in the mix (live mixes // guestmixes)

thump jazz represents a crystallization of my sound as a blossoming artist. I've poured over the technicals of mixing and strived to build something unique and fresh. 

the result is soulful elements driven by heavy kicks and thick basslines. Something to chill or groove to. I hope you enjoy the next installment of my production journey.

thump jazz

I wanted to make something a bit dirtier on this track. Let me know what you think! 

Definitely listen with headphones

I’ve been mixing for a few days (still very beginner) but only one way to get better, which is practice! This is the first set I’ve recorded though, and I wanted to make sure I took the feedback from family and friends into account while mixing.

First, I wanted to focus on music continuity and vibe. Yesterday I had too many disparate tracks. Even though I don't prepare for these, I can still cue the songs and listen to them to see if they match. 

Second, I wanted to let the tracks breathe. Yesterday I switched too quickly and didn't let you feel each song and enjoy them. So today I emphasized letting the tracks ride while also trying to let them mash together as opposed to just fading in and out. 

 I don't expect perfection in any mix so my goal as a beginner is always improve with each recorded set. I also want to be free to experiment with sounds as I like them so expect some wonky transitions or odd bits here and there. It's all an adventure. I hope you like this one!

radio plata episode 2

our journey takes us back in time
to familiar yet reimagined sounds
let us boogie in this wonderland

just a lil boogie

you close your eyes and find yourself in a canyon
you are asleep yet awake 
a stream trickles near by
you are surrounded by trees
the wind rushes through the canopy
something scurries in a bush

it is cold and yet you are warm
the stars shine only to be obscured by fast moving clouds
dark and grey
the full moon illuminates your vision
it is the dark of night
it is just you and only you
and yet we are together as one
walking in the woods to slow down time


the land is familiar 
and yet it is a mystery
you are at home 
but you have a longing for something you can't put your finger on

you open your eyes
the dream is over
it is day
and you are left with nothing but your memory
which fades rapidly as the sun rises on the horizon

arnald palmer

walk in the woods

near the entrance we meet a being
it is not human yet feels humanoid
it is clearly machine
we cannot tell its demeanor but it feels ominous 
ominous and yet not hostile
a peculiar being this entity
this bad hombre

radio plata episode 3

Welcome back to The Chapel.

This is Minister M and you are with us for the first installment of 2025! I am excited to partner up with a California neighbor and bring you a full 70 minutes of Minimal / Deep Tech, House, & Deep House to start your year right. Additionally, California is under serious fire conditions causing destruction across concentrated areas. The artist ahead is raising awareness and funds through the following - any support is appreciated: https://www.instagram.com/thelamission?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D

Let's learn a little about our guest…

- "hombre plata is a LA Native with a deep appreciation for all genres of music. From the womb to his adult life he’s been surrounded by music. 

He fell asleep to classic masters as an infant and toddler, then played flute for multiple years as a child into his early teens. His parents quizzed him on classic rock artists, and his grandparents opened his world to jazz. He discovered an affinity for house music during his time both in and after university. Now, he’s set out on his own journey to craft and mix sounds into electronic arrangements that tantalize the eardrums. 

While still exploring his artistic style, he’s committed to showcasing his journey with friends, family, and fans who appreciate his honest approach to production. He remains committed and true to himself, foregoing the need to submit his music to labels to pursue his own sound that he hopes people around the world will listen to and enjoy. And, while dreams of label acquisition are certainly on his mind, he hopes that they will come naturally and unforced. Crafting a unique sound that sets him apart from other producers and takes his listeners on a journey is at the forefront of his mission. 

His albums and EPs represent an ode to yesteryears, where concept albums and artistic vision shine thru in an age dominated by simple singles and fast content."

Listen to the sound of the skater as he rides over undulating hills, the wheels on his board roll over cracks in the walk. a rolling motifs is created with circular synths. the landscape is a deconstructed chord progression slowly and methodically becoming more complete as the song progresses, until finally he is racing down hills. Coast and away we go!

i organize my music not into "playlists" or genres but vibelists. these crates can span genres, keys, and bpm. if you follow my spotify, you've probably seen these vibelists at the bottom of my profile. each one matches a feeling, a mood, and an experience. in the same night you can be in a jazz club in hollywoood followed by a groovy underground house party until the sun comes up over the LA river. you can go camping over the weekend nestled in canyons beneath sycamore cheers a hop skip and jump from the beach, and you can run to the market if you need extra firewood. 

growing up in california, especially los angeles helped me understand the dichotomy of positive and negative- the yin and yang of the universe. affluent neighborhoods minutes (without traffic) from lower income residents, everyone blending across the whole space.

la gets a bad rap, but as a native i've seen a side of this city and this state unlike what the media portrays. people from all backgrounds working, living, and playing in a beautiful fabric of sprawling city juxtaposed by sweeping vistas of mountains and the pacific ocean. of course all this beauty and positivity is constantly shadowed by the threat of devastating wildfires. but to fear will render us static, and while this constant danger looms we can revel in the natural beauty of this place. 

politics and forest management aside, these natural spaces of california and los angeles are unique. its a challenge to clear brush and plant matter because these plants have adapted to this climate long before we were here and unfortunately centuries of human migration have also brought invasive species that created the landscapes tapestry. It may not look like much, but the dense chaparral of southern california is beautiful and full of life. Rich smells of sage and pine fill the air, and in the early hours of the morning the silence in these natural spaces is a stark contrast from the busy city life just hours from rising. 

its these mountains, bluffs, canyons and natural areas that inspired my vibelist "the wilds". this mood is defined by heady synths, jazzy grooves, and a blend of progressive, minimal, and house subgenres. this special edition of radio plata represents my homage to california and to my home los angeles. i hoped to embody the yin and yang of this incredible place by blending euphoric soundscapes with deep, introspective rhythms. step into the shoes of an angeleno and experience a vibrant blend of house music that i feel captures the essence of what it means to love and appreciate this place.

The Bump
It slithers in slow.
Heavy-lidded, grinning—
a creature of smoke and bass.
Hypnotic in its rhythm,
haunting in its echo,
hunting with every throb of bass.
You don’t dance to it.
You answer it.

primal signals ep

the bump

Drift through the haze of a midnight groove with a track restrained, rhythmic, and wrapped in velvet tension.
A hypnotic pulse built for deep rooms and deeper moments.

A howl in the circuitry.
Rusted rhythms twist through smoke and steel.
This isn’t a track — it’s a signal from the edge.
For the ones who dance in the ruins.

howler

Deep in a forest fraying at the edges of reality,
where static clings to the trees and echoes don't return,
“Wendingo” stirs —
a ritual stitched in distortion, glitch, and bone-rattling bass.

wendingo

A vision carved in fog.
Each rhythm is a riddle, each break a breath held in ritual.

false prophet

an easy listening mix of lounge house and jazzy house. perfect for background music at your summer event

lounge sampler

Empty floor at dusk—
a lone kick drum starts to speak.
The body decides.

what i want ep

groove it (or lose it)

Chrome echoes drift slow,
engines hum in empty space—
thought dissolves to dust.
