Description: Live opening the Bad Room at @goodroombk for @the-carry-nation.

Our 72nd Moods mix comes from Sam Hooker (@tarpit-michigan), label head of Two Rooms Records and staff at the beloved People’s Records on Gratiot Avenue in the heart of Detroit. Sam’s mix calls back to his suburban younger years searching for the rare, weird, and out-of-place. Local radio spun the legends before us, whispering to him the underground ethos on CDs, tapes, and records. This mix is an ode to them: the people committed to digging, discovering, and redefining the sound of today; or, the “Midwest Freaks.”

We’ve paired Sam’s mix with a still from Sky Hopinka’s film Fainting Spells. Sam and Sky both have a dedicated practice to understanding context, history, and topographies—visible or invisible, singular or multiple, Detroit or Indigenous. We think listening to Sam’s mix in between watching Sky’s films is a strong audiovisual pairing.

Massive thank you to DJ, label owner, top selector and general enthusiast Brian for putting together this effortlessly loose, trippy mix ahead of our Spirit of Eden 3 day gathering in September.
Skipping through off kilter house and techno, with ample use of dubby effects he creates a hypnotic and slightly psychedelic journey but always with a solid groove and one eye on the dancefloor.

Brian Not Brian - Prelude To Eden

Hello and welcome to my kitchen. I am Tony Giambrone, a descendant of Italians on my father's side. Here is how I make red sauce. I wish I could say that it was a family recipe. Instead it borrows heavily from alt-comedian Eric Wareheim's Nonna Sauce, with some modifications and some key instructions on incorporating your sauce with the pasta. It is a great, easy, meatless meal to make for friends and family. I hope that it pairs well with the music I have selected, which starts with jazz to help those alliums simmer and lands with an italo-disco chef's kiss, traversing many records that I love to listen to while I cook in between. I hope you love it as much as I love you.

Ingredients:

1 box of your favorite pasta 
1/2 cup high quality olive oil
One large yellow onion
One head of garlic with nice big cloves
A couple of leaves of basil
2 large cans of whole peeled San Marzano tomatoes 
Oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper
A wedge of fresh parmesan cheese

Method:

1. Gather 4 to 6 friends at whoever’s house has the most comfortable kitchen.
2. If you drink alcohol, make a round of Americanos:
Fill a short glass with ice. Add one part Campari, one part sweet Vermouth, and two parts soda water. Garnish with an orange peel. Give it a quick whirl around the rim of the glass before you twist it and drop it into the drink. Fragrance is half the battle.
3. Hit play on the mix that accompanies this recipe
4. Dice your onion and garlic (the whole damn head!)
5. Heat the olive oil in a dutch oven or large sauce pan over very low heat. Add the garlic and a few basil leaves. Let it simmer for about ten minutes to infuse the garlic and basil into the oil. Be careful not to let the garlic burn! Stir often. 
6. Remove the garlic and basil from the oil and set aside.
7. Turn the heat up to medium and add the onion. Simmer for another ten minutes until the onion is translucent and soft. 
8. Add back in your garlic and basil as well as a pinch of oregano, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste. 
9. Add your tomatoes. Turn up the heat until the sauce starts to boil, then lower it to a gentle simmer. Start to gently crush the tomatoes against the side of the pot. Careful! They have a tendency to squirt their juices at you. Never wear a white shirt while you’re cooking sauce!
10. If you have a parmesan rind lying around for some reason, don’t be afraid to toss that in there for some added flavour.
11. Let the sauce simmer for at least an hour, until the tomatoes have broken down and the whole thing takes on a nice chunky but smooth consistency. Keep an eye on it and stir occasionally. 
12. Cook your pasta in a big pot of salted water until it’s just below al dente.
13. Reserve a cup of pasta water. 
14. Drain the pasta and add it back into the pot you cooked it in over low heat. 
15. Add a generous amount of your sauce to the pot. Stir it heartily for about a minute, slowly adding a few splashes of pasta water, until the noodles are coated in the sauce. 
16. Turn off the heat. Drizzle in some more olive oil, and grate some parmesan into it. Continue to stir until everything is combined. 
Serve with fresh basil and more fresh grated parmesan to garnish.
17. Consider serving with a side arugula salad, roasted vegetables, chicken thighs, eggplant parmesan… the list goes on! Mangia!
