In collaboration with our friends at Mostra (@mostrabcn), our latest mix highlights a personal favorite from the upcoming festival's roster. New York's Vicki Siolos (@vickisiolos) is an eminently thoughtful curator whose mindfulness shines through in her deliberate, insightful track selections and the programming of her Bright Patterns show on The Lot Radio. In fact Vicki and I have been discussing this particular contribution for over two years now, and through that conversation it became clear how deeply Vicki's artistic expression ties into her lived experiences and the process of meaningful reflection. Vicki's timely contribution speaks volumes and simple truths: a gasp, an ache, a salve.

Vicki will be joining Patrick Russell & Ulla from the US at the first edition of Mostra, a new small-format festival taking place April 11-17 in Barcelona. The lineup hosts more than a few friends & favorites of the label, and the festival promises an experience that is local, inclusive, and sustainable. More here: www.mostra.barcelona/eng

Sure Thing Mix 112: Vicki Siolos

One Hundred & Thirty Six presented by Melbourne / Naarm local RBI (@djrbii)who has an impressive breadth of styles under her belt. With a recent LP release on the iconic Australian label @buttersessions, she exploresdowntempo, ambient and full throttle, braindance-inspired dnb/jungle cuts in the eleven track release. Her music acts as an incredible showcase, almost, "soundtrack" like, music history & sub-genre exploration.

Here showcasing a delicate, unpredictable and charming mix, intelligently blending in a wide range of styles in with eloquent curatorial flair

Neon Cleptu 30

Uncaged perspective. For this episode I’d like to welcome Harold.
@djharoldd
 
Steeplejack messenger, steward of the Faultlines and key figure in the Naarm community finally delivers a abstractive and mercurial semblance of sounds that are closely knitted to each other. Shifting movements, sharp edge electronics that fractaling endlessly back and forth.

"An android bird beats its wings, 
synchronised with the changing light,
sparks and colour.
It’s easier to turn to static, become noise or suffer”

I’m very pleased that he participated and will be the one to guide us through his musical fascinations.

The Naarm based artist takes us on an extended 3 hour journey through lush ambient textures, mellow downtempo and ethereal half time.

The intention of this mix is to guide one down the path of introspection and exploration. This mix fluctuates between slow moving pieces and more club-centric sounds all in an effort to play around with what sounds we tend to deem as “meditative.” Some find zen alone in their bedroom, some find it surrounded by bodies on the dancefloor - I hope to balance these journeys as this mix moves between slow and fast, gentle and experimental, light and dark.

I moved to Naarm/Melbourne earlier this year and it has made me realise how unbelievably lucky I am to live here in “Australia”. From the natural landscapes of this country to the amount of gifted homies I come in contact with almost everyday, I’m in a constant state of awe. Artists like Zara, OK EG, Tangerine & Gi have me bursting at the seams with excitement for the sounds coming out of this place.

Take Care was created in 2022, birthed from my new found love for gentle ambient/downtempo. A meditative mix (and later turned event) series focused around self and community care. It was made to be a sort of ‘digital destination’, a one-stop-shop of ambient soundscapes to help find stillness, cultivate growth and realign with what it means to be alive.

One that takes the cake right now would have to be a two day party called Absorbed. The line up was majority local/Aus talent and incredibly diverse in sound - yet it all flowed beautifully! From live acts to djs to bands, oh man I just had the best time!

This may be a bit clique, but my favourite experience so far would be NYE of 2023 at a dear homies house party. It was open decks and my friend Rilie and I ended up getting on and just playing the most ridiculous throwbacks, while our friend Rob got people to sing along on a mic we found. I started DJ’ing as a means to have fun with my homies and at that moment, it all came together in a beautiful celebration.

Recorded live at Miscellania as part of Absorbed III. My first gig in a few years and a very special one. Amazing crowd, massive vibes. Humbled to be included in such a great lineup. Clem, Sasha and Kavil - hats off to you for putting on such a killer party and thanks for having me!
