I am so grateful to share with you all today a very poignant and sacred entry in the Deep Mind Music series from Lou Drago. Lou has woven together a truly otherworldly psychedelic journey for the soul, a luminescent experience, a gently glowing hologram of emotion 💠

Lou Drago and I connected years ago when they asked me to make a mix for their TRANSIENCE series, which invites contributors to create a “temporary suspension of reality, where the listener can speculate on alternate futures free from all systems of oppression.” We found a synchronicity in the role ambient music has played in our lives, and how it opens portals to new imagined existences for us. Since then, I’ve had the joy of playing for Lou at infinity rug, the ambient-focussed event series they curate with Marum, where we have shared deep chats, silly giggles and shared philosophies (as well as ambient music ofc).

They have put a great deal of thought and care into this mix, which you can hear in the delicately programmed selections, the fluidity of the whole, and the full-being submersion into an emotional plane of existence. From the opening seconds of the mix, clarifying crystalline twinkles open the way, realigning our sense of being, and taking us into this subtle soundscape. This mix feels like a gently calming presence, like both a sigh, and a weight lifted from the shoulders.

As we sink into the mix, we evaporate into vaporous wisps of energy, as expansive washes of sound contrast with infinitesimal whirls and organic instrumentation. We are submerged into a panoramic dreamstate, morphing mystical landscapes expanding before us. Lou guides us through a misty forest teeming with life, droplets of water slipping off the end of intricate leaves around us.

In the final 30 minutes of the mix, I feel as if I am all the flickering stars in the night sky, as interplaying vibrational drones dissolve us into the depths. Lou then very gently lifts us from this state, the atoms of our being carefully reassembled, coming back to reality in a state of blissful harmony. I hope you find peace in this heart-opening trip 🤍🌌🤍

This release comes in the same week that I will be joining Lou as a guest of TRANSIENCE at WHOLE festival this weekend, where we will both be playing ambient sets in the early hours of Saturday. I am really looking forward to this occasion of continued sonic kinship between us, see you there if you are coming 💗

Lou Drago ~ Deep Mind Music Vol.28

Squelching down your earphones like two wellies stuck in a bog pit comes the finest selection of machine-manufactured beats, inspired by the industrial heartlands of Devon, buzzing away in your ears. They say art reflects life. Well, as Bobby and Zack write to you from within their ThyssenKrupp-inspired bunker, nestled away safely in the Wye Valley, they can confirm that life actually reflects art, and the art reflects back, forging a positive feedback loop.

Hackman is one of those producers that has slowly built his name through countless hot productions. Catching our attention with his sublime cut Forgotten Notes a few years back, Ben Hackman has been consistent in the quality of his output, releasing top class material on labels such as Greco-Roman, Futureboogie and 20:20 vision to name but a few and as he heard up to release his debut album this year we are treated to an exclusive mix from the man himself.  Bringing his deep and groovy house flavours to i-D, enter the sound of Hackman.

The quality of our guest mix series remains unbroken with the 3rd session coming courtesy of Andrew Weatherall who has had numerous appearances at our No Strings Attached club nights since the early years.  He always amazes us with the way he manages to capture the full attention of the club during his sets, pushing and challenging the crowd with his avant-garde performances. The long standing relationship continues when he returns next month with fellow slomo cosmic warrior Sean Johnston and this mix gives you a perfect taste of the ALFOS sound.


NSA Guest Mix Vol 3. Andrew Weatherall

I was drifting off under an apple tree
Cool under the shade of summer canopy
And all the sudden I felt something move
And snake began to slide like sorghum down my way
And wrapped himself around my neck to say
“There’s so much that you have left to see
Just pluck one apple off of this old tree”

I thought about the life I had in front of me
The women, books, and wine that I had yet to keep
And all it takes fruit from just one tree
I thought about the weight of apples hanging there
The gravity of situations I might dare
And through the birds I heard some one I knew
I felt the sky turn dark save the light of the moon

Next up in the Junction 2 Mix Series we welcome Italian super selector, @francesco-del-garda. 

A vinyl obsessive who first caught the bug in the ‘90s, the Timeless label-boss is notorious for unearthing obscure, forgotten dancefloor gems and sought after rarities, holding one of the most mouth-watering record collections in the game today. Ahead of his much anticipated Junction 2 debut next June, Francesco Del Garda conjures up a sonic tale of chugging house psychedelia, springy acid breaks and warping electro spacebombs.
