Informed Deconstruction: DJ Philosophy, Mashups & Experimental Sound
"When I listen to you make music, I have to either pay 100% attention or completely ignore it, there is no inbetween."
DJ/Mashup Philosophy
Subverting the Medium
halluciphile's approach to DJing and music production is rooted in the same "rule-breaking" philosophy as their visual art, using technical mastery to achieve creative novelty.
Convention-Breaking Techniques:
- Genre Fluidity: Deliberately avoids sticking to a single genre, creating unpredictable sonic journeys
- Asynchronous Beat Matching: Rejects exact BPM matching, using tempo shifts as creative tools
- High-Attention Audio: Demanding aesthetic that requires full listener engagement
Roots in Mashup Culture
The practice is heavily informed by early web mashup culture, particularly:
- YouTube Doubler platform experiments
- Facebook sharing communities (pre-2014)
- Cut-up artist methodology applied to sound
- Publicly available material as raw creative source
"This is the audio equivalent of glitch art: finding the natural break in the system and transforming it into a unique artistic style."
