This month, we explore the concept of anicca, the Buddhist word for impermanence or change. The mix weaves through sounds that are bombastic vs modest, dark vs light, groovy vs trippy, haunting vs heavenly, and so on...My approach to DJing is to keep sounds and feelings in a constant state of flux, never getting stuck in a single place. I believe a well-crafted mix is a metaphor for life: anicca, anicca...constantly changing, changing...

atish - [043] - april 2014 - anicca

Some words from XLR8R:
"[...] And then there's this podcast. It's one of the most scrumptious, gorgeous sets that XLR8R has run in recent months—which, consider we've hosted mixes from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Audiofly, Dance Spirit, Fort Romeau and Virginia lately, is saying quite a bit. As YokoO explains in the video, the session's emotions run the gamut from joy to sadness, love and loneliness and back again, its soothing passages punctuated with moments of pure drama. In short, it's a musically rich hour of listening pleasure. Our suggestion: Grab a glass of wine (or whatever) and settle in for a while."

I recently found this mix buried in my iTunes. I made it with All Day I Dream in mind around the time the events started in June 2011 (those being the now distant days the title speaks of!). As we drift through winter I thought you might enjoy some twinkles and longing melodies to brighten those grey skies and let a little imagined sunshine in. Close your eyes...



ALL DAY I DREAM OF DISTANT DAYS

I'm happy to finally release my first extended set with you, recorded at StereoBar in Montreal. StereoBar is a club that's quickly jumped onto my shortlist of favorite venues in the world. Beyond the nailing the club fundamentals (sound system, layout, lighting, staff), they feature the "All Night" series where one DJ plays as opener, headliner, and closer. I love this format since it gives me the opportunity to build the energy from scratch and take the night in any direction without constraints.

But more importantly, I get to play for one of the most enthusiastic, supportive crowds that I've ever encountered. The energy from this night was the strongest I've felt in quite some time, certainly my best gig of the last year. Almost everything I threw out there worked, which actually makes me think that I might not have worked hard enough. There are many more sonic landscapes I'd love to explore, so hopefully I can come back again soon and we can take another journey in that special room...

Recorded October 1, 2016
Special thanks to Kora for scrambling to record my set at the last minute!

Tracklist

atish - [063] - october 2016 - live at stereobar, montreal

It was the last morning of the 2016 Burn and there was a small, but beautiful crowd of dedicated burners gathered, as most had already continued back to the outside world. We were feeling very spent, tired, dusty and freezing, but powered through the transition from night until dawn and once the sun broke through, it brought warmth to our bones and it turned into very special morning indeed...

"This podcast marks the end of a chapter, and the beginning of a new one. Yet again, through countless emotions, it retraces some key moments of my life over the last few months . . .
May you appreciate the depths of the journey and relate to it as profoundly as I do.
All Day I Dream of Unity."

All Day I Dream Podcast 013: YokoO - All Day I Dream of Unity

Having spent countless magical nights and mornings on the bot, it was a huge honor to join the 10 Year Anniversary line up among so many talented friends. Our first morning out on the playa, just past sunrise, and the emotions are high! Surrounded by loved ones, this set traverses 10 years of music. Reaching into the deepest and farthest corners of my vast music collection, each song near and dear to my heart <3
