Can't Play Myself (A Tribute To Amy)

Wartime

Introducing my first music set, a meticulously curated sequence.

Music has always been part of my photography/videography sessions and I have always been amazed how sound can take the visual language to another level.

Digging into music through intensive record sessions and influenced by Montreal local music scene led me in this direction.

Not sticking to one genre by mixing things up brought a smoother dynamic to this experience.

One song that is standing out in this set is Sadeness by Enigma.

Enough talking enjoy the listening.

The quieter you are the more you can hear

august 8th, 2024

it just doesn’t really get much comfier than nightmoves. the entire place drips in pure a1 taste; from the soundsystem to the bar crew to the booth setup to the every little design touch to the regular dancers… a true gem of a club.

t’was a rainy august night. alina & guthrie played records all night long to a room full of our nearest&dearest new york friends+fam, and we loved every single minute.

a lot of those records were stalwarts of our summer bags, so this recording makes for a nice lil’ summary of this nutty 2024 season.

big luv 2 all the brooklyn beloved who came out that night <3

& xtra luv to seth for the warmest of welcomes, and for gettin it on tape.
