What's Good? w/ Customs

I got to know Laurel (@silver-side-pony) via the growing bin website. Always loved their picks from the bin and so I got curious. Then I heard one of Laurels mixes and was sold. I am superhappy to share this almost 4 hour long sandwich with you... now handing over the keyboard. 
"Laurel hails from the rural North Island (Te Ika-a-Māui) of Aotearoa, New Zealand. They enjoyed a few years observing Pōneke (Wellington)’s rambunctious and delightfully strange music scene at venues like Puppies and the revered Camp a Low Hum, before moving to Berlin.
This mix is the result of many quiet lockdown nights trawling bandcamp, deep dives into the (Growing) Bin, and excavating their record collection. Winding in and out of new music and old gems over 3.5 hours, the mix reflects their unease and excitement of heading back to parties after a long break. Laurel made sure to include some old well-trodden favourites, doing a big middle finger to the pressure to play new and “rare” tracks at every single outing.
Big shout outs go to Eyeliner (@disasterradio), Tania (@taniajust), Castro & Nemo (@sound-metaphors), Cáit (@caitfa), and Stella (@stella-zekri-ouiddir) for inspiration." 
Thanks a TON for this yummy mix Laurel!!

NTS – Doing Time (Again) w/ Asger Behncke

The 43rd mix comes from Vio DJ (@vio-deejay)and is a rather melancholic one, perfect for the current short autumn days. Interview (excerpt) down below.

MFM: Hi Curtis, welcome aboard. What have you been up to lately?

VD: Thanks guys, happy to be a part of the series. I’ve been living in Berlin for ten years now and collecting records for about fifteen. I feel like my interests are constantly changing, but I always come back to records. Lately I’ve been reading a lot and spending more time in museums. I’m growing to appreciate the common thread between things and the way my interests intersect.

MFM: How are you connected to the Berlin music scene? 

VD: I used to throw parties in a space that’s future is now sort of uncertain. I would say I met most of my music friends there. I’ve also worked in music most of my life and am currently taking of the shop at ‘Record Culture Magazine’.

MFM: Do you think Berlin is still an interesting and healthy place for music and culture in general?

VD: Good question. I recently read that Berlin has experienced the sharpest increase in rent over the last five years (42% between 2016 and 2021) of all major European cities. This has lead to a sort of cultural homogeny that has largely erased the city’s distinctive character. That said, we still have an amazing sense of community here, where everyone involved in music supports each other; attending each other’s parties, buying each other’s records and generally just hanging out.

MFM: Word on the street is that you're a great digger. What does that mean to you? 

VD: Haha, my reputation precedes me, thanks! I think since letting go a little I’ve realised that the medium is far less important than the way in which it’s presented. Outside of my interest in collecting second hand records, there is a whole world of other types of music that I love. The stuff I listen to at home or on the bus is often completely different to the stuff I play out. I think blurring those lines can reveal a certain truth in what you do, it’s a purer form of expression.

MFM: What does collecting records mean to you these days?

VD: I have to say, almost none of the records I buy can be played (easily) in a club. For a long time, I was buying music almost exclusively for mixes, which is a habit I’m happy to have broken. Now I will only buy things that can’t be heard beyond the format, as well as the occasional LP for home listening.

MFM: Rumour has it that you've got a knack for organising your records :) What is that all about?

VD: Haha, yeah. So last year, during a year-long sabbatical courtesy of the German state, I decided to start a small web store. I wanted the records I was selling to be presentable for home visits and got tired of never being able to find where anything was. I built a shelving unit that could hold the weight, cut dividers and labelled them and found 12-inch-wide crates to sort the records. Everything is now upright and browsable by genre. 

MFM: How do you find new records? Do you have your secret or not so secret methods?

VD: Nowadays I just go to the shop and listen to things that catch my eye. I used to obsess over how ‘known’ stuff was but now I’m mostly not bothered. I see records as a curiosity; those with an interesting back story or aesthetic quirk are always the nicest to own. This is usually what I look for when I’m in the store. The rest always works itself out.

MFM: So, please tell us about your mix! Is there a story behind it? 

VD: It’s for anyone who struggles with the shorter days. Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere always has me feeling pretty melancholic, and I wanted the mix to reflect that. It’s something that you might listen to as it gets dark at 4pm.

Our tune Arrivederci took on a far deeper meaning when our great and talented friend Sam Mendez died in a motorcycle accident.  And so what was planned months before the tragedy - translated to When We Meet Again - keeps us all thinking.  So we are dedicating this one to Sam.

Our trio here includes D.C.'s remarkable Vlad Glovchovski on guitar.  His super tasteful grooving is only matched by the way Vlad pushes things rhymically and harmonically, creating and resolving tension across the backbeat and groove.  On electric bass, Daniele Petrocchi simply dances and adds such a wonderful thoughtful line of bass, rhythm and so often melody.   So great to be playing with both of them and to have them together.   This one's for you Sam....Arrivederci reached #3 on SoundCloud's Hot & New playlist in the Jazz & Blues category
