March is a big month for me. In addition to some big local SF gigs I have (including opening for Mr.C @ tutu tuesday), the highlight of this month is Ultra Week in Miami. I have a couple gigs lined up including an opening spot for Lee Burridge + Craig Richards on a tikki boat.  I'll be distributing this mix as a promo mix during my travels, and I think did a good job of capturing my peak hour sound: deep, driving, melodic, and at times, pretty (@ 35 min, for instance).
Tracklist coming soon.


atish - [012] - march 2011 - gurl

When working on this mix the image of a girl in sunglasses and a big gaudy hat (like this: http://bit.ly/njcrSf)  drinking lemonade kept popping in my head almost every time I worked on it...Perhaps the really nice San Francisco weather we're having (and our bizarre fashion sense) influenced my track selection and visual associations. The first few tracks of this mix open with a very very delicate, breezy, and sunny feel...the flute sounds at 11:34 [Marvin Zeyss - Hannah] are one of my favorite parts. The mid section of the mix gets just slightly trippy with reverberated sounds still floating along with a little more drive. It rounds itself out with a housey-influenced sound - a sound I don't explore that much...overbearing housey high-hats can get on my nerves. However, the prominent organ sounds complemented by round beautiful bass  on the last few tracks (like Roberto Rodriguez - I Keep Thinking of You @ 38:00) fit nicely into my vision of sitting outside on a summer afternoon drinking a cold sugary lemonade.

atish - [017] - august 2011 - lemonade

The last two mixes (lemonade and snapshot of how I feel) were light, melodic, and easy on the ears. I took this mix in another direction to showcase other moods of music I like and play. In this case, I was inspired by the idea "night time" music, which I interpret as more serious, driving, and dancefloor-oriented than the last two daytime vibey ones. Overall, I think I caught a few different feels in this mix while still holding together a single sound...I took a risk later in the mix when I mixed the "Tribe - Where Am I (Kyle Hall Remix)" curve ball out of a very techy track "Andri - Feel in Love With UUU", which was kind of fun, too.
