While dropping their self-titled debut LP with us in August, Anya and Izaak from Loveshadow (@loveshadowdjs) were kind enough to also record a lovely mix and answer a few questions. Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Hi Izaak and Anya, nice to have you on board. Both living in Bay Area, how would you describe your daily surroundings? Is it a nice place to be as an artist?

LS: Right now we live in SF. We grew up one town away from each other near the airport, though we didn’t meet until much later. The landscape is inspiring for sure- we spend as much time as we can out in the parks and wild areas and draw a lot from that. The art and music scenes here run deep, though the cost of living and of course covid have made things tougher.
 
MFM: The songs on your debut album as Loveshadow -which will be out in August- sound incredibly fresh where they also remind to certain pop, boogie, funk and even house from the mid and late '80s. What were some of your main influences for this project? 

LS: Thanks! We have to mention the UK act Fashion after whose song we named the group, but our tastes range all over. You could say that Loveshadow is kind of a lap around the 80’s prehistory of today’s dance music, when things were still firmly rooted in pop songwriting but had a simultaneously psychedelic and funky sensibility- one that grew out of dub/disco/punk counterculture. Getting more serious about learning the records at the roots of the whole thing allowed us to see how we might contribute something new to it in a way that was more than a style exercise.

MFM: Of course also the use of specific instruments ad up to that flavor - it seems that for example the Linndrum plays an important role. Did you aim for that sound and gathered the instruments around it, or the other way around maybe?

LS: We had an overall idea in mind that definitely informed the instrumentation but we’re not purists. A lot of the sounds on the record are replications of or deviations from the iconic originals. Those famous drum sounds in particular are like symbols, they impart a particular meaning and we use them to set a mood.

MFM: What's the dynamic between the two of you like in the studio? Is there a certain steady structure or does this change all the time? Maybe you could tell a little about your writing and recording process?

LS: It changes all the time- we’ve lived and worked in so many places separately and together since we started recording. Either one of us might come up with an idea that we’ll design sounds around, demo, arrange, and then throw it all in the trash and start again. Most of the songs on the record have had a few lives.

MFM: It feels that the music from the LP could work really well live on a stage too. Are there any plans for you to go touring? 

LS: We’re going to play a gig in Detroit later this summer that will be sort of a test run! After that, we’ll see. The project started out as an interest in records and recording, but anything’s possible.

MFM: Thanks a lot for contributing! It seems you quite regularly record a mix. Have you both always been busy collecting and sharing records? 

LS: Our pleasure, thanks so much for asking us! We’re always looking for new music. Sharing mixes online has helped us organize our favorites but playing parties is the best. We were gigging around before covid and we’ll hopefully get back to it as things continue to open up. This mix is definitely on the hype side of things- new digs, old favorites, some edits, tunes pals graciously sent our way, and what we’ve been dancing around our apartment to while we were stuck inside.

Italo Freedom w/ Oisin & Sloan - 04.09.21

For this 16th show, the energetic French DJ duo Vitamine (@vitamineee)(a.k.a Artrax) prepared a 61min mixe. Tireless diggers, the collective took its strength in Cluj (Romania) by inviting artists such as Paramida, Barbara Boeing, or X-Coast. This mix between euro house and disco will make you want to go snoop on their Youtube channel where they are carefully uploading forgotten pépitasss.

The mix was broadcasted on Internet Public Radio (@internetpublicradio) in Guadalajara.

🔊 https://youtu.be/yMZttnT6r08

Multi Culti tune in to earth's axial tilt in the second round of it's flagship 12' series with EQUINOX I:

The global occult label kick off the seasonal shift with a magical collaboration between Mexican chug-guru Iñigo Vontier and Moscow based brothers Simple Symmetry. 'Hocus Pocus' is an anthem for the fuzzy-minded, post-lockdown party-goer. It's a mesmerizing merger of contemporary electronics and vintage psychedelia. We don't know much about Ponty Mython, but their sound is right at home on this eclectic record. A freeform flea-market of samples strewn around a broken beat, strung together around a catchy melody, 'Pinto La Meah' has an optimistic feel, a subtly nostalgic sense of travel and discovery that suits the global groove collecting theme. 

The B-side tracks take the tempo down while raising the hands in the air, perfect for lockdown house parties wherever big-room raves are still ruled out. Ecuadorian Pancho Piedra leads the proceedings with 'Servio', serving up a loopy banger that recalls classic Comeme in the best possible way. Punchy, no nonsense party track with just enough spice in the salsa. Colombia via Buenos Aires producer Hermetics teams up with Quito-based, LA-native Hannah Lee on 'Lux Naturae' with an absolutely killer beat with massive, hydraulic-level sub bass. Finally, Magic Pirate takes the downtempo breakbeat vibe into trippier territory with a wicked sounding piano and aphex-synth-sounding romp through his wild imagination on 'Make me a Jazz Coffee.' These are fresh, genre-defying and tracks to enter the autumnal equinox, and a fearless move forward in time for earth dance fans the world over.

2. Ponty Mython - Pinto la Meah (Original Mix)

Josh, one part of the bubblegum crew, has got to have one of the most unbelievably deep collections going. Tuning in to his instagram is a guaranteed ticket to drool central. Those hip to the Dublin scene have probably caught him at the infamous audiophile spot Hang-Dai. Outside of this bubble though, this cat keeps a very low online profile. That is why I am immensely excited and privileged to share a truly nuts first extended session from the turntables of his home. 

