Sharp FM 021: ACEMO for Record Superfamily

SK cover

To celebrate the release of the Record Superfamily, Sharp FM 021 comes courtesy of AceMo, one of NYC’s most prolific producers and DJs, who has been consistently pushing the boundaries of NYC’s contemporary club sound. Appropriately, Ace recorded this mix live: its high octane energy combines razor sharp edits with a human-touch looseness that leans into Record’s themes and design.

Ecstatically weaving through ‘80s and ‘90s acid and techno via London, Detroit, and New York, Ace finally jumps back to the present to highlight some of his closest collaborators like MoMA Ready and Swisha, while peppering in some unreleased material of his own. Cultural omnivores will perk up at cinematic nods to Ghost in the Shell and Blade, and club music aficionados will recognize Tim Taylor and Robert Hood’s undeniable influence throughout.

Designed by Johann Mossé and Quentin Berthelot of ImageFormat, Record has been published by Sharp Type in 2025 as two distinct families. Record Laser plays louder and sharper, while Record Disc possesses a more refined aesthetic. Taken together, the families are two sides of the same disc, fundamentally connected but offering different, if related, sensibilities.

Our first mix of 2025 is a testament to Record’s retro-futurist ethos and, like Record itself, will play beautifully in any number of contexts.
