For our 32nd Generic Mix we’ve been treated by San Francisco based artist and filmmaker Lara Sarkissian to an extra special mix transversing some bold and beautiful sounds. 

Lara’s been one of the most exciting DJs on our radar for quite some time and has recently done mixes on radio for NTS and Club Chai with some more exciting radio appearances coming up very soon. 

It’s hard to predict what a Foozool mix is going to sound like before hearing it as she completely eschews the template of what a DJ should sound like: switching up repetitive four to the floor rhythms coming from the established centres of dance music for a far more diverse selection of tracks from across the world and the internet. Instead of telling you what to expect from this one it’s best if you press play, close your eyes and keep your eyes, ears and hearts open.

The artwork for Foozool’s mix comes from Generic Greetings perennially astonishing Lulu Heal who worked in collaboration with Lara to create imagery inspired by Armenian folk dancing. Check out more of her work at: http://luluheal.co.uk/

FACT mix 671 - FOOZOOL (Sept '18)

Armenian-American Lara Sarkissian is a sound design artist, film composer, DJ and producer. In her home city of San Francisco, Sarkissian is one of the founders of Club Chai alongside 8ULENTINA - a curatorial project, label and monthly radio show which began in 2016, and focuses on the artistic hybridization of non-western sounds with contemporary western culture. Under her own name, Sarkissian’s music focuses on original productions and sound collage techniques to document the emotive, tragic histories of Armenia and its music – from folk dance to classical, revolutionary to religious – with her own field recordings and sampling of online material and traditional Armenian wind, string and percussive instruments. As part of Club Chai, Sarkissian goes by the artist name FOOZOOL, producing forward-thinking club-focused edits and remixes and working to build a platform for people to tell their non western stories and diaspora identities through sounds and multimedia. As a sound design artist, she’s worked with film laboratories at TUMO Center for Creative Technologies in Yerevan, Armenia and Stepanakert, Nagorno-Karabakh, producing several sound and film projects focused on local youth. “Film work has always had a relationship and inspiration to my music production,” she says. “I’ve never seen them as separate. In sound, I usually work with having a visual scene in my mind and building with the action, feelings, and plot from that - a clash of tempos and textures, just like how a visual would feel.”

Originally broadcast on redbullradio.com on March 7th 2017. Choice Mix is Red Bull Radio’s home for mixes from some of the world’s most forward-thinking DJs. Unconstrained by location or genre, each Choice Mix spotlights a unique artist from the global underground whose style is pushing music forward. 

Engineered by Joe Hazan and Ryan Woodhall

ڭليثر GLITTER ٥٥ Atay Time Takeover : Lara Sarkissian - 21 Novembre 2020

https://www.nts.live/shows/guests/episodes/lara-sarkissian-lucia-kagramanyan-special-23rd-november-2020

Our debut Armenian duo show w/ Lara Sarkissian aired on NTS Radio. We feature our Armenian & Artsakhian favorites, along with some trip hop, electronica and classical. Lara takes over the first 30 minutes and I continue with the second half an hour.
We made this show united in our continuously changing perceptions of the current horror that was happening and still continues to happen in Artsakh. Full of grief and reminiscing, we get you through our emotions which we share as a community, a nation as a whole, still celebrating the eternal beauty of our musical heritage that should keep us afloat.

Armenia&Artsakh are still in need of humanitarian help, please consider donating to parosfoundation.org.