Lights down low for this 🌃

'tis not everyone's favorite season of the year, but definitely the last mix of the decade. What better way to end it than let the high priest of Synth-Pop (Episcopal Minister John Zahl) read us the mass. John has prepared almost 5 hours of musical cleansing (recorded live et at Public Records on Oct 26, '19), which hopefully should be enough to wash you free from your sins of the last 10 years. Amen

Next up on the Local Selection Mix Series we welcome Josh Kavanagh, one of the founding members and faces behind the beloved Irish collective Bubblegum.

Joshua kavanagh is a Dublin based DJ & one half of the Bubblegum crew which run regular parties in Dublin, from it's beginning in The Bernard Shaw, to growing and packing out venues around the city as well as inviting over acts such as Orpheu The Wizard, Esa Williams and Bufiman. 
They base their sound at these parties around what they love, any strand of world music but not limited to, South African, Nigerian, French and everything else in between.

The mix opens up with some soul, lovers rock and reggae from Canada and Nigeria, moves into some boogie and then shifts into a more uptempo clubby sound throughout the latter half of the mix.

An hour of dub and lovers rock. It was supposed to be the summer of dub ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Summer Of Dub

Everyone shuffles up the stairs, poorly attempting to find their seats before the lights start to dim. The final customers rush to their seats as the lights are extinguished, obnoxiously bumping into every person who's just made themselves comfortable, some even knocking over an array of different sticky treats. A communal sense of excitement coats the air on this room full of absolute strangers. The suspense rapidly builds after each advert, the whole room are on the edge of their seats, then suddenly...

Dutch label I Lost My Poncho In Istanbul call upon Moisk, a collaboration between Pletnev AKA Ponty Mython and Fourmï Rouz, for their latest release Paupio Genome. Our pick is an obscure acid track entitled ‘Democrazy’ which carefully balances UK bleep techno-inspired hat patterns with a squelchy 303 bassline and repetitive spooky chants.

PREMIERE: Moisk - Democrazy [I Lost My Poncho In Istanbul]

Mix 21 comes from the hands of Potato Head resident and Second Circle affiliate Dea Barandana (@dea-barandana). Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Hi Dea, welcome to the series. How have you been lately? How are you spending your days in Bali?

DB: Hi!! Thanks for having me. I’m actually doing well, i’ve been living in Jakarta for the past 3 months. I moved to Jakarta in order to work in the music industry, which is more alive here, where in Bali 93% of the income are coming from  tourism.

MFM: I assume dance floors in Indonesia have been closed for a while too, right? As a resident of Potato Head, do you fear for what will become of nightlife after all this is over or do you extract positive energy from it too maybe?

DB: It is pretty much dead regarding club scene in Indonesia, but there are still nightclubs open illegally here and there. I don’t want to think about too much, I just hope the best for everyone who work or involve in anyway with this industry to survive this pandemic situation.

MFM: Can you tell a bit more about how you initially got involved in becoming a resident for Potato Head?

DB: It was all started on 2012, which is pretty much day 1 . Back then I was only a resident DJ and soon it progressed to managing their audio engineering thing, setting up all their music venues such as Studio Eksotika, Kaum Jakarta, etc, even involve in designing room acoustic for them. So pretty much I’m doing almost everything related to sound and music in that company. And the actually gave me a cool title as AUDIOPHILE DIRECTOR hahahahha..

MFM: You were a musician at that time too already, right? What's the balance like in between all those roles?

DB: I wouldn’t say I’m a musician, I do play instruments but I don’t consider myself as a musician. I see myself more as an audio engineer and a sound designer. DJing is not my main income, I did it just because of my obsession on collecting music in any physical form, and I like to share it to others. DJing is just one of many ways to do so. But yeah 70% of my income comes from music or audio work related.

MFM: Exactly one year ago your first release as part of Zatua came out via Second Circle, as result of a live improvisation of 4 members. What can you say about how the EP was recorded?

DB: It’s recorded live, I don’t use any samples. My role in the band is the rhythm section. I wrote most of the bass line, both acoustic and synth based. I also wrote melodies and ideas for pretty much everything.

MFM: It initially was never a planned project, correct? Now that the first release is a fact, do you have more future ideas and plans for it? 

DB: For now, I’m more focusing on working with my other band than Zatua. The band are called White Shoes and The Couples Company, it’s one of the biggest independent group here in Indonesia and I'm in charge of the production of their 3rd album, I wasn’t part of the group but I took full responsibility on their recording process. It's different from my usual style but its more applicable for Indonesia local market. I supposed to release 2 mini album of my solo project this year, but it got postponed because of the pandemic. For Zatua itself, hopefully we can record a new album by the end of the year.

MFM: Thanks a lot for sending in your contribution to our mix series. What can tell about the mix? 

DB: I’m just let it flow. I don’t think to much when I play records.

Juanita's Mix 039 with SHYBOI @djshyboi

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. A deadpan absurdist interested in what makes people tick and the various factors that draw us all together.

Q. How long have you been a part of the NYC music scene?
A. I moved right outside of Queens when I was 13 and have been hovering around different spots as a spectator and accidental DJ since then. Sometimes front right, usually back left, and if we're both lucky, right behind the decks. 

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. It's a little bit of me, just for you.
