Welcome Noise In My Head to the BSRMIX!

Blessed to have our studio neighbour and long time pal Michael Kucyk finally serve up an audio offering. With a deep and long dedication to the world of left leaning music, the Efficient Space boss and veteran radio host (3RRR, NTS etc) has been a constant source of inspiration and discovery for ourselves and many more.

BSRMIX #127 - Noise In My Head

I got to know Laurel (@silver-side-pony) via the growing bin website. Always loved their picks from the bin and so I got curious. Then I heard one of Laurels mixes and was sold. I am superhappy to share this almost 4 hour long sandwich with you... now handing over the keyboard. 
"Laurel hails from the rural North Island (Te Ika-a-Māui) of Aotearoa, New Zealand. They enjoyed a few years observing Pōneke (Wellington)’s rambunctious and delightfully strange music scene at venues like Puppies and the revered Camp a Low Hum, before moving to Berlin.
This mix is the result of many quiet lockdown nights trawling bandcamp, deep dives into the (Growing) Bin, and excavating their record collection. Winding in and out of new music and old gems over 3.5 hours, the mix reflects their unease and excitement of heading back to parties after a long break. Laurel made sure to include some old well-trodden favourites, doing a big middle finger to the pressure to play new and “rare” tracks at every single outing.
Big shout outs go to Eyeliner (@disasterradio), Tania (@taniajust), Castro & Nemo (@sound-metaphors), Cáit (@caitfa), and Stella (@stella-zekri-ouiddir) for inspiration." 
Thanks a TON for this yummy mix Laurel!!

Delighted to host Brandon Hocura Influence mix on Oddity Radio for @seance-centre.

Brandon Hocura : Thinking back to my formative musical experiences brought back places, moods, and memories, mostly from my late teens and early twenties. For the mix, I wanted to connect those salad days with my long-term interests; basically I chose some foundational favorites and filled the spaces between them with sonic portals, linking then and now in my mind.

Turn on, tune in and don't drop out!

Brandon Hocura - Oddity Influence Mix

just-us records is a collaborative dig, online shop, and sometimes record label by Bill Spencer, who lives in detroit and Izaak, who lives in San Francisco. the two of them dj frequently in their respective cities and occasionally elsewhere. their mutual obsession with and love of all kids of sound has catapulted them, together, through the vastness of recorded music and the possibilities of sharing it with others. this particular mix is put together from a multi-year effort to explore the worlds of independently-produced R&B, Soul, Jazz, Hip Hop, etc. etc. from the CD/PC era of the early 00’s. We hope you enjoy just as much as we did!

~ Health Connection ~ 
presents the 3rd installment In the ‘Sessions‘ mix series with one of the core selectors at HC, Brian Cassidy of Universal Cave. 
~
“Head In the Clouds” is a sonic love letter to help you get to where you are going…Between the sheets, on the beach, a trek through nature, just to name a few will suit this “Morning Jazz Dub Ballad” that emulates the spirit of Brian’s selections over the years (in the music room) and is a true embodiment of what to expect at a Health Connection session when Brian is in attendance. 
~~
“Heads in the Clouds is music for quiet times, lying down and watching the clouds go by. I wanted to recreate the daydream-like feeling of a Health Connection session at Dryw's. To share those feelings of relaxation, reflection and a sense of discovery. The music covers a wide range from old to new with a few rarities, moody ballads, and some new age and jazzy bits to round it out. If you're listening to this I hope you're takin it easy.”  -BHC

De Kat Memwa as a mix series was created with the intention of promoting a diverse range of genres and bringing together selectors who are not entertaining but inspire and surprise the curious listener. Issue 49, which features the recordings of Sallad Egg, is a perfect example of this ethos. In my sonic paradigm, Sallad Egg is a true DJ's DJ, whose tracks transport me to a different musical universe I have never been to before. Additionally, in my opinion, Sally's background as a trained artist working with different materials allows her to create truly unique musical soundscapes.

It's worth noting that I typically become acquainted with the selectors who contribute to the series through the Internet and sometimes meet them in person later on. However, my experience with Sally was completely the opposite! I had the pleasure of meeting her in person in February 2020, thanks to our mutual friend and the talented Welsh musician and young father, Daf aka @zetazetamusic! 
Looking forward to hanging out together again!

Booyakasha! Handing the keys to the '94 Ford Capri over to one of the most dedicated 12" sleuths on the the internet right now! Mirren is perhaps best known for resurrecting a trove of tantalising 90s/00s cross over jams through his own youtube channel, and for wowing local listening bar enthusiasts lucky enough to catch him in full flight. Sit back, relax and enjoy the smoothness personified. Safe to say he's left no stone or obscure white label unturned for this one!

Q. I get the sense you are a guy who finds real enjoyment in digging deep for long neglected jams and resurrecting them for fresh ears, with frequent uploads to your YouTube channel regularly blowing minds on the internet (speaking from personal experience here!). While there’s a wide range of styles uploaded to the channel, has there been a general theme developing or certain characteristics that you look for when deciding what to share?

A. Glad you've dug the channel! I mean I've been massively influenced by others (e.g. Archive Digital, Modern Art, Mike Who) who were casually dropping heat across their channel/mixes years ago that I never would have come across otherwise. So trying to find and share songs in a similar way has always been the motivation. But you’re at the mercy of what you stumble across, which is why I’m not uploading exclusively mid tempo hip house bangers like I really want haha. I think the variety keeps things interesting though, or at least is hopefully providing a broader appreciation for what’s out there - especially for us Aussie folk.

Q. What inspiration did you draw upon when putting the mix together? Is there a sound, feeling or time period in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. Truthfully this mix is a collection of fun music I've found first-and-foremost, so it might say more about my searching patterns than it being an intentional narrative.. catchy 90/00s hip hop cut-throughs seem to be in no short supply! I think the wealth of music available in the genre does say something about how versatile (and enjoyable) it is and how it can be used as a vehicle for different cultures, ideas or influences. So maybe the mix is me highlighting this :`)

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are particularly close to your heart, or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment? If so, what’s the story behind those and how might you have stumbled across them?

A chunk of the mix is from lucky discogs pickups or random spotify dives so they’re not the most romantic stories, but finding a song in that deep internet corner definitely adds a fondness. There’s also a few dope tunes from some great channels/crews scattered throughout. But 'Njen Grad' and 'Wuck U Right' feel particularly sentimental due to how many hours I’ve clocked listening, so I’m excited to share them!
