WHATâS INSIDE 5 MAG #204?
Reggie Dokes: The Searcher. Reggie Dokes is a producer, a DJ, a composer for films and one of the most fascinating artists to emerge from Detroit in the â00s. Known for a sound âexperimental, soulful, eclectic, spiritual, all of those things wrapped into one,â Dokes became known for wildly original, heady tracks â techno that was could be meditative and intimate, soulful tracks that were energetic and galactic and deep tracks that bear a startlingly unique personal signature.
In this quintessential 5 Mag story, Terry Matthew talks to Dokes on the journey of the modern artist â the search, in the tradition of the great diaspora searchers like Sun Ra, for success, artistic fulfillment and what we have to put up with to find that perfect beat. Photos by Nile Dokes.
Maggie Tra: Kingdom of Her. Producer, DJ, educator, impresario: Maggie Tra steps forward from the field with a visionary release. A 5 Mag profile on the release of her debut album Kingdom of Her.
Dos: Two Years of Aterral Records. In a little more than two years, Aterral has released a crateâs worth of outstanding material amplifying a certain strain of deep house â those warm, richly textured deep grooves that leave behind a trace of spiritual resonance in the air. They call it âdeep, life-affirming house, two-step and minimal,â and thatâs what it is. 5 Mag talks to Carlo, who also put together this issueâs cover mix, on the first 18 records from Aterral.
