A re-imagination of a mixtape I never finished.

I started putting the pieces of this mix together in early 2018, and stopped after a head injury that made listening to music painful. These songs have gotten me through some of my darkest times, I hope this trip can provide you with some solace in 2020. 

Re-imagined, reorganized, re-edited songs, personal recordings, voice memos, bits of books...from “before,” from now. 

Recordings and music from: Amazondotcom, Ash Ra Tempel, ASMZ, Barefoot, Babyfather, Beautiful Pea Green Boat, Beat Happening, Carmen Maria Machado, CCL/Cecu, COH, Cocteau Twins, The Congos, Drome, The Durutti Column, Echium, Faye Wong, Freeway Fusion, Graham Lambkin, Jana Rush, Jake Muir, Jonathan Fitoussi & Clemens Hourriere, Koñca Taniec, Kelsey Lu, Kuedo, M.

Newtype Rhythms #116 - Special Guest: Djoser

Jake Muir is a multi-disciplinary artist, now residing in Berlin by way of Seattle and Los Angeles, whose uncanny ability to manipulate sound has given form to two stunning full-length works in "Lady's Mantle" (via @sferic-records) and "Muara" (via @further-records as Monadh). This mix from Jake is pure enchantment, a carefully assembled palette of entropic textures and vaporous, unclassifiable forms touching upon the limits of perception. A collapse into a marine haze, an afterimage of a season abandoned.

Jordan GCZ - minimal detroit vol. 022

@carrotgreen is very much a product of his Brazilian homeland. He makes and plays music that can place you deep into a freaky and humid jungle techno party, or transport you to a chilled out beach comedown. He played a masterful set of mellowness for us at our Sao Paulo festival way back in 2017 and by then he had already released a range of organic, deep and Latin flavoured house EPs. His latest release came in July on DJ Ground's Japanese Chill Mountain label and featured a pair of "murky late-night slow dub affairs," that get right under your skin. 

As this week's podcast proves, Carrot Green can pack all of those sounds and more into a one hour mix that will leave you breathless. It starts out with intoxicating and worldly ambient sounds but soon gets stuck into exotic house then slick and slamming techno. After working you into a frenzy with tight mixing and superb selections, he pulls back to mystic ancient dub sounds that leave you perfectly enchanted.

For the August edition we've invited Donna Leake from London who handed over a high spirited 2 hour mix. Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Hi Donna, welcome to the series. How's your day so far? Does your day normally involve music from the moment you wake up?

DL: Hi. Thanks so much for having me. My day so far has been real sweet. I woke up at 6:30am and all I’ve done is make coffee, listen to and dig for music, draw and paint. It’s now 13:30. Not every day is like this though! 

MFM: Before lockdown, was DJing the only thing that brought food on the table? How is that now, did you revise your approach or strategy after the whole live events scene collapsed?

DL: Yes it was the only thing bringing money in and turned out it was one of the main things keeping my soul full and my spirit high. So I’ve had to re strategise a few areas of my life recently. I haven’t come up with anything solid yet, I’ve always just gone with the wind. But I think now there is a sense of urgency to save myself getting into more debt because of this! But I did gain something massive and far more valuable than money since losing it, a new perspective as to what it was we were doing and what I was a part of. I now appreciate the beauty of people making the effort to gather and listen and share music together and the industry and all it's efforts more than ever. I always had thanks, but I guess you can really check in on something more closely when you stop and look at it from the outside.

MFM: Do you then also feel positive about the future of nightlife and culture?

DL: Yes I feel positive about it. The force of music is so strong and what it does to people is unstoppable. It may take some time and maybe it will change, but that might even be a good thing. We all got an opportunity to check in with ourselves and stop and even though this was a disaster for the economy and the effects of that will last a while, the essence of art and music have nothing to do with money and that’s where it should restart. If anything it might have a wonderful impact. Art can sometimes be richer if we’ve been through some heavy experiences. 

