From December 2020 through the end of February 2021 I did a weekly 1-hour mixshow on Twitch called DANCE '21. I purposely didn't archive anything, and the loving crew of folks who came back each week made it something really special. I did record this one episode cause I had a feeling it would be good, and it was. 29 tracks in 67 minutes, mostly electro & freestyle classics with some other stuff thrown in. The hotmix lives!!

DANCE '21: THE FREESTYLE EPISODE

passing it clockwise is good luck,
anyone can join the joy of joint, just choose a time and post ! #remotejoint

"this is all original & unreleased, mostly from 2020 & 2021 but some from 2018 or so. what they have in common is that i felt at peace while making them and they still help me feel at peace listening back. this is why i make & share music - i hope it does the same thing for you."

Passing it clockwise (08:32 - Ali Berger)

Let's Dance (Sublime Version)

trackland's ground series draws on the natural abundance of rhythmic permutations to contribute to the dance. like waves on the ocean, each track is a dynamic expression of something deep, stable and continuous. this is true of all our tracks but the illusion is thinner here...

these expressions occurred through the following instruments:
nava 909 clone
roland alpha juno 1
modified 303 clone

ground 1b

ground 1a

I made this track in 2013 as a combination of a bunch of things I was into at the time. I even had the concept for the art back then, it lived in my head until now... ten years later we give you Fax of Life!!

Everything must change... created around late 2015 after the first Sound Signature party I went to, this track transitions from peak time techno to an eternally just-in-time vocal meditation on life & change.
