Achilles - Erin Marcellina Rough Draft - BLG RECORDS

From James:  "This mix covers quite a range of styles, from challenging to pleasant, mostly instrumental, but with a few songs to add variety. It is almost entirely Canadian or connected, with only one from "outside", and includes many personal friends."

He is honoured to have been asked to curate this playlist for the Music  Gallery, an institution he has been attending since its earliest days.

From baby mmune: This mix is "A love letter to the African underground with a few blessings from outside the continent too. Mixed by baby mmune on behalf of TTYL collective."

baby mmune is a DJ, a maker of spaces, an MC and sort of a graphic designer. Along with his musical twin and DJ idol, Adeola, he co-founded TTYL - a party series dedicated to pushing untapped Nigerian, African and Black music for bad bitches to dance to. He believes the club is a space for real freedom and if you allow bass to hit you in your chest, it will liberate you.

From Del: "thought deeply about
total feeling evidancing
no theorized thing
so hear, today, and now
for those who do
you can

expect to find
believed in like good shoe
on holi and any day
stay lost

get laughters, tears, and movimento
a foto only felt
disc-shaped and flew
my close encounters
with music."
