Days Of Steam

Blistering, mind-bending geometries from @deejaygeejaygee that run the gamut from sludge to full speed ahead, and much of it either self-released or from smaller labels outside the usual centers of production (NYC/LDN/BER)

"It's a celebration of percussion, dancing and global collective ecstasy."

Days Of Steam 003: Deejaygee

Slow-fast-slow / fast-slow-fast rhythms from @techniquenado's first time back in the studio in a few months. When I heard it, it sounded like I was watching Koyaanisqatsi backwards on half speed, if that explains anything. No tracklisting for this one - spotters, do your thing.

"This mix is inspired by unbearable, heavy heat - the one you can’t escape // Ce mixe est inspiré par la chaleur insoutenable et lourde - celle dont on ne peut se sauver."

Intense introspections from beau mensch of many hats Simon St-Louis (Système (Loose Screws x Air Supply) x Moab x Necklace) - restrained guitars and drum machines crawl inexorably along the Bowery, plaintive abstractions for the soul, suffocating Southern ambience, inverted psychedelia, staring at the horizon a la récherche du temps perdu

The Early Bird Show w/ Spirit Blue 010524

I first encounter Stefan though through Casa Del Popolo, the Main’s main den of épatering the bourgeoisie since the 90s, when they booked me for what was only the second Days of Steam night after the first at Rye Wax. The old booth was set up like you were in a chapel, dim as hell for me but enough of a remove from the audience without being too removed. They’re a longtime organizer in Montréal activist circles, the mind of @freecityradio, with a CV too long to summarize here but one that shows genuine belief and investment in the causes he champions. I’d seen them years back before we knew each other, as part of the city’s experimental undercurrents, with releases of introspective piano for Howl Arts alongside local luminaries Sam Shalabi and Peter Burton and mainstays d’la marge like Aural Canyon and Beacon Sound. Tapestries of field recordings and plunderphonics, part of a long tradition of musique actuelle in the city without intentionally trying to be so. The mix he sent over is almost entirely as of writing recent pieces, with compositions (what they all feel like more than ‘pieces’ or ‘tracks’) from Berkeley, Brooklyn, Brazil, Houston, Jaffa, Milan, Montréal - the sound of the uncertainty and rage of the now, but never restoring to despondency, moreso righteousness.

"It is my pleasure to share these tracks with you. On a basic level these tracks were shared mostly by friends in the context of exchanges and ongoing collaborations with folks in cities all over the place, around creating content for Radio AlHara in Palestine and beyond. I love that this mix jumps between vibes and styles. I also included a couple of tracks from recent releases that I worked on. I hope you enjoy the mix. – Stefan."
