Grab the EP ➳ http://soulection.com/s033-lakim-thisisher

@LAKIM is releasing his first full-length album, 'This Is Her', February 25, 2014. 

See the premiere of the "Need Want" over on http://doandroidsdance.com/audio/lakim-need-want/

Multi-genre producer born and raised in Lynchburg, Virginia whose personal motto reads: “keep it simple”, is a part of the storied Soulection crew. Well known for his EP 'Esoteric', which dropped in summer 2012, the twentysomething year old has collaborations with other stellar artists like Sango and Mr. Carmack as well as various remixes of premium artists such as Erykah Badu, Kanye West, and Frank Ocean range from electronic chillwaved dance to spacey yet refined hip-hop. With a unique sound that seamlessly and effortlessly combines the perfect amount of bass, bounce and vocals, This Is Her becomes palatable to many.

The album has an overwhelming feminine vibe to it – light and airy, soft and beautiful. As LAKIM draws the soundscape for this project from some inspiring ladies in his life, the sounds come through as traits: calm & collected, sexy & sassy, grounded & driven, loving & unconditional.

“During the course of the year I probably spent making this, I met three woman that embodied some of these traits but not all of them. So, this is essentially me taking the best bits from each of them and creating in my mind a Bride of Franksteinesque ladyfriend and putting it into song form, lol...” - LAKIM

Carrie Sours (she/her)

Carrie Sours is a disc jockey, musician, and event host and organizer from Cleveland, OH currently living in Pittsburgh, PA. She is currently a crew member of the Sweet Abyss event series and a resident DJ at Mary’s. She began her record collection at age 4 and came of age in smoke-filled music shops; throughout the 2010s she became involved in Cleveland’s underground hip-hop and electronic music scenes including vanguard queer parties at infamous punk venue Now That’s Class. With a voracious and irreverent approach to genre, she describes her sound as “moody & funky”, fusing emotional and psychedelic dance music with sensual grooves, post-punk, and private press records with an approach born of the DIY, glamour-free creative environment of the Midwest. She loves listening to, playing, and discovering music; along with bakery, sauna, the sounds of birds, and silliness as a sanity play. Amongst other gigs, she has been the announcer of an ice-skating competition and recently soundtracked a lesbian arm-wrestling tournament.


5. A few sentences (or a small paragraph) about the mix Ex. Notes on the mix ///
"This mix has come out of a period of intense change in my life. I opened the mix with a song that used to enchant me when it played weekly as part of a local block on the “extreme” rock radio station when I was 12 or so, and I wanted to evoke a heavy through-line of catharsis, anger, confusion, yearning, pleasure and acceptance (with a tiny bit of cheekiness thrown in for good measure). Some drone for tone-setting (courtesy of my dear friend Ted aka Celestyn), a block of sensual grooves, a detour into psychy chuggers, and altogether a nice spread of sounds and genres for reflective listening. If you enjoyed the mix, drop a line - the personal connections are always meaningful and motivating! I happened to meet the XOXA crew during a sunrise at Barbarella’s Discotheque this past summer - I appreciate being able to contribute to the Blend Series, thanks for having me :) -Carrie"

q. pls introduce yourself:

a. Hi! I’m Ryan aka ghosttropics and I think most people on here know me as “that person who is in the comment boxes of all the ambient releases on bandcamp”. Mostly I’m just a huge music nerd/listener/dancer, but I try to write about the music that care about as much as I can as a way to engage with the community a bit more and to give back to the artists who bless me with the music that brings so much to my life. Which is how you guys found me! This is only the second mix I ever made and I’ve since worked on a couple more, and it’s becoming this very fulfilling new thing in my life that I look forward to exploring a bit more.

q. is there a story behind the mix?

a. First of all I just wanted to thank you guys for having me here and giving me this opporunity to work on this mix, which ended up being very meaningful and downright therapeutic for me to make. It is dedicated to my late best friend Blakely, and also to anyone who lives with that soul deep and unnameable feeling of missing someone, but also feeling them with you all the time. At the very centre of the mix (both figuratively and at the literal halfway point) is a track of Blakes that I hadn’t been able to bring myself to listen to for years. I always thought it was one of the most beautiful things I ever heard and just the purest audio distillation of everything I loved about my friend, and as soon as the mix started to come together I knew it was the right time to bring it back into my life. Everything from there just seemed to come together on is own as if guided by a gentle hand.

The feeling I tried to capture in this mix is not simply sadness because grief is SO much more than that. It’s about how that sadness can also be so deeply intertwined with a feeling of indescribable gratitude and joy in having known a person, and it’s about all the beautiful and unexpected ways we can keep them with us throughout our lives. To me, this mix is exactly that. A way to share the story of my friend with the world and feel closer to him, and I hope that listening to this can give others the space to remember and relate to their own experiences in a way that feels meaningful as well.

q. what’s the best way to enjoy your mix?

a. As is my answer to most things: lying down, eyes closed, cuddling a cute dog. But really, wherever works best for you! 

q. describe a favourite object in your living room...

a. I found the most beautiful/perfect antique rocking chair with a rocking footrest on the sidewalk a couple months ago and I swear I could not even conceptualize a better reading chair. I refused to buy one for years because I wanted it to be perfect (I read nearly as much as I listen to music) and part of me feels like I willed this thing into reality. 

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

a. I’m thinking about maybe starting some sort of newsletter as my friends keep telling me to do, but for now I’m just gonna keep writing my little bandcamp reviews and making more mixes, cause that’s what’s feeling good right now. And despite my past promise to myself to never become a DJ (half joking) maybe buy a controller and start figuring out how to do some of this stuff live at some point!
