Living Room n°89 ~ @soriasoriasoria

~

q. pls introduce yourself:
I’m Soria, I’m an artist and musician from Ireland, living in Berlin at the moment. 

q. is there a story behind the mix?
I wanted to tap into a vibe of strength, passion, intrigue. Also wanted to keep it fairly loose genre wise and true to what I’ve been listening to and the mood I’ve been feeling. 

q. what’s the best way to enjoy your mix?
Defo a solo headphones moment, maybe a long journey home. Like after exiting a situation…

q. describe a favourite object in your living room...
I think this vintage Avon perfume called “Precious Doe” my sister got me a few years ago. It’s long empty but the deer shaped bottle is so beautiful as an ornament. I think of her every time I see it. 

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?
I rarely make music these days and when I do it’s very sporadic, but I definitely find myself excited by collaborations at the moment. I’m really excited to mix down the recordings of some shows with Jennifer Moore in Dublin. We’ve been friends for so long, beginning to work together was so inspiring this year.
