🗯🗯 Did your approach on creating music change during the pandemic and did it maybe even influence your style? 🗯🗯

In the grand scheme of things, the job is...and always will remain the same. Moving people. However, regarding the delicate balance between head and crotch music, the scales have tipped considerably to the side of cerebral provocation in the absence of the dance floor physicality. This pandemic year has not substantially altered my music collecting or production habits, but has simply re-arranged my moods. Mirroring or channeling prevailing feelings with honesty and authenticity is the name of the game. So. Short answer. A little bit slower, a tad introspective, but always funky. I mean....

🗯🗯 What’s your favorite drink while being behind the decks in the Club? 🗯🗯

Mezcal and lots of water. Sip one, gulp the other. Sometimes switch it up.

🗯🗯 How did you prepare this mix and what was your main inspiration? 🗯🗯

I ALWAYS imagine a friend's face in absolute ecstasy as I play a certain part of certain track. That's the starting point. From there, I free-associate and connect the dots between highs and lows, always imagining that friend in the room. I keep them happy and engaged. For this mix, I thought of my friend Alex in Brooklyn giggling as he sings along to 'Sexy disco, sexy disco, na-na-na!'

Hazy Pockets presents United We Rise Podcast Nr. 073

In one of the most serene and beautiful locations I know, in a nature reserve in Poland near a small town named Garbicz, a thousand people gathered and celebrated a much needed reprieve from the months and months of pandemic lockdown. Surrounded by bright sun, cool trees and fresh lake water, we got to experience what was probably one of the most delightful days of our lives. and I was allowed the privilege of doing the soundtrack from high noon to two, and here it is.

Cansons Musik ist wegen der Einzigartigkeit seiner Sounds schwer einzuordnen und zu beschreiben. Genau deswegen erkennt man ihn nach wenigen Sekunden. Die Mischung zwischen Minimal und sphärischen Klängen verzückt uns. Welcome home Amar!

🍁 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐤𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐦𝐧 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐩𝐞 🍁

I remember one autumn in my life, which was really hard and emotional, because I was far away from home in a foreign country and I did not have time enough to build close relationships with people there, when I lost a friend back home. I was with myself, with the grief in a small room, listening to a lot of music, which had to comfort me instead of a real person, because I was not in the state to really open up to someone there. I was thinking about my friend, that I will never see again, thinking about what I would have done differently, if I would have known, what there was to come, how I would have said goodbye properly, because I didn’t.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗺𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟬 is a lonely one too. A different one for the most of us due to the pandemic, the political developments all over the world, the fear of losing important protagonists and places of cultural life, which are essential for a democracy. There are so many conflicts in society soaking up the vacuum right now. 

𝗜 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗡𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟵𝘁𝗵 after a long walk through my neighborhood and lightening candles to remember this historical date. While I did this, there was another protest going on by right winged people, neonazis and corona deniers not far away from where I live. It was the fourth day of protest and violence in my hometown Leipzig. These last days made me and my close ones shake, because we are in fear for a not peaceful future and for our democracy. 
November 9th is, as I said, a historical date. That day Nazi Germany burned down synagogues in 1938 in the Reichspogromnacht. People were watching or looking away or even took part in it, when their Jewish neighbors got deported and killed and their homes and stores got destroyed. This happened in our streets here. The Stolpersteine tell the story about it. 

It happened, so it can happen again. For me it never felt so close like it does now. I am crying while writing this.

𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵.

Also the German wall fell on November 9th in 1989. The country I was born in, did not exist anymore shortly after this. West and East Germany got reunited. But Germany still feels so divided, even after 31 years, even if the map tells something else. 

All this history and guilt is in us. Most of our parents, grandparents and great-grandparents experienced all this. It is part of us and our culture.

𝗪𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁.

After the incidents of the last days, this is more important than ever.

I am trying to be positive. I really do. But sometimes in nights like this, it is just hard.
We are in a middle of a pandemic. We are trying to keep track, we are online too much, we are trying not to get lost, we are missing our families and friends we cannot be with due to the lockdown.

𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿!

There is a lot of going on in this complex world and my mind is spinning. And like back then, when I was in pain when I lost my friend, I listen to the music that comforts me and I want to share it with you. So I made a spinning sound collage of this November with the themes, that were moving me and I picked some music from back then, when I felt very lonely and some music I used to listen to with my friend in the earlier days, some newer up lightening and melancholic stuff 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘆𝗲𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱, 𝗯𝘆 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗧. 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗲 about where a part of my heart is and will always be – at home at the “Baltique”. 

This is a map to guide you and me a little through this era with an "Autumn Waterkant Quarantine Tape" for mellow. 

𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲. 𝗕𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿.
