🐯ANGIE QQ’S YEAR OF THE TIGER MIX (TAIWAN VINYL ONLY)🐯:

A vinyl only DJ set comprised of Taiwanese records thrifted in Taipei between the years of 2019-2020. 

In this mix you will hear the scratches, bumps, and imperfections of nostalgia. Let the music of the past guide you into a new year of courage and strength. 

Recorded live in Altadena, CA 

Special thanks to my Fuhe Bridge "Vinyl Uncle" who helped me dig for most of the songs featured in this mix.

This episode tells the story behind our reissue of the 1984 Los Angeles loner folk album Songs From Suicide Bridge by David Kauffman and Eric Caboor. Album producer Patrick McCarthy describes how the reissue came about, author Sam Sweet reads his liner notes, and we play several tracks from the album.

Solid Steel (7th October) There are reissue labels out there and then there's Light In the Attic, who have been releasing long forgotten musical gems with the upmost care and attention to detail since 2002. They started with the reissue of albums by The Last Poets and continued with releases from The Free Design, Betty Davis, The Vagrants, Lee Hazlewood, Marcos Valle, Public Image LTD and the recent compilation of music from Vangelis, Ash Ra Tempel, and Popol Vuh. This is what they said about the mix;
"Autumn in Los Angeles leaves something to be desired, so living vicariously through sound will have to suffice. This nostalgic mix, full of mellow yet purposeful tracks, is intended to conjure brisk snappy strolls through fallen leaves, hot toddies in small bars with close friends, listening to records on the floor next to a crackling fire, and other familiar cozy-type feelings that one might be privy to living in a place that has seasons. Various Light In The Attic favourites are scattered amongst conscientious covers and gems from friends across the globe"

ANGIE QQ NTS MIX: SPIRIT PEOPLE

"For two months during the pandemic I lived alone in Big Bear. When I first drove up the peak and saw the snow I laughed like a child.  Sometimes, when the loneliness crawled in bed next to me, I cried like a child.

I am never lonely in my car.  Everyday at Big Bear I would drive relentlessly down highways 18 and 38 — also known as the 'Rim of the World.' There at the world’s end I found freedom within myself, my mix, and the road."

The start of something very special with Think!Chinatown's Chinatown Arts Week 2020. Co-hosted by YiuYiu, Think!Chinatown, and Grace Chang (in The Wild, Wild Rose) on 19 October 2020. 

Three years ago, while packing to move to NYC, I stumbled upon three boxes of vinyl records hidden in my family's home. Over the past few months, I've been working with folks in Manhattan Chinatown to dig up and digitize their family collections of records and tapes, while listening to the sweet memories that come with them. From Cantonese opera to Taiwanese pop, these melodies orchestrate the soundtrack to our memories of home and family. Now, these records and the stories they hold fill my own home in Chinatown. This mix pays homage not only to my own parents, but also to the families who have held onto these musical memories of home for decades. 

Special thanks to Dad, Vic, Amy, Betty, and a growing list of Manhattan Chinatown folks for trusting me to listen and sway to these melodies with as much love as you all did with your families.

This project has been a community effort, so thank you for being a part of it.
