracks. We highly recommend spending some time with Samurai.FM's archives, there's some amazing shows in there.

Thank you listeners and DJs. Across the US you've kept Riow Arai + Nongenetic climbing the charts and in rotation.
San Francisco's KUSF has R+N at #7 on the hip-hop charts (sharing space with TTC, EL-P). Seattle based KEXP has RA + N moving up - this week its in the variety charts at #28 and a climbing #3 slot in the hip hop charts. Keep those requests going in to your fave stations!
Digital listeners take note ... look for RA+N on itunes and other digital distribution now. Also, be on the lookout for mass.mvmnt radio in the next few weeks ...
Riow Arai + Nongenetic drops on April 24th. While you're counting down the days until you have that long player in your hands, check out Riow's mvmnt mix.

Her extraordinary ability to convey complex and poetic ideas using simple forms and natural materials weds a deep interest in the forces of nature with a long-term investigation into the possibilities of sculpture.