MFM: What in your opinion actually makes a DJ stand out?

DL: Most importantly, and this probably applies to everything, I think is to be yourself which will naturally be unique if you are able to harness your true essence. I know that sounds obvious but it’s often a journey to feel as though you know or to find yourself, but I think being true and present in every moment of that journey is how you’ll be able to tap into what’s unique about what you do. Being fully present and playing with the times whether that’s trying to express what's going on inside you or a response to what’s happening in the world. Also not to think but feel your way through. This will often be more accurate since our heads are pretty full and busy! Authenticity and truth can be applied to any taste and style. For me I like to go on a ride with twists, turns and surprises and hear a story with a variety of feelings from the lowest to the highest, but keeping it coherent and without being too much of a mess. Although a bit of mess is all right too!

MFM: Thanks a lot for your contribution. Can you take us through your process of recording mixes?

DL: I would say all of the above is the general process for any mix, or at least as much of this as possible is considered. But since recording mixes is the only way I’ve been sharing music recently and I’ve made so many, I have started to try to give each mix more of a focus. For example one I did recently was called music for chess. And this mix has a particular focus on psych. This is because I can feel summer ending is just around the corner and it’s been the most hazy, mind bending, deep, confusing but colourful and dream like summer I’ve ever had and I’ve never felt so inside and removed from my head and the world at the same time as I have this summer!

Inspired by the Fluxus and Dada artistic movements, get ready for a mix of avant-garde noise, free jazz, techno, dubstep, dancehall and definitely unclassifiable records, closer to post-punk sound cut-up than to a classic DJ set!

As a preamble, discover a rich and intimate discussion with Daniel Fontana, the 30-year-old programmer of the legendary club and festival Bad Bonn and Kilbi Festival in Düdingen, in his Swiss countryside. With DJ Marcelle, he shares a complicity of more than 15 years, nourished by a musical curiosity never satiated and a generous radicalism in his artistic choices, between contagious jubilation and the haunting of an aseptic music > https://www.lafayetteanticipations.com/en/media/dj-marcelle-another-nice-mess?media=1&tid=0

Sean OD with Kiernan Laveaux - 27 August 2020

Saharan artist @azu-tiwaline is inspired by the desire to explore her origins in the Tunisian desert. She did this to magnificent effect on Draw Me A Silence, a debut album released earlier in 2020 that unified traditional Amazigh music with contemporary dub cultures and hypnotic techno sounds. Defined by an ever-present polyrhythmic chiaroscuro - the contrast between light and dark - it's a mysterious album that gets you in a trance and encourages inward reflection. 

The same sense of intoxicating repetition and minimalism runs through this week's podcast. It is an often multi layered listen that has stringy, drawn out rhythms. What sounds like ancient ethic percussion and instrumentation mingles loosely with moody synth drones. Naturalistic field recordings - water, birds, vocal chants - enrich the mix next to trippy studio effects and make for something utterly beguiling. Somehow old yet new, surreal but earthy, these disparate worlds rarely collide in such harmonious ways.

Full tracklist: bleep.com/features/bleep-mix-133-Vladimir-Ivkovic-Ivan-Smagghe

The duo of Vladimir Ivkovic and Ivan Smagghe deliver a feast of delights for lovers of far-out sonics and experimental electronics on their entry into Bleep’s mix series. Running close to three hours in length, the first third of their IDMEMO mix journeys into tripped-out drone, psychedelic reveries and outer-edges industrialism - tracks from seminal post-industrial outfits Nurse With Wound, Current 93 and Coil are all included. While this vibe is returned to throughout the subsequent tracks, Ivkovic and Smagghe also juxtapose it with some more beat-driven passages which veer between lush IDM and low-slung leftfield Balearicism/psychedelic house. The pair also find time to slip a couple of their own remixes into proceedings - indeed, the mix closes out with the ethereal, almost Arca-esque electro-balladry of Mickey van Seenus’s ‘What If (Smagghe & Cross Version)’.
