For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Welcome forth. Step into the light, don’t forget your sunglasses. As we slowly drip back into a new version of this puddle of existence it’s never been more important to check in on at least one version of yourself. This little audio sojourn will bring balance to the chaotic everyday oddities that surround us. Joining us on this decedent descent into deep bliss is Darcy Mahady.

A local young gun from an elite bloodline, his potential is matched by his knowledge, understanding and appreciation of incredible music and the culture that surrounds it. One of the founding members of Upstairs/Downstairs crew, a local party series as well as an incredibly curated mix series that runs parallel. A genuinely nice guy on and off the field, his dedication to detail instills hope for the next generation of music lovers and music makers. 

With an essence of maturity and hints of Weatherall and Drexciya, Darcy has delivered a mix that spans beyond his years. Truly capturing the romance of computer generated courtship and deep-seated digital discourse. With dips and trips in and out of the water, this mix moves like a current in the ocean. Get in and good luck.

SPIRITUAL OBJECTS RADIO EPISODE 12 W/ KALEB MARSHALL

From the new album - 'Sound Postcards from the Centre of the Periphery' by Manja Ristić and Mark Vernon.

We made this 13-track journey around the sounds and sonic histories of the island of Korčula. In addition to our own field recordings, we were given access to the audio archives of the local radio station, including recordings of folk customs, traditional songs, dances and music...

This album unites two specific sensibilities that for many years have been embedded in the domain of sound and radio arts. Although they arose from very different environments, their work explores similar issues around preserving personal sonic histories. By stirring up nostalgia and collective memory, both artists often refer to the importance of individual experiences in the poetic "body" of micro-communities.

The artistic practice of both creators has been deeply immersed in the sonic strata of space and the imaginary narratives that emerge from it. A dedication to the culture of memory, the sounding of lost voices and an unorthodox approach to re-composing the soundscape, conveniently unites these two experimenters in a collaboration that arises from research into one particularly inspiring locality – the island of Korčula.

In addition to their own field recordings the artists were given access to the audio archives of the local radio station, including sounds of local folk customs, traditional songs, festivities and music. The strong anthropological emphasis in this collection of works is intended to encourage a deeper consideration of the coexistence of people and the environment in a historically dense climate. The appropriation of the hidden narratives of a small town on the fringes of the European Union opens up new fields of reflection on identity that looks back at the "center of the periphery", pointing to the importance of "small" spaces in the creation of European heritage.

‘Sound postcards from the center of the periphery’ will be stored permanently in the audio archives of Radio Korčula. Who knows, maybe someone will dig them out in 50 years and say: "...there you go! This will make your head ring!"

Special thanks to Radio Korčula, Gordana Šuperak and Ivan Sardelic Šore. To Pere from the Marasa printing house and to all the fellow citizens of Korčula who found themselves on this album intentionally or accidentally.

From Oakland with love comes the 50th submission in the mix series comes by the hand of prolific producer and deejay Space Ghost (@space-ghost-1). Interview (excerpt) down below.

MFM: Hey Sudi. How's life in California, what's been keeping you busy?

SG: Hey, not much! Just trying to enjoy the summer with friends and get in the studio when I can.

MFM: Looking at your discography it seems that you favor the LP over the EP format, having released well over a dozen albums. How come?

SG: I can’t say that I favor one over the other, just seems that as a musician you strive to write full length LPs. I enjoy LPs for home listening and it feels good to create a nice body of work that flows through a journey. Writing dance singles and eps are trickier for me. It feels harder to write 1-4 really good stand alone songs.

MFM: With such a prolific output, does writing music come easily to you? Can you tell us a bit about how you go about writing and recording, is there a certain flow or method?

SG: Hmm I wouldn’t necessarily say it comes comes easy but I’ve definitely gotten a lot better at getting ideas in my head out into my recordings. It’s still a process of getting into the studio and spending time on it. Sometimes I can spend a whole day or two just spinning my wheels and not being able to get my ideas out. But once I get that perfect dose of creativity and I’m in the right mood, then things can definitely start flowing out. When writing music I often need to start with a very specific idea based on a song I’m listening to at the time. It’s helpful for me to start out with that initial inspiration, whether some chords, style of drums, bassline or a tempo or something. Once I get a few elements working around that idea the song can start to morph and move in any direction, but I really need that specific direction to start. I find that I can often make a rudimentary idea fairly quickly this way and then if it’s inspiring me, I’ll start to try a little bit harder and flush out more of the idea.

MFM: How do you cope with not being inspired or motivated when in the studio?

SG: Honestly it can be a bummer to be in the studio and the ideas aren’t flowing. I’ll just have to step away and do something totally unrelated for a few days.

MFM: Your sound overall has a very soft and melodic touch. The mellow part may be from living close to the Pacific and nature, but where does the melodic part come from? Did you ever learn how to read and play notes?

SG: You know I’m really not sure if I can pinpoint my melodies and where they came from but ya I grew up taking music lessons of all sorts. Piano, drums, guitar, band class, all that stuff. I wasn’t the best at reading music, I learned basic stuff but eventually didn’t progress much farther. Now everything I do is by feel.

MFM: Is there some kind of masterplan for Space Ghost? Like, do you have certain goals to achieve or dreams to chase?

SG: I think my master plan would involve me getting to focus on writing music full time. Honestly I’m not really sure how to get there specifically, seems like everyone gets there on their own path so hopefully mine will end up there as well.

MFM: Tell us about the mix. How did you go about selecting and recording it? Does it have a certain theme or idea to it?

SG: I’ve been wanting to put out a nice lil ambient sort of electronic mix for awhile. Really soft deep introspective vibes. I’ve been holding on to a lot of these tunes for awhile and just listening to my playlist of ambient tunes while traveling or relaxing with friends. After coming back from my NZ/Australian tour, I was ready to play some non dance music for a sec and listen to some other stuff. This mix is just a nice break from DJing a party. I also really want to make an ambient album soon if I have the time, so there are a lot inspirations in this mix.

Find serenity and stillness while listening to this gorgeous mix by local music curator and DJ Montana for the opening episode of Personal Space on RTR2. 

"I respond to music the same way in which I respond to the world around me. It’s grounding, at times all encompassing, ever-present, comforting & beautiful. When life feels turbulent I crave the softness of music that much more. Entering into the cooler days of the year, where the sun peeks out in the garden and I feel it’s warmth like a longing hug. The crisp slow mornings finding solace in the peace. This mix is the soundtrack to enjoying those moments in between life".

Personal Space Ep. 1 w/ Montana

✨ MIRAGE OF THE MEDINA  
Step into the mysticism of Morocco, where desert winds meet lantern-lit alleys. “Mirage of the Medina” blends non-lexical Sufi-inspired chants, whispered Arabic blessings (qalb = heart, ruh = spirit, layl = night), and layered group hums with oud arpeggios, darbuka grooves, ney flute sighs, and brass bowl resonance. 

This session is rooted in Maghreb ritual sound — where the medina’s tiled courtyards, incense smoke, and moonlit dunes carry centuries of music, memory, and spirit. Designed for warm nights, deep listening, and trance-like wanderings.

▸ REGION: Morocco / Maghreb — Sufi chants, Berber echoes, medina rituals  
▸ VOCALS: nonverbal Sufi-style chants, whispered tokens, desert wind hums  
▸ INSTRUMENTS: oud, darbuka, riq, ney flute, handclaps, brass bowl, wind FX  
▸ MOOD: hypnotic • sultry • lantern-lit trance
