@jonnynash : It is a selection of music I've been enjoying over the last year, with a loose focus on "guitar music".

Turn on, tune in and don't drop out!

Jonny Nash - Oddity Influence Mix

From Oakland with love comes the 50th submission in the mix series comes by the hand of prolific producer and deejay Space Ghost (@space-ghost-1). Interview (excerpt) down below.

MFM: Hey Sudi. How's life in California, what's been keeping you busy?

SG: Hey, not much! Just trying to enjoy the summer with friends and get in the studio when I can.

MFM: Looking at your discography it seems that you favor the LP over the EP format, having released well over a dozen albums. How come?

SG: I can’t say that I favor one over the other, just seems that as a musician you strive to write full length LPs. I enjoy LPs for home listening and it feels good to create a nice body of work that flows through a journey. Writing dance singles and eps are trickier for me. It feels harder to write 1-4 really good stand alone songs.

MFM: With such a prolific output, does writing music come easily to you? Can you tell us a bit about how you go about writing and recording, is there a certain flow or method?

SG: Hmm I wouldn’t necessarily say it comes comes easy but I’ve definitely gotten a lot better at getting ideas in my head out into my recordings. It’s still a process of getting into the studio and spending time on it. Sometimes I can spend a whole day or two just spinning my wheels and not being able to get my ideas out. But once I get that perfect dose of creativity and I’m in the right mood, then things can definitely start flowing out. When writing music I often need to start with a very specific idea based on a song I’m listening to at the time. It’s helpful for me to start out with that initial inspiration, whether some chords, style of drums, bassline or a tempo or something. Once I get a few elements working around that idea the song can start to morph and move in any direction, but I really need that specific direction to start. I find that I can often make a rudimentary idea fairly quickly this way and then if it’s inspiring me, I’ll start to try a little bit harder and flush out more of the idea.

MFM: How do you cope with not being inspired or motivated when in the studio?

SG: Honestly it can be a bummer to be in the studio and the ideas aren’t flowing. I’ll just have to step away and do something totally unrelated for a few days.

MFM: Your sound overall has a very soft and melodic touch. The mellow part may be from living close to the Pacific and nature, but where does the melodic part come from? Did you ever learn how to read and play notes?

SG: You know I’m really not sure if I can pinpoint my melodies and where they came from but ya I grew up taking music lessons of all sorts. Piano, drums, guitar, band class, all that stuff. I wasn’t the best at reading music, I learned basic stuff but eventually didn’t progress much farther. Now everything I do is by feel.

MFM: Is there some kind of masterplan for Space Ghost? Like, do you have certain goals to achieve or dreams to chase?

SG: I think my master plan would involve me getting to focus on writing music full time. Honestly I’m not really sure how to get there specifically, seems like everyone gets there on their own path so hopefully mine will end up there as well.

MFM: Tell us about the mix. How did you go about selecting and recording it? Does it have a certain theme or idea to it?

SG: I’ve been wanting to put out a nice lil ambient sort of electronic mix for awhile. Really soft deep introspective vibes. I’ve been holding on to a lot of these tunes for awhile and just listening to my playlist of ambient tunes while traveling or relaxing with friends. After coming back from my NZ/Australian tour, I was ready to play some non dance music for a sec and listen to some other stuff. This mix is just a nice break from DJing a party. I also really want to make an ambient album soon if I have the time, so there are a lot inspirations in this mix.

Reencuentros Nº3

it's been a while... and we're back with a gentle bang a.k.a. a mix of the amazing Sanky @sankywashere!! 
Many of you will have had the pleasure to dive into his selections at other sites. Being a fan for a good while I dared to ask him for a mix and now we installed a window to his universe here at the bin too! As I always enjoyed the variety and finesse of his mixes I asked for his musical background and Sanky was so nice to share this with us: 
"My mother was a piano teacher and sometimes practiced with various classical musicians who were playing at city hall so the house almost always had strange, orchestral sounds emanating from the dusty front room. I can't play a note of piano as my hands don't seem to want to work together as 10 fingers but I can play some wind instruments and loved learning the trumpet, these strange organic sounds are something that I now realize feature heavily when out looking for records, weird sounds seem to mean as much as beautiful lyrics these days. I also think the varied pace of classical from Adagio all up to Presto might have influenced me more than I thought too. I've never really understood music in terms of bpm's but more on feeling. I'm 51 and I feel really lucky to grow up in a pre internet world on rare soul and jazz, boogie, soundtracks, samples and hip hop which provided another view of how incredibly different music really can be. Hearing Colin Curtis screaming down the mic at age 15 playing Margie Evans “Waterfalls” or watching David Mancuso drop “Whole Lotta Love” after Tamiko Jones “Can’t Live Without Your Love’ at 6pm in the afternoon and watch people lose their minds are things I feel truly lucky to have witnessed, genius at work for sure.
 
I just still look out for the oddness, especially on 7” as there is still so much undiscovered music there but also something that sounds familiar even when it’s not. I live in Mexico now and again due to what I hear day to day in the street (not just necessarily music) changes what I collect, the feeling of life here is softer and slower so this mix might have a piece of that in it. I hope you listen to the mix all the way through in a comfortable place you feel happy to be in. It has some of my most favorite records I play over and over…big love.

Let me know if you want to know what any of the tracks are and thanks to the main man Basso who’s been an inspiration for years. 

Cocktails on the beach for all…x

Dedicated to My Mother Kate. RIP."

THANKS SO MUCH SANKY!!!

Dream Chimney 'Mix of the Week'

Mix of the Week #567: Bobby Myseh - In the Right Place

Music From Mullets #24 starts into 2025 with two hours dedicated to Ambient and New Age, maybe with a little folky, sometimes even spiritual impact. The second hour comes with a guest mix straight from the bin @growingbinrecords –– Basso has been a musical inspiration since many many years and lots of his early YT uploads are still some of my long-time favorite records. This is gonna be an episode to either stretch out on your yoga mat or curl up next to your cat. It will gently massage your eardrum.

This show originally aired on Cashmere Radio on January 8, 2025.
