One of my favourite records. Nice one Sam @billusmoon

Makes me miss dancing in the sand at Outro Lado, sun beating down, light breeze cooling your skin, crystal clear sounds pulsing over the dance floor.

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

Entering our minds through the rumbling of bass bins planted firmly on the ocean floor, Cousin’s deep earth rhythms span wide, from massage chair dubs on 7" to peak time dust burners echoing live under the stars. Summoning sounds from well below the surface and far beyond the ozone layer, we're treated here to a blissed out blend of atmospheric groovers inspired by the natural surrounds of the Moonshoe boss' daily commute.

Interview

MDC.274 Cousin

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

So here we are, another year coming to an end, leading into a summer that we’ve been waiting for, for over 3 years now. Usually, things start to wind down around this time of the year but it would seem that things are just as chaotic as usual. Transitioning through seasons used to be a breeze, though nowadays, not so much. 
Someone who has never had any issues with transitions is this episode's contributor; Naarm local, favourite, hero, champion, Jazz aka Jasmine Rose aka the slowed-time surgeon.

Watching/listening to Jazz evolve over the last few years has been nothing short of fascinating, comfortably traversing from strength to strength, like jumping on Lilly pads across a pond, creating a ripple effect with each launch and each landing. She’s one of the very few with a firm grip on sub 110bpm chug, the queen of the slow roast; The slow lane is a hard lane to drive in, but Jazz has her HR licence, allowing her to cruise down the princess freeway, driving a semi with both eyes closed. Personally, I've had some life-altering experiences dancing to Jazz on a big outdoor system, her hypnotic wizardry has transported me back to primitive times on more than a few occasions. She’s also no stranger to radio waves, she hosts an incredible show dubbed ‘spaces within space’ on Naarm’s own community radio station PBS, as well as another show ‘hanging with the birds’ on the ever-magical Skylab radio. Both shows do an amazing job at summarising the current narrative of the electronic music landscape. If you aren’t already listening to Jazz and her doings, then it’s not too late, and hopefully, this mix will answer any questions you might have. 

Let us discuss said mix, in a purely bias and one-way fashion. I’d say it's impossible to encapsulate Jazz’s depth in an hour and ten minutes, but alas, I am very happily wrong. This mix serves up a refined tasting of her ethos and leaves you wanting more, and luckily there’s plenty more (link below). Her control and understanding is on another level, bending the laws of physics itself without missing a single beat, turning BPM into a construct. Explorations in digital dub, drenched d’n’b, downtime sonatas, and dance floor digestives, she truly has put all of herself into this, and that's exactly why we started this silly little music series. Time for me to shut up and for Jazz to take over (press play). 

Stay dry, stay hungry. X

Very proud to have @whysufar on the 27th Selects. Part of the inimitable Translate crew of whom created some literal pillars of Eora/Sydney scene in the form of a sound system and who constantly impress with their events - Sufar has kindly shared this delicate, deep and bubbling warm up set for Donato Dozzy at the Strange Signals after party at a warehouse earlier this year. A beautiful trip of a mix that demonstrates Sufars strong knowledge of not only how the speakers work but what should be coming out of them..

Number twenty two is nostalgic trip to the beachside Outro Lado stage at Waking Life, by my friend Sam (@billusmoon). Sam is a talented local producer and DJ who has been involved in an array of events and musical leanings in Melbourne over the last few years. He is a co-creator of @lifeworld and just released a beautiful tune on the new @mindmap_music compilation. 
I've been a big fan of Sam's taste for a while. His Jazzy, minimal and sometimes idm-y style is always emotionally reminiscent of musical moments we experienced at Waking life <3 

Enjoy the beautifully selected sunny vibes. Thanks Sam!

Montreal-based DJ, producer and label owner Francis Latrielle, better known as Priori, joins us for the 79th edition of the Phonica Mix Series.

Priori has become a firm favourite of ours here at Phonica over the past couple of years. His releases, which crossover through many electronic genres, from house and techno to IDM and ambient, have been picked up by such labels as Echovolt and Dust E-1’s Dust World in recent years, although much of his musical output, including his phenomenal 2019 album, ‘On A Nimbus’, comes via his own label, NAFF, which he co-runs with fellow Montrealer Ex-Terrestrial.

Head on over to Off The Record to check out the full feature, including an interview, where we talked about his past, present, and future plans, life in lockdown, Montreal’s music scene, and more. Enjoy!
