夕方の影「Evening Shadows」[Mix, 2010]

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

So, here we are again, partaking in part-time life with a part-time attitude. Who’s up for a little break? God knows we all need one. Considering how chaotic things are at the moment I think it's time we get a bit of respite in our lives, in the form of an audible vacation. Sit back, sip an imaginary cocktail on a fictional deckchair, on the deck of a mythical cruise ship.
The captains of this cruise are Chomley, the terrible twosome, on their never-ending quest to make your life that little bit better. 

The Naarm based duo are fluent in fairytales, putting the mind at ease and your feet to good use, weaponising their talents across all different types of dance floors. Their mix’s hit every single time and this one hits hardest of all. 

I think I’ve (subconsciously) kept this mix to myself, because I find it so special. I’ve had to snap myself out of the greed and let the world experience the profound beauty of the 4 hours that follow, after a click of the play button. It truly encapsulates the aesthetic of FHUO and then transcends it; A mood for every day of the week, uncovered gems in every playthrough, truly a gift that will keep on giving long into the future.

This mix has been my rock for the past few months now. 
Things are pretty dicey out there, and this has been pure solace, a sense of romantic respite in such a chaotic time. 

Alas, no longer should this be enjoyed by me solely, it’s time for you to take the plunge. 

You’re welcome. 

Stay kind. X

FHUO # 65 // Chomley

We welcome Tornado Wallace (@tornadowallace), long time friend of the label and whose record 'Falling Sun' we released through Second Circle back in 2016.  Interview (excerpt) down below.

MFM: Hey Lewie, how have you been lately?

TW: I dipped out to East Asia and Australia for the infamous Berlin winter and now I’m back ready for the euro warmth. Though it’s in no hurry to arrive here just yet.

MFM: There's a new record coming on Basic Spirit, the label you run with Jamie Tiller, and it all looks rather secretive... Can you tell us more about it Lew E? :) 

TW: I made these tracks when I was holed up sick for a week. Not being able to go to the studio I relied strictly on samples and software, which was fun to change the workflow up a little bit. I wanted to make some very club ready tracks, without any intention for a release. They (rather obviously) sample two well known tracks, but there’s a lot of new ideas too. I use a different name as it felt like a different style and approach to how I usually go about things. I think there will be more Lew E things on the horizon though :D.

MFM: Previous releases on Basic Spirit also had this '90s touch to it. What is it that you like about (music from) that era?

TW: I grew up in the 90s so a lot of the music coming out then really hits the nostalgic feels. But also, really interesting things were happening with technology, and it became a lot more affordable to put together a record. So there were a lot of - for lack of a better term - laymen releasing electronic music. Some of which had very new and out-there approaches to processes like sampling, mixing and arranging. But trends and technology all moved along so quickly that some of these sounds and ideas never had a chance to get fully fleshed out. Which is why it’s nice to pick up where some left off. People are currently very responsive to this late 90s/early 2000s sound, which is great for me because that’s a time when I really fell in love with electronic music. As a DJ, I’m playing these really personal tracks that I discovered as a teenager, and for the first time since I began playing parties/clubs 18 years ago, people seem to really understand them. It’s a very cool feeling.

MFM: You've also started a new more pop oriented project called a.s.o. together with vocalist Alia Seror O’Neill. Has it always been a dream or goal of yours to start a more band kind of project? Does it require a different writing/recording approach compared to when making dance music for the clubs?

TW: I like making music that I like listening to. And with the pandemic in full swing in 2020, I was having a little break from club music, and diving deeper into other styles of music I enjoy. Both from a listening and producing perspective. I found it to be a very different approach. It’s more melody/hook driven and focuses on getting ideas down quickly as they’re forming. A lot of the time I would use a basic keyboard and guitar to record, and Alia would add vocal melodies and harmonies on the fly. Sometimes it could get difficult when we would both want to put our fleeting ideas down at the same time! On that note, collaboration is never easy for me as I like to have full creative control of whatever it is I’m working on, and sometimes the creative paths divide and compromises have to be made. Sometimes the compromised path is thick and thorny, and sometimes it is paved gold and smells of roses.

MFM: How did you go through the selecting and recording process, any specific record or mood you had planned?

TW: I came across a bunch of really nice tracks all in a relatively similar downtempo/shoegaze style, and wanted to make a mix of music like that. For moody home/car/train etc listening. I also included a forthcoming Cousin remix of an a.s.o. single which I love and wanted to share early!

For our 11th release, pioneering selector Andrew "Lovefingers" Hogge presents a mix that feels like we’re listening to records with him in his backyard in LA. The music is cinematic, intimate, and easy to love. Perfect for the weather—inside and out—as summer blends into autumn.

“Some of my all time favorite oddballs. Not too much mixing, an ideal mix for just hanging out. Summertime vibes.”

Andrew's deft, intuitive approach to DJing extends beyond the decks: He runs the esteemed ESP Institute label and is a well-established graphic designer and creative director. His work is infused with a warmth and enthusiasm that was readily apparent in our exchanges as we discussed this mix.
