Inspired by a collection of poems by Constance Hunting, the spirit of this mix series is to ask each artist to share, in some form, a distinct memory they hold in their minds, and express that memory over the arc of a mix and an associated written piece. This can be interpreted however one feels best suits their vision - whether it be a selection that evokes or reminds you of that central time / place / person, or a weaving of sounds that reflects the narrative of the feeling in that memory, or anything in between.The idea is to see memory as a breathing, living being, one that influences your feelings and sense of self.

For Crack Mix 400, we're celebrating clubs and nightlife culture across the world with a series of archive mixes.

This recording documents a “particularly packed and sweaty one” in September 2018, when local selector Ribeka joined club mainstay Call Super for an intimate rinse out at Glasgow's La Cheetah. Ribeka warms up for the first 90 minutes before Call Super takes over to close.

Words by selfget about this sonic memory:

"If you follow the switchbacks past Amanda's Country Store, you'll see a sharp right for 376.
It's a rough and rocky road, just take it slow. 5 miles up, the road ends.
Hike a half mile in, take the path over the bridge that hooks up the mountainside.
 
The hot springs were the best part of an overdue vacation. 
That, and the trout we caught the next morning. They must've just stocked the river."

Word by @mxblaire about this sonic memory:

"This mix is a validation note to my former self who was in the middle of a grief-stricken period of not being able to sleep. I had only slept a couple hours over the course of 3 days because of a traumatic experience I was living through at the time. I desperately needed to put my strung out mind to rest. In that time, I battled with undulating waves of tension and relief. Cycles of gently soothing myself only to find out hours have passed with no solace and then moving to self-destructive frustration.  

The shape of my memory is not uniform. It is raw. It is soft & comforting. It is sharp & painful. This mix captures the agonizing pattern of tension & self-soothing through experimental and ambient leaning sounds. I hope you open yourself up to all types of feeling as you listen. 

With an abundance of love, 
Mx. Blaire <3"

@dj_leesh on this sonic memory:


Fragmentation and Union on the Search for Utopia


It is not Utopia that we strive for. It is not reaching a “destination”, as Utopia is no place. It is the search for Utopia. Upon the water, the boat floats. We are in charge of the sails, and we decide which direction we move toward. On this journey, no one said it would be easy. Choppy waters and going forward into the unknown darkness of night. Yet, the stars shine, as does the moon. And from above, there is light. And when hours pass and the sunlight breaks, it simply illuminates. Simultaneously this light casts shadows on the placid watery plane. We need both on this search ~ both night and day. Symbiosis leads to quantum leaps. On this search for no place, memories arise, and with them we move ahead in awareness. Memories fragmented and fractal, morphing and merging and changing with the tides. They gather along the way into a collection of dark and shiny pieces of us. Some we choose to keep. Some we choose to free. We honor them all, for without them we would not be here, right now. On the boat. On this search. Shaping new memories as we float. The Utopian heartbeat thumps to the rhythm of just one sound. Do you hear it? Love is calling.

words by @delilahtov about her sonic memory: 

"somewhere over the rainbow, there is a place we can go to do magic. it’s a land of abundance where we tranifest our dreams—yet we bring our nightmares with us. in loopy quests for healing, power, and pussy, we tromp up and down a steep mountainside bearing amulets, wands, and shields. on moonlit nights, shadows reach out from our wakes, but vanish as soon as we turn around to look. 



this mix is inspired by a night on that land, taking refuge from a storm and wayward psychic energies with three queer children in a bathhouse. we fed logs to the stove in a wood-fired sauna as outside, muffled thunder seeped from clouds sparkling with electricity. i felt myself channeling Hera, adopting Zeus’s ephebes—young, effeminate cupbearers. one carried water, the other a staff, and the third was keeper of the Pan flute, an eternally hitting vape; the gift that keeps us living. 



staying lifted, surfing currents of our whims, we fanned the flames of a bonfire outside that persisted to spite the rain, until one of the children whispered “hold me,” or rather demanded “cuddle puddle.” we traipsed up to the cabin, where with beaver-like instincts, i heaped blankets and pillows on the wood floor to make a dam that held back time. the kids nuzzled in purring satisfaction. an oil lamp on the hearth illuminated offerings of tinctures, balms, and spiked Mountain Dew. i puffed the vape while i scratched the kids’ backs, admiring the sacredness of youth. 



for those few hours we were all nineteen, re-writing our stories with chosen family and striving to not re-inscribe the wounds inflicted by our blood. we needed to not give a fuck about anything except blowing on each other’s simmering coals. both dreams and nightmares can keep one from sleep; i know this from experience. so nothing could sate me like watching chests rise and fall in slow rhythms, as each of Hera’s children faded into gentle sleep.


dedicated to the lost and found bois."

