Tomorrow is a solo show from @sapphicfaggot warming up for this weekend’s daylong rave Saturator, a little dream I’ve been dreaming for a long time and finally brought to life, thanks to Edge Case familiars and worldwide sensations @mic_wave and @marcelrosasalas of @positivedeviancenyc, who just launched their fundraiser this week for another year of programming - click their page & get in on that!! I’ll see what happens on tomorrow’s show as I pull up to @makerparkradio and unfurl my sails to navigate the crates. I’ve got some new stuff and took a few things out of rotation to prepare for my typical total improvisation just feeling where to go from moment to moment. That’s the only way to truly play for me, high risk but high reward. That’s how I’m hitting Saturday too between some b2bs with the illustrious @ashtpayne1 and @duckiewuzhere. High energy, discovery, artistic frission. Join? by @edgecase.worldwide

This Friday we are so looking forward to hosting an amazing Edge Case show on @makerparkradio @__reemoabd and @ashtpayne1 on the decks for 2 hours total, officially inaugurating our new every-other-week frequency on air. These two visionary sound collagists & disc jockeys have been working on an offering that I can't wait to put out to the steam and to the infinite replay on vimeo archive. Tune in from noon to two on Sept 25th! Two selfies layered over a background photo of green foliage with blue cloudy sky above. The selfies are of Rain to the left and Ash to the right, two Black gender variant people both wearing over the ear headphones. Rain, to the left, is smiling and looking into the camera, with silver metal eyeglasses, silver chain necklaces and the top of a coat visible, standing in front of a tree only visible by its bark showing that the photo is taken up against a tree trunk. Ash to the right is looking away from the camera which is angled below their face. He is wearing rimless sunglasses that conceal his eyes, a white tank, a silver chain necklace, and an open button down. Behind him is a tree trunk with green leaves visible. On the bottom of the post image there’s black pixelated text over a white background that says “Edge Case 009.2: w/ Rainforest & ashtroboi, Sept 25 2026 • 12:00 - 14:00 EST @ MakerParkRadio.nyc.” In the upper left corner is a bright yellow barely legible marking that is the logo of Edge Case radio. taken in MakerPark Radio - makerparkradio.nyc by @edgecase.worldwide

This Friday Edge Case 009.1 is a solo show with Mars Dietz p.k.a. @sapphicfaggot bringing tracks from a freshly reorganized library featuring folders such as "HEHEHE," "SOUNDCLOUDESQUE," and some homemade "SF BLENDS" picked ripe from the vine. I'll be warming up for a few exciting things coming up this month and next; an apocalypse-themed event from performer / organizers @leyyi99 and @j_boooggie where I'll do some hybrid DJing with @ashtpayne1 on Sept 26th, then in early October I have something seuuu unforgettable cooking with some Edge Case familiars here in Brooklyn, to be announced v soon. Tune in to @makerparkradio on Friday for some house, kuduro, d&b, leftfield club, techno, acapellas; we'll have some fun this week & this new season. 😈 Music on the post is Avernian's "Maadi" from the 2022 album of the same name. by @edgecase.worldwide

Happy Birthday week to @queershoulders, our next guest joining @edgecase.worldwide for their first all-vinyl set! danilo is a poet, curator, critic, and DJ whose editorial ear brings us unexpected collisions of pop references shimmering with wit, humor and joyful experimentation. Together with @how.we.imagine, they founded and continue to organize @exquisitesbk, now sibling to @exquisitesbay. danilo and I had the pleasure of working together on events with @outerlistening where we've communed in co-creating gatherings that mixed creative experimentation, collective care and a little bit of ass shaking. I'm particularly excited for danilo to haul their vinyl out to Staten Island and give us all a taste of their amazing collection. Don't forget to log in to the world wide web this Friday from noon-to-two NYC time to @makerparkradio at mpr.nyc, makerparkradio.nyc or with their very own Maker Park Radio app! A pixelated blue-tinted selfie taken by danilo who is centered wearing a hooded vest with the hood up, a white pair of glasses and a kn95 boat shaped mask with a silk scarf. They are leaning over a pioneer mixer and are looking at the camera with smize. Over the portrait the partly illegible yellow logo of Edge Case is placed. At the bottom of the image a white strip with black text reads "Edge Case 008: w/ danilo machado a.k.a. Queer Shoulders, 14 August 2026 12:00-14:00 EST @ MakerParkRadio.nyc" taken in MakerPark Radio - makerparkradio.nyc by @edgecase.worldwide

This Friday July 17, Edge Case will be back on air from 12-2 on the beloved @makerparkradio with host Mars Dietz aka @sapphicfaggot on the decks for two hours. With wildfire smoke in the air and summer heat on our skin, let’s take a listen back to the stone cold days of winter, when Edge Case was born with a few clips from our first 2 shows. On Friday, I think I’ll do what I usually do - an improvised traversal through the deep digital crates of my USB. Feeling clubby with a chance of thunderstorms… join!

