Hi friends,

Ron Like Hell is my favorite DJ. He's also a truly kind soul, a consistent source of inspiration, and a friend.

I met Ron at the Lot Radio several years ago, during his tenure as buyer at Academy Records. It was almost summer and already hot. I remember seeing a tall figure with a large brimmed hat cutting a dark shape in the sun, like a friendly Jordowosky character arriving with a big bag of records from the horizon of Norman Ave. His set that day was mind expanding for me, psychedelic, jamming and guitar forward, yet revealed almost nothing of the damage he could do to a club system. This is the miracle of Ron's DJing: his uncanny ability to deliver a jaw dropping plethora of sounds, between mixes and within them; to be comfortable in an enormous range of styles, and yet always true to himself. It always sounds like Ron.

Among the club memories that kept me going through 2020 was one of hearing Ron play at Wrecked, the music-first queer dance party he runs with collaborator Ryan Smith, during their Basement residency. It was a slamming journey that kept me dancing into the morning hours (the party goes to at least 6am). Memories of the club's flood lights rushing the darkness periodically throughout the night, revealing the bodies around me, locked with me in sound, became a touchstone of hope in a quiet and difficult year.

Ron approaches a DJ mix as an assemblage, aligning sound with emotion, focusing on texture to create psychedelic soundscapes, imaginative spaces for comfort and surprise spectators with an unexpected crafty transition, many of which you will hear many in his Bliss Point mix - a "light sweat / mushroom tea in the woods" vibe, in Ron's own words. Beyond this mix, you can hear Ron play monthly on his Lot Radio residency, at  the off-the-wall Pride party he will be playing this month, or find him and Ryan on the coveted cover of the latest Love Injection fanzine, celebrating their ten celebrated years as Wrecked.

There's so much I could say about Ron and his work. It's more than I can fit in a newsletter, but when we meet on one of his dance floors, I'll be glad to tell you the rest. For myself and so many other DJs in NY he has been a beacon of passion, professionalism, and a true loving-kindness, the best kept secret you could never keep to yourself. 

Enjoy,
Max

Furtive is a full-gonzo polychromatic rave conjurer and relentless creative tinkerer. A Philadelphia-based producer, DJ, and occasional event organizer with over a decade of experience in the studio, Furtive's production wizardry has allowed them to land releases on a variety of US and overseas labels, along with a slew of tracks on VA compilations and dozens of self-released cuts. Furtive’s body of work comprises psychedelic warphole-diving techno, quirky and muscular electro, acerbic acid tracks, crooked bass bits, moving ambient atmospheres, and drum & bass bin-rattlers. Furtive cut their teeth as a DJ and promoter in Washington, DC’s warehouses, where they also played a turnkey role in putting on some of the District’s zaniest techno parties. As a DJ, they’ve supported internationally celebrated no-nonsense acts and held court in dingy local watering holes - always with eclectic selections and a steadfast focus on pacing and dynamics, regularly jumping genres to build moving and impactful sets. Beyond the fog and strobe lights, Furtive creates art in a variety of mediums, including linocuts, render art, inky drawings, and occasionally tattooing.

Notes on the Mix ///
"This mix is sparkly, fun, and a little wild, progressing from warm and uplifting sun-shiney booty shakers to clattering stompers and rounded out with some glossy melodrama. I initially wanted to stay rooted in light-hearted, bright, and wiggly material to warm up recent winter doldrums, but I absolutely had to throw in a few fun, slightly unhinged curveballs to keep things spicy and to make you laugh and yearn."

A little slice of the Midwest from Pittsburgh artist Davis Galvin. 

Coming through the exciting new wave of artists in the US, Davis Galvin has previously released on Vanity Press Records and Firm Tracks as well as contributing tracks to Physically Sick 3, Buk The System, and Banoffee Pies Records compilations. Known for being ‘a bit off kilter’, Galvin’s mix is filled with wiggly, hypnotic melodies and sugary sweet house jams - all pulled together whilst drinking wine and cooking with housemates.

Untitled 909 Podcast 049: Davis Galvin

Celebrating the 25th mix with a special 2 hours long "ambient / electronica journey" from the man that has been running Neroli since over 20 years. Welcome Volcov (@neroli). Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Ciao Enrico, congratulations with your 50th release, such a milestone and with a beautiful compilation too that is. 20 years deep in running Neroli, how do you look back to it now? 

V: Thank you! In 2000 I started Neroli on my own and since then that has been my baby. Apart from the music itself, I think a great relationship with your distributor is essential to make things work, and I’ve been lucky during all these years [mostly Goya, RH and Syncrophone along the way and now Mother Tongue]. I always liked the role of ‘curator’ and I was always fascinated by certain collectable labels like ART/OPart, Retroactive, B12 so to start mine was the next step.. There were a lot of different moments and phases but I think the main thing is that is essential to stay true to your own story! I have to say that the making of The First Circle was a real pleasure and, although it might have been unexpected by some people, for the ones who know me well it really describes my musical journey.

MFM: While Neroli mainly focuses on the deeper and soulful side of electronic music, you were a drum 'n bass head before that, right?

V: Not really, I was always a so called ‘house head’ since I started buying Trax, Alleviated, Lil Louis, Nu Groove and so on in the late 80s/early 90s. Across the 90s, like many, I got also interested in other styles and sounds as long as they were exciting wether it was Mo Wax, Plaid, Reinforced or Photek. The thing with drum n bass was that I did my first productions in that style and I got booked to play dnb gigs on the back of that in ‘97/98. But in ’99 I started an Archive night at this amazing squat club called Pergola and that was an eclectic affair with guests like Dego, Phil Asher, Ian O’Brien, etc.

MFM: The catalogue looks very much like a close family of artists, lots of them having a long history in music and with only a few newer faces. How come is that?

V: The catalogue is a mix of releases by some longtime friends like Dego [who always had an essential role on Neroli], Just One/Kemetic Just or Alex Attias as well as some artists we met along the way and ended up releasing several records with us [Trinidadian Deep, Ricardo Miranda, Lee Pearson jr for example] or younger producer whom I really believed in like Skymark, Marcello Napoletano, Deenamic. I think its especially the continuity along the years with certain artists that can be a bit unusual compared to other labels. We have just released now the Theo Parrish reinterpretations of Patrick Gibin/Kaidi Tatham/Josh Milan ‘Love to the World’ but in April we’ll have an EP by another artist never been on the label before.

MFM: You're quite at ease with doing mixes, without a crowd, right? Is there a certain way to how you approach recording?

V: Well, as much I am at ease recording these type of mixes at home as much I find almost impossible to do some with dance material. Most of my ‘dance’ mixes online are live from clubs. Usually when I approach ambient/jazz/electronica radio shows and podcasts I have accumulated a little pile of records in a corner that I think should be included in the next one, stuff that comes to mind almost on a daily bases. So then I just need to go through them and try to make them ‘talk to each other’.

MFM: Your mixes tend to have a really strong story telling kinda vibe. This one's no exception. Did you have a specific narrative in mind?

V: Since MFM asked, and you guys just released the excellent ‘Virtual Dreams’ album, I imagined to somehow do an ambient / electronica selection since I had fond memories of those times, buying records at Fat Cat, playing chill out rooms in the 90s and so on…. I thought of certain songs that I wanted to include and tried to create a little journey with them…
