A dreamy selection of crackling vinyl in the afternoon sun delights the senses, as Montana brings us a tasty treat from the west coast's warmth and sunshine 💛 We have truly been blessed by the queen of balearica joining the commune for Ep3. 
Sit back and let the music wash over you xx

automatic writing w/ Tender Buttons (October 2020)

A selection of dollar bin 7"s from the late 80’s / early 90’s. Majority b-side instr versions with a few vocals thrown in. No crazy expensive digi killers - these are fairly easy to get your hands on. Stuff that I have dug up over the years that perhaps the vocal didn’t do it for me but the flip made it interesting enough to keep. Monotonous bass, rolling drums - at times intense and industrial sounding. Sparse spaced out synths with dubbed out vocals on top.

DJ Earl Grey takes you through a box of music he recently received from the Séance Centre in Canada – a label, publisher and distributor “conjuring timeless music from past, present and future.” Séance Centre was founded in 2017 by Brandon Hocura, previously one half of Invisible City Editions. Since its inception, the label has worked on releases with Beverly Glenn Copeland, Museum of No Art, MJ Lallo, Vito Ricci and has recently begun uncovering underexposed and eccentric dance music through its sub-label Mixed Signals.

The Séance Centre record shop features records from the labels’ own rapidly growing catalogue, fairly-priced unique dead stock finds and a small selection from likeminded labels from across the globe. It’s one of those rare stores where the selections seem like a personal insight into the tastes of the curators.

The Best Effort Show - Episode Seventeen (Seancé Centre Selections)

Where has 2020 gone? 

We are almost out the other side of this insane year, and we at GGHQ hope that you are all safe and sound. The music never stops, and we hope that our friends have all found some solace and enjoyment through the simple acts of listening, discovering & sharing. 

We're super happy to see out 2020 with this, our last mix of the year. We couldn't be in better hands to be honest. Øyvind is a top selector, producer, remixer and he is one of those DJ's who is beyond versatile. He just knows music inside and out and is a formidable talent in the booth... genre and sounds are no barriers to him and his own style is unmatched. A longtime former resident at Oslo's clubbing institution JAEGER, Øyvind held down Wednesday nights there for a decade plus welcoming a host of global DJ luminaries and tastemakers into his zone. 

Here we find Øyvind in a relaxed mood, combing his impressive collection for more spaced out and downtempo grooves, offering a deep selection to soothe and get lost in. We're really pleased to present this lovely mix to you from our friend and someone who we feel is a true talent out there in the vast world of music we all inhabit. Spark one up, and shadow dance with us....

“Listening is not the same as hearing and hearing is not the same as listening. Listening is selecting and interpreting and acting and making decisions. Listen to everything all the time and remind yourself when you are not listening."
