Animix

To guide us through the next simulated experience; Passing Notes Radio boss and 1/2 of the great new label ‘Companion', Pjenné [Melbourne, AUS], shows us what a utopian existence can sound, feel and look like.

Follow on as she glides through the stratosphere, looking down on the lush greenery and crystal water that our earth effortlessly inhabits... occasionally looking up into the vast display of distant stars and planets, glittering across the stillness of outer space.

Pjenné beautifully illustrates the phenomenology of nature through tracks which touch on each element, whether that be the ethereality of air, the intricacy of water, the depth of earth, or just the pure warmth flowing through this immaculately thought-out audible narrative.

We couldn’t help but think this would be the perfect soundtrack for the day peace on earth is declared, where humanity sits back and appreciates a new world— where collectively, we love what grows, exists and dies.

This small blue dot is our home… our balanced oasis in the desert of space. Perhaps we need the ability to fly to see a different perspective - and we’re sure this will help.

Close your eyes and drift into your own self.

Enjoy, and thankyou Pjenné

Naarm's https://soundcloud.com/billusmoon wields a genuinely impressive narrative craft. 

Their recent productions, on Animalia and soon on Pollinate, cement billus as the chillest of the ill. Jazzy, flowy, layered and organic, their detailed ear for swirling percussion nestles between the human and generated. Look out for the full release on Pollinate on May 25: https://pollinate.bandcamp.com/album/dust-in-bloom. 

Their mixes often navigate fragile territory and never fail to ground me in their overwhelming positivity and sensitive nudge towards brightness and joy. Often they'll wind through lofted moments of bewilderment, plunge earthward, before settling, gently, in a glowing appreciation for whimsy. 

However, for this mix and in their words - and much more aptly put - they just wanted to jam a bunch of chill into it. 

In the haze of a billus-induced kick-back, you may retreat into yourself and emerge - sometimes soft-skinned and sensitive - but with bright eyes. This one is no different, with a tilt towards warmth and reflection, conceived in the afterglow of the recent Worm Turns festival.

Heath is the co-founder of my favourite party in Melbourne, @syrupmelbourne, alongside Chaz. 

As long as i've known Heath, he's always had the best music taste. This mix is a perfect slice of his always interesting and perfectly crafted sets. An hour of downtempo selections that reflect Heath's classy style and cool collection....He knows what's up!

This is a very special one. Here I host a mix by someone very close to home.. I’ve been begging him to make a mix for this series for ages, but he’s even more of a perfectionist than i am.  Clearly the wait has paid off!

I’m always astonished by sam’s humble talent. His artist name, ‘nino’ is an endearing homage to our beloved grandfather Nino, as well as our Croatian roots. Nino was an architect for decades. Sam’s own architectural talent lies in his creative ear...shining through in this unique, and magically woven musical journey :) enjoy !
