With fall around the corner, we look to Sold (@soldchicago) to take us through the feeling of trying to feel again. It’s time to decompress, grab some tea, take a seat, and ride the wave.

Moods is community-curated and community-supported. By helping us out, you're directly supporting artist commissions, curator fees, merchandise, and materials for parties. Consider subscribing to our Substack (moods.substack.com/), or give us a buck, four, or more a month directly: danielsharp.cargo.site/Moods

We paired Sold's mix with a work by Frank Bowling titled “Head”. Bowling’s work in abstract expressionism and color field painting resemble a similar mastery in handling and composing dramatic saturation using raw form.

Moods 61: Sold

“It started a few days ago…any speaker you approach starts playing grainy, barely audible dance tunes. Sound bars, bluetooth and car speakers—you tried turning them off, synching and un-synching, unplugging them, and nothing has stopped the music. At first it was easy to brush off, but it’s too frequent to not take it personally. Yesterday you walked back and forth under the grocery store speaker twenty times, and each time you did, the music was there.

Now you’re lying in bed and it's happening again. This time out of your phone speaker. You pick up your phone and a prompt arrives: BEAM ME UP? There are two buttons under the question: “Yes” and “Yes.” After a sigh and a passing moment of fear, you pick a “Yes.”

Like in a movie, everything is suddenly white and you’re floating up. As you rise, the music gets louder and more defined, you’re approaching the source—and then, a moment of clarity: this is a space rave you’ve always hoped for.

You find yourself on a dancefloor in what might be a space station and the vibe is everything you need. The beings you find yourself dancing with, whoever they might be and wherever they might be from, are your community now. They’ve all gathered here to find the same thing you have: a rave utopia you had only dreamt of. “

“Hey whatsup i’m Bert.. i'm a sometimes organizer/ artist in the bay area DIY radical art communities. Been a fan of dance music since the first waves of Oakland warehouse raves and have been collecting and playing records since across a wide musical spectrum. 


I made a poll a few days ago about what sort of mix I should record and 90’s early 2000’s electronica won :p..so not typical of music I dj out, more of like a snapshot of sounds I liked when I first was getting into raving along with some newer stuff that calls back to that time/has some nostalgic quality.”
