ALxFW: Conna Haraway (01.10.23)

UK scene heavyweight @alwootton serving up a 100% vinyl blend for the mix series.

Revered for a dub-centric sound oscillating between breaks, UKG, techno and more, the producer FKA Deadboy has earned a reputation for oddball abstraction and dancefloor heaters alike. Borderless, dubbed-out pressure for the heads.

Collaborating with Murlo or cult avant-gardists Susumu Mukai and Valentina Magaletti to solo outings on Livity Sound, ZamZam and his own Trule label, there’s a Midas touch to all his endeavours and this mix is no exception.

Oranj Wine #38 Al Wootton

"Beneath the cold and iced ledges inside a cavernous cutout through the mountain, an eternal flame blazes and heats the air. The heat circulates the cave. A nearby river splashes into the cave, periodically hitting its flame, never enough to put it out, but just so that it conducts a great steam. A deep reddish hue glows from the flames, blurred with the steam, its bright halo spills out of the cave. 

Beings across the starscape know about this spot. They fly, swim, teleport and dance into it. The sounds of their movements, murmurings and exhales become one with the cycle of heat ensnaring the space.

A large stick brought into the cave by wind strikes the wall, which carries the vibrations and sounds of the heat, pressure, cold waves, and steam cycling. Its sound reverberates from the atoms of the heat and echoes on the walls of the cave. The sound carries across the cold water channel, outward into the depths of the unknown.

Listening through a seashell on the other end of the ocean, is a being playing in the sound, called to hold up the shell to their ear and hear how it was forged. The creatures of the ocean swim through certain sections of the water, where they know the transmission will be reverberant. Like swimming through radio signals, the path from the cave is well traveled.

You are now traveling through the water’s transmission carrying the sound."

Malzof is a DJ and Intermedia Artist based in Pittsburgh, USA and a resident of Sweet Abyss. Malzof plays abstracted grooves- weaving together melodies and rhythms across genre, BPM and era into sonic journeys. Spanning ambient, experimental, broken beat and multiple genres of house, techno and beyond, their sets enchant the dance floor with blissed out beats, fun and freaky vocals, psychedelic percussions and environmental sounds.

With a creative background in video production, live visuals and installation art since the late 2000s, Malzof has taken inspiration from their live performance style to inform the ways in which they DJ, make music and engage with the audience. Across mediums, they are inspired by the synesthetic connection between seeing, hearing and feeling; natural and industrial elements; and exploring community histories of liberation and joy.

For the first guest on ‘in Passing tides’ slyn is ecstatic to be joined by one of her biggest inspirations,

Slowfoam, who has curated the first thirty minutes of the show, navigates the frontiers of ecology and technology, delving into interconnectedness transcending past human bounds. 

The second half, by slyn, follows her last months spent working with the sea, encompassing her feelings of helplessness, nostalgia, wonder, and hope, which she felt during this time. 

Both taking large influence from the dynamics of natural systems, drift through an hour of textural ambience and meandering sounds.
