Tracklist

Groove Podcast 399 - Salamanda

@le-motel is a film composer, graphic designer and producer who draws on his worldly travels to make richly immersive music. It comes detailed with field recordings from remote locations, visual cues from his design work and a mix of the organic and the synthetic and has mixed up everything from jazz to juke, techno to hip hop. As well as running Maloca Records he has picked up props from Gilles Peterson for an album for New Zealand’s Cosmic Composition, has collaborated with Fuzati on Ombrage Éditions went solo into a breaks, bass and grime fusion on YUKU in summer. 

Now the Kiosk Radio resident arrives in our podcast series with 60 minutes of earth-quaking global rhythms. The tempos are slow to start with but the impact is heavy from off. Lithe minimal drums fizz with dystopian energy and evolve from deep and dubby to broken and intense as Le Motel ramps up the pressure and keeps your body moving in ways only he can.

I started listening to ambient music properly during lockdown as a way of trying to heal from heartbreak as well as a coping mechanism to deal with what was going on around the world. I was pulling together playlists of tracks that made my heart sing or weep, to soundtrack my daily walks around the canals of berlin or the quiet residential area where i grew up and ended up moving back to. These playlists were the start of the sounds of healing series and my journey of digging deeper into ambient soundscapes via my refuge worldwide residency. It’s a genre that I probably would say I have the biggest emotional connection to right now, in the way that it has helped me through some really difficult times in the last four years. So it was an honour to bring this to the club space for the first time for playbody 002, a party run by some of my wonderful  friends. Sounds of healing vol. 5 is a glimpse of what I played during that after hours set, in what became one of the most beautiful settings with the lights dimmed, a candlelight by the decks, people curled up with each other on various platforms, kissing, or deep in conversation. It was touching to witness people have the same emotional reaction to the music as me; people coming up and saying how a track or artist had saved their life or that they just wanted to have this personal moment with the music, away from the conversation. It was deeply vulnerable to play some of these tracks to a group of people, some being strangers but it very much aligns with the journey I’ve been on recently. And with this mix, I’m not only sharing that moment with you but I’m bottling up this feeling and keeping it close to me forever.

Juanita's Mix 099 with Jan Woo @jawnethon

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. Im a lover of mushrooms, plants, rocks, animals (and also, all their medicines), animism, yoga, farmers markets, poetry, resistance, mutual education, land back, shamxnism/transformation, tribal music, folk music, all music and cats. I like making lists and they're usually too long lol

Q. How long have you been a part of the NY music scene?  
A. Ive been in NYC for 16 years 🙈 I used to do events for years and stopped due to exhaustion (and probably inexperience). Thinking of getting back into it in a fuck capitalism kinda way due to recent events 

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I randomly started this playlist like a year ago with Matthew Herbert "Nine Seeds of Navdanya", Donato Dozzy "AA Side - Original Mix", Xcor "Translation" and Lucy "Meetings with Remarkable Entities" and added a track+ every month or so.  I tend to start journey mix ideas with four or five tracks that give vibe, and go from there. Id say most of these tracks live in the pan shamxnistic "techno" folder in my brain, but also give me "angelic", "enlightenment", and "animism".
