Dekad & Foretaste " Robots Will Never Let You Down"

I made this mix for my radio show, Mechanical Breakdown on KEXP. I created this mix as a celebration of Skinny Puppy and the band announcing their final tour and this mix aired on Monday, May 8th, 2023. Skinny Puppy played in Seattle the following day at the Paramount Theater.

This is not everything. SP has a HUGE catalog and at the time, I was only working with an hour show. This is the mix I created out of love for one of the most influential bands in industrial music.

Skinny Puppy Appreciation Mix on Mechanical Breakdown on KEXP

Från Black Lives Matter, Land Back och Jewish Voice for Peace i USA till Fridays for future i Sverige kommer den internationella solidariteten och stödet till Palestina, mot Israels folkfördrivning, folkmord och apartheid. Helena Hägglund har skrivit om hur Palestinafrågan nu enar proteströrelserna i USA. Är det en ny internationell solidaritetsrörelse vi ser födas och vad har den för historiska rötter bakåt? Hur hänger den nya solidaritetsrörelsen samman med ett dekolonialt perspektiv?  Och varför växer fredsprotesterna helt utanför de parlamentariska partierna?

Dekolonial solidaritet

The 1970s is often depicted straightforwardly as the moment when the radical movements of the 1960s fractured, failed, and radicalised in ways that were self-destructive. In The Subversive Seventies Michael Hardt argues that not only is that a much too simplistic understanding of the decade, but that it serves to prevent us from drawing important lessons and inspiration from the radical movements of the 1970s. We talked about popular misconceptions about the movements of the 70s, how to understand the turn towards projects characterised by autonomy and in some cases armed struggle. And finally we also talked about why the emergence in the 70s of a multiplicity of struggles can be seen as a source of strength for the left, rather than evidence of irresolvable division.

The seventies and us w/ Michael Hardt

Den första föreläsningen i en serie samtal om vårt behov av utopier och bristen på utopiskt tänkande och fantasi i dagens samhälle.

Medverkar gör skribenterna och debattörerna:
Roland Paulsen - författare och sociolog
Nina Björk - författare och litteraturvetare
Mathias Wåg - journalist, medlem av Brands redaktion och driver podden Apans anatomi

Modererar gör Ann Ighe - ekonomisk historiker och genusforskare


Vad drömmer vi om? Vilken värld önskar vi? Har vänstern ett behov av utopiska visioner? Socialister anklagas ömsom för att vara naiva idealister med orealistiska drömmar om ett mer rättvist samhälle, ömsom för att vara eviga gnällspikar som är bättre på att klaga över sakers förfall än på att formulera alternativa samhällsvisioner - detta i en tid av pågående klimatkris och galopperande ojämlikhet där torftig realpolitik frodas. Kanske är det just när det politiska mörkret ligger som tätast som behovet av utopier är som störst?

Det är dags att vakna från den kapitalistiska realismen och väcka den politiska fantasin till liv!

Samtalet genomfördes inför publik på ett fullsatt Teater Tribunalen i Stockholm den 9 april 2024 och arrangerades av Centrum för marxistiska samhällsstudier tillsammans med nätverket transform! europe.

Varför behöver vi utopier?

Israeli universities have long enjoyed a reputation as liberal bastions of freedom and democracy and they enjoy warm relationships with their counterparts in north America and Europe - including the University of Columbia. However, as Maya Wind explains in today's episode, contrary to the depiction of Israeli universities as centres of pluralism and free inquiry these institutions are directly complicit in the project to dispossess Palestinians of their land and rights.

In her new book, Towers of Ivory and Steel: How Israeli Universities Deny Palestinian Freedom. Maya reveals how academic disciplines, degree programs, campus infrastructure, and research laboratories all service Israeli occupation and apartheid, while universities violate the rights of Palestinians to education, stifle critical scholarship, and violently repress student dissent.

This podcast is an introduction to Walter Benjamin's "Theses on the Concept of History." It surveys some of the key concepts deployed by Benjamin in this text and provides an overview of the historical context. Underpinning theories from Marxism and Jewish Messianism are unpacked for non-experts. 

With the exception of a Satie piece, Berlioz's version of La Marseillaise and various versions of the Internationale, the soundtrack is all original compositions. 

Walter Benjamin's Theses on the Concept of History

We discovered Massimiliano Pagliara ten years ago with his slow and sexy number "Sometimes At Night", featuring Molly Nilsson's gorgeous vocals, released on "Live At Robert Johnson".
Since then, the italian dj/producer based in Berlin unleashed an impressive array of records on Rush Hour, Ostgut Ton, Cocktail D' Amore, Correspondant or Uncanny Valley. 
Massimiliano's idea here was to start a new series of mixes under the name "Love, Sex, Dreams", not being necessarily club music.
Rather slow, leftfield, balearic, ambient, b-sides.
Something very chill, mostly like a compilation of cute tracks.
We're glad to receive the first journey, enjoy !
