from the artist:
This mix was really inspired by the human need to negate almost all emotional restraint. I recently went on my first trip to NYC, sadly, after I just turned 30. Birthday present to myself. I was with my two best friends in the world, seeing some of my most influential & obsessively favorite musicians live for Unsound, buying designer pants, hallucinating off perfumes. It made me think more about what music can be as individual works & how impossible it is so predict the end of art collectively. It throws your skull into the blender really. In a good way.

It’s really difficult for me to articulate the headspace I fall into when I write a mix or a track. I’m not entirely sure there’s a word for this little place I go to. It almost feels like a haunting, but it’s nothing totally malevolent actually…I have these screens in front of me, I have these noises in my ears, & all I picture in my immediate peripheral is some form of natural scene. Frozen waterfall. Black sand beaches with dead mandarin fish lodged inside driftwood. Soybean fields wind dancing at dawn. Alot of these are visions from my childhood in Indiana & my recent travels to places I never thought I would make it to, woven with fantasy scenario. I think if I have a familiar place always with me in my forethought, I’m able to relax & filter a solid beam light of authenticity & aura into something palatable for everyone else, for the most part. Basically, picture the most distressing track playing on a CDJ, with crashing waves of Hilo, Hawaii as almost like a desktop background…in your head…contorting your own world with it…taking you there & anywhere else. That’s what it’s like for me most of the time. Trance-like meditation. It’s why I almost never get a chance to look at the crowds I perform for.

Same approach applies with producing music. I have not released any personal work thus far for public consumption, but I have a couple goals for 2025 that include launching my solo work under a new name, possibly making it onto a collab album with other chicago talent, hopefully an exhibition show DJing my own tracks to some performance art I have been conceptualizing for a decade.

My personal favorite stretch of the mix is the fucked up gorgeous/unprofessionally placed Godflesh track, into the audio track taken from the Indianapolis 500, into a track from the Blade movie OST, into this really beautiful track by Richie Culver that I’ve been obsessed with lately. From there to another audio sample of waves crashing on a pier, into the most beautiful track by Abdullah Miniawy. Abdullah’s voice brings me to tears every time. I don’t speak Arabic but the track title insinuates that he’s singing to/about his father. Whether it’s happy or sad I’m not sure.

I think the best way to go into this mix is with your emotions scattered in any way you need them to be healthily or spiraled(your choice!). Wearing headphones with the bass maxed out all the way, a very carbonated drink, wearing your favorite hoodie with the hood pulled up…Sitting in a house that’s not yours(but might as well be yours).

Thanks to Kay for letting me be a weirdo & letting me ruin their mix series from the immediate start.

BlackHole The Ocean - NEW TRACK

blurer is a peripheral study exploring ways to perceive our surroundings beyond any focal point. The poetic text where the winds are coming from, invites contributing artists and musicians to collectively explore a world that has become unfamiliar yet again. Inspired by the moment Alice tumbles into Wonderland, it asks what it means to unlearn, relearn, and navigate within a world anew. Like Alice, this conceptual mixtape delves into places, things, and feelings that have been overlooked, ignored or seen as a backdrop. The text, tracks, and sounds of this compilation take us on an explorative journey—not to arrive somewhere, but to sense that what lies within the blur has always already been in the here:now.
(Lisa Walder, 2025)

Most music is used as a form of abstract translation. To unblur the personal, we abstract it and transform and transport it through familiar sounds. Through abstraction, the motives are essentialized to their core. In this, minimalism becomes a prioritisation. A blur can be more flexible. The reduction of elements could be optimistic or protective.
What this release does is observe the peripheral, to look for emotionality or personality within it, but also to create atmospheres that appear peripheral, yet are again included in the general blur.
When hearing the sounds of blurer, the focus of the compositions fluctuates and directs the listener’s perception to certain points within, not only to hear what seems essential but also to draw closer attention to the peripheral. Throughout the whole release, the procedures are very different. Some moments are vivid, almost narrative. There are deconstructed references to find, in both energetic and quiet forms. Occasionally, we pass by rearing, foggy drone walls or prancing, twirling, or scurrying melodies carried around, on synths or guitar strings. Blurer seems to harbor atmospheres of comfort in the cold, loops of spiraling memories or expressions of disorientation, that scamper around on the acoustic foundation created by the 19 artists.
