Id please! This my favourite track at the moment. Thankyou!

Ilias Pitsios, the mastermind behind ‘Into The Light’ records, has had the scene on ice for a number of years now. Recent excursions for NTS, Pacific Rhythm and Sanpo Disco are top of my essential listening list. After various late-night chats and juicy tips, a perfect fusion of sleazy dancehall hits and ballads landed on my doorstep. Suffice to say I was psyched. 

Ideal for a midday revival, afters wind-down or whenever, it’s that tight.

"A mellow mix of some of my Canadian faves, reggae, hip hop, chill out, r’n’b, plus Kashif and Richard H. Kirk! Still haven’t left Toronto in almost 2 years and haven’t been DJing much, so I’m a little rusty. Lots of chess, skateboarding and gardening lately. Hanging out with the possum that moved into my backyard. Miss my friends, crews, record shops and fave clubs in other cities!" - @invisible-city

Pour le nouvel épisode de Bizarre Love, Colin se penche sur le bruit de fond du millenium, qui, des salons de bronzage aux sofas des boutiques hôtels, des cabines d’essayages aux sushi bar des zones d’embarquement résonnait pour envahir tout notre espace sonore.

Sur fond de mondialisation, cette musique anonyme et climatisée pour galeries marchandes s'est imposée un temps, comme l’habillage sonore de nos vies en susurrant, ici et nulle part, un bien-être illusoire.

Bizarre Lounge pose un regard curieux et décalé sur cet impensé musical. 
Sur ces artistes dont on ne connaissait pas le nom alors que revenaient en boucle ceux des séries de compilations à l'ésotérisme ou au chic bon marché.

Avant le before mais après l'after, un paradis artificiel -ultra safe- au prix d’un cocktail dans Le Marais.

I got to know Laurel (@silver-side-pony) via the growing bin website. Always loved their picks from the bin and so I got curious. Then I heard one of Laurels mixes and was sold. I am superhappy to share this almost 4 hour long sandwich with you... now handing over the keyboard. 
"Laurel hails from the rural North Island (Te Ika-a-Māui) of Aotearoa, New Zealand. They enjoyed a few years observing Pōneke (Wellington)’s rambunctious and delightfully strange music scene at venues like Puppies and the revered Camp a Low Hum, before moving to Berlin.
This mix is the result of many quiet lockdown nights trawling bandcamp, deep dives into the (Growing) Bin, and excavating their record collection. Winding in and out of new music and old gems over 3.5 hours, the mix reflects their unease and excitement of heading back to parties after a long break. Laurel made sure to include some old well-trodden favourites, doing a big middle finger to the pressure to play new and “rare” tracks at every single outing.
Big shout outs go to Eyeliner (@disasterradio), Tania (@taniajust), Castro & Nemo (@sound-metaphors), Cáit (@caitfa), and Stella (@stella-zekri-ouiddir) for inspiration." 
Thanks a TON for this yummy mix Laurel!!

First up in 2023 is Los Angeles based Juan Izguerra (@juanizguerra) who runs his residencies at Dublab and Homage Brewing. Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Hi Juan, welcome to the series. You're based in Los Angeles, right? Can you tell a bit about what keeps you busy? 

JI: Hey there! Super stoked to contribute. Well, I was born in Pomona, California and I started DJing about six years ago. I recently found myself as the event coordinator at Homage Brewing in 2021 and It’s been a great experience to be on both sides… I love being able to DJ at some of my favorite parties, and then host locals and out of town friends at my own events with Homage. My girlfriend and I made the move to LA in the summer of 2020. Early on in the pandemic rent was pretty much the same in Pomona as it was in LA so we thought we’d just live in the city. When clubs/bars opened up again I got involved with Homage. Since then I’ve been able to host parties at our space and focus on bringing people together for the music. 

MFM: What triggered you to initially get interested and involved in buying and playing records?  

JI: I’ve collected records since my teens but it wasn’t until I was 20 that I met one of my now super close friends Josh da Costa (Confusing Mix on NTS) who put me onto crazy records he found during his time living and touring in Europe. He showed me things like Roberto Musci, Thomas Leer, The Antennas, Cherry Red records, and weird compilations. Hearing things like that made me so curious. I saw Josh DJ one day and I was fascinated with how he made people dance. It made me want to learn how to do that! 

MFM: Nice. Did you have any other role models you felt inspired and motivated by?

JI: Definitely. My friends Josh (who I mentioned), Jimi Hey, and Shags Chamberlain were an early influence on me. They toured all over the world and would come home with bags of records, share their discoveries, and give a story about where they found it. I saw that as a way to connect with people and It inspired me to travel and want to find things of my own to share. As I got more curious on the DJ’ing side of things, I definitely got a lot of inspiration from my good friend Bianca Lexis. She’s one of my favorite DJ’s!

MFM: You've done quite some traveling yourself too, within the US but also intercontinental. How is LA nightlife compared to some other places you've been? What's the LA style?

JI: LA’s nightlife definitely needs some work. In New York, Europe, and Mexico City, there’s an audience for every genre and a club for it as well. I think that’s what we struggle with most. People have to resort to attending warehouse parties which involve a lot of financial strain on the organizers. Still, we do have a lot of people putting together great parties here such as Third Place and Moony Habits. Lots of great house/outdoor parties which are really fun and unique to LA. 

MFM: Where and how do you go finding new records and music? Do you have your secret or not so secret methods?   

JI: When it comes down to record shopping I typically like to leave LA. Visiting suburban areas is where I get the most luck. Something about those areas feels more zen since it’s less competitive. It puts me in a mental space where I’m able to focus on looking through records thoroughly. 

MFM: Looking forward to anything specific in '23? Any future plans you'd like to share maybe? 

JI: I’ll be visiting Tokyo for the first time in May so I’m super psyched about that. Also planning to be in Europe in August/September so I'm looking forward to setting up some gigs there!

MFM: Tell us about your mix! How did you approach selecting and recording it?

JI: I wanted to make it a bit cerebral but still keeping it rhythmic and having plenty of songs with lyrics. It has an ambient start that works into downtempo tracks and slowed down Italian house. Hope everyone enjoys!

"Hello from San Francisco :) this mix is made up of some of our favorite things we've been playing out over the last year or so, plus a few oddballs we've always wanted to share. when we're in the studio i tend to use our dj favs as a sort of production mood board, and these tunes have proven really helpful to help us design sounds for our new music. enjoy!"
