Very proud to have @whysufar on the 27th Selects. Part of the inimitable Translate crew of whom created some literal pillars of Eora/Sydney scene in the form of a sound system and who constantly impress with their events - Sufar has kindly shared this delicate, deep and bubbling warm up set for Donato Dozzy at the Strange Signals after party at a warehouse earlier this year. A beautiful trip of a mix that demonstrates Sufars strong knowledge of not only how the speakers work but what should be coming out of them..

Love Is The Message - Pete Beluga For MIMI
@petebeluga

On the last day of 2023, it is a real pleasure to share the second release in this new series: under the title 'Love Is The Message', Amsterdam-based DJ and selector Pete Beluga invites you to just over an hour of warm, blissed out and soulful selections. A new sonic direction after our first release, expect 80s-influenced electronics, pop, house and disco traces, a few soothing acid-synths, and vocals swirling through. With tracks by Daniele Dibenedetto, match 99 and Statues. This is just a glimpse into the musical universe of someone known to be able to spin sets of many many hours.

Always full of energy and love for the power of music and sharing it, Pete Beluga knows how to lead dancefloors and chillouts through a rich archive of vinyl. Music that can heal you, lift you up and make you wonder about things in life (and love).

I started listening to ambient music properly during lockdown as a way of trying to heal from heartbreak as well as a coping mechanism to deal with what was going on around the world. I was pulling together playlists of tracks that made my heart sing or weep, to soundtrack my daily walks around the canals of berlin or the quiet residential area where i grew up and ended up moving back to. These playlists were the start of the sounds of healing series and my journey of digging deeper into ambient soundscapes via my refuge worldwide residency. It’s a genre that I probably would say I have the biggest emotional connection to right now, in the way that it has helped me through some really difficult times in the last four years. So it was an honour to bring this to the club space for the first time for playbody 002, a party run by some of my wonderful  friends. Sounds of healing vol. 5 is a glimpse of what I played during that after hours set, in what became one of the most beautiful settings with the lights dimmed, a candlelight by the decks, people curled up with each other on various platforms, kissing, or deep in conversation. It was touching to witness people have the same emotional reaction to the music as me; people coming up and saying how a track or artist had saved their life or that they just wanted to have this personal moment with the music, away from the conversation. It was deeply vulnerable to play some of these tracks to a group of people, some being strangers but it very much aligns with the journey I’ve been on recently. And with this mix, I’m not only sharing that moment with you but I’m bottling up this feeling and keeping it close to me forever.

For the eleventh installment of New Palm’s semi-seasonal mix series, we gladly welcome back our resident agraybé with a distinctly memorable live recording from our collaborative Gradient Campout in the high desert with our homies eternal, PrintShop

Ariana has consistently proven to step up to every occasion exceedingly well, meeting the moment with an astute sense for what needs to happen next. We’ve loved hearing her define and diversify this ability further over the years, showing equal mastery over the moments of holding back, and the moments of letting it rip.

This time it was the latter, playing to the desert moonrise at the ramp up hours of a marathon  weekend, Ariana lit the fire so it’d burn all night. We loved every second of her psychedelically gripping lunar joyride, and we’re thrilled to share it here. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do 🌑

New Palm 11: agraybé

Here comes mix number 12 in the series, kindly contributed by our long time dear friend Suso Sáiz (@saizsuso) who gave it the title 'Oat Flakes Falling In My Carpet At Sunset - Japanese Ambient 1'. Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com 

MFM: Hi Suso. You live in central Spain, right? How important is living there for you and your music?

S: I live in a little town not far away from Madrid. It’s very quiet and I’m in contact with nature. I feel good in the place where I live. My choice to live there is not arbitrary as I need peace and silence to work and this place meets all the conditions.

MFM: In 2019 we happily received and released your latest album Nothing is Objective where in the liner notes you say you never listen back to a finished piece of music. Why is that? Isn't that an important part of learning and progress?

S: Usually, I’m not so interested in the past. I prefer to live present time as deeply as possible and sometimes, to dream in the future as the child I was. Listening to my own work tends to be self-destructive as I’am aware of glitches that grow up as time goes by. Meanwhile, my pieces begin to move away from reality. My intention is to evolve continuously. I spend a long time working in them as to allow my “new self” (that appears as a result of my evolution) to destroy them.

MFM: Do you actively look for and listen to other people's music though? 

S: I’m a melomaniac before a musician. Listening to music is one of my greatest pleasures as well as an endless source of knowledge. My listening is very eclectic. You can find my inspiration in music and musicians as Miles Davis, Steve Reich, Ralph Towner, King Crimson, Mahler, African and Indonesian ethnic music, etc.  

MFM: Do you visualize an idea for a piece of music before you start writing it? Could give a bit insight in how you normally get to write a piece?

S: Musically, I always start with something that I hear inside my head: I cannot specify what it is. That’s the reason why I begin an experimental process that finishes when I synchronize what I hear inside me with the sounds I make.

MFM: Is there such a thing as a Suso state of being when writing music, to get to that "ingravidez"?

S: I usually work alone and at daytime. I try to use the night to sleep. My studio is a cozy place, where peace and quiet are essential to make my work. The “ingravidez” I talk about, is a result of the sound not of a state of mind. I try to set up sound capsules that generate such “ingravidez”, regardless of other conditions. 

MFM: You speak of music as being very spiritual, something that connects to the soul and transcends it's structures and textures. Has your disease played a role in this or did you always approach it that way? 

S: I have always tried to search my deepest self with my music. It’s possible that you find spirituality in that search. Things have not changed with my disease. 

MFM: About your last album you said “It is the most honest album that I have written in a long time. I feel it is honest with myself, as I feel a deep sense of acceptance with who I am and with what I do.” What did this do with your thoughts on any next project? Do you now maybe have a different view concerning collaborations vs. solo works? 

S: I try to make each work unique and although it belongs to a same lifeline, it’s not necessary that they refer to the same things. Obviously, if you collaborate with other artists your point of view changes as it goes through other person filter and your reactions will be upon impulses not generated by yourself. I always try that honesty is a constant that never should disappear from my music. I always try to sound as I am. Actually my intention is not to go to a fancy dress ball, although..”never say never again”..
