Made this breaks mix while navigating some life transitions. While the tracks have some tough edges, there's a feeling of energy aliveness that resonates with me in this moment. Here's to living life at 135bpm :)

Ysanne - The Monday Is OK Ransom Note mix

"We're trying to show more of who we are." The Belgian brothers unpack their decades-long career and first album in more than seven years.

There are some songs that have become pervasive, nearly universally recognisable features of pop culture. And my guess is that even if you don't know the Belgian duo Soulwax (AKA 2Manydjs) by name, you'll know their biggest hits, like early 2000s indie electronic anthems "E Talking" or "NY Excuse."

In this interview with Resident Advisor editor Gabriel Szatan, the brothers David and Stephen Dewaele talk about their decades-long career and writing their first album in more than seven years, All Systems Are Lying, which they road tested for ages before deciding to put it out. They also unpack bigger thematic arcs in their work and lives: the abiding influence of New Order's Power, Corruption and Lies LP; their creative philosophy ("If it sounds too simple, leave it alone);" and the nature of musical trends and revivals, which have fluctuated intensely since they began performing and releasing records. Listen to the episode in full. -Chloe Lula

July 2018 Mix - Peter Marks & Spencer Miles live at Orchard Vibration

To mark the release of Peter Marks and Sappho's Lime Appeal record out today on Bottom Forty ( bottomforty.bandcamp.com ) we ring in mix number 101 with Peter Marks himself !

@petermarks is the co-founder of @occasionvibration, which puts on some of the most talked about dance music events in Portland. He’s also a political activist who’s built digital tools for Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden and some of the largest labor unions in the country. The intersection of these two worlds is explored on his podcast “Rhythm Nation”, which features conversations with politically influenced musicians and musically influenced activists. 

Today, 9/4/2020, sees his debut release on @bottomforty with @sappho-presents-chingo. Their track “Lime Appeal” creeps in around the 9 minute mark of this hour long odyssey of tripped out dub, breezy house and breaks, 303-laced electro and low-slung disco. Comment on any track you would like him to id! For more on peter’s music and activism projects, including a music-community organizing initiative for 2020 Oregon ballot measures, visit his website at https://petermarks.us/.
