Juanita's Mix 072 with Kiernan Laveaux @kiernan-laveaux

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. A girl doing their best to channel kindness, fun, & understanding throughout our known universe

Some ways other people have described me: Conductress of Chaos, Rockstar with a kind soul, Patroness of free divers


Q. How long have you been a part of the dance music community?
A. Since 2014, right after I graduated high school & started to help throw parties in Cleveland - almost like a whole decade now which is wild.

My relationship to it all continues to shift & grow but my life would be so much worse & empty without dancing & the people I've met thru it.


Q. Tell us about this mix.
A. So this mix is a super special one for me, composed of broken beat records I've picked up in NYC, but also Detroit & online. I've been really fortunate to be able to come to New York to play & see loved ones over the past few years, many of those times I'd end up leaving with a stack of these records in between some necessary laughs & growth in life. Every track in here honestly contains a snapshot of times I've felt able to really live my life & the people who've helped me realize we can all do that together - very much part of my soundtrack to feeling the sun & love around me in NYC.

Broken beat is a really special style of music for me - I was first introduced to it through Titonton Duvante & Charles Noel (Archetyp) through the way it influenced them in creating their unique vision of midwest techno that in turn has influenced a lot of my approach to music. 
The way that broken beat combines & dissolves so many eras of music (drum n bass, hip hop, 70s fusion, R&B, dub, etc) into new continuums is endlessly inspiring - always focusing on community, personal insight, celestial unknowns, the depths of life & self, the joys of moving with people, cultivating togetherness in a way that always makes me feel better after listening. 
Whenever I am having a weird day or don't know what music to play at home, I bust out my stack of broken beat records & just start mixing - this mix is very much a no thoughts vibes only kinetic result of that. 
I hope it can help soothe the mind & spirit for anyone else listening - a distillation of joy in the complicated world we share.

Included a thorough tracklist for this, really recommend checking any & all of these artists/tracks + the labels People, Main Squeeze, 2000black, Bitasweet, Archive, Co-Operation... the list goes on!
What is also really amazing about this music to me is the self contained but like infinite universe it's in, all sorts of producers & vocalists gliding in & out of each other's music - exchanging energy under all different names & sounds. Much love & respect to everyone whose music is in here & to everyone whose music will be in mixes like this in the future <3

@Call-Super's mix, named Mermaid Leap, in inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem of the same name. The Mermaid appears towards the end of the session, stay tuned and enjoy.

The jewelry released with this mix is inspired by Call Super’s infatuation with the form and purpose of kettles/teapots. He finds their purpose deeply satisfying and universal in a way that makes him feel calm, soft, and at one with the world.
