I keep coming back to this set, it's so special! Thanks @gigstab

twisted legs beat, I want this record! :)

CCL (@ccl-url) has many tricks and plenty of surprises up their sleeve. London-born, US-bred but now Berlin-based, they are playful in what they play but serious about how they play it, whether that's head spinning 160bpm cut, "cowgirl-breaks or wiggle steppers." The key for this multidisciplinary artist and former New Forms festival curator is to find the similarities and differences between shades of sound and rhythm and exploit them to spellbinding effect. As a producer, they are no different and have always managed to find fresh in-between sounds on labels like Fever AM and Discwoman. 

The singular DJ steps up this week with almost two hours of pure sonic adventure. It's a perfect showcase of how they can soundtrack imaginary worlds from humid future jungles to robot dances in the sky. You'll hear rhythms you could never imagine and contort your body in impossible ways, all while admiring the dexterity of the DJ who has threaded together such a trippy trip.

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Hello, I'm a producer and DJ going by the name of Ciel. My real name is Cindy, my pronouns are she/her, and I'm based in Toronto, Canada.

How do you deal with being nervous before a gig? 

Try not think about it :) It doesn't always work, but i find it happens from time to time if I'm really exhausted from not sleeping on tour and my brain has naturally shut off. If I can't stop thinking about it, I will try to select the first track from my vinyl bag and have a vague sense of what Rekordbox playlists I plan to play from. I ad-hoc all my sets because I love picking tracks in response to the audience's energy, but sometimes that is a lot more stressful for me and I find myself doom scrolling the USB. Devising a strategy, even if I end up not following it, does a lot to soothe my anxiety. 

Where do you see yourself musically in 2044?

I don't know what the future holds but I hope to be a full time composer of film and TV scores when I'm in my 50s and no longer want to tour constantly.

If you could have anything on your rider… What would you choose?

An indica-sativa hybrid joint (no tobacco), nice bottle of orange wine, German flat peaches, and a bathroom in the booth (anything is possible, right?)

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

Less celebrity worship, less influencer culture, less fame & money-chasing, more focus on behind-the-scenes folks (whether DJs or producers or labels) who foster community and tirelessly build their local scenes.

Where Minor Science’s Crack Mix was tuned for the sweatiest of dancefloors, his set for our Sunday series plumbs less outwardly bracing depths, with the artist otherwise known as Angus Finlayson opting instead for a palette of slow-burners to both soothe and stir this weekend.

An ode to the bluest summer of them all 💙

< A quick inventory of blues: Sapphire - believed to attract abundance and blessings > Aquamarine - known as the stone of courage < Cobalt - originating from the German for goblin, or trouble-maker > Cerulean - like the color of the sky on a clear day < Ultramarine - named for what exists beyond the sea >

Live @ Nowadays // Opening before Anz - Sept 22 2023

Recorded on the Sunday in Room 3 
Thanks to  Suzybee, Steevio & all the beautiful dancing souls

Juanita's Mix 34 with CCL @ccl-url

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. An amorphous blob/orb that likes to wiggle & and dance :)

Q. What was your last memorable club night in NYC?
A. Funnily enough many of my memorable NYC club nights have been with persons in series :). My last NYC club night was with adab. I'm pretty incredibly lucky I got to have that as one of my last club experiences before the pandemic - I think about it all the time. Our friend Shane aka Kiernan Laveaux was also present, and so were some other friends, which made it extra wonderful. adab is a sonic sibling and I look up to them a lot, we got to play separately and back to back. Their set was so profoundly deep and spiritual, and our B2B was like flying at Warp-8, we got to play faster Jungle and DnB and dance around. It was one of the most joyous I’ve felt in a long time. Another notable NYC club experience was an all-night “stop and start” with the one and only Physical Therapy, the heads know. ;)

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I made this mix thinking about what I would like to listen to at a freaky stage called “The Way In” that was at Honcho Campout last year. The visual and memory is so visceral to me, it’s a place my mind travels to often during these times. Slinky, shimmery & freaky in the glow of sunrise. I’ve been listening to a lot of Trip Hop during lockdown, so this is undeniably influenced by those sounds. I miss the feeling of dancing slow, and fast, at the same time, and hugging friends on the dance floor. 

Some hum, crackle and mistakes in here for good measure, so you know I’m a hooman.
