GhostlyCast 70 welcomes the considered ear of Chicago producer Jason Garden. A triple threat, Garden records under the name Olin (working with labels such as Argot, Detour, and Giegling's g~~g~~~g), runs his own imprint (Boundary Monument), and serves as resident DJ and talent buyer for the acclaimed Smart Bar venue. The expansive, freeform mix reflects his approach live—as he explains:

"Over the years I have always grappled with the idea of what a mix should be. While I do enjoy the idea of carefully stitching together something thematic that I might not be able to do live, I’ve always also been a bit turned off by the idea because it feels somehow disingenuous. I get the sense that I’m telling a white lie about what it’s like to see me DJ. Conversely, my favorite part of DJing a party is the spontaneity and joy that can come from the feedback loop I share with the crowd. It’s never perfect, but it’s human and very genuine, which I love. So, while there is no dancefloor to speak of, this mix feels as true-to-life as such a thing can be: recorded without a plan, straight through, at home on a Sunday evening."

" The function of music is to release us from the tyranny of conscious thought. "
-Sir Thomas Beecham

Music is a fine thread. It weaves through us all, along with dancing, you can achieve a euphoric feeling. That feeling gives voice to our oneness with each other and everything on this planet. It opens our hearts and releases us from dogma and a state of duality. Emotions, energy, heartbeats, release, connection. These are the reasons for which I make and listen to music.
