Following a brief summer break the Messy Mix returns and I’m happy to have a true personal favourite on board for its ninth edition. The music of Alice Costelloe has been an important part of my life for more than a decade now, mainly through the three albums of her previous band Big Deal. That voice still does something with my heart so I’m happy that she recently returned with her first pretty lovely solo EP called “So Neurotic”. And I’m even happier that she took part in my little mixtape project.

The story Costelloe tells is one of friendship and the musical family that surrounds her. Her mix consists of tracks and artists that were recommended to her by these kind people and who ended up playing a crucial part in her life. Well, but I’ll let her explain it in her own words:

“Ever since I was a child, wonderful people in my life have introduced me to the music that has shaped my tastes and my memories of those time. There are some special songs from my childhood on this mix. ‘From a Jack to a King’ was what my dad used to sing me to sleep with and Fats Waller’s ‘Your feet’s too big’ my grandad would joshingly sing at me as a child with very large feet. 

The scrappy Jonathan Richman song on this mix was sent to me by an older friend when I was a teenager and it completely blew my mind. I loved how imperfect it was with his pitchy nasal voice and the scrappy guitars and that totally changed the way I thought about and approached music.


Touring with my old band Big Deal I discovered so many beautiful songs that our drummers and bassists introduced me too. Arthur Russel ‘a little lost’ is one of those songs that holds a special place in my heart. As is ’The Babies’ record from 2012 ‘Our house on the hill’. We played a show with them in Paris and exchanged albums at the end of the night, and we blasted this record out the stereo all around Europe, so it feels like a time capsule of that time.

Playing in Superfood was also a real musical awakening and introduced me to bands I’d never engaged with, like Gorillaz ‘On Melancholy hill’ which totally passed me by when it was originally released.

My partner is always showing me songs he knows I’ll love, most recently this has been Youth Lagoon’s new album ‘Heaven is a junkyard’ that I’m obsessed with. I put ‘Rabbit’ in the mix but every track is so brilliant I could have chosen any one of them.
Right now we’re on tour in Europe and have all been loving  ‘a little bit of shmilsen in the night’ by Harry Nilsen in the van so one of his tracks closes the mixtape.”

So, this time you’re getting a mixtape in a pure oldschool sense and it truly is a fun ride. I Hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do. And make sure to check out the sweet songs of @alcostelloe as well.

Recorded to cassette with fourtrack

I’m starting something in my head called October Drones I hope to make a tradition for myself.  It’s where I make drone music in October.  There’s something very autumnal about drones for me, the looming threat of winter, the hypnotic sway of changing leaves by the innumerable.  When I was kid my parents listened a folk compilation CD called When October Goes, so the name is a play on that, or maybe that’s why it sounds cool to me.  
I love how focusing on a single aspect on an instrument or the effects and looping amplifies to have significant consequences and it’s fun to see how small of a change can dilate into the biggest ripple.   The drones aren’t pretty because I really don’t know what I’m doing, but when I feel like I’ve been swimming through a real place in my head, then I know the hallowed drone has been achieved.  

What’s most important to me is first not fuxking up the suspension of reality, and secondly is dynamics.  Like reconciling how much change there can be within a set range, like all the different combinations of cars filling up the  highway at any different moment.  
There must be some frequency that is activated in the brain because sometimes when I listen to them back I hear very much they are not perfect, but also though I am embarrassed to admit it, find myself becoming almost involuntarily emotional.  I’m not saying this would happen to anyone else but that relationship to sound is also what I’m trying to capture and express here.

Is She Really Gone (October Drone #1)

Drone.  Analog synth.  Making these drones help distract me from bad feelings.  Four track to cassette tape.

I Don’t Wanna Get Over You (October Drone #4)

Not Coming Back (October Drone #3)

Guitar in the afternoon, tears in the evening

Do You Ever Think About Me (October Drone #2)

Just a work in prog so I can listen back and get vocal ideas

Green Eyed Slouch Instrumental

I had one track left and should have added bass or vocals, and should have played guitar louder but I kept being distracted by the fear of bothering my neighbors.  Still may revisit it, I’m trying to label tapes better so I can return to projects.

And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
