The inspiration behind the mix came to me when I was making risotto at home last month. The process of making risotto is very soothing and rhythmic, with the constant stirring that takes place. There's also a certain 'looseness' to it that I find very appealing - in terms of just having to follow your instinct about how much liquid to add and when to do so. I thought back to the first time I made risotto, which was with Joel Pryde at a certain cabin in Gig Harbor when we first went there for Cody and Tara Morrison's bachelor party. We had been partying all weekend, but on that Sunday afternoon Joel made a big batch of risotto, and it was a communal effort, with a few of us taking turns stirring the rice while we talked, drank wine, and listened to music. It was such a memorable cap to a perfect weekend spent with my community, and to me encapsulates the overlap between dance music and sharing food that some of us find inspiration in. So I wanted my mix to reflect the mood of that Sunday afternoon making risotto with friends : hazy, sensual, and rhythmic. I hope people will find comfort listening to this music while making food (and perhaps sharing some wine) with friends.

Joel Pryde's Risotto

The main thing I remember him telling me when we first made it is that you just need to make sure it has a "shit ton of wine" : 

Ingredients:

- 2 cups arborio rice
- 1 white or yellow onion, finely diced
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp saffron
- 100g finely shredded Parmesan
- 1/2 bottle white wine
- 2 pints chicken stock

Steps:

1. Heat large wid pan over medium-low heat.
2. Add oil and butter, let melt
3. Add onion with a few pinches of salt, cook for 3-5 minutes until soft and translucent.
4. Add arborio rice, toast for another 3 minutes.
5. Scrape pan and add some chicken stock and white wine until it looks like the rice is swimming in a shallow pool.
6. Continue to add chicken stock and white wine (in 5/1 ratio or so) while stirring for 20-30 minutes. The rice should continue to absorb the stock/wine mixture, but should be kept swimming by adding more liquid. 
7. When rice has reached an al dente state, and liquid is absorbed, turn off heat.
8. Add Parmesan and saffron while stirring.
9. Salt and pepper to taste.

Kim Anh has long graduated to Club Queen status in both her NYC home and adopted digs of Los Angeles. With a decade in the music game, the DJ, producer and singer-songwriter is at the forefront of the queer club scene in the city.

A deep rooted love of classic old school house, acid and disco is what motivates her musical ventures, be that behind the decks or in the studio. So far her productions have been housed on a slew of acclaimed labels including Deejay Gigolo Records, Robert Johnson Live, EMI and her own Can U Not Talk imprint: a space for her own recordings and collaborations.

When she's not producing or slaying it on vocals, you can find her holding down residencies and hosting events in NYC and LA at the likes of Booby Trap!, YOWSAH and underground party Tendencies.

Her latest musical outing After The Dark came out in January and she's now gearing up for the release of an accompanying remix EP. So before that drops we got her to serve up a slice of the diva-soaked house and acid sounds she's become synonymous with as part of our Ransom Note Mix series...

"For this mix I wanted to channel the feeling of dancing through the night with a new lover - inspired by my last trip to Berlin in 2019. Keeping the experience of sex - not just the act itself but everything leading up to it and after - in focus...foreplay, exploration, climax, and aftercare...

Fritz Kalkbrenner - When We Dip 096

This is my official set from Electric Forest this year. 

It was my first-ever festival performance, and it was a special one. The setting of the forest inspired me to craft a bit of a deeper, more mystically-inclined set. 

I will be releasing the mix for free download exclusively on my newsletter. Sign up here to receive it: https://bit.ly/2PkcuAI
