Words from Eva: 

As I closed out my reflections on the last 12 months, riding through many positive personal and other emotional vicissitudes, I realized that not many things in the world make us move, think, and feel more than music. Seeing so many talented friends across different parts of the industry reminds me that though we come from different backgrounds, we're all working to make the music world inspiring for creators of all types. I feel so grateful to be able to contribute music that made me happy and hopeful in the last 365 days. 

Reflecting on where my ear and interests currently are, the records included in this mix kept coming back to me, and I've sat with them for an entire year (Thanks for your patience, Alex). After 2-3 months of complete mixing absence, I was overwhelmed with a creative wave earlier this week and recorded the mix. 

It's all over the place, in all its roughness and imperfection, but I am super proud of it and admit I listened to it many times. ❤️

QUIRKS - 24 - Eva

Eva has a knack for finding beauty in unexpected places: a glint of light on a wall, an old record abandoned on a Berlin sidewalk, or a track hidden deep in a dusty Discogs listing. Her musical world is fueled by relentless curiosity, shaped over years spent chasing sounds and inspiration wherever they appear. This led her to launch Selections with Eva in 2015, starting as a Facebook page to share discoveries and connect with fellow music obsessives. The platform quickly stood out from the sea of digger channels emerging at the time, thanks to her impeccable and deeply personal curation spanning everything from 90s hardcore to the deepest house grooves.

A decade on, Eva still shares music regularly, though she’s traded Facebook for Instagram and SoundCloud. Both pages remain a goldmine of new tracks and mixes often spotlighting emerging artists, which is a commitment that runs through all of Eva’s work. Special mention goes to her monthly Chicks on Decks SoundCloud playlist, showcasing online mixes by female DJs who are, in her own words, “continuously pushing boundaries and redefining the electronic music landscape.”

You might expect someone with such dedication to be constantly behind the decks. In reality, Eva’s live appearances and podcasts are rare, which makes her contribution to our series all the special. In this mix she explores the deep, dubby corners of her collection, delivering a fresh take on the minimal and dub house sound that defined the late 00s. Hit play and check out the accompanying interview, where she talks about her journey through electronic music, the story behind Selections with Eva, and the many ways she keeps discovering new sounds.

Simultaneity avec Selection With Eva & Jeyoh - 17 Février 2021

Constantly trying to communicate something incommunicable, to explain something inexplicable, to tell about something I only feel in my bones...
