Hello

Tony here. I am a record collector, DJ-on-hiatus, label-owner and sometimes-promoter. Press Test is my experiment with writing intelligently and engagingly on dance music new and old.

I have been DJ’ing and throwing parties since 2012. In 2016 I started my labels, is / was & was / is. My third label, TerraFirm was launched in 2018.

  • Labels: Bandcamp / Soundcloud / YouTube / Discogs

  • Live Recordings and Podcasts: Soundcloud

  • Hot Mass

Press Test!

Expect about four posts per month. Most will be freely available but some will require a paid subscription.

Free Subscribers

Free subscribers have access to:

  • Monthly round-ups of my favorite new (mostly vinyl) releases

  • Reflections on classic and slept-on records

  • Interviews with the game’s movers and shakers

  • Mixes!

  • Whatever else I feel like writing about!

Paid Subscribers

A paid subscription is $4/month or $40 annually. Paid subscribers have access to:

  • A monthly Frugal Grips column in which I share some of my favorite easily-had second-hand records

  • Long-form features that require dogged journalistic zeal

  • Mixes! (with tracklists!)

  • Sincere gratitude for supporting my efforts here <3

Get Involved!

I love talking about music! A big part of starting Press Test is to spark conversation and connect with friends new and old. Please do not hesitate to jump in the comments or shoot me a line directly via email: tony@iswaswasis.com. I’d love to hear from you!