Slide 1: HHY & The Kampala Unit’s track “Science of Dust” from their **extraordinarily** good 2020 album “Lithium Blast” ❤️‍🔥

Slide 2: Field Recording loop mixed with Gossamers: I from Rosalind Hall and Judith Hamann’s free improvisation album Gossamers ❤️‍🔥

Slide 3: Kingdom’s crowdpleasing “Gasolina Chant” mixed with Nic as Well (fka Lemonick)’s bootleg of the late Hossam Ramzy’s “Ya She Eyya” ❤️‍🔥 by @edgecase.worldwide

Meet Mars Dietz, host of Edge Case. Mars is an intermedia sound artist and DJ from Brooklyn whose work takes many forms, from the club style and experimental DJ sets of Edge Case, to outdoor sound sculpture, to hardware electronic live sets in stereo and multichannel. Mars’ solo work is often research-driven, touching on topics such as climate catastrophe (Detuning, 2025); freedom-seeking revolt and disobedience to linear time (Time Demonstrations, 2026); and a critique of human rights discourses’ focus on the confessional subject (Freedom from Speech, 2018). 

Mars started DJing while living in Berlin, and became resident at the legendary underground party BODYSNATCH from ~2016-2023. For Mars, DJing is a way of grabbing hold of, twisting and bending time itself, bringing audiences along for the ride. The inherently pluralistic, dialogic and multiple nature of club style mixing allows for the multiplicity of the DJ set to reflect complex real world conditions, opening up the dancefloor to the grief, longing, passion, contradiction and catharsis that always simmers underneath moments of joy in a world like ours.

Edge Case takes its name from a concept in engineering describing problems or anamolies that occur only in rare extreme (mis)use cases of a system. The widespread normalization of algorithmic recommendation in consumer listening patterns (i.e. streaming apps) and the top-down enforcement of LLM chatbots that fundamentally and exclusively output averages, both make it so that "edge cases" and anamolous outputs are more and more erased from the commons. In a world governed by mathematical averging, Edge Case is an exclusively human-driven corner resisting algorithmic flattening to explore fringes in sonic exploration, using the possibilities of club and electronic music as a point of departure. 

Edge Case is every fourth Friday from 12-2pm. Next show is on July 17th. Tune in at Maker Park Radio NYC, the coolest radio station on the fringe of the city! @makerparkradio just celebrated their 9th anniversary yesterday - big love to this amazing, vibrant community resource Edge Case is proud to be part of. A portrait of Mars, a fair skinned white person looking into the camera, with short brown hair underheath a black ball cap, wearing a mesh and multicolor shirt with teals and blues. Behind the image, a purple border that looks like a photo of a sunset. To the right of the portrait is illegible lettering in yellow that says "Edge Case," it's the Edge Case logo. On the upper right hand side the Maker Park Radio logo is visible. taken in MakerPark Radio - makerparkradio.nyc by @edgecase.worldwide

I’m so fortunate to have met the two DJs, artists, brilliant minds ashtroboi and Duckie Casanova @duckiewuzhere in 2026, and even more fortunate to have had them on Edge Case in April. They both bring focused craftsmanship, creativity, expressiveness, joy, and passion to their DJing in a way that is clearly resonant, electrifying and filled with attention - the latter of which seems otherwise sapped from our desaturating world. Both ashtroboi and Duckie Casanova read their own poetry out into the mix interweaving words, worlds and layers of experience. This is one of two clips of those readings, ft. Duckie’s work, which are now stuck in my head with the melody and timing of spoken words hitting lyrically - IG puts time limits on carousels so click around for more clips on the grid and add some depth to your scroll today. Don’t forget to check out Duckie Casanova’s substack @venusiandelusions and go further down the cosmic rabbit holes opened by his pen… AND Both DJs are spinning THIS SATURDAY at @nyc.m4m party4ppe at @hexh0use… where I’ll be once AGAIN lucky to join the fun. Come hear, I am actually so serious, these two are sure to imbue your spirit with the rich effervescence they both so deftly carry… by @edgecase.worldwide

We’re all blessed to have ashtroboi as a new voice on the decks bringing a broad horizon of musical discernment and preternatural groove wisdom to our ears and bodies. Duckie brings such a depth of (+embodied) knowledge with constellational intermedia inflections to his traversal of sound in a set. Both ashtroboi and Duckie Casanova read their own poetry out into the mix interweaving words, worlds and layers of experience.

This has been a bigg month, so this Friday's Edge Case is gonna be a solo show. Thinking of playing music I used to listen to in 2007 - 2016 from my very extensive "scrobbled" list on last.fm. Or maybe some things from the "Weird Music" folder on my USB? Audio on this post is recorded from some no-input mixer improvisations I did when I had the Mackie HMX-56 which really was the best... And in the image that's my ipad loosely tied to a stack of books, how's that for a tripod? Will YOU tune in Friday from noon to two??? I promise to entertain. Besos! by @edgecase.worldwide
