Hello kids. 

It's been a while since I released a mix and the good people over at Soundfuse asked me to do an exclusive Autumn mix. I just couldn't refuse. It's my absolute favorite time of year and always a very creative time for me dating back as far as I can remember writing and performing. 

As it has been told, a good friend gifted me a pair of belt drive tables a few Summers before attending college, so I wasn't exactly the worst when I got there, but still so very rough around the edges. Well, when you attend college in Poultney, VT and bring decks, you could be fucking Q Bert for all they know. They loved it and encouraged me to play for them as often as time would allow, which was often. I had my decks facing the window and the speakers pointed out to the quad or I would set them up in a friend's room right in front of the quad which is what spread the word there was an actual DJ on campus. 

Kids would come over to the room to smoke weed, clown around, play Bond 64, and the regular college dorm shit, and I would start playing all my weird records I had been buying and collecting. I had a penchant for ambient/late night tunes from the very beginning and my crate really reflected that. Kids would get lost in the tunes, ask who they were listening to, and seek out those artists. I wanted to try and recreate that spirit in this mix.

This piece of music was created as a stream of conciousness with zero planning beforehand. I gathered all my weird records in a pile and went for it. I wanted the vibe to bring you back to a huge part of my youth with love and warmth and humanity; clicks, pops, warts, and all. 

I have included a tracklist so you can seek out these amazing artists and hopefully go down a few wormholes and discover even more music. A DJ's job is to always educate as he creates. You have a civic duty to music to push people to support the artform or all is lost. 

Thanks so much for all the support over the years. I can tell you the best is yet to come and there are a ton of exciting things happening in the future. 

With a love supreme,

Wyllys.
