Introspective Electronics w/ Avsluta b2b Freddie Hudson | October 21

For the extended Q&A... please visit our website -----> pipipi.life <-------

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Hello, I’m James Baangura and I currently reside in Washington D.C.

Describe your ideal music listening situation for digging…

For digital digging, my ideal listening environment is early morning in my living room at home while drinking ginger tea. For Vinyl, I like to go on off days to my favorite local shops when there is not a great deal of foot traffic.It gives me the sense of not having to rush any selections.

How do you deal with being nervous before a gig? 

DJing for me is a form of communication. So for me I like to come to gigs early and talk with people in the crowd, learn about them and who they are. That’s important to me, it’s like sharing a meal and talking over delicious food.

Favorite thing to cook? 

I love to bake chicken and add asparagus and basmati rice. Very simple but very versatile. You can do so many things with that combination and it’s affordable haha.

Favorite DJ mixing trick? 

I love to use filter and echo FX in unison for transitions. It’s a way to make false buildups that aren’t already present in a track. Looping vocals or melodies over other tracks is something I like to do for on the spot edits.

What color would you pick to represent the way you produce? 

Clay(Red+Brown) I love warmth in music.If it can feel a bit cozy then it’s an automatic yes for me.

Listen to 11:11 in your PI mix… describe how it makes you feel?

Oh I love this blend. It makes me feel like I'm at a tribal celebration. 

When I was in the military I was fortunate enough to participate in tribal celebrations in Northern Afghanistan and to witness that first hand was sobering. Tribalism is such a raw human experience.

Any advice to upcoming DJs/producers? 

Continue to be you. No need to replicate what anyone else has done. Push yourself in your craft. There is no such thing as a bad question, if you don’t know, ask. Also reaching out to artists you respect for guidance is a good thing. More often that not they’ll you. Make music with friends, you’ll learn much quicker. Finally, make sure it remains fun. If you lose that, re-asses and determine how you can regain that.

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

I’d love to see more infrastructure for North American Dance music. The community is there but the spaces are minimal. So more nightclubs, more underground radio platforms, more publications, more curated festivals. North America now is taking up a bigger part of the conversation because of the last few years and I love that. I hope to see a definitive increase in the next few years.

Oscura Resistencia falls in love with stateless and orphaned pieces, discreetly weaving a web that encompasses downtempo, synth-pop, dub, cosmic-disco, spoken word, alternative melodies, and other psychedelic drifts. 

She also delves into darker realms of post-punk, cold-wave, or krautrock. Twilight ballads, misty mornings, or sun-drenched afternoons: Oscura Resistencia offers contrasting and captivating musical landscapes in her selections.

SHAPE/SHIFT w/ Slowglide (02/01/24)

The mix contains Latvian and Lithuanian underground artists from mid-80's to present day engaging in dreamy/psychedelic moods. The sounds range from breezy avantpop to radiophonic psychedelia to lofi folk or winterish ambience.

It's the dreamy sonic roaming across the concrete Vilnius or Riga suburbs at twilight, it's approaching the Baltic sea by walking across the railway. 

Greatly inspired by homesickness in Amsterdam and a few dreams of my home places.
