Guest Mixes

“No rules and getting to pull weird, chilled out records is what our White Light mix is all about. Both sides are all vinyl and full of lush vibes. Typically we record to tape, but for White Light we wanted more runway to take advantage of the free format, so we ripped each side in one take to a digital recorder. Which means you’ll still hear the cracks and pops and mistakes… and we wouldn’t have it any other way.” - Cosmic Crates (USA)

About the White Light Mix Series:
The White Light mixes are, ultimately, about two things: music and space. Music first and foremost, as this series is a showcase of great songs, not tracks – songs and mixes you want to listen over and over again, songs that have depth and staying power, and most importantly songs that mean something to each other.

Secondly, White Light is about space – giving the music room to breathe – not a post-a.d.d. mix of everything trendy that can fit onto a mixtape, but one that’s paced to give each tune its shine, where the music is the focus and the mixing is an effortless complement. Over time I’m sure the criteria will change here and there, but White Light will always be about night driving, introspection and taking the time to listen from start to finish – remember to always look into the light . . .
