Listening Q

One year ago, the UK entered its first lockdown after Boris Johnson made the announcement on 23 March. To mark the UK's first lockdown anniversary, we asked sitarist and producer Ami Dang to create a meditation mix. Something to help keep us going in lockdown – because we're almost near the end of it now.

Dang's work has often been steeped in a deep mysticism, finding a tension between ancient stories, fairytales and modern electronics. Her 2020 release, 'Meditations Mixtape, Vol. 1', was created early on in the pandemic after her aunt and uncle became ill with coronavirus.

Here, Dang dreams of "whispering secrets into ears, warm tides, summer leaves floating down the creek, pressure drops before the storm, flowers that look like snowballs, and roaring laughter". Some of the small joys we haven't been able to experience lately.

2x45min taken from a 7h B2B mix, recorded live at Trempo (Nantes) in April 2019.  Covering all poles between New Beat, electro, Manc punk and darkroom EBM sleaze in the first half, and fully twysting out between ghetto tech, breakbeat hardcore, footwork, and gnashing acid tekkers on the rushing 2nd part - including a killer haul of juke-juiced flips of classic ‘80s synth-pop.

A portion of my opening set before upsammy for my Nowadays residency.

>> Zooming in on the details, going hard on the textures. Vivid and glistening, delicate but not fragile, dizzy without losing our ground. Hidden messages sent angular and sideways. Distance makes the heart grow psychedelic <<

Live @ Nowadays // Opening before upsammy - March 4 2023

CCL (@ccl-url) has many tricks and plenty of surprises up their sleeve. London-born, US-bred but now Berlin-based, they are playful in what they play but serious about how they play it, whether that's head spinning 160bpm cut, "cowgirl-breaks or wiggle steppers." The key for this multidisciplinary artist and former New Forms festival curator is to find the similarities and differences between shades of sound and rhythm and exploit them to spellbinding effect. As a producer, they are no different and have always managed to find fresh in-between sounds on labels like Fever AM and Discwoman. 

The singular DJ steps up this week with almost two hours of pure sonic adventure. It's a perfect showcase of how they can soundtrack imaginary worlds from humid future jungles to robot dances in the sky. You'll hear rhythms you could never imagine and contort your body in impossible ways, all while admiring the dexterity of the DJ who has threaded together such a trippy trip.

Juanita's Mix 088 with Tristan Arp @tristanarp

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. soundbender / fire type 

Q. What's your relationship to the NY music scene?
A. New York is home! I moved to New York from Michigan when I was 18, spent ten years there and started Human Pitch with Simisea when we were young pups. I’ve lived in Mexico City where my partner’s from after learning Spanish and finding community here but New York is the place on Earth where I still feel most at home thanks in no small part to its music communities over the years: from Slink to BRB to Sustain to the Lot and putting on weird, outsider affairs at Trans Pecos, 285 Kent and Ran Teahouse where I met my besties in Asa Tone.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. I’m feeling spicy as of late and am putting out records in that orbit, so here’s a mix that echoes this sensibility and some bits I’ve got in the proverbial crate for Sustain Tokyo 3.0

Play weirder: @livwutang is the DIY-inspired DJ playing at her own speed

"I'd been trying to make a mix that opened with this track by James Bangura for at least 6 or 7 months, but every time I tried to use it for other mixes it wasn't the right fit for one reason or another. I knew that it would set the thematic tone for whichever mix I'd eventually end up using it in, and I was feeling appropriately contemplative when I finally had the presence of mind to record this one. My friend Sami, one of my other favorite artists from DC, had just sent me a demo that he'd made with Sir E.U; it mixed in perfectly and the rest of the mix followed :) The mix overall has a brooding, but speculative tone to it."
