Sanguine Ideas w/ Sanguine - 04.12.22

𓆢 Squid Inc Risotto 𓆢

2 cups arborio rice
1 small onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 bottle dry white wine
1 pint stock (chicken, fish, or vegetable)
1 zucchini, shredded
½ cup pine nuts, lightly toasted
¼ cup chopped fresh mint
½ cup grated parmesan
Salt & pepper
Olive oil

You will notice that this dish does not contain squid, or its ink. 
Squid Inc does eat meat and fish, in small and intentional quantities, but telling you how to cook and serve our mascot felt callous. Our respect for squids is bound to both feelings of awe and of kinship. 

In the kitchen of a house on a coastline, we cook our favorite risotto, fresh and herbaceous with zucchini and mint. The rhythm of cooking risotto works as self-hypnosis. The churning spoon passed between us; the dowsing and ebbing of wine and hot stock, absorbed by the rising, swelling grains; the loud viscosity of melted cheese, glued to the silver walls of the pot. We’ve created a ritual of making this dish together, and on this night, after recording our mix for Secret Sauce, we prepare it for our friends. While clanging pot lits, chopping vegetables, and refilling our wine cups, we wonder about our kin who drift beneath the waves. We imagine a squid glinting in the dimming filtered light, her body a fleck of iridescence in the indigo abyss. 

Pour a generous coating of olive oil in the bottom of a large pot. 
Fry onions and garlic with salt and pepper. When brown, add rice.
Cook rice in olive oil until it toasts to light brown.
Add alternating pours of wine and stock, stirring continuously. Continue until the rice is soft, about 40 minutes. 
Add the shredded zucchini, continue to stir for 5 more minutes.
Add shredded cheese, fresh mint, and pine nuts, and stir until incorporated. 
Serve generously. 

Love,

Secret Sauce 13 - Squid Inc

aka-Sol (@acaciabaila) is an Ecuadorian DJ, producer, and multidisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn. Through their Acacia Baila label, they're also a connector: they've released their own tracks and collaborations alongside releases from their friends and community, as well as thrown events at spaces like Mansions and their involvement in the Dripping event series and festival. As a DJ, their sets are genre-defying and psychedelic, bridging the gap between heady, trippy sounds and groove and percussion that go straight to the body. Their mix for us is deftly controlled chaos — a fresh, freaky take on 'fast' that's as floating and expansive as it is frenetic.

"I wanted to create a mix exploring the 150-160 bpm pocket. I feel like I have only landed in playing around these tempos a few times while DJing live, and had definitely not recorded a mix up there before. I was itching to submerge into it after a crucial year in my DJ career, where I have widely expanded the limitations of the things I feel comfortable playing.

It’s been refreshing to understand more and more that I am not an artist/DJ that could be defined by a music genre, but rather by the sensibility in which I lace the different styles and sounds I use to create narratives when constructing my sets. Another important challenge I presented to myself for recording this mix was the curiosity of understanding what kind of tunes I would select and blend for this as a non DnB nor hard techno DJ. I feel like by going through this challenge, I have opened a world of possibilities that I can’t wait to incorporate when playing out there.

In terms of feelings explored, I would say that expansiveness of the body and the mind are a recurrent element in my practice and it was very present in this mix too. I wanted to build something that could feel both complex yet fluid. Entering into deeper introspections while feeling your body being pulled in all possible directions at once until the point of surrendering into a floating state of slow movements is the only possible solution to cope with the amount of information being received.

In terms of gear, I used 2 Pioneer XDJ-700s and a Pioneer DJM 450 mixer. For the recording I use a Zoom H6 recorder."

Known for her beautifully curated and sophisticated sets with an ear for deep, psychedelic, stripped back sounds.

"I remember when I started djing, I kind of steered away from traditional house & techno. I wanted things to be a bit weirder, when I'm djing I want people to listen to me play and kind of wig out a little bit"

Takeover Grid : Ronan - 29 Juin 2023

To say that someone has daddy issues is a somewhat rude and humiliating way of alluding to a very understandable longing for a father who is strong and wise, who is judicious, kind, perhaps at points tough, but always fair, and ultimately always on our side.

It would be so understandable if we were to feel we wanted someone like this in our lives, especially at moments of confusion and chaos.

The longing for a strong father has been a recurring theme throughout history.

We remain a little like the young child we once were and haven't been allowed to mature away from in early childhood. We are all immensely weak and in need of protection.

The paradox of daddy issues is that those who have them are almost always people who didn't have very good fathers.
Perhaps one's father was strong but ultimately cruel, bullying or disinterested.      Perhaps he was more concerned with his work.

A good father doesn't, beyond that age, pretend to be all powerful. They confess they can't solve all our problems and can't magically save us from a myriad of dangers, no matter how much they wish they could.

They try as best they can to help us grow up.

The good Daddy disappoints us just as soon as we're strong enough to bear reality out of love.
They deflate the idea that there could ever be a perfect, ideal Daddy.
