We’re super excited to present youarenotgoingtoparis as the seventeenth mix in our Sounds of SMUT series! Berlin based Alex has been making quite the name for himself for some time now, as the organiser behind New York-based party ‘Mister Sister’, as well as resident of Brooklyn/Berlin-based queer collective ‘Bleak’, who host their next party is in just two days at Oxi Club in Berlin, alongside collectives Brenn and Subverted. 

This hour-long workout takes you through the parameters of Alex’s sound, one that is powerful, energetic, emotive and propelling. Sounds reminiscent of darkened rooms and ephemeral spaces enrich this mix, with Alex describing it as a ‘hypnotic blend of psychedelic low-end bass, techno and house. [It’s] definitely a journey from beginning to end.’ This driving, hard-groove heavy mix was inspired by no other than Lindsay Lohan, who, in an interview with Oprah, admits to having done coke 10-15 times, and is totally addicted to chaos. The mix embodies this quite iconic set of odds, being in a quite hypnotic atmosphere, progressing towards a heavy, dark and thumping middle, before bumping up to a blissful climax ‘which is just… happy!’.
