We've been tuning into to Harold's mixes for just under a year now, so were buzzing when this hour and a half madness popped up in our inbox. 

Harold runs Australian label and mix series Steeplejack. After a string of wicked releases, Steeplejack recently announced their debut LP, put together by Glome. 'Popular Moments For You And I' will be released later this month and we highly recommend you check it out.

This mix is a trip, we're not going to try and describe it, reckon hit play and you'll enjoy....

People & Places 028: Harold

If you've been a livestream regular, you'll almost certainly recognize @boxofbox as the chatroom participant with the encyclopedic memory for track IDs. With a meticulous methodology for seeking out and organizing tracks, this Durham, North Carolina-based DJ and bioengineer brings a taste for the sweaty and psychedelic to the decks. His mix for Spontaneous Affinity is an emotive listen, traversing everything from the euphoric to the pensive.

"Given that we’re entering month 9 of the Covid19 pandemic in the US, I wanted to snapshot how it feels for me to be playing/experiencing music at this moment. The goal here was to make a deliberately eclectic mix representative of my moods lately: hopeful, unsettled, wistful, a bit dark, dreaming, playful, melancholic, erratic, with some fleeting moments of tenderness and euphoria.

I went through several folders of stuff I’ve been itching to play, including some recent acquisitions, and landed on the Glacci, the Barker, and the Dadub/Retina.it tracks as the primary ones that would guidepost the flow of the mix. I knew I wanted to have the Barker track near the end, because it's got this sweetness yet it's still kind of thoughtful and longing–a nice, complex mood to leave a listener with during a lockdown.

From there I started seeding a playlist and loosely sorting by 'energy' to connect the feel of the three tracks in a form that I hope is interesting for y'all. I recorded the mix live into Logic via a Xone:96 using 3 XDJ-1000Mk2's and an Eventide H9 (this time just for a little reverb)."

Interview + Tracklist

Spontaneous Affinity #029: boxofbox

This week’s Rhythmic Culture podcast is all about deep grooves and pumping rhythms, as Melbourne’s Toni Yotzi is in charge of what’s happening for 66 minutes. Toni has played a crucial role in developing Perth into a thriving club metropolis, programming Deep Doogs’ sunrise rave, co-hosting Full Frequency on RTR FM and presenting parties for Kenji Takimi, Bell Towers and DJ Nozaki. Now based in Melbourne, she’s established herself as one of the most open minded DJs on the local circuit, immortalised by a legendary Inner Varnika and Golden Plains set's that saw her fearlessly transition from Jon Hassell to italo disco, memphis rap and Bristol bass and UK techno.

In her mix she’s features mostly Australian artists and labels. Feast your ears with cuts from Pugilist, LOIF, Coldpast, Hed Ardennes and many more.
