Local Form: Different Shades
The Loading_error member displays a knack for cerebral and atmospheric cuts…
Different Shades has been making waves around Melbourne's scene with her brand of diverse musical selections. A Malaysian DJ based in Melbourne, she is an integral part of the curation for the multidisciplinary label LOADING_ERROR. Her sound, which can range from dubby, deep and emotive, to more bass-heavy and hard-hitting styles, is perpetually shaping her to deliver a dynamic experience on the dance floor. To date, she has taken the stage at festivals such as Hopkins Creek and has supported revered international acts including Pariah, Matrixxman, Anthony Linell & Tin Man. She will also be on support duties for the upcoming Bunker & stranger presents Paula Temple show.
Classic track:
Sadie Glutz - Sexy Sadie (Starecase Remix) [Strong Language EP, 1997]
‘Highly underrated classic track, one of my all-time favourites. Euphoric electro with trancey acid lines and beautiful ambient soundscapes. Way ahead of its time. To think this track was made the year I was born is insane to me!’
CUrrent track:
Mehen - Skin Confessions (Intellectual Version) [I’ve Heard A Lot About Harmony EP, 2019]
‘Filthy but dreamy broken beat from Hadone’s alter ego. The first release from Mama Snake’s label Amniote Editions straight outta Copenhagen. Such a weapon of a track.’
First Track:
Sleep D - Bush Snake [The Jackal Pt. 2, 2016]
‘I can’t remember the first track I'd ever bought, but this is the first record I bought after buying my first proper turntable back in 2016. Sleep D is one of Melbourne’s best, and ‘Bush Snake’ is a really sentimental track to me.’
