Abstract without Abstraction Mix Series 005

AW/OA 005: Mixed by Goreteks

This week we continue a streak of special guest mixes with @KIERNAN-LAVEAUX, 1/3 of one of Cleveland's premiere queer electronic parties, @IN-TRAINING.

It being pride month, and the beginning of summer here in Denver, this one is dedicated to to everyone: prideful or not, closeted or out; and especially those unable to celebrate because of the political regimes they live within. For the next two hours, live from last month's @IN-TRAINING, it's the soundtrack to intense release & self-love for all of the trans femmes like her. Here's to turning the suffering into celebration.

Opening set, recorded live at In Training May, 2017.

Abstract without Abstraction Mix Series 006

AW/OA 006: Mixed by Kiernan Laveaux

"A continuum of music of the cosmos resting in a momentary position of influence ... there is no beginning there is no end no side one no side two” - Douglas Leedy, Electric Zodiac

This week, we return with a flagship statement on Abstract without Abstraction – an all-vinyl mix from AW/OA organizer, Entrancer (@thug-entrancer). Jumping off inspired by the Douglas Leedy quote above, the mix traverses fragments from the spectrum of electronic musics, mapping the peaceful times, the restless times, the tension, and exploration that comes with the territory of raising a child; searching out the in-betweens, absolutes, and complete mysteries that constitute fatherhood.

Abstract without Abstraction Mix Series 012

AW/OA 012: feat. the Not Art Records showcase [mixed by Blank For]

Turning over the leaf of the new year, Abstract without Abstraction is honored to present its first guest mix of the 2018, presented by @dj_leesh! Leesh, also known as Alicia Greco, is a writer, DJ and organizer originally hailing from Buffalo, NY, one of the newest members of Chicago's NBFC (Naughty Bad Fun Collective), and the driving force behind a number of platforms charting the pathways and affinities of underground house & techno in North America and celebrating intersectionality in dance music: @enterthesequencer & the newly launched @daisychain_podcast podcast. 

In her all-vinyl debut mix, Leesh takes us directly into the hypnagogic, ecstatic heart of the drum. We couldn't imagine a better way to enter the year of the dog- that is- the year of companionship. It is the companionship that Leesh embodies with the metaphor of the Daisychain- connecting up circuitry, identities, struggles, and livelihoods to form a symbiotic network of female-id, trans, cis women, and nonbinary folks from all backgrounds, both within and beyond our defined queer communities. Stop, and listen deeper.

AW/OA 015: Bloom Offering

Lychee (@lycheefrut) is the creative force behind Spontaneous Affinity (@spontaneousaffinity), a freeform platform focusing on the support and elevation of those connected with the communal nature of the dancefloor. As a DJ, their monthly residency at Distrikt 1 at Bossa Nova Civic Club in Brooklyn focuses on the harder and darker edges of techno, so it is a real pleasure to hear them round a corner for Abstract without Abstraction with a special two-hour long ambient mix. While the world approaches the summer solstice this week, let them calibrate the atmospherics of your pure sensation.

Abstract without Abstraction Mix Series 017

AW/OA 017: Vera Rubin

What better way to embrace the summer than with an hour of baile funk, cumbia, Afro-Colombian music, and latinx electronica selected by the world-traveller, dj, radio host, and middle-school math teacher, @busy_signals (aka Katherine Peterson)? A sonography of her travels, ¡Suda! is a blast & a personal selection of tracks that cut an imaginary course, or hopscotch, though the sounds of Latin American. While so many may be riveted by the machinations of eyeball-transfixing FIFA-colonialism this weekend, the sound is a testament to the other worlds that are here with us to celebrate. 

Tune into Katherine's show ¡Corriente! at http://www.afterfm.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/shows.byDJ/djID/442/djName/Katherine and follow her on Mixcloud at https://www.mixcloud.com/busy_signals/ & Twitter @busy_signals

Abstract without Abstraction Mix Series 018

AW/OA 018: ¡Suda! [mixed by Katherine Peterson]

Cresting out of the potent core of a fully-eclipsed blood moon, Abstract without Abstraction is energized to present what feels like a truly break-out mix from the up-and-coming NYC-based DJ, Starka. Containing some of the most urgent genre-fucking club sounds that have been featured in the series, Starka’s contribution “Systemic Disaffection” channels the raw, celebratory energy of the packed club, but does so while simultaneously carving out sonic pockets to embrace and care for the dysphoria and trauma that unavoidably rack our fleshly dimensions. A clarion call to find each other, to lift each other up, and dance with each other, you can discover more of Starka at @starkamusic & https://www.instagram.com/andreas_starc/

From them directly: "I've been thinking a lot about politics and music, both separately and together, throughout this year. Initially, I wanted this mix to be explicitly political by including talk about past and current inequity, but it ended up sounding pretty corny. I'd like to include spoken bits in some future sets and production, but this mix ended up being more of a dip into some dancey sounds I've associated with dystopia and the struggle towards utopia."

Abstract without Abstraction Mix Series 019

AW/OA 019: Systemic Disaffection [mixed by Starka]

Beginning again, with new ears, informed by everything they've heard, Abstract without Abstraction is honored to present a cinematic, lusciously mixed, contribution from Taylor Bratches, aka Talien. When Talien @talienmusic found dance music nearly a decade ago, she knew she was home. A dancer since the age of four and a former music journalist, her passion for movement and her obsession with music has propelled her to seek community on dance floors in cities all over the globe.  

For Talien, DJing is a personal, political and spiritual act—a way to express, to channel frequencies, to unite people, and to give to others the kinds of formative dance-floor experiences that were given to her. Propelled by this sentiment, she became an active participant of Walking and Falling, the Chicago-based mentorship program for female-identifying and non-binary DJs, and currently runs their podcast series at @walkingandfalling. In line with the Walking and Falling vision, she seeks to provide women and nonbinary DJs with an alternate route for exposure, visibility and community.  She is also affiliated with the LA-based female DJ collective Xenophile Collective.  Interested in working with a range of dance music genres, her goal is to create dynamic sonic landscapes that are both terrestrial and otherworldly.  She is also a writer, and currently is writing a book about her relationship to dance and dance music.
