Fact Mix 871: MOBBS (Aug '22)

Berlin-based Ukrainian DJ and producer MIURA steps up for the next Lobster Theremin mix with an hour of groove-heavy house, acid and groove-heavy old school sounds.

Having worked as creative director and booker for the Kyiv venue duo Vognyk Bar/Arsenal XXII, MIURA transposed her life to Berlin following the devastating Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

Now working on music full time, and with a scintillating HÖR radio set under her belt, here she presents the essence and beauty of her sound as a selector and DJ. A one hour expression of pure love and a story of inner feelings.

Juanita's Mix 096 with Kia @kia-sydney

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. easily distracted, busy bee, passionate, nomadic, pensive.. :)

Q. What was your last memorable club night in NYC?
A. nowadays nonstop in may was epic.. that room is honestly the dream in the right context. the lighting and sound is so on point and the energy during my set time was so infectious (I played 3.30-6am before the legend PLO man). also special shout-out to groovy groovy which i played in july :) DIY parties are always extra special when done right

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. this is a very honest/ sombre personal diary I’ve been compiling all year. it’s almost for me the musical embodiment of an infinite plane ride.. watching the sun rise and then set and then rise again. also an ode to all the new & old people that were in my life this year.

this year brought lots of purgatory moments, lots of solo transit.. times of isolation and change, also new friends, positive growth, and people coming into my life… so I guess it’s supposed to represent the ups and downs, change and the journey,

I was struggling to finish the mix and it was sitting at 80% complete for the last little while but I feel like the current situation in Palestine </3 really inspired the missing pieces of the mix. for me, I use music and storytelling as an outlet for frustration and emotion generally. lots of old classics in this and pensive moments.. hope the listeners can feel some of that emotion through listening too..

A. Since 2019

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.

Juanita's Mix 099 with Jan Woo @jawnethon

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. Im a lover of mushrooms, plants, rocks, animals (and also, all their medicines), animism, yoga, farmers markets, poetry, resistance, mutual education, land back, shamxnism/transformation, tribal music, folk music, all music and cats. I like making lists and they're usually too long lol

Q. How long have you been a part of the NY music scene?  
A. Ive been in NYC for 16 years 🙈 I used to do events for years and stopped due to exhaustion (and probably inexperience). Thinking of getting back into it in a fuck capitalism kinda way due to recent events 

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I randomly started this playlist like a year ago with Matthew Herbert "Nine Seeds of Navdanya", Donato Dozzy "AA Side - Original Mix", Xcor "Translation" and Lucy "Meetings with Remarkable Entities" and added a track+ every month or so.  I tend to start journey mix ideas with four or five tracks that give vibe, and go from there. Id say most of these tracks live in the pan shamxnistic "techno" folder in my brain, but also give me "angelic", "enlightenment", and "animism".

Juanita's Mix 100 with Ciel @ciel_dj

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. a music maker with too much sincerity and a passion for sampling, film, and leftist politics

Q. What drew you to the music scene in the beginning and where do you hope to see it in the future?
A. Looking back at my life, I think everything from my birth led me on this path towards music. It was my first love. But as an only child, my experience with music growing up was always very solitary. I yearned to be part of a community radio station with Iikeminded music nerds, and it was working for a radio station eventually during my undergraduate that brought me toward DJing and rave culture. Back then I never thought I could do this full time, but once I got the chance to make a living doing this, I realized the scene was far from perfect, in fact it's very exploitative. I hope in the future we can find a way to fairly compensate music makers for the incredible gift of music they bestow upon the world, without becoming beholden to corrupt corporate & military interests. Artists can be hyper individualistic and self-interested, and I hope we can get better at looking out for each other instead of just our own paycheques.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I wanted to present a different side of myself to international audiences on such a wonderful mix platform. Perhaps people outside of my home city of Toronto are less familiar with my downtempo sets, but it's been a significant part of my wheelhouse for years, and have gained even wider affection from me since I started doing a downtempo party in Toronto last year. Like I always say, 80-100bpm is the most natural tempo for extended human body movements. I also liked the idea of doing a mix that doesn't build in a predictable way, instead it waxes and wanes like the natural rhythm of life. So many of my favourite mixes build and release tension in a way that's very satisfying to listen to, the sounds intensify to a frenzy before disintegrating into nothingness. I wanted to play with that rise and fall and mix downtempo and dub with double time d&b in a non-linear way that is evocative of our most precious memories and tells stories we've only seen in dreams. Downtempo and dub also seemed like the perfect genres to play in the 100th mix for Juanita's, and in the lead up to my fav April holiday. :) I hope the listeners enjoy it.
