S/O TO EVERYONE WHO IS CONSTANTLY FIGHTING FOR SURVIVAL IN THEIR OWN WAY. ITS REALLY HARD WHEN IT FEELS LIKE THE BEST THAT CAN BE DONE IS SUSTAINING EXISTENCE IN ENDLESS CRISIS.  IN TIMES OF SUSTAINED CRISIS I WANT TO BE ON THE TEAM THAT SUPPORTS EACH OTHER THRU EXTERNALIZING OUR GRIEF AND RAGE. 

this has all to do with this mix but also ♪┏(・o･)┛♪┗ ( ･o･) ┓♪

BODY COUNT

I have been wanting to record another crisis mix for months & told myself I'd do it in between my summer tour and fall tour dates. I'm about to go back on tour tomorrow. I mixed this just tonight. I woke up today and knew. I put it off because I put most things off but I've also been a little stuck at “whats the point” since August. Since I started djing i've cared a lot about integrating middle eastern music and sound into my mixes and production. I opened up the first crisis mix with a maybe cheesy drop “fuck assimilation forever.” I cared a lot about things like visibility, preserving my culture. Now I think, Middle eastern people are already pretty integrated into racist, white U.S.A, I hate being so visible, and preserving a culture with a violent history and no current concept of solidarity is maybe dumb. I find my victimized mentality sometimes makes my own pain worse... I would like instead to think and act in ways that materially confront the ways I am complicit in the degradation of those I love. I want the crisis to end. I've never been a “music is just for fun” kind of person, but damn the way my mind has been moving its dead serious. I love and appreciate everyone who supports me and has expressed that they find/connect with something meaningful or moving about my work. Ultimately... I don't know shit.  ._. This has been part of my internal dialogue/struggle for years (“identity crisis” was 2 years ago) but I speak very selectively because I hate the way my words will be (re)contextualized, given way too much weight, and it comes out like a “complaint” irrelevant to my world of privilege. 

If there is no selfless use of music, at least it is a tool to aid thought/processing realities. I personally can't think straight in silence. Surviving this world leaves very little time for meditation, purposeful thoughtfulness, and thoughtlessness makes survival that much harder. Wtf.. But please try to work through the grief and guilt. & Turn the mix off if you think it's wack as hell.

The crisis mix series showcases east coast club music with traditional and contemporary middle eastern music.
