q. is there a story behind the mix? how did it come together?

This mix is a collage of music from my community. It's quite a reflective mix for me, and I chose tracks that I felt held me in a suspended state of thought or existentialism. I think this is a consequence of my difficulties in dealing with changes in my life that I felt not quite ready for. The mix is a way for me to stay a little longer in the place was before.


q. in your opinion, what would be the ideal circumstances to enjoy your mix?

It's good to listen to it alone in headphones, maybe while you walk around your neighbourhood. I would say it will be a bit annoying as background music, and it suits more deep listening. It would be cool to listen to loud in your living room with a couple of close friends too, but it should be people you don’t mind a limited amount of conversation with as there are parts I hope you would zone out together in your thoughts.


q. describe a favourite object in your living room...

I would say my bedroom is more my living room these days as it's the brightest room in my house and it has all my favourite objects in it. It's really hard to say a favourite as my room is made up of little shrine-like clusters of art objects, all of which I love.

Just because it's right here on my desk next to me: This roughly A5-sized wooden board with Green, Orange, Brown, Blue, Black, and Yellow play-dough pressed onto it in a kind of abstract landscape painting by Isaac Rayneau. I really love how you can still see the fingerprints of the artist in the play-dough if you look closely. Over time the play-dough has started to dry out and crack so you can see through to the board behind. The ridges made from the pressing of the fingertips have gathered dust which is impossible to get rid of completely, because of the subtle details like the fingernail crescents and other tiny details that I have become obsessed with preserving, precisely as it was given to me. The artwork has been travelling with me for about 8 years


q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

I am working on some more visual art currently. I was going through pictures from my phone camera taken this year and began turning them into large poster formats. I'm quite a sentimental person as the above might have indicated already so I often do this as a kind of time stamping for myself. It ends up being quite cathartic to produce artwork like this and helps me feel okay to move on in the same way this mix has done for me.

Fifth World w/ Ian Kim Judd on NTS Radio ~ 08.07.23

Purelink have been described more than once as an "ambient boy band." (They themselves say "jam band.") It's not meant dismissively—the American trio purposefully mean to function as a band, even if their main instruments are laptops. Ambient might not quite cut it as a descriptor, though. The group's music crosses eras and scenes, touching on the late '90s clicks & cuts boom as well as the billowy ambient techno put out by labels like 3XL, West Mineral Ltd. and NAFF. 

Their most recent LP, Signs, released on enigmatic imprint Peak Oil (and one of our favourite albums of 2023), is especially impressive, made of stuttering rhythms and glassy textures. In other words, it's ambient-not-ambient. While members Concave Reflection, kindtree and Millia have all made excellent music on their own, something special happens when they come together.

Purelink's RA Podcast is another stellar contribution to our post-New Year's tradition, where we highlight a more laid-back sound to soothe weary minds and frazzled brain cells after the heavy holiday celebrations. This is 90-plus minutes of intricately textured downtempo, dub techno and even UK garage, all cut through with a floaty, almost drowsy quality, with plenty of exclusives and unreleased cuts from the likes of Nick León, James K, Downstairs J and more. It highlights Purelink's position as a bridger of worlds, sounds and tempos.

This track is an ambient version of the track with the same name. It was made to go with a dance performance Yuri Nishi that happened during Recess 3 anniversary in Berlin. As cheesy as it sounds this is illustrating the incontrollable power of strong disorientating feelings through moments of tears, harmony and passion. A lot of these intense emotions came in and out of the making of this one <3
