big mixes for chooning out

Juanita's Mix 059 with Lychee @Lycheefrut

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. Born again dance music enthusiast - I've been trying in the post-lockdown era to refocus on being a dancer and a fan and exposing myself to serendipity and the things that made me fall in love with dance music in the first place. A bigger scene like NYC can make you jaded fast if you don't protect and cultivate those parts of yourself, I think.  

Q. How long have you been a part of the NY music scene?
A. I first started coming to NYC from Boston for more dubstep/bass-oriented events around 2011 - some standouts: Joker, Skream, Benga at Terminal 5; Caspa and Rusko at Webster Hall (lol); acts like Kuedo and Zomby at Glasslands Gallery, an electroclash rave in Chinatown that I have no idea who was DJing or promoting. At that time I wouldn't say I was part of any kind of community here, I usually rode the Chinatown bus or Bolt Bus (RIP) down for a night and took another bus back early in the morning so I wouldn't have to find lodging. 

I think I started finding community here back around 2015 or 2016 at clubs like Bossa and raves like Groovy Groovy where I'd see the same people again and again. Fourth World 2017 was the party that really made me decide I had to live here eventually. I moved to Brooklyn at the beginning of 2018, and in many ways I only really feel like I've begun to find my place here now.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I had a general idea in mind for this mix that I wanted it to be romantic, but weird. I was thinking about things like friendships with romantic elements; weird sex or cuddling on psychedelics when you're not actually sure if you have a body; unrequited forbidden crushes; flirty dancing around someone for an entire night without needing it to become anything more. I recorded it shortly after the Halloween weekend daytime moment with Todd Edwards playing at Nowadays Nonstop, which I found so fun and romantic with diffused pink lighting that made it feel like the sunrise never ended, so I think that moment influenced this mix as well.

Newworldaquarium - Stars

PUDGE - Blips Ahoy Mate

The first couple Max D releases, like ’09-’10, were issued via RAMP Recordings (somewhat of a dubious label in terms of payout, Ras G (RIP) called the owner dude Suge White a few times and…ay, truth is truth). One of my many sick label mates on that situation was PUDGE, and I remember hearing something of his and just pursuing everything else possible. This is from those deeply important LA 10”s that All City put out in 2009ish. The tightest sloppiness, unreal to me at the time. Still hits so hard.

LL Cool J - Boomin System

Tara Cross - Alphabetical Numbers

Arpanet - The Analyst

Madhouse - Eleven

Chaka Khan - Some Love

This is perhaps my only example of “discovering” a song via the normal method that this mix-series focuses on, like Shazam etc. I actually have never had Shazam on my phone, but asked somebody in the car I was riding in to find out what this was. My parents listened to Rufus & Chaka growing up, but I was not hip at all to this utter banger. Embarrassingly, I even already had the record at my house, just hadn’t ever peeped this song, like a dum dum.

Eddie Henderson - Scorpio - Libra

Charlie Rouse - Hopscotch

Bengt Berger Bitter Funeral Beer Band (w Don Cherry) - Tongsi

Northeast Groovers - Live Tape from 95

Max D’s mix for us is largely an ode to the DMV in the decades spanning the late 1990s to the early 2000s. Similarly to the label curation of Future Times and Max D's collaborations, the mix is stitched together not by a certain sound, but by memory, feeling, and an essence of funk across genre. Cascading, loopy jazz, DC radio station-honkers, and quintessential go-go, among other tunes, await inside.

ETOANO Pr. HodgePodge Mix 008: Max D

With roots in Pittsburgh and a recent stint in Denver, Paul Fleetwood @fleet412 is both a beacon and a connector within the North American dance music community. A co-founder of Hot Mass with hands in events such as Honcho Campout, Lot Mass, VIA Festival, the Great American Techno Festival, and Humanaut, his DJ sets and productions blend a classic, grounded Midwest techno sensibility with a modern edge, always infused with emotion and sincerity. In 2021, Fleetwood launched his own label, Perimeter Junk, which has already cemented itself as a forerunner in predicting the next wave of dancefloor heaters for kind-hearted weirdos.

Read the interview and see a tracklist:

"I knew I wanted a mix that featured mostly four-on-the-floor music, upbeat but smooth and not too aggressive. I imagined a much deeper and more emotive mix than what I originally intended but that didn’t make me any less happy with how it turned out.

This was recorded Saturday, October 8th, 2022 at my apartment in Denver, CO. I used two XDJ-700s and a A&H Xone:92 rotary mixer. I compiled a playlist of roughly nine hours of music from which to choose. Experimenting from that list, it took around seven takes to nail a flow that felt right.

The interview questions brought Molly Nilsson’s 'Never Coming Home' to mind so I decided to include it. I couldn't come up with a smarter way other than to place it as an encore so there ya go, my creative apex at work."

Next up in our mix series is one we've had in the works for a while and comes from Chicago-based @nishkosheh, (aka. Alyssa Beers).

Alyssa is one of many bright stars in the burgeoning US dance scene, regularly appearing alongside names such as Kiernan Laveaux, Russell EL Butler and the Hot Mass crew - a scene known for genre-bending, tempo switching sets with an underlying sense of freaky late night exploration. Here they pivot between housey grooves, psychedelic chuggers and post punk without missing a beat. 

In their own words - "more than most, this mix marks this specific moment in time. i've got some new friends who've become major influences on my taste and don't know fully how much they push me, and i can see that coming through for sure. it's definitely a swirl of fast and slow. i love to  jam all kinds of tracks together, in this case i think it worked out but my biggest hope is that in the end you can tell that i'm having fun." 

Enjoy!
