The Upload

For the eight year, I’ve been putting together this mix which is a personal selection / exploration of healing and transformative music: songs that have a deep sense of spirituality without being religious in nature. A feeling that can be found in music of all genres, eras and cultures.

On a usual year anywhere on the planet, a beautiful spring morning feels like a precious gift. However these past 12 months have been anything but usual. I would like to dedicate this mix to all that have lost loved ones, faced difficulties and personal challenges.

Dedicated to my mom. 
Dedicated to Marc Bartissol aka Dull. Dedicated to Phil Larochelle.
Dedicated to all of us who have survived the storms.

SPRINGTIME SPIRITUAL Mix Vol. 9 (2022) — Hand-picked by Lexis

TrackFor the last 10 years I’ve been releasing this project exploring music that evokes spirituality and a connection to nature. Spiritual music that isn’t necessarily religious in nature and also has a wide musical lens, beyond spiritual jazz for example.

Spring in my hometown of Montreal always arrives at least 4 weeks later than almost anywhere in the world. And because of our long grueling winters, when springtime arrives in the city you can feel the effect on everyone’s collective mood. There’s a certain indescribable electricity in the air.

This project is dedicated to my mom.

The third in my series of tributes to legendary (and living) pianists: Ramsey Lewis! So many decades of music, beginning with long-running trios and then evolving and incorporating all variety of styles, instruments and sounds. Only could include a few favorites here, but listening to his records takes me back to the very beginnings of my crate-digging obsessions. Hope you enjoy.

Jalal El Hamdaoui - Ya Zineb ✪ جلال حمداوي - يا زينب ✪ (Black Lulu RMX)

My annual Spring mix has become my most challenging and rewarding project. All year round I accumulate notes, lists and piles of records that I think have that little something magical needed for this session.

This is a deeply personal and spiritual mix but it isn't limited to a genre. Music that makes me float, meditate, introspect. Music that makes me hopeful. 

Dedicated to the sun. 

Dedicated to my mom. 

Dedicated to you.

For the 7th year now I have been marking the arrival of Spring with this spiritual mix which has become the project that is closest to my heart. In case you're wondering, in Montreal springtime arrives in April - seems like our 6 month winters steal a month of autumn and one from spring.

All year long, I save song ideas in a little notepad just for my Spring mix, it's the only DJ mix that is truly on my mind all year long. It is an exploration of spirituality in all its musical forms, jazz to house to reggae and more.

For me, it's also a form of catharsis and annual goal post marking another year of growth, challenges. I hope this year's edition can provide some inspiration, solace and happiness. I wish you all well during these challenging times.

Dedicated to my mom. Dedicated to my friend Marc aka dull. Dedicated to all of us who have survived life's storms.
