Great conversation! Didnt know so much about you until hearing this interview but you are inspiration. Glad to know theyre others out there that feel as i do. The music festival idea needs to be created and acted on. It would be epic and worthwhile

This is Part 2 of my Mystery of the Motherbeat series of DJ mixes. I’ve wanted to record this mix for a long time as a follow-up to my 2018 mix by the same name. Both are a fusion of styles used to build a psychedelic hypnotic soundscape for deep listening and personal synchronization with the heart of Motherbeat. No big hands in the air moments to speak of here, just deep mixing and some of the most beautiful records in my collection.

A few words from the artist:

1/ How would you describe your personal connection to music and how it influences your creative process?

My connection to music is very much a love/hate relationship. Some days, I wake up and feel an overwhelming, transcendent love for all forms of sound—whether it’s music, noise, or even random everyday sounds. But other days, even the chirping of birds gets under my skin. This duality really mirrors my creative process: one day, I feel like everything I create is brilliant, and the next, I question how I could possibly produce something so meaningless.

2/ As an artist, how do you see the intersection between fashion and music?

Music is my chosen medium of expression—it’s what I’m most sensitive to. But it’s the same with fashion; everything feels interconnected. When I attend a fashion show, I can sense the music and the artistry behind it. To me, a melody can be just as much a form of art as a drawing or even a pair of loose jeans. It’s all about choosing the medium that resonates with you.

3/ What particularly interested you in collaborating with Études Studio to make this mix?

Honestly, it’s the pants. Études pants have this precise, cool cut that I absolutely love. I can’t deny it—I’m a huge fan of their pants ahah.

4/ How did you curate this musical sequence/audio journey?

I was on holiday in Zanzibar, an island in the Indian Ocean off the coast of East Africa, and a local saying really stuck with me during that trip: Pole pole, which means “slowly” in Swahili. While the mix itself isn’t particularly slow, I was inspired by the serene and breathtaking water landscapes I experienced there. I wanted to translate what it might feel like to party in such a setting into music.

5/ Three words to define your mix for Études Studio?

Blue, Tentacle, Coral.

I recorded this mix in 2018 for the Her Damit festival and titled it the Mystery of the Motherbeat. I was hungry to tour Europe for the first time and agreed to do a mix and play the festival on a shoestring budget. Her Damit went into bankruptcy later that year, failing to pay artists and others for their work.  They also let their Soundcloud account expire, losing all the mixes they commissioned for the series. 

I am re-releasing this mix under its original name. Its real name. It is one of my deepest mixes. It is filled with the love and hope for the future that I put into it. It was recorded a week before I went to visit Maya and Brooke for the first time in March of 2018, exactly two years ago. That visit would change my life.
