Happy full Wolf moon in Cancer friends.  ❤ ❤ ❤
I’ve posted a collection of music that is very special to me to coincide with this auspicious occasion.  

It’s been such a year of grief and loss for many of us. Death has come closer to me than ever before.  I’ve been deeply affected by the passing of some dearly beloved beings and continue to attempt to come to terms with the understanding that we will all eventually have to say goodbye to one another.  

I’ve called this set Key To A Memory. it’s about grieving and remembering and the marks we make on each other. The things that remind us of what is gone.  It’s about the intricate tapestry our lives weave together. It’s about the bitterness of accepting loss. It’s about the release of letting go.  It’s about cherishing the time we’ve been given and returning to gratitude.  Embracing death and celebrating life. 

Compiled and arranged in the deep winter months on the Sunshine Coast in BC. the dark and gloom are palpable. Though i hear a hint of spring in there at times as well. like seeds buried in the snow dreaming of the sun.


I know I take myself pretty seriously sometimes. It is just a DJ mix after all haha. Yet these songs mean a lot to me and the feelings they convey help me move through these moments with all the grace I can.  I hope that you will enjoy.  LOVE ALWAYS 


Xx dee

Key To A Memory

KEY TO A MEMORY

“Love Serve Remember: Reimagined,” is a unique collection of new Ram Dass songs and musical renderings. Out today, these tracks collectively celebrate the 50th anniversary of an expansive collection of Ram Dass radio conversations, readings, and music that first took form as the six-LP box set, Love Serve Remember, in 1973.

Liquid Bloom’s “Opening Reimagined” features Moondrop alongside Evan Fraser, and the other tracks were woven by the The Human Experience and John Pattern. 

This album is also available as a vinyl for those of you who want to add this special gem to your collection.

413. Sleepy Sunday Podcast (Elm Records)

Experimental cinema sonics, electroacoustic research practice and shadowy wind instruments come together to form this unique interpretation of the mythical city of gold. Utilising rare, half forgotten Soviet era synthesisers Vladimir Karpov creates immersive soundscapes under the name XYR. The Formanta mini keytar and the Alisa 1377 lend Karpov’s music strange, seldom heard atmospheres which the St. Petersburg native then combines with field recordings, toy percussion and wood flute to further build upon his utopian narratives.

Part concept album, part nod to Popol Vuh, his attempt to channel the thematics of the ancient tale of the Muisca people through his modest home studio left a lasting impression on us here at 12th Isle and we’re proud to present a selection of the tracks on vinyl for the very first time. Originally confined to just 25 cassette tapes, for this edition we have assembled some of the most inspiring tracks from the sessions as well as the bonus closing piece ‘Aguirre Song’. Immediately engaging, sincerely heartfelt and strikingly original, these are recordings we have returned to time and time again.

Limited edition LP comes housed in screenprinted sleeve. ‘El Dorado’ recorded April – August 2014, originally released via Illuminated Paths (March 2015).
