Men With Broken Hearts - Mississippi Records Tape Series MRC020

For our second mix, we are sharing KJ’s Falling Sleep Tape, which was originally performed live at the Sex Magazine Launch at Mast Books. Inspired by the release of Vincent Gallo’s Brown Bunny Soundtrack, the mix reimagines John Fruiscante’s score in an ambient loop that extends all the pleasure points of the experimental guitarist’s sounds. 
 
Sex: So this is your second sleep tape? Like a tape to fall asleep to?
KJ: Yeah, it’s actually how I started making ambient music. I lived on a really busy and loud street in 2014/2015 and started making loops and drones to blare and fall asleep to. The first few ended up being my first album ‘wake’.
Sex: You couldn’t find sounds that existed you could fall asleep to?
KJ: I could but very few were minimal enough to really quiet my head. The best I could find was willamette's ‘always in postscript’ which is how I got in touch with Own Records in Luxembourg.
All of their releases had a really lush, simple, emotional quality to them that I really loved. It was never busy or overly ornate.
Sex: Making music to soothe yourself physically and to eventually not listen to - I’ve never heard of anyone doing that before… and eventually, you’re not listening because you’re asleep. You can’t put on John Frusciante and use that to lull yourself to sleep, can you?
KJ: Not unless I fuck with it and put it in this mode. I did an edit of this great computer game music from Mario Paint where I pitch-shifted and arpeggiated the melodies that my friend put out on his label Falling Star Erotica. But even that was never really supposed to be anything, it was just for my bedroom.
Sex: Do you know anyone else that’s used it to fall asleep to?
KJ: Yeah, my friend Tony and my girlfriend Maddie. Some people just put it on really low as background music in their apartments, which I’d recommend for this one. Let it blend into the air.
Sex: How did you first find out about John Frusciante?
KJ: This documentary he was in before he got sober. 
Sex: Did you see that before you even heard his music?
KJ: I had obviously heard RHCP when I was really young. Was never really a fan but I always loved the guitar melodies. Discovering his solo stuff was the most massive musical discovery of my adult life. It captures the pain/pleasure of addiction better than any art I know of
Sex: Do you play the guitar?
KJ: I do, poorly.
Sex: You made this mix when the brown bunny soundtrack came out… I haven’t listened to it, saw the movie years ago… how much is your mix a departure?
KJ: Technically not much, just very subdued and dreamy. it registers very differently on a feeling level though i think. I like customizing little phrases of instrumental music for a spiritual function. I was fading different stems in and out at your release party moment to moment depending on how loud the crowd was.
Sex: I love that.

I recorded this on the road in during some free time with the intention of making physical copies for merch and record shops. I still might!

Episode 298: James DiEugenio

A mix from the stacks of a sound I love but struggle to classify, a unique niche of independently produced instrumental music from the 70s and 80s that I used to find regularly in dollar bins across the US. Call it baroque world-jazz, lowercase folk-prog, or virtuoso new age. Deft fingerpicking, hand percussion, plaintive sax and ocean sounds. The kind of self-published folk-adjacent experiments that you find nestled in the bins next to Oregon and Mannheim Steamroller, but produced on a tenth of the budget in places like Glastonbury, Connecticut and Richmond, California. 

Ripped from vinyl, apologies for the surface noise.

"Baroque World-Jazz" Mix

SCREW MIX 6/27

Not a "Greatest Hit" per se, but easily my favorite (early) Mac song, edited across multiple versions & fidelities to play somewhat seamlessly for over 2 hours, with the mix slowly being eroded by a cavernous echo that is being gated by the dynamics of the dry signal.

EDIT, 06/17/18. I was taken aback by Danny Kirwan's passing a few days after I originally posted this. One of my all-time favorites, esp. within the context of both this lineup of Mac & this particular song; the original studio session which starts off the proceedings here was his first recorded appearance with the band! 

I've taken the original premise & fleshed it out a bit further, so that it can be put it to rest; this revised version uses the following versions of "Albatross" in a program that loops three times; almost entirely dry, then slowly fading in the reverb signal, finally slowly fading out the dry signal:

UK Mono 7"
Stereo from "Pious Bird" 
1968-11-05
1968-11-17
1969-02-28
1969-09-24
1969-11-06
1969-11-11
1970-01-02 (Radio)
1970-01-02 (Bootleg)
1970-01-31
1970-03-18
Stereo from "English Rose"

Fleetwood Mac; Albatross (Blend)

Recorded off of Nashville AM radio station WNAH two weeks ago- usually the station plays a mix of christian talk, sermons, and hymns but this Saturday they switched to an easy listening format for a few hours. The static and noise are just part of the magic of AM : )
