Name: Thirst Tracks Vol. 2 by Persuasion
Duration: 1 h

softi (@jazz_brown) goes fathoms deep for the podcast series. Big on atmosphere with a serious disregard for genre boundaries, the London-based DJ keeps things engrossing while never loosing sight of a fondness for dub, footwork and depth-charge tribalism.

She’s also cultivated community around @cozi-716789961, a party series and radio show placing emphasis on electronic music’s sensuous potential. Basically, anything softi touches is done in intrepid style. 

Subtly transcendent, timelessly transportive, and like the mix, an upcoming appearance at Draaimolen Festival will undoubtably deliver on that promise.

“I curated a fluid and progressive journey that floats effortlessly through BPMs and genres of the psychedelic sounds of electronic music. I wanted to create a taste of what to expect this year on the dance floor. A sensual, fresh flavour and sound that I want to push throughout my sets. 

Creating an atmosphere, always keeping it deep and expanding consciousness. With a slow but emotive start with smooth ambient and deep tribal techno which expressively leads into experimental bass-heavy IDM, jungle and d&b whilst still keeping a unique, growing spaced-out mood with each track.” – Softi

@kiernan-laveaux
Kiernan Laveaux comes in here, with her exciting take on what we could call ‘making full use of our mixing gear’. Keeping the spirit alive of Ron Hardy in the few interviews she did, it really makes sense in regards of the mutual playfulness in the art of DJing. 
The character of this mix bright and weird, something that gains feelings of hope and liberation. A trip that pulsates and stretches with loopy looping, that makes it breath & constrict at times. Kiernan guides us so smooth and kindly through many different cosmic passages. Wavy landscapes without losing any of warmth or euphoria.
Kiernan is from Cleveland, an affiliate of the T4T LUV NRG label & a part of Sweet Abyss - where this mix was recorded live, amidst various gay psychedelic vibes. Thanks Kiernan!

“This mix is 70 minutes transmitted live & direct from my brain at one of the transgender dance music focused Sweet Abyss events I helped to create in 2023, opening for my lovely friend Tabasheer. Recommended listening on a walk by yourself, in a room with strange lighting, or riding up & down life’s escalators”

Orb Podcast 069: Andrew Pekler

"Continuing the loose 'isle' theme with a fictional soundtrack to flying over Benbecula at sunrise. Looped & layered voices, scuzzy psych rock concrete, modern downtempo, warped club stuff, field recordings, 90s Futurism, songs about the land & sea, plus a smokers cough for good measure...." - Fergus Clark

@somewherepress
Somewhere Press is a Glasgow-based record label that embodies the emotive, narrative-led spaces in sound work, uplifting outsider voices and queering notions of experimental music and print. 

This mix explores the discrepant sounds of dream states.
Ethereal choral vocals are entangled with distorted and disturbed voices and a drifting psychedelic ambience is broken apart by rumbling atmospheres of industrial.
As layers break apart, raw and resonant drones float beneath the surface; an opiated, eternal delirium.