The marine forms abound in the sea depths, in marshes which are flooded at high tide, in shallow inlets and the muddy bottoms underlying the sandy surface of the seashore. The fresh water forms are plentiful on the mossy stones of mountain streamlets, pools bordering rivulets, dripping rocks.

Words by Eugenia about this sonic memory: 

In this episode, I reflect a moment I had last summer, late August. I was sitting with a new friend, up on a raised wooden platform late at night, the second day of Waking Life. We had talked at length, having just begun to understand the ebbs and flows of each other’s minds. I told them that lately I had been holding onto moments of unresolved conflict, of goodbyes that felt rushed, or pains of others I was unable to heal. I was carrying the weight of these small, broken up moments which had accumulated over time.

A thick, dreamlike fog rolled in front of us, as we sat, holding each other tightly, It suddenly parted, revealing the outlines of graceful figures moving towards us in the distance. This vision coincided with a moment of precise clarity: I noticed my idealistic need for harmony in every moment; at the influx of this realization, I began to accept and lean into the dissonance that repeats itself, in spite of this desire. I tried to forgive myself for the lack of closure of past connections, the loose ends.

I realize I felt this because I deeply cared about each moment, and this is natural, human, and essential to who I am. The anxiety and subtle shards of pain I had been clutching in my chest for so long burst out of me, leaving me transparent, spacious, and light. I was filled with gratitude to have had the possibility to be heard, and seen, in this realization, by a person who I felt intrinsically understood me.

In this first transmission, I wished to guide listeners through a moment I experienced in which a long-existing emotional weight left me, feeling swept away by the space around me. Through this, the previously hazy details of my inner self came into my field of vision.

Vol. 52 comes courtesy of Justin Cantrell aka ju ca, an Australia based musician and founder of the label Daisart. His deep interest in the finer details of sound is evident in his own music and the label he runs that most recently released Haji K’s quiet stunner of a record “Black Against An Orange Line”. Justin is also an avid digger of Australian music, and has some very exciting projects in relation to that coming up soon. His most recent album “Chasms” was released on Angoisse in February of this year and comes highly recommended!

Motion Cast Vol. 52: ju ca

by @penumbra_0, curated by @eeeeeeeugenia

In the shimmering sunlight the city was a transparent lake, but as the sun crept down the city dissolved into a veiling grey horizon. I remember the faint remoteness as I stared out to my hometown of Los Angeles. I had recently moved back home and had expected for the rush of nostalgia to bloom into a previous self. However, there was instead a stillness that seemed to be waiting for something. The rolling hills before me arched up and down but only seemed to descend. The moments that followed dilated around me and I took solace in knowing that I was truly happy again.

This progression of music tries to embody the slowed and slurred first moments of my days rediscovering Los Angeles and the unintentional ebb and sway of finding myself again. A gradually looping state of lethargy breaks out into its own speed and dance.

a space where sound is sound, without needing to be music. 
a space where we promote all audible oddities, in fact, encourage.
a space where we focus on the whole.
a space where time isn’t measured.
a space where no structure is okay. 
a space where silence is accepted.
a space where active listeners flourish.
a space where sounds that normally don’t get heard, get heard.
a space for intellectual physical emotional spiritual analysis of sounds that excite you. 
a space for you to be weird about what you find sonically beautiful.
a space for you to play all the groovy rhythms you want, if you want. 
a space for you to play all the ambient drones you want, if you want.
a space for you to play all the hair standing unexpected glitch you want, if you want. 
a space for you to play none of the things that are expected.
a space for traditional world sounds, in an untraditional manner. 
a space for comfort in discomfort. 
a space for not just sounds, but also words, poetry, whispers and voice.
