Chrysalis 2021- Live Set

This is a live recording for Virtual Burning Man 2021. Completely selected on the fly. 

This curation is something different for me. Yet, it embodies well my ongoing curiosities. Most of this music is influenced by the strongly emerging Amapiano/Gqom/Afrobeat culture we are witnessing at this time. The novel grooves, rhythm complexities, staccato, syncopated punchiness, raw power and fire inducing feelings; Take notice, this is a strong movement. 

Please comment for track ID.

Deep Cleaning

My set from Stacks 2022 hosted by @40hz Soundsystem on a sandy beach in the Ontario north.

Big love out to the soundsystem family and all who kicked up sand with me in front of the fat stack.  xoxo

JUNCT!ON

“Die Dark Hell” plunges into the raw, unfiltered chaos of a tortured mind—melding industrial rage, darkwave synths, and aggressive metal undertones. This track is a sonic descent into inner torment, rebellion, and the craving for escape when light feels like a lie. Turn it loud. Let it consume you.

DIE DARK HELL

Push Me Now

Pleasure putting this mix together for Kuma and the folks at Art of Beatz (https://www.mixcloud.com/ArtOfBeatz/ ) last night.
Recorded on unceded and traditional Sinixt Territory and broadcasted from the unceded and traditional territory of the Coast Salish peoples–Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations.

Deep slow bass into rolling melody-cloud heart-music land 💌 some tracks you’ve heard me play, and some new ones.

As many of you know, Feb is Black History Month and it is without a grain of doubt that every track in here has been created or influenced by black culture and people. We can honour the Black community and their contributions to the art we cherish so dearly by checking the link in my bio for an expansive list of resources, places we can call/donate, and petitions we can sign. If you like what you hear in the mix, please check the tracklist to support artists directly! If you’re listening from a phone and can’t see the list, or if ever there are questions about a track in a mix, please comment or DM me! I will always tell you what it is.
Much love 🕯
