MIXES 🎧

Alright so a few weeks ago I did a guest mix for FBi Radio’s all-Sydney show. It kinda forced me to dig a little deeper into my own city and made me realise how much I’ve been missing right under my nose, past & present.

So, I’ve decided to make this a thing that I do more often. Sydney-only* mixes.

Here’s the first one.
Calling it MONORAIL TO THE CASINO.

MONORAIL TO THE CASINO Vol 1. (Live All-Sydney mix on FBI Radio)

A certain je nes sais quoi

Good news! We'll be releasing a beautiful LP from Unknown Mobile next month called Daucile Moon. 

Daucile Moon, which follows @unknown-mobile releases on No Bad Days, Normals Welcome and Young Adults, started four years ago in Vancouver when Levi Bruce was recovering from a broken toe and collecting MIDI files he found in an old geocities archive. It was finished earlier this year in Montreal with help from Mike Silver, AKA CFCF, who added plaintive guitar to complete the album's placid and stargazing style of ambient and downtempo music.

The album takes its name from an old, obscure Canadian jazz song that Bruce describes as "pretty but also with a serious amount of melancholy," which could also describe his new record. In the vein of Pacific Rhythm label-mate Khotin's standout New Tab album, Daucile Moon comprises drowsy beats and spaced-out loops, referencing the pinnacle of early '90s chillout and ambient while infusing it with the dazed sound of Canadian electronic music in the 2010s.

Bruce's process in making Daucile Moon was long but leisurely. He took the melodies from those MIDI files and moved them over to his analogue outboard setup and then back to his computer, creating a digital-analog hybrid that sounds as pleasantly worn as a dog-eared novel. Live instrumentation, like Silver's classical acoustic guitar stylings on "A Windless March Ouest," mingles with occasional dance music references like the subtle acid squelch of "Ravers Sojourn" or the hazy breakbeat of "Oenology."

The album was inspired by various happy memories, from sharing wine with friends ("Oenology") to a dog that Bruce met ("Simone Can't Swim"). The result is a patient and personal record that highlights the best qualities of Bruce's previous work as Unknown Mobile, with his distinct style of melody and soundscaping set free from kick drums and the dance floor. It's telling that Bruce originally sent the record, at first called Melancholic Songs For Dogs, to his parents and two grandmas—this is beautiful, relaxing music whose appeal is universal.

Daucile Moon will be released digitally across all platforms and on limited edition cassette tape available through our online store, Bandcamp, and Seance Centre on July 14, 2019.

Mastered by Nik Kozub.

Thanks for listening!

Gone

Decided to do something to take my mind off things and get away from the news. For a few hours, I fell into a timewarp of ambient, folk, exotica, gentle psychedelia and everything in between... I forgot that we were in a pandemic.

This is the first chapter in a new series, designed to be listened to alone. I want these mixes to feel like a weird, warm hug. It made sense to make this one about Italy right now - all tracks by Italian artists. 

I hope it offers you a quiet space away from the noise. 

🖤

FBi Mix 16 - Phondupe

Put a lot of love into this one - happy to finally share it with you 😌. Here is the second chapter in my new mix series, ISOLATA. A two hour downtempo adventure through Japanese music with a focus on ambient and folk, going everywhere from video game soundtracks to shoegaze.⁣ 
⁣
I started this mix series for solo listening mid-lockdown to get away from the anxiety of everything. This time around it’s a bit of a journey (one for the psychonauts 🍄) so if you’ve got the time, throw on some headphones, close your eyes and travel the space ways. ⁣
⁣
The music comes from records I’ve collected on trips to Japan + some long nights down internet wormholes. ⁣
⁣
The M.O with this series is... nothing too challenging, weird enough to surprise you, deep enough to move you, warm enough to feel like a hug. ⁣

Sink in ⚓️
