Juanita's Mix 044 with DJ Voices @latenitesbookclub

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. I can't really separate who I am as a dj from who I am as a person, so:
On my bad days: a loner and disturbed eccentric, alienated and alienating
On better days: untameable free spirit; subscriber to the forever child archetype

Q. How long have you been a part of the NYC music scene?
A. Going on a decade now! I can only hope that when all is said and done, I will have given back at least half as much as it's given to me.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. This mix is inspired by two experiences: psychedelic walks through Green-Wood Cemetery, and reading about/listening to Andrew Weatherall. They’re united within me, indelibly lodged in the same part of my heart/brain, and mediated through my favorite mode of expression: the dj mix. Similarly, this mix contains two distinct halves that hopefully by the end make sense together as two chapters of the same story.

Source material for this mix is pulled from Andrew Weatherall’s many mixes, production aliases, and record labels; but also songs that I've found on my own that have no connection to AW but still fit the vibe, along with songs connected to recent experiences of auditory hallucinations in the cemetery and biking home on 5th Avenue, depleted but euphoric in the mist. These hallucinations are based on memories of other times I tapped into something greater than myself amongst others (such as dancing the entire length of Powder’s closing set at Sustain Release 2019, if you need an example).

I’m grateful for these two experiences that kept the joy and meaning of life alive within me during an otherwise horrendous pandemic year.

Made with the tripper’s ear, head and heart in mind, there’s subtle and not-so-subtle nods to one’s ideal state while listening to this mix : )

Juanita's Mix 044: DJ Voices

Our next podcast comes courtesy of NYC's Boo Lean, with a 3hr opening set for Tim Reaper and Coco Bryce in the Good Room that's worth every minute. It's a full circle 85-170bpm journey that moves from cerebral to dub and UKG-infected deep body heaters, to an all-out DnB/Jungle/Harcore crescendo in honor of the late MC Conrad. Including a surprise live MC appearance from Reddablackbrown. With her signature twists, guitar shreds and flips of funkmaster Greg Perry's "The Boogie Man" make an appearance along the way. Lock in. 

Boo Lean (aka Lauren Goshinski) is a figure on the stage and behind-the-scenes as a DJ, curator, nightlife advocate, and board member of Resident Advisor, holding it down for club culture. More > @boo-lean, www.laurengoshinski.com

The selection and mix were made while beach house hopping in the Philippines, barely any signal and lots of help from my Pinoy friends to get equipment from the city. Don’t expect a beach vibe, it’s simply music I like to listen to in the evenings, preferably with a joint.
