guestmix w/ Venus Volcanism (06.03.23)

I made this mix for my radio show, Mechanical Breakdown on KEXP. I created this mix as a celebration of Skinny Puppy and the band announcing their final tour and this mix aired on Monday, May 8th, 2023. Skinny Puppy played in Seattle the following day at the Paramount Theater.

This is not everything. SP has a HUGE catalog and at the time, I was only working with an hour show. This is the mix I created out of love for one of the most influential bands in industrial music.

Originally broadcast on Ears Have Ears on FBi Radio in Sydney, listen back to the show here: https://fbiradio.com/945fm/programs/ears-have-ears/2019-08-01/

In response to our recent announcement about Ears Have Ears ending on 29 August, Forest Swords has made us an exclusive contribution called 'A Joyful Finale', an uplifting mix themed around the idea that "endings don't always have to be sad occasions."

Hailing from Merseyside in the UK, Forest Swords has collaborated with Massive Attack, remixed Björk, was a recent curator in the DJ-Kicks compilation series, has explored multidisciplinary work in the form of Shrine, a contemporary dance piece, and earlier this year he scored 'Ghosts of Sugar Land', a film that won Best Documentary Short at Sundance Film Festival.

Alex Zhang Huntai – Pierrot
Ben Vince – What I Can See
Kaitlin Aureliya Smith – Stratus

Welcome to the M1ND maze, where disorder trumps order...A place with no coordinate origin, everything here exists only in relation one to another...You may set an evaluation paradigm now, but be cautious of perceiving established patterns as self, cause this maze will shapeshift as you move and in turn, your motion will trigger the shifts...Feel free to explore the degrees to which you trust and your perception...There are plenty of delusions and distortions provided along the way for your entertainment...At any point, you may implement self-sabotage as a control measure or seek shelter in chosen truths...

Take a breath and look at the ground beneath you...Notice how firmly feet are planted, feel the earth supporting you...Now, close your eyes...Feel the swallowing of quicksands...

Open your eyes...

See the thick darkness of the mines...Smell the charcoal...Hear the echoing picks breaking the walls in unison...How deep do you think you are?

Close your eyes again...With inner vision see the moonlight glowing off skin? Stars scattered across the sky? That’s Orion on the left...Watch them shower across the horizon...Make a wish...

Now feel the walls of the maze...Enter the void...Hear the sound of wind over a never-ending cold plane...There never was and never will be anything different...Feel everything rising up to the surface and meet with rational and perfect...

- Is it your first time here? Are you sure?

The answer will be the phantom of rationality who is living here ... It is possible that there will be an impulse to doubt what is happening and likely that it's correct...Yes, it is indeed true...As long as you believe in it...

A string of fears and doubts rises to the heavens like a circular flame, spraying sheaves of intermission sparks...Realize that these are all illusions and remember how indestructible and cold are the steel plates of your armor, holding the promise to deflect from these affective states...

Keep going...You can never know how you got here, where it began and where it ends, and not possible to slow it down or speed it up...

This is stillness — all around...In you...
