Southern Exposure Presents Melodics with Raskal

Melodics Presented By Southern Exposure Music & Raskal

A compendium of vibratory-tales as told from my artistic perspective.

▲ Mixtapes ▲

Some of my favorite DJ mixes from around the region :)

Regional Favorites

My intention with recording this set was to evoke a summation of the experiences we shared together on the dance floor over the course of 2023.

In this 1 hour set, I curated a variety of sounds & moments that I do believe many of you would find an embodied sort of familiarity in + It is my hope that all of you will be able to - in essence - practice, relive & share in those same instances of sonic intelligence with others, outside of Sol Dance. That being said, may each of you continue to thrive & enjoy with your hearts this quintessentially circular journey through light, sound & embodiment. More music to come.

Melodics 259

Melodics 259 with Guest Mix from 18 East (Mumbai)

The clock had just struck midnight, and the energy was high! Everyone was joyously celebrating & yelling alongside the cacophony of djembes & shakers pulsating together in unison.

We had all just jumped through the threshold of the new year as a community after a ritual releasing of 2024 and the simultaneous, intentional 'calling in' of our blessings for 2025. An incredible way to celebrate the New Year in Atlanta!

My set began the moment the drums stopped playing and thus it was my intention to maintain the energy we had all created instead of letting it fall away. While this isn't representative of the typical way I'd begin a set of Ecstatic Dance, I found it to be a beautifully liberating ride through the energetics of joy, intensity, playfulness, sensuality, and grace. The set itself became a powerful vessel for the community to transmute their intentions for 2025 onto the dance-floor as we rode the waves together.

Happy New Year Year, family.

May you enjoy this dance - again and again - with your hearts aglow! ❤️

A sonic journey into the deep synapses of your brain through sound.

Neuron Dance: A Journey Into Sound

So honored to have my buddy @Klaws of ReThink Techno out of Greenville, SC takes us on this deliciously deep, minimal & dubby voyage into the New Moon portal in Taurus. He has appropriately titled this 2nd volume of the podcast, "In Dub". Grateful for his sonic intentions with this mix and willingness to contribute to the project. 🙏🏾

Please feel free to enjoy, share, repost, comment, & subscribe. New mixes will be posted during potent Lunar & astrological cycles.

<< October New Moon in Taurus >>

Lunar Expressions | 002 - Klaws

New Moon in Sagittarius - A wonderful time for starting projects and realizing those procrastinated visions with passion, direction, and vigor. In the midst of all this, we can temper our wilder impulses with a grounded strategic vision to expand in the ways we need most.

This volume is especially appropriate given the forward momentum brought about by this Sagittarian Moon phase, because not only has Aidan Rolfe | @aidanrolfe of Asheville, NC curated a stellar next chapter to the story of Lunar Expressions, but it is part of a dual release on his weekly podcast "Synth Etiquette Radio" where I released a set in tandem with this episode. It's a wonderful thing to collaborate with other humans doing similar work in the world - so, may this be the first of many opportunities together. 

That being said, Aidan's Volume 3 is ripe with potent, percussive moments including a few of my personal favorites by Yotam Avni, Traumer, & Minilogue. Aidan knows how to curate with the vibe of the moon and, as always, I am deeply grateful for his willingness to contribute to the growth of this project.

Please feel free to enjoy, share, repost, comment, & subscribe. New mixes will be posted during potent Lunar & astrological cycles

Oh man, big week this week! There are some changes to the show as well as some cool news! Besides a new graphic, the show finally has its very own intro music! HUGE thanks to The Antelope, aka Nomad in the Dark, aka Iffy from In Plain Sight for providing the opening with such a beautiful track to be ruined by my voice overs.

Now, for our very special guest this week. I am oh so pumped to have Hypnocat on the show. I had the honor of playing with her in Greenville a few weeks back, and her techno selections kept me out much later than I planned. Asking her to be on the show was an inevitability. This mix really did it for me, so if you're looking to get your week bangin',  I doubt you'll find much better.
