Days Of Steam

Nashville's finest @mischa-lively has been holding it down with his @new_love_unlimited label and event series in Nashville for some time now, and his earnest touch with electronics buoys a necessary voice in a city known for its cultural and historic power in the American music industry, but overlooked by many off the usual dance music itinerary. I reached out to him this summer, drawing an Oblique Strategy to serve as a prompt, and having drawn 'think of the radio' we jettisoned directness in favour of "the glass prism as a multidimensional object". Starting with Crystal Ball era Prince, offering playful advice and guidance, Mischa's mix spirals down Drexciyan wormholes, restrained riddims, acidic peaks, his favourite Derrick Carter remix (not who you would expect), dance hypnotics, and contemplative and reflective energies.

Days Of Steam 004: Mischa Lively

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

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."

&ampquot;Finally I got the carrot&ampquot; is a collage of music by Luzi Gehrisch.
The collected songs provide a glimpse into a music discovery and archive of music built up over the past years.
&ampquot;Sitting in a park in the grass, I feel like a donkey that enjoys eating the carrot that was dangling in front of its nose.&ampquot;
