It's hard to believe it's been over a year since the last secondnature party in Seattle. It feels simultaneously as if it's been many years, and no time at all. Lost in the fog of pandemic timelessness, it's easy to forget that it was once normal for us to commune in sweaty togetherness in dark basements and fogged out nightclubs. 

The second volume of our secondnature & friends series brings together contributions from some of our close friends and collaborators who we weren't able to host on the first go around. We've shared dance floors and DJ booths with all of them, and if we can't be together IRL, we're happy we can at least be together URL. This compilation is a statement of intent that we will see and share space with each other, and with all of you, again soon. Stay safe and healthy!

All proceeds go to the artists.

`illegal afters tracks` returns with a transmission from Seattle's @xminus1. 

These tracks anticipate that first party we’re all looking forward to. After an anxious arrival, a playful rhythm invites you to hang your armor on the coat rack. You’re seduced by a groove that marries your body to the dancefloor but pulls your mind to an acid beach party on the shores of a distant planet. Is that a filter sweep or the waves crashing? The bouncing floorboards bring you back to your body. You laugh and exchange stories with your friends as the DJ puts on the last tune of the night…
