Juanita's Mix 85 with livwutang @livwutang

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. Aspiring multi-hyphenate : )

Q. How long have you been a part of the NY music scene?
A. I moved to NY in September of 2021. I had started to meet the seedlings of my now friends and budding community when I played here earlier in the summer of 2021 and before that, when I went to Sustain in 2019.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. This mix is:

1/2 the sequel to my beloved Honcho dubstep mix from 2021
1/2 a mix of music I would have shown to my baby stoner self in high school, instead of the carefully curated Majestic Casual-ridden playlists she was dutifully crafting at the time to accompany her equally intricate apple pipes.

SLINK (@simisea, @turiyarrao, @itsenayet, and @kwatakwata) went b4b all night at our favorite club Nowadays on Jan 21st. Without a doubt, one of the most fun sets we've ever played and the dancers were riding the wave with us the entire night.

This is us in peak party mode! We couldn't figure out where to start and stop this recording, and ultimately decided, let's just post the whole thing :)

With love,
Simisea, rrao, K Wata, Enayet

SLINK All Night @ Nowadays - Jan 21st 2023

Montréal born and raised zi! is a lifelong music lover & dancer. An avid digger, they are inspired by varying sounds and styles, adapting their craft to what their ear responds to. zi!'s work with online radio show and mix series Missed Connections allows them to further explore their diverse musical tastes by curating unique and thoughtful sets from friends around the world. With friends locally, they formed the queer DJ collective Flush, which has been organizing musically forward, community centered events for nearly 2 years. zi! is quickly becoming a mainstay in Montréal's vibrant underground scene. 

Notes on the Mix ///

"When I prepare a mix, I often pick one idea and expand on it for the whole session. This one explores a combination of bass, breaks, percussion, with elements of dub and world music. This sound just makes my body dance; it has something akin to the beats I grew up dancing to, melded with the more forward thinking production I find myself leaning into on today's dancefloors. Hope u enjoy<3"

Sobolik, a Brooklyn-based producer, DJ, promoter and label curator is up next for Tapes #98. Co-heading the London label All Centre alongside Simkin and DJ Pitch, Sobolik has been turning heads over the past two years with futuristic club cuts on labels such as 3024, CloudCore, Woozy, and early reflex. Sobolik's world is filled with colour and hyperkinetic energy - not fitting in one box, their output reacts to a broad palette of styles across North American and UK club music traditions. 

In February, they released their third EP, entitled Packet Loss, in a debut collaboration with Kindergarten Records, joining modern bass scene luminaries like Ayesha, Sha Ru, and Stolen Velour at Brooklyn’s preeminent home of chaotic, forward-thinking digital percussion tracks.

Origins Tapes 098 - Sobolik

One name that's been floating around the UK and beyond is Dj ojo !! 
A talent that all must know and hear. Joe aka Dj ojo is an artist, DJ and producer based in London. He first caught our attention back in 2021 releasing on Accidental Meetings first Compilation with a progressive, organic and emotive track called Mycelial, which set the tone for what was to come. Next releasing on Pressure Dome, Joe was able to create senses we never knew we had and leave us with hair standing on all parts. His music has really made an internally positive impact in the industry. His debut EP 'Coiled Up', released on Blank Mind, was a weird and cozy dose of 4 uniquely structured tracks that stunned us all. 
Joe not only produces but also Co runs 'Avant garbage' with legendary k means on Netail radio every month offering the most obscure sounds for your ears. He is also a resident on Leeds based station, NARR radio.
We are stoked to have Joe join Cozi with his one hour of dubby infused, house which was his first musical love!


Interview..........

1. How and why did you get into producing / dj’ing?

"I've been making music on and off since my teens but it was only about 3 years ago when i started taking it a bit more seriously. I also played drums when i was younger, and i've enjoyed making sounds and rhythms since as long as i can remember, so in some ways producing music felt inevitable. But there was still a massive mental hurdle just to start actually doing it properly. As for DJing, I guess thats just the natural progression from hogging the aux cord at house parties and friends cars. The music is a bit different these days though..."

2. Who, What/where was your most coziest gig you've been to or experienced and why?

"I think there are a variety of things that can make a gig cosy, a few experiences stick out for me... hearing Dozzy play slow deep house and techno feels like receiving a big warm hug; going to small and homely venues like Spanners is comforting, even if the music is not; ambient yurts at festivals often offer cosy outlets amongst the chaos - freerotation has the best one i've seen so far. Generally speaking London and the UK could definitely do with more venues focused primarily on comfort."

3.Are you an introvert or extrovert in the industry?

"Honestly it depends on my surroundings, overall i guess probably neutral. If i'm in a comfortable space surrounded by friends, then i like to express myself and make new connections. But i also value my solitude very highly and i like to be alone, even in the club from time to time. So if you see me out and i'm acting awkwardly that's probably why 😶‍🌫️"

4. If you had to choose 1 track to vibe out too forever, what would it be?

maus & stolle - bubble on. stick it on at the afters and watch everyone wobble and melt

5. What is your routine when preparing for a gig / production/writing session? do you have any special remedies/ mental prep/ places to go to? :)

"If i'm working on some music at home, i like to get into it early in the day if possible. I'll make a coffee and smoothie and prepare my desk area into a calming arrangement. I think most of the best music i've written has been first thing in the morning actually.

Preparing for a DJ gig is more of a gradual process of trying to picture myself in the environment, imagine how i'll feel, and choose a range of music accordingly. Then before the gig, eat a big bowl of pasta and try to not feel too anxious! "

"the inspiration for this mix came from a special afterparty where i DJ’d after a rave i had co-organized in montreal last october. i had spent most of the night dealing with the cops and got a fine for noise. once at the afterparty, i got to channel my frustration into music; i played dub techno for hours. to me, the airy but deep grooves of that music provide space for both introspection and release. hope you feel it too."
