We return to the west coast this month with a mix from @lilcis. 

Although her presence in behind the decks is relatively new, her presence in the music scene is not. She is one of the co-founders of @goodnightout_vancouver, a project based around consent culture in the nightlife scene. She is also a co-founder at @audiosocialvancouver, which aims to cultivate culture and create a platform for an inclusive community to connect through sound. Her love of music and event planning is the driving force behind why she picked up djing. 

Ashtyn strives to improve her community and the music scene, even with her name, "Lil Cis" aims to spark a conversation around Gender Identity. Cis, short for cisgender (pronounced sis-gender, or just sis), is a term that means whatever gender you are now is the same as what was presumed for you at birth. Our appearance does not equal our gender, her playful name aims to make us more aware of everybody’s experience of gender. 

This very conscious approach to her place in music industry is admirable, and we can't wait to see where it takes her in the future.

ViBES : Vitamin B #008

As someone not bound to a single genre, Ciscles wanted this mix to be representative of the intersections he finds myself in with music. From dark 140 to experimental breaks, hip hop to techno, it’s heavy but it’ll move you. Feeling the weight and chaos of the world recently, and as always, music is the greatest tool to help transmute that energy.

"We Control Matter Because We Control The Mind" George Orwell

In this uncertain world where we are prepared to give up so much of ourselves personally into data harvesting and targeted adverts, is this driving our impulse buys and pushing us to swipe right, or our we in command? How much of our 'desires' are real, and how much are we controlled? In this peak consumerist culture, is what we desire really genuine, or are malign forces driving us ever further towards their goals?

'Controlled Desires' continues a new VA trilogy series for Codename: RCRDS, with several newcomers joining the party for part II.

The EP commences with the hardest working man in mastering, Nurve, bringing the heat with 'Faded Glamour', a tearing dancefloor banger which should find homes in plenty of sets. Ahead of his first full release on the label, Indigo Virus delivers an epic slice of hazy jungle with 'Things Change', before Data B ably demonstrates his beat swordmanship with the dark rolling shaolin number 'Rumble'. The EP draws to a close with another debutant, Joey Del Toro slamming into focus with the amen tearer 'Play That'.
