Deep Sea Capitalism

Niko Demus - Foundation FM (UK) - 09/05/23

this 60-minute mixtape consolidates the findings of my latest research dedicated to works 1990-2013 bodied by the politic voice, mind and unmistakable sensuality of vanessa daou, the new york-based intellectual, poet, song/writer, singer, sage, fellow vassar alum and just overall muse boss

○

yin side (leaves of love)
"for seeing the world with heightened acuity"

100% daou. an essential oil blend of the effortless, the sexual, the intellectual. tested and diffused at sexy café. feel and dance

vanessa daou - a thousand licks
the snapshots foundation - vanessa daou interview part one [excerpt]
the daou - the way
vanessa daou - flower of my fears
critical rhythm, jango thriller & vandal - it could not happen (essential trancehall mix)
vanessa daou - lovechild
vanessa daou - honey in a jar
vanessa daou - becoming a nun 2.0 (koded vocal dub mix)
vanessa daou - one thing i'm missing 
vanessa daou - goodbye

Upon hearing Danny Tenaglia's Valley Of The Daou Mix of Vanessa Daou's "Two to Tango" (1996) for the first time on Side A: Trippin' On Love of @octoocta's Love Hypnosis Vol. 2 Mixtape (2022), I was entranced by its lyrics and vocals alike. This led me to spend some time researching the library of works by @vanessadaou, someone whose effortless expression of the word I've come to deeply resonate with in the past year, and to whom I wholly dedicate this consolidation of findings.

On the subject of revolution, Daou says, "[h]ow we choose to interact with the world around us is and will always be an individual, often a personal decision, but the personal and political are ever-increasingly intersecting. There is no longer much, if any, separation between what happens outside in the world and what happens inside ourselves." Yin Yang Vol. 1 marks my third homemade tape to date. I'd like to trust each release (in every sense of the word) takes a stand *for* something in a nature rife with opposites and opposition, for there is always something to stand for, and to be said for. Right now, then or later, at base, is the matter of standing in solidarity with those down with the struggle for liberation. There really is no other way. Stop the genocide in Gaza now. End the siege on Gaza. Free Palestine. And free your fucking minds. Free us all—

a little life

Recording of bod [包家巷] set from HUM/ГУЛ event (07/23/24), which took place at the Brukxt. 

With this visit to Ukraine, bod [包家巷] supports our local scene in difficult times. We appreciate it. That DJ performance was filled with a fresh look on modern leftfield music and the performance was like an audio ninja dance, so the BRUKXT walls were shrouded in mysticism and powerful energy, where the artist completely owned the dance floor for 1.5 hours.

HUM w/ bod [包家巷] @ Brukxt - 23/06/2024

yin yang vol. 2: music for job hunting is music for late nights at the desk, as the eyes begin to sour... 

side a quickly took form soon after learning that most of sf salt bay ponds, which caught my eye earlier this year on an sfo-bound flight, is owned by cargill inc, the largest privately-owned, multinational agri-corp in the world. had no idea. also learned that two salt miners were killed in a roof collapse in the now-closed cargill avery island salt mine back in december of 2020

then fast forward to sifting through extensive footage of the pittston coal strike circa '89-'90 j sitting on youtube >> the croaky yet unflinching voice that is florence reece belting the question of the hour, of which side you're on >> the emmylou harris >> jean ritchie bewitching tvs of 1986 into a dark light. side b plays with it in terms of "recent" music

Not a Valentine’s Day mix.

Featuring tracks from Kingdom, Nguzunguzu, Yves Tumor, ADAMAS, and more...

If it’s not clear enough—this mix is an ode to the dramatic, tragic, and choir-driven club sounds of the 2010s. This was such a blast to put together, so who knows? Maybe a follow-up is coming in a future episode.

Hope you enjoy it—thanks for listening!
