London-based pair Jack Rollo and Elaine Tierney aka Time is Away are continually exploring the relationship between time, place and power. They do so in a wide variety of ways from exhibitions for the Arts Council England to site-specific sound works, research projects to their nearly 10-year-strong NTS show. Each one weaves spoken word pieces with atmospheric music into soundscapes that physically and mentally move you. 

The pair's exceptional record collection and ability to manipulate your mood are laid bare once more in this week's mix. It's an escapist daydream where gently lilting rhythms melt away into psychedelic dub with intimate vocal whispers. Indian meditations captivate the heart and mind while lo-fi guitar fuzz lulls you into a hypnagogic state. It's a delicate but powerful world of sound that reveals more and has an ever-deeper impact each time you listen.

The third offering in our mix series is a live recording of Priori and Cousin's dj set at Sustain Release 2024. Recorded on the last morning between 6am and 1pm on what was meant to be an ambient stage, it featured everything a 3 day festival closing set should. Eclectic picks, strange and emotional sounds, dubious transitions and a few feigned endings. Massive thanks to all the dancers, the Sustain staff (Aurora, Ash and everybody else who put their blood, sweat and tears into this), the music makers, the birds, the stars. 

Much love,

P & C

An hour to let the sun do its thing, while the breeze gently stirs the leaves and time begins to stretch.
This mixtape is a breath of fresh air: melodies that drift without hurry, guitars that seem to converse, voices arriving as if from far away. Everything is woven to accompany the soft sway of a warm afternoon, where long shadows stretch and thoughts come loose. Put it on, lean back, and let the music carry you gently.

Here’s Fergus Jones, joined at Drift by guest Rok Riley from Perth. The show begins with a hazy glide through trippy downtempo and trip-hop, before lifting off into a textured blend of jungle, trap, and experimental bass at 160bpm.
