meltdown 34 - lily dalton

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Number eighty-five comes courtesy of locally sourced DJ Lily Dalton, exploring sonic adventures with a rhythm-based narrative, complex computer romances with eccentric undertones, sprinkled with a good amount of thump to get the heart rate up. A perfect insight into the art of abstemiousness.

FHUO # 85 // Lily Dalton

Originally from Sydney, @lilydalton is now living in Melbourne where she has been spending the lockdown period exploring a widely expanding catalogue of music and walking her dog. Lily is a versatile DJ who is wholeheartedly addicted to the pursuit of special records from then and now. She has an affinity for deeper, stripped-back sounds and is inspired by the escapist possibilities offered by immersive soundscapes.

"The world feels pretty claustrophobic right now so I thought I’d approach this mix with the mindset of trying to counter that with soundscapes that feel quite vast. I’ve found that music is resonating with me differently amidst the current times and I think this mix is quite reflective of that. This is a slow-moving mix with moments of heightened emotion but also a fair amount of breathing room. Best suited for a solitary stroll or simply for staring out the window: I hope this mix provides you with the same calm escape as it does for me."
