Introduce yourself? Preferred pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself? 

Hi i’m Gigi — he/his — Austin, TX — I was a childhood ice hockey star

How is everything going with you right now?

I have been fortunate enough to be well.. been using this year off from work to dive into a practice and learn some discipline.

How did you get your dj name?

I got it from my partner, Mimi — she flipped my original g-name into gigi & it stuck. I never liked my birth name much anyway + it’s cute to match.

Who currently inspires your music-wise?

ry, tito fuego/mister water wet, charles, bobby, nueen, boundary, jel, purelink, pascäal, ian kim judd, jung dj, shiner, downstairs j, hysterical love project,  perila, oli/px, thurlow joyce+ many more.. so many friends exploring inspiring places these days

If you had to describe yourself as a flower,which one would it be and why? 

Mimi says “frost flowers because they’re ephemeral”

Favorite weird drug/mind altering experience?

Sensory deprivation tank before the rave at Shirley’s Temple (r.i.p.)
What was your first gig? How did it go? 

A show put together by Ben Aqua at an upstairs club on downtown Congress that I don’t recall. I was 18 & had only started making music on ableton a few months prior, and played a live set that mostly consisted of pressing play on a 30 min composed production mix with a little knob twiddling & dj drop triggering. considering that, I’d say it went pretty well

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

I think it’s obvious, but increased representation without tokenism. also, turn away from the dj & look at your fellow dancers.

Any cool releases upcoming for Gi Gi this year? 

I don’t want to speak too soon, but I do have a couple of records in the pipeline with quiet time & index, both of which I’m very excited about. working on some more uptempo material as kept that should be seeing the light of day soon as well.

2023-01-14 Live At Blank Mind X Cong Burn 01 (Big Hands, Lack, Paperclip Minimiser, Sam Purcell)

Known for their boundary pushing, often challenging electronic productions, and pioneering experiential live performances, the duo of Sheffield's Mark Fell and Mat Steel deviated from their city's tradition for more straightforward bleep and techno offshoots to create sparse, minimal and repetitive competitions that favour gentle insistence over high impact.

_"we focus on leaving the audience feeling cold, not just a lack of interest in trying to engage anyone, but more like deliberately avoiding this... no dynamic changes in beats or nodding heads behind powerbooks, just large, awkward, immobile slabs of form. Imagine a Zen Buddhist with unresolved emotional issues. For me, thats how this particular "vibe" relates to minimal or formal aesthetics."_ - Mark Fell

"Be practical and love yourself" — Blueboy

We’re back on Skylab after a while offline (the station recently moved to Quiet Time in Clifton Hill) and we're joined by the one and only P Relief. Parker's dublab show was a big inspiration for us getting started with our thing so it feels extra special to welcome him on to the Naarm airwaves. His mix starts in the second hour of the show. Enjoy.

Skylab - Theory Therapy E21 w/ LET & P Relief

Enter the mythology of NYC artist James K - her sound, equally organic and electronic, is a combination of odd dreams, hybridizing enchanted samples, ripped, broken and morphed rhythms, and vocals, both incomprehensible and appealing.
