Description: smittness is a troubadour and producer with a particular interest in experimenting with a small-scale pipe organ. For her Kiosk premiere, she is welcoming the rainy days with a blend of rigid rhythms, minimalist textures, reverberated vocals, and occasional folk excursions.

THE MUSIC
This set is a whole new vibe for me. Most of my performances are specifically for the club, so fall into that 127-135 kind of tempo. I recorded this set over a year into lockdown, and was very disconnected from sound systems at the time, struggling with my relationship with club music and dancefloors. This set reflects that mindset, at a faster tempo than I've ever worked at before (158!), yet with more of an at-home listening vibe than a dancefloor feeling. While exploring this new tempo, I was thinking deeply about our interconnectedness and capacity for growth and change. We lost Andrew Smith two days before I performed this set, and his presence is felt throughout the recording. 

track listing:
1. Radiance (for Andrew)
2. Nucleation
3. Scattering
4. Reduced
5. Semblance *
6. Cracked
7. Precipice
8. Constellated

* Semblance is a live version of a remix of Headless Horseman
everything else is written by me


THE GEAR
My live show is usually given on a stage, away from my home, so I use a carefully chosen selection of equipment that fits into an airplane. Typically, I perform with a sequencer, drum machine, 4 synthesizers, and 2-3 effects pedals. Recording a live set in my studio made it possible to use as many instruments as I have inputs, so I brought as much variety as I could to this set. While some of this gear is used throughout the set (say, the 808 BD), some of it only appears in a single track (like the Deckard's Dream). Here's the complete list of what I used to make the set.

(Verse 1)
 Lights flicker, neon haze, Lost in the city maze, Footsteps echo, hearts collide, Running fast, nowhere to hide.
  
(Pre-Chorus)
 I hear the rhythm of the streets, A thousand voices, endless beats, But I dream of open skies, Not these walls, not these ties.
(Chorus)
 Escape the concrete jungle, Feel the wind beneath my soul, Let the city fade behind me, I’m breaking free, I’m taking control.
(Verse 2)
 Steel towers, shadows tall, Trapped inside this urban sprawl, Midnight whispers call my name, But I won’t play this losing game.
(Bridge)
 One step closer, feel the light, Chasing dreams, taking flight, Leave behind the grey and cold, Find a place where I unfold.
(Outro)
 Escape the concrete jungle, No more chains, no more pain, Through the fire, through the night, I’ll find my way, I’ll be alright.
I’ll be alright.

Escape the concrete jungle
