"This was the first mix I’ve been asked to record that I actually followed through with! I wanted to explore the idea of Spontaneous Affinity in a non-club context.

There’s a particular headspace that particular songs sometimes pull me into - it’s a distinct feeling, a hint of walking through a dreamworld where everything is moving in slow motion. It’s wonderful in overcrowded public spaces, on aimless walks, on cold mornings, after a bad day at work…

I’ve tried to pick songs that pull that feeling out in me, and recreate it in a mix, while drawing a narrative through my influences and favourites that can’t be showcased on a dancefloor. I’ve been feeling pretty tender lately, and this mix is informed by me exploring these feelings of fragility.

I recorded the mix at home, on two XDJ700s, two 1200s and a Xone:23 mixer."

Interview

Spontaneous Affinity #010: Anuraag

A monthly undefined Friday flexx on club-not-club in Toni Yotzi's House of Sports. New releases with a hint of old spice. Joined by friends who inspire.

House Of Sports - Skylab Radio 2.11.18

Anuraag
As part of the Cool Room collective, Raag has been behind some of the best dance parties, panel talks and live music explorations in Melbourne. A highly diverse and inspirational selector, they have a deep connection to artists and scenes across the world. Pushing anything from intriguing bass and dancehall, unhinged footwork and ambient, I was also recently blown away at their perfect deep, rhythmic and textural warm up for DJ Sprinkles at the RA 24/7 party.

But please enjoy this fast paced work out in part 2 of the show. ^___^

House Of Sports Pt. 2 w. Anuraag - Skylab Radio 2.11.18

All the mesh had long been ripped off of the cage booth and been made into makeshift outfits at Revolver Upstairs by the time the Cool Room crew took to the decks, keeping the room dancing and ready for DJ Sprinkles to close.

RA Live - 24.11.2018 - Cool Room at twenty four/seven Melbourne

"This event will be the first of a longform concert series, celebrating the existence of freeform and fluid music. Featuring some of Melbourne’s most vibrant musical voices, we will be starting at sunset and going until sunrise. "

Live at Deep Water Greenhouse

"Can background music animate us, rather than sedate us? 
Can sound teach us to hold two contrasting feelings in balance?
How deep is the power of imagination?
