Introduce yourself? Hometown? Where do you currently reside? 

Certainly, my name is Iggy, I’ll be clocking 32 years of age in a few months.  Born and Bred in Kansas (physically) & Puerto Rico (spiritually), raised in Florida, and re-residing in Kansas City, MO at the moment.


If you could place a dj booth anywhere in the world… where would it be & what would you play? 

I’m going to need a time machine, but I want to be in a forest in the late Cretaceous period playing Jazz-Funk chillers for the first bees and flowers to ever exist! 

Favorite late night snack? 

(thinking emoji) Tough… A nice bowl of cereal with a minimum of one refill.

Advice to beginning dj’s? 

Do your own thing, play what you love, learn about what you love, be kind to everyone who works with you, be humble, tip well, don’t order the special (it’s mostly leftovers).

Favorite club & why?

The (now-defunct) Emerald Space in Kansas City, MO because it was the real beginning for me and I have got so many fond memories of throwing and playing Botnet (RIP 2008-2010) parties there.  

Let’s play a pipipi game… I give you a word and you give me a track!

Listen to 11:11 in your mix… what color do you see?
Pink

Most underrated artist at the moment? 

Pontiac Streator & Ulla Strauss

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

Stronger DIY presence, better acknowledgement / less erasure of the Latinx histories and contributions to the history of dance musics, deejaying, and the House/Techno music continuum.

Track that makes ya wanna cry? 

LOL, IDK why this popped into my head but I’ll run it -

The area was teeming with hospitable islets of ancient forest, filled with grouping spiral patterns, separated by foamy seas of spongy stone, which, in neat curves, infused their presence into this fortunate flora...The abundance of birds and swirling insects vibrated against of an imperceptibly rising sloping mountain...In the center of which was a gaping crevice, what was giving freedom to the flow of water that was falling into the unknown, hidden green veil...

The sounds of the river, splashed with ecstatic drops...They were together...Slowly moving on their boat in this stream of non-reflective nature, periodically looking into each other's eyes, but without saying a word, in some unknown way, with glances from the outside, they contemplated their incarnations, and, perhaps, saw them for the first time without an illusion...
The waves of time beat against the sides of the boat, leaving small notches, similar to mathematical mandalas, depicting the structure of space - from the electron to the galaxy...

Nature was happy to help them and show where is impulse that forms the experience of a fundamental nature comes from and share this elixir of life...Having drained the cups, the experience of dissolving ego contributed the opportunity to finally turn the vector of attention into direction of higher dimensions...Following comprehension of unite organism, which is in constant transformation, communicating at every moment, the deeply experienced mystery of an unfulfilled future, gives an awareness of responsibility for its fate, cause only by accepting it you can hear this score of the biocosmic symphony...

Juanita's Mix 025 with Mike Servito @mikeservito

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. I've never really been comfortable with Artist or DJ titles or whatever. Perhaps "music obsessed" suits me better. Probably a more fitting description.

Q. How long have you been a part of the NYC music scene?
A. I landed in New York in 2007. I thought that was it. After Detroit, next chapter. In retrospect, I was just on a DJ hiatus. I guess I've been a part of Brooklyn's DJ scene for a little over a decade.

Q. Tell us about this mix.
A. I've been toying with the idea of doing a different kind of mix for a while. Juanita's was the perfect opportunity to showcase a different side. So, thank you. Most people who know me think Acid. House. Techno. Electro. Bangers Only! This mix is not that. I've always been heavily influenced by my 90's upbringing. A musically rich and significant era. The elements of atmosphere, mood, and spirit come into play for this mix. It's a bit nostalgic and sentimental. A one take, vinyl only situation recorded at home just yesterday. A stream of consciousness summer head nod for a rainy day, or a sunny one. Meant to uplift and inspire. It is necessary to keep our optimism and focus up with the music that moves us, and to share that. It is an extension of love and hope in our extreme times. Press play. Turn up. Enjoy.

The third edition of the Exit Planet Earth vinyl series features four more exclusive intergalactic selections from Ralph Lawson. 'Exit Planet Earth - Nitrogen' features a selection of pioneers and up and coming talent. First up is a true legend of the UK electro scene, Keith Tenniswood aka 'Radioactive Man', who creates a constantly evolving sonic trip called 'One Out'. Watch out for the surprise sting in it's tail too. Sharing the A side is the incredibly talented Spanish producer Annie Hall, arriving fresh from her stunning CPU releases. Annie creates melodic landscapes, layered with intricate string orchestration driven by deep bass.A

On the flip side Helsinki-based Sunny Seppa aka Sansibar shows exactly why he is fast becoming hot property following his immense debut album on FTP - 'Targeted Individuals'. Sansibar brings the record back to the 4/4 with a flowing yet subtle working of synths and pads. Also based in Finland yet hailing from Holland is VC-118A, who previously caught our attention with his track 'PCB' a firm favourite at Exit Planet Earth events. VC118-A delivers some deep space dub with expertly crafted production centring on low end theory.

Sansibar - Tamagotchi  (Snippet)

Coming as a totally fortunate discovery for us, @8Salamanda8 is an Ambient/Leftfield music group, consisting of Seoul-based electronic music producers - DJ Uman Therma (Sala) and Yetsuby (Manda).

Salamanda believes every sound has beauty, and they love to collect & create music from original field recordings from the world around them.

Sharing their love for minimal, ambient, and many other genres, Salamanda have been busy presenting their own unique dreamy and humid tracks via Soundcloud, Bandcamp, Instagram and many other platforms, and we're super excited to now showcase their work via cassette.

'Allez' is a story about a bird that flew out from a cage...beginning its journey early in the morning on Side A and embracing freedom, flying onwards into the night on Side B.

Available now via the Good Morning Online Store.

GMT37 Salamanda - Allez

Live, improvised clarinet and synth performance.
