A: Live edge, live wire

Q: Describe the story behind Razrbark's Specific Heat.

A: Specific Heat measures how resistant (or not) substances are to temperature changes, specifically how much energy is needed to raise the temperature of something by one degree. This concept from chemistry has always stuck with me and is something I thought of after listening to the finished product of this mix/let's be real I just think it sounds cool.

When I first started prepping for this mix, I went in a very different direction and had a rough draft, but it felt tedious, trying to force ideas and tracks in a way that required a lot of energy with little output. Sometimes, things pour out of you and sometimes, they don't. 

One day, a very exciting booking came through (spoiler alert: it was Honcho @ Hot Mass). With the adrenaline rush of the booking, I immediately started mixing tracks from the extremes of my USB, and everything flowed really easily. I decided to hit record, and it came together in a way that felt much more organic. I also unearthed many tracks I had forgotten about that were collecting cobwebs on my stick but that I always loved.

Anyway, all this to say, just like in chemistry, sometimes you need the right conditions for a reaction to truly take off~~~

Q: What is your ideal dancefloor (fictional or real).

The Bronze.

Q: When is the last track that made subs glow for you?

A: Two specific tracks come to mind:
https://snappedankles.bandcamp.com/track/come-play-the-trees-crooked-ankles-2
To me this is the perfect track. I played it at Hot Mass in Pittsburgh sometime after 6am a bit slower than this. I love how it has so much raw power behind it. Big chug NRG. I've always loved this song from the same band. It has a very Iggy Pop/Plastic Bertrand sensibility to it, but I've never been able to play it on a dance floor, so I was happy when I found this edit that is a bit more dance floor friendly and still has the rock/dance vibe that I feel is a hallmark of my sound.

Another track:
I just played this song towards the end of my set at Afterlife in Seattle this weekend. The bass was so intense my drink literally bounced across a table and fell to the floor. I'd say the subs were glowing hard.

Q: What track/artist was a musical game-changer for you?

A: Föllakzoid. It's psych rock, it's techno, it's everything. Each time I've seen them play, it's world-building and expansive. 

Q: If this mix was a book or a movie what would it be? 

A: It would be in Walk Hard Part 2, when Dewey goes through his drum and bass era.

re:lax with laksa - 02 June 2025

seed003 has been taken on by bristol mainstay, SSSLIP. boundary pushing, known for 'obscure soundscapes', and adverse to colouring in the lines of genre bases ~ was obviously gassed to see what was produced for this one 

what has followed i couldn't be happier with, a raw ~ honest and deeply personal insight into a momentous part of the artist's life. it's a place that i (and i'm sure many others) have either found ourselves, or strive to get to. thank you for this honesty and insight into the corners of your mind <3 

'a realm of chaos entangled in excitement, neutrality entwined in abrupt rhythmic fantasy. 

this mix represents, for me, navigating the dance music industry, dance floors and spaces as a sober participant. moments of uncertainty mixed with absolute clarity, profoundness and hopelessness, finding your groove and losing sense of self: anticipation and acceptance.

it’s a complete juxtaposition of itself, intended to sooth and provoke thought. no matter how slow or intense the track is, just like an emotion, you need to listen in its entirety - feeling it fully. 

take it as you like - a timeline through a day in the mind, a day per track, an emotion per shift in tone, each selection intended to evoke a response in thought pattern. 

emotionally and symbolically it’s the deepest I’ve dived in a mix, aimed at a glimpse into the chaotic and calm realm of anyone’s mind - an everyday struggle and guidance through anticipation and acceptance. 

throughout, I find a new approach to mixing, one that mirrors a new approach I take to my outlook on everything. It’s flutters of emotion, fleeting, extravagant, solemn, chaotic, intense, serene, uplifting, confusing, all at once and all separately.

i hope it brings you some meaning or understanding of the small things, everyday.' 

this is what anticipation > acceptance sounds like to SSSLIP. 

big love,
ray and SSSLIP x
