can't wait to listen to this one very nicely curated

I LOVE THIS. Also the link and shared ethos between punk & dance music is so important <3

Gi Gi in the mix for volume 79 with an hour of gliding, icey, rhythmic structures. He's been releasing some great music over the past few years and his mixes are always a treat. He's also got some exquisite tunes landing next year ~ keep an eye out! Thanks Gi Gi <3

"For this mix, I wanted to try something a little bit out of my comfort zone. Instead of a dance mix I went with the downtempo & trip hop sounds I've been inspired by as of late."
Milla's group project, Purelink, just released their debut full length "Puredub" via Chicago's Lillerne Tapes, the outfit's take on ambient, dub, downtempo grooves, and more.

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Ello, I’m Jackson. Pronouns are He/Him. Residing in Eora/Sydney

Who/what currently inspires you music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

Water and light mostly 

What is your favorite party/collective where you reside and why?

Too many faves. Some heavy hitters off the top are Umami/Echo Flats/Heavenly/Community Chest. They are %100 in it for the experience. Community Chest is a joint force crew of about 7 great crews from Sydney – It’s kinda like when the power rangers come together to make that big robot fighter guy

What was your best moment at the supermarket?

They were playing Bill Withers in a Woollies once and it got me

What is your most recent favorite DJ mix and why?

Max D – Indie Rock on C- was maybe the last one that got me good. Max D only plays by Max D’s rules

Any advice to upcoming DJs/producers? 

Enjoy your life & be kind to others

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

More love and respect, always

So so happy to have Naarm's https://soundcloud.com/mgmldrm on the series!! 

miscmeg's sensitive take on electronic music just hits. the. spot. Having made a name for herself as a versatile selector, as suited to a club setting and those moments of total energetic release, as periods of reflection and stillness. It's the latter she has compiled in this mix, originally recorded at Hope St Radio in Naarm.

One of the founders of https://soundcloud.com/vortexvortexvortex and its associated skylab show, miscmeg is a major contributor to Naarm's scene, effortlessly adding an essential dimension, rooted in emotional dance music. 

With a 90s flavour, this mix meanders through sugarcoated, glistening downtempo, occasionally plunging into destabilising slow burns. miscmeg's ear for downtempo is on full show here, pausing for darker, dub-inflicted haziness and moments of melancholy before erupting shining light, love and red-hot desire. 

miscmeg, with what seems like a knowing wink, sprinkles breadcrumbs for us to follow, each moment a fragile, expanding, crystallising and, soon, razor sharp declaration of self-worth. She's a pro and we can't thank her enough : --)

Emotions are high, may require a dance in your kitchen ⚘ ❁ ⚘ ❁ ⚘

https://soundcloud.com/keyfell (https://www.instagram.com/_______________________key/) is a creator in every sense. A limitlessly talented producer, sound designer, visual artist and a profound, gentle soul, key is one of one. 

Having delicately spread their roots on Ngunnawal/Ngambri soil, their slow and deliberate unfurling has been a privilege to witness. 

Among their wonderous talents is their sense for their surroundings. In their productions and mixes, this capacity for observation, intrigue, and often melancholic reflection pulses to the surface. It bubbles and pops, cracks, grinds, slides, slows and ebbs. Their awareness peaks in high frequency raptures, always balanced atop soft, sustaining lows. key is tapped in. Their music is a portal transmuting the unseen felt to the heard.

Their live sets are legendary in Ngnunnawal/Ngambri country. They’re a DJ, musician, singer, dancer, performer. They’re everything. They’re one half of the event series Portal, which has built a tender reputation for its emphasis on emotion and connection. Conscientious set design and care at every stage of preparation has led to moments of intense emotional release and sharing. (https://www.instagram.com/portal.obj/)

This mix is much the same. Textures are always in contrast, stretching and softening at the edges, creating room to breathe. Each moment is an energising breath in or a sigh, soaked in pleasure and recognition. key erects a glowing, vine-drenched bridge to better worlds, floating on sensitivity and love, at every moment.

Juanita's Mix 091: Millia

Have you ever wondered what the Melbourne music scene was like in the 1970s and '80s? Or what it was like to live in Melbourne's inner north in that era? 

Our next guests on 𝒃𝒍𝒆𝒖𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 are Mick Earls and Stuart Grant from the band Use No Hooks, a Melbourne post-punk band prominent in the Little Bands scene of the late '70s and early '80s. In those years, Mick and Stuart lived in dirt cheap share houses and shop fronts in Melbourne's inner northern suburbs, making music and partying around the clock. The shop fronts on Brunswick Street were boarded up and Gertrude Street was a no go area; a world away from the cafe and boutique lined streets that exist there today. "It's impossible to imagine that world even existed," says Mick. 

Playing at local institutions like the Tote, no one knew what to expect when Use No Hooks took to the stage over 40 years ago. Drawing inspiration and influences from many sources, Use No Hooks’ music was always unpredictable because of their relentless experimentation and frequent line-up changes.  On stage, the band's approach embraced elements of fluxus (little known to them at the time) and their numbers varied from three to ten band members.

Inspired by punk bands of the '70s, disco icons like Nile Rogers, and rap legends like Grandmaster Flash, their music is a harmonious crossover of all these genres, creating something truly unique. Lost and forgotten for many years, their recordings were dug up a few years ago and released on vinyl for the first time on local label @chaptermusic.
