Beats+Brew Volume 4 (Low -Key exclusive) Mixed by Mr Moeh24 | Just Themba | Symatics

Emotional Rationale for the mix :
The mix is a dedication to love and its many layers, which sometimes can be contradictory or even absent. Love does not only exist between lovers but it exists between friends, in God, at times of war even during pain and loss. The mix also explores the absence of love in times of hardship and through growth and self care and eventually self actualisation, we may find self love and prioritisation amidst the noise. 2020 has been a year of learning for us all and  love has become even more important during this time than ever before. I hope this mix gives you something to think about, cry about, feel or even dance but essentially a moment to just slow down and give yourself a break.

Technical Rationale for the mix :
As a dj I believe in the fundamentals of what a dj should be, know how to blend and mix, always have a great selection and sequence however i've also come to realise that deejaying is an art and we as dj's tend to forget that, as a result we have also kept it safe and obvious. With this mix i challenge myself to not only focus on mixing beats on beats  but using noise and filtering different elements within songs but also creating singular  conversation with songs from different artists. I also wanted to make sure i do this mix without the help of a software, theres something special about making mixes the analog way, the mistakes, the joy of the mix and blend and the instant magic that happens in the moment.For me its the gaps in between where you can slide a sound bite, or cram a simingly unimportant sound for the listener delight and surprise. This mix is a technical challenge to myself and curation of everything happening in my head, all the interconnected noise I listen to. In keeping with the spirit of the mix i welcome the listener to find the mistakes and embrace the many hidden and obvious kinks about it.

Music Rationale for the mix :
The mix is the limitless canvas and the music becomes the instrument with which I choose to tell the story(ies) of our life. I also wanted to tell the interconnected story of black love from a South African / African context to the  world and the many commonalities we all share as black people. From spirituality, violence, defeat , loss and survival, but also joy, triumph and finding love. The mix is constantly changing in tempo, content , emotion, energy  and music genrers, its really all connected and its possible to play different genres to tell a bigger a story  but this mix force's you to be patient and slow down. I wanted to make sure I use the mix  as an emotional commentary to express what i see and what i feel but put some thought provoking positive energy in the world because we deserve it. A mix of live music, electronic and spoken word and commentary.

Conclusion 
2020 has been the most challenging year of our generation, we have seen dearth alongside life and pain along with joy but we've also seen and felt Love.In 2020 we have also come to realise how important dj's and yes Deejaying is also a sacred art form. This mix celebrates all you collectors, deejays, compilers that have kept the world going and inspired. This season of pain and discomfort I look forward to centering deejays with the same importance as all the other artist and creators. You are not background music entertainers but you've shows that the world needs you as much as it needs all the other things are important.

With love
