The Lot Radio Residency: Human Pitch

Juanita's mix 51 with Simisea @simisea

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. Sugar, spice, and everything nice.

Q. How long have you been a part of the NYC music scene?
A. I’ve been a part of it for as long as I’ve lived here, which is 10 years now. Before that I was working in nightclubs & for promoters in Miami, my hometown, before I moved to NYC to go to music school. The music communities I’ve been a part of here have been my life & family for the past decade. I don’t really know that I can do anything else but work in music. I’ve had a few different music jobs throughout the last decade, but currently I work at the record label RVNG Intl. which has been my musical home for the last 6 years. There I project manage records and manage artists. I also run my own label with Tristan Arp called Human Pitch, and run another label and party series with my pals Enayet, K Wata and rrao called SLINK.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. This mix is my love letter to summer, my favorite season. Just as I was about to begin pulling tracks, I came across a beautiful book called Summer Solstice by Nina MacLaughlin. It’s a heartwarming essay exploring the meaning of summer in our lives. A perfect and inspirational coincidence that this book and I would find each other for this mix.

In this mix is a full summer day and all of its possibilities….Waking up to a balmy summer morning, sun bouncing off leaves from vines desperately trying to crawl through your apartment window. A cold shower to rinse off the dewy night’s sweat. It’s hot out. A stroll outside, thick humidity filling your lungs. A car ride to the beach with friends, windows down. Nothing beats a summer ride to the ocean; the perfect amount of time to listen to a mix. A BBQ in the park; a loud PA system blaring summer’s ecstatic joy. Sunset…an endless pastel New York sky that stops everyone in their tracks, no matter how many summer days they’ve seen come to a close. You feel cute, you’re kissing your newly blossomed summer crush. Is this the best day ever? Is this summer better than the last? An evening out with friends. What’s the move? Too many. You're unstoppable. Stumbling into bed, full moon so bright your cheap window shades don’t do shit; but it’s ok, you lay there and reminisce on a beautiful summer Saturday. “I have so many more left”….You wake up abruptly the next morning to a knock at the door. Fall is here.

Juanita's Mix 051: Simisea

SLINK is back with Volume 2: four distinct club tracks, one by each resident.

Lascivious dub, percussive drill with live dhol, a coy vox flip and a peak time wormhole. One for the freaqs!

Human Pitch With Simisea & La Duni @ The Lot Radio 09 - 10 - 2022

On Friday night, @simisea detfly took Hemlock Hole into his zone of deep bass and slippery club rhythms. 'Equal parts booty and brain',  Simisea displayed a beautifully wide range of club sounds, The DJ Gregory into  'MOTOMAMI' by ROSALÍA moment being a huge highlight.

Campout Mix Series: Simisea

SLINK (@simisea, @turiyarrao, @itsenayet, and @kwatakwata) went b4b all night at our favorite club Nowadays on Jan 21st. Without a doubt, one of the most fun sets we've ever played and the dancers were riding the wave with us the entire night.

This is us in peak party mode! We couldn't figure out where to start and stop this recording, and ultimately decided, let's just post the whole thing :)

With love,
Simisea, rrao, K Wata, Enayet

HUMAN PITCH @ The Lot Radio 11-18-2023

Transmissions From Planet Groovy — Simsea [@simisea] (Recorded on 09/23/23)

Words from Simisea:

Groovy Groovy is one of the few nights where as a DJ, I know I’ll be held and supported by the dancers, organizers and community surrounding it no matter what journey I take them on. Tracing my journey of going to Groovy for many years, to collaborating with them on parties, to now playing the party for the first time this past September, I realized my Groovy arc has been fulfilled. Coming into this set off the back of a reinvigorating and inspiring time at Sustain-Release just the weekend prior, I had a lot of creative energy to exchange at Groovy. “Sexy party,” as Akanbi often says on the mic, is what I wanted to share, and I feel I accomplished that in what became one of my favorite sets I’ve played <3 Give it a listen and hope you enjoy! “Sexxyyyy paaartyyyy!”

@simisea

Hoping everyone is staying safe and healthy out there! With our parties on hold for the time being, we’re starting a mix series to shine a light on DJs pushing slinked-out sounds from across the globe. 

Our very own resident Simisea is up first with an hour of nonstop rhythmic motion.

"To inaugurate our SLINK mix series I made a mix exploring what “slink” means to me. Equal parts booty and brain (the way I like it!) the mix explores various tempos, rhythmic patterns, and layers of electronic music from around the world. There are moments of freaked and fried pop mutations, moments of darkness emerging into neon light, and moments I imagined slipping out of my skin on the dancefloor to. It’s my favorite mix I’ve made and emblematic of where my musical interests are at these days. Hope you enjoy <3 SLINK Responsibly" - xoxo, Simisea

SLINK MIX 001 - Simisea

This edition of Bleep’s mix series finds @simisea (Brandon Sánchez) from @igetrvng leading us on a deep dive into both the label’s own releases and music admired by those involved with the acclaimed imprint. As anyone familiar with the RVNG Intl. aesthetic might expect, this is a varied and expansive set of blends - across almost fifty-five minutes here Simisea takes in widescreen spiritual music, outer-edges electronics, dreamy post-jazz, harmonious folk-rock and pretty much everything in-between. The fact that Lucrecia Dalt, Coil, Sugai Ken and The Soft Pink Truth are just a few of the artists to feature should indicate how this mix manages to strike a great balance between compositional ambition and lush sonics. It all makes for a delightful trip. 

"I’ve been wanting to make a non-dance mix for a while. A lot of the music in this mix has comforted me throughout quarantine. It includes tracks that have brought me euphoria, to tears, and all ranges and depths of emotions and states of being, embodying the kind of music I associate with RVNG."

Bleep Mix #135 - Simisea - RVNG Intl. Label Mix
