WHERE DID YOU VISUALISE YOURSELF WHEN PUTTING THIS MIX TOGETHER?
Wandering a vast alpine valley in the Southern Alps, beech leaves on the track, golden tussock on the flats, grey rocks in the river, and glaciers looming at the head of the valley.

FAVOURITE PARK BEVERAGE?
A well made dry heritage cider that doesn’t mind getting a little warm with some slow sipping.

SUMMER 23/24 ALBUM/JAM?
I just came across 2020's Flux and Contemplation by Simon Posford which is now in regular rotation for calming my mind. Not a jam per se, but a real absorbing journey.

SANDALS OR JANDALS?
Sandals for now, but when they finally lose contain, maybe jandals.

ANYTHING ELSE TO ADD?
This mix ended up with a bittersweet melancholia about it. It feels like saying goodbye to a dear friend who’s going away for a long time.

@christopherlombardo hails from Ft Lauderdale, United States, and is a creative genius when it comes to marrying high-quality beat sequencing with incredibly innovative braindance, IDM, and glitch adjacencies live on tap. Here, this genius is yet again realised in an exclusive live performance especially made for FOAD, and we couldn’t be more privileged and honored with the result.

He first came onto our radar when FOAD co-founder de.index discovered him by chance at Bang Face festival 2022, at 1 pm on a Friday, absolutely slaying away similar kinds of choppage and changeage that you’re experiencing here (and you can listen to this set on his SoundCloud; https://soundcloud.com/christopherlombardo/bangface-2022-set).

Infinite blessings to him for putting in the work and surprising us (somehow) with such an incredible artifact of music. No fucking about, this is the real deal. Prepare to have your very essence recalibrated, modulated, and reconstructed in this near-hour time-lapse of sonic-controlled chaos…

Wow what a night! I played the late slot and brought a mix of old, recent and brand new breakbeat inspired vibes with some curveballs thrown in for good measure.

You can hear the 🚨 Dub Siren 🚨 throughout the mix that was setup on the side of the dance floor and some of the more observant among the crowd had the chance to give it a nudge from time to time.

During 'Wave Form', Aurélien Arbet and Pierre Rousseau explore an interpolation of various recordings, often at the margins of traditional formats and conventional styles of music. During an hour, a long oscillation is formed out of a selection of interviews, spoken word, poetry, music for dance or art, marginal pop attempts and various field recordings.

Aurélien Arbet is an art director, co-founder of the clothing brand and publishing house Études. Pierre Rousseau is a composer, producer and sound designer, crafting sounds for records, films, and art projects.
