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.

Mix of the Week #445 is "Memoires D'Outre Bong"  by Basso
Follow and include @growingbinrecords in your track ID requests

"Out of a sentimental and pseudo intellectual notion I called this "Memoires D'Outre Bong". (some of you will understand the wordplay... hint: there is a steak called Chateaubriand) My memory is usually not that bad. But somehow the vision into the years from 1994 to 1998 is quite blurry. I think it has to do with the hits from the bong. Here are some bits that I remember well. Most of them are not really official hits, some of them actually give me shivers ... all below 90 bpm!

Mix of the Week #445: Basso - Memoires D'Outre Bong

"A Wrinkle In Time" is a series of curated guest mixes inspired by John Peels habit to accidentally play records at the incorrect number of rpm. Though it never failed to annoy and embarrass him, one of the tribute compilations released after his death was given the title "Right Time, Wrong Speed". Nowadays Wrongspeeders are a popular and fun tool for most DJs. "A Wrinkle In Time" is not about playing 45s on 33 or the other way round though, but it has one important rule, its only rule: Don’t get too close to the original playing speed of the record, the area between +4 and -4 on the pitch scale of the turntable is a forbidden zone.

My first guests are those super nice guys and unerring tastemakers Phil OG & DJ Rotwein also known as the Berlin based dynamic duo BALEARIC BANANA.

Next up on Idle Cellars we have the unique and powerful force of love and mystic beauty.. Zozo from Istanbul. After a hiatus we're back with an exquisite selection from one of the finest and sweetest players in Europe. Very proud to present this mesmeric magic carpet ride...

'I wanted to cook up some witchy stew of laidback, cinematic, psychedelic, dubby and heavenly pop grooves' Zozo. Istanbul Nov 2022.

' Zozo is a music curator, collector and radio host from Istanbul, known for experimenting at the fringes of dance music. One way or another, she has grown to be one of the most outstanding selector DJs in her country. Following the motto ‘life is hard but music is good’ since an early age, she has a seasoned character and deep understanding of the dynamics of the dancefloor, with which she communicates with empathy. That has kept her busy on the weekends: she has brought her versatile taste to iconic dance floors as Panorama Bar, Contact Tokyo, Primavera Festival, De School, Ankali Prague, Robert Johnson or Salon des Amateurs. She is also a regular in high-rated festivals as Berlin Atonal, Waking Life, Lente Kabinet, Flow Festival, Strange Sounds From Beyond, Dekmantel and its Selectors offshoot.

She's also a part of the Lyon based label & dj crew Macadam Mambo and resident of Berlin institution Sameheads. Also a member of electronic music and art collective ‘Les Belles De Nuit’ founded in Zurich, supporting women and queer artists. Furthermore, her work has been featured on FACT Magazine, Beats In Space, Resident Advisor, Crack Magazine, Carhartt Wip Radio, Groove Magazine, Boiler Room, Dj Mag, Trax Magazine, The Ransom Note, and many more ... 

Zozo is now crowning her interest in music and art by founding a multidisciplinary platform; AFOM (A friend of mine). She aims to bring together her friends, in different fields such as music, art, design and publishing who have been dancing around the same fire and play the game ... '

We are more than happy to welcome Camille (@plasticbamboo) to our hallooo Mix Series. He takes us on a balearic holiday for the ears, traveling through easy listening, synth-pop, library and balearic boogie. Perfect for the first sunny spring moments. 🌿🌼🌴 Enjoy the journey! 🎶

.
↓ ↓ ↓ INTERVIEW WITH CAMILLE ↓ ↓ ↓

Q: Thanks for your contribution to our mix series, how did you prepare for this mix, and how would you describe the eventual result?

Thank you for inviting me ! This mix is 100% vinyl. I prepared it going through the records I bought last year, which involve some news and reissues as well as some older stuff I found at flea markets. Once I got a direction, I dug in my record collection to excavate records that fit in which I’d never used in previous mixes, and then tried to make sense out of it all. Somehow once a mix is recorded, I always discover links between tracks that I hadn’t noticed before and tell myself a story. The result is a mix of easy listening, synthpop, library music and balearic boogie.

Q: Is there a record in the mix that you associate with a special story?

Indeed, the Daniele Patucchi soundtrack of Turbo Time, which had been in my wantlist for almost a decade. Last summer I went to visit Florence in Italy, mainly to see its monuments and art legacy, but on the last day of my trip I decided to check out the Mercato delle Pulci, with no expectations whatsoever. After going through records for a few minutes, there it was, in perfect condition, waiting for me. It’s not a crazy story but one of those unexpected and effortless digging moments that stays with me after.

Q: How do you dig for new music, and/or what kind of things arouse your interest in Music? 

I don’t have one particular way of digging, I just keep my eyes and ears open. Right now the social networks play a big part in bringing music to my ears, whether it’s groups, people I follow or friends, especially when it comes to new releases or reissues. But my preference still goes to physical digging, in record shops or at flea markets. It means spending a lot of time on the field but it usually pays off and it’s a priceless feeling. In music, I guess I’m looking for something that makes me feel alive. Sometimes it’s a beat that makes me want to dance, sometimes an emotion through lyrics or a melody. I like to be surprised too.

Q: One record you will never let go, and one that doesn’t want to leave your wantlist?

One that I will never let go is Lait de Coco by Maya. And among the many records that don’t want to leave my wantlist, there is a 12’’ by Eddy Louiss called Caraïbes / Les Éléphants / Taureau. Maybe one day…

Q: Music bonds people. Any djs/projects/shops/etc.. you would like to shout out? 

There are a lot to mention, firstly my friends in Paris : Les Yeux Orange, LeonxLeon, Vidal Benjamin, Masterphil, the record shop Babaluma… Sara Mautone from Florence. Also Patrick Ryder from Manchester. His label Talking Drums is on fire right now, check it out if you haven’t. As Gary’s Gang once said, « keep on makin’ music » !
