I recorded this mix at our LAVAradio show Nov. 7th 2025, the day after the election. I didn’t want to play and really wanted to cancel the show because I was in deep confusion and mourning like so many of us. I was going back and forth on wanting to put this mix out but had this “whatever” mindset. 

Fast forward till now, so much has happened. I revisit this mix and realized that this encapsulates what I was experiencing emotionally at the time and what a lot of us may be experiencing now. It takes you through all the stages of mourning - grief, fear, sadness, defeat, joy, perseverance, hope and pure anger. 

What we are witnessing here in this country is appalling and everyday feels heavy with no end. I can’t even find the right words to describe it without feeling utter disgust and confusion. The most important thing right now is community. Like minded individuals that will help each other glow - otherwise it’s a fuck no.

Anti-fascism, anti-war, anti-racism, anti-musk, anti-genocide, anti-transphobia & homophobia, anti-classism, anti-capitalism, respect our veterans, exercise your 1st amendment right, respect and love each other. 

Oh yea and fuck fear mongering too.

I hope this mix inspires you to really let go, stay close to loved ones and connect with community. Stay true to who you are and express what ever the fuck you want.

Artwork by me.

It resembles an inflated crown, captured by chains locking it up. There are no kings here.
