A dance mix to contemplate the cyclical nature of life

DANCE THROUGH THE RING OF LIGHT MIX

An original composition by Mimi Xu
Big love to Kylie Minogue, Rose Byrne, Thelma Plum, Naomi Watts and Sophie Lee for sharing their magical whisper of an Australian costal childhood  memory.

Zimmermann SS23 original score

A high energy journey shaping the dance floor on speed.

FORM & CONTENT MIX

The Pina Colada mix is inspired by my love for Tropicália, 60's Brazilian music &  art movement also known as Tropicalismo.  Tropicália was very much influenced by Afro rythmes and psychedelic rock which I extract few elements from, added a sprinkle of disco dust, a hint of cheesy and a squeeze of contemporary sounds. Best to listen to the mix in chilled but ready to dance mode. A cocktail in hand is essential.

Track listing:

Tom Zé "Se"
George Benson "Breezin (Misty Rabbit edit)"
Petite Noir "Noirse"
Letta Mbulu "Kilimanjaro"
Sinkane "Making Time"
Os Mutante "Bat Macumba (Misty Rabbit edit)"
Thomash vs Whitney Houston "I Wanna Dance with Candomble (Dreems & Misty Rabbit remix mash-up)"
Jeri Jeri vs Noze "Bamba Version Amor Do Olinda (Misty Rabbit mash-up)
 


THE PINA COLADA MIX

A Celle Qui est Trop Gaie (Zimmermann Fall 24 show original score)

Dunhill Fall 24 (original score)

Original composition for Johanna Parv SS25 show

"The female commuters cycling through London, juggling backpacks and tote bags stuffed with gym gear, navigating heels in the workplace and flats on the daily grind, and dressing to balance practicality with the polish required of a nine-to-five."

Johanna Parv SS25

Winter No Wonderland

'SĀNSHUǏ  - Three Waters' marks Mimi Xu’s symphonic debut, breaking away from the traditional four-movement structure to explore the essence of water through three distinct movements—Strength, Fluidity, and Depth. As an electronic music composer, Mimi weaves rhythmic intensity with a cinematic symphonic approach, creating a deeply personal tribute to her father, renowned architectural acoustician Albert Xu.  

Premiered on December 7, 2024, at her father’s memorial concert, 'SĀNSHUǏ  - Three Waters'  was performed by the Kaohsiung Symphony Orchestra along with organist prof. Tony Liu, under the direction of Maestro CHIEN Wen-pin. Second movement was joined by Yueqin player Jo Pei Yin. The final movement featured Mimi Xu and her 'Awkward Moments' bandmate, Gillian Maguire, on piano. The concert took place at the National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts-Weiwuying in Taiwan, a concert hall her father passionately designed.
