This is my first “studio” mix in nearly 2.5 years (having decided it's pointless to invest not-insignificant time and effort into making mixes that nearly no one will ever hear). I dedicate it to all the bedroom DJs with zero gigs. I say this as someone who has been one since 2004. Dedicating myself to that solitary pursuit without opportunity to unburden myself of the cumulative solipsism, self-doubt, and social isolation it bears is emotionally and existentially draining. I've tried to channel my frustration into work that will communicate the longing and passion and sadness I feel as a bedroom DJ with zero gigs, though I don't think that's ever truly possible, or that I come close here. However, I believe that most people are relatively receptive to the emotional complexity of solitude and isolation, and their aesthetic manifestations at this moment. This mix is a response to this moment of relative receptivity.
