this installment features our dear friend, ariana gray bé (@agraybe) 💜

we invited her not only because she's a master selector, but also because we've also spent many nights cooking together, lamenting over environmental racism and reimagining a more sustainable life. ari had a hand in both auditory and gustatory portions of this installment, during which we had a grand time putting our heads together to make magic. thank you ari!

please enjoy her contemplations & delve into au(o)ral pleasure~

.:::

this mix is the sensorial result of the following:

“stone, soil, passion, symbiosis”

imagine what earth’s subsurface might sound like.

sink under ground with me for this mix.
engulf in soil, slithering insects, rocks and debris.
weave through tangling roots, cross through strata.

imagine now the work of humans in here.
pipes bisect an intricate network of roots.
soil replaced with concrete. ecosystems expunged.

the word, symbiosis, brings up pessimism in this context.

drilling, uprooting. depleting, consuming.
devouring more and more.

humankind (as it exists today) is earth’s parasite.

can humanity remedy it's relationship with earth before deeply disturbing everything in it’s path?

Darone Sassounian is on a never-ending search for fresh sounds. Pulling records from his collection and from recent diggings, he aspires to share music that moves him each month here on dublab.

On today’s edition of the show, Darone invites Thomas Cox. 

Thomas Cox used to be a DJ of the music formerly known as house. Now he just plays records he likes in any style for his Next Wave show on Mutant Radio Tbilisi and produces music for his own DIY vinyl only label QED Recordings. 

This mix is perfect for relaxing on the beach at the South Pole of Enceladus while smoking a big one. An exquisite selection of music concrete, ambient, drone, avant-garde, experimental, synth, and soundtracks that will help the moss on your brain grow nice and dense. All vinyl recorded in one take. 

Thomas’s advice for you is this: buy more records and give fewer f**ks.
