Purelink have been described more than once as an "ambient boy band." (They themselves say "jam band.") It's not meant dismissively—the American trio purposefully mean to function as a band, even if their main instruments are laptops. Ambient might not quite cut it as a descriptor, though. The group's music crosses eras and scenes, touching on the late '90s clicks & cuts boom as well as the billowy ambient techno put out by labels like 3XL, West Mineral Ltd. and NAFF. 

Their most recent LP, Signs, released on enigmatic imprint Peak Oil (and one of our favourite albums of 2023), is especially impressive, made of stuttering rhythms and glassy textures. In other words, it's ambient-not-ambient. While members Concave Reflection, kindtree and Millia have all made excellent music on their own, something special happens when they come together.

Purelink's RA Podcast is another stellar contribution to our post-New Year's tradition, where we highlight a more laid-back sound to soothe weary minds and frazzled brain cells after the heavy holiday celebrations. This is 90-plus minutes of intricately textured downtempo, dub techno and even UK garage, all cut through with a floaty, almost drowsy quality, with plenty of exclusives and unreleased cuts from the likes of Nick León, James K, Downstairs J and more. It highlights Purelink's position as a bridger of worlds, sounds and tempos.

Location: Tio’tia:ke/Montreal 

About the Mix: 

This is a live recording of the last half of my four-hour opening set before Elena Colombi at Deep Rave, March 2025. The curation was really cool because Elena and I essentially split the peak time hours of the night and each took on the more free-form opening/closing edges of the journey. My intention for this stretch of the mix was to maintain a steady dancey groove, while occasionally spiralling into moments of enveloping chaos. I hope you can feel the strange yet inviting, sometimes overwhelming energy here… like the provocative smell of lilacs on a warm and humid late-spring night. 

About the DJ: 

Seoul-born and currently loving in Tio'tia:ke/Montreal, kiju is one of the core members of the Layer05 outdoor summer rave series and a dedicated member of the DIY community year-round.
