Tustance is proud to release the second album from Private Grief: Deadline 2.
Based in Salerno, Italy, a city living by the rhythm of the mediterranean sea, Private Grief offers us a journey in the « Seacore » universe. This word emerged in the making of the album and it reflects a deep inspiration coming from the ocean, both organic and melancholic. Evolving between ambient, field recording and deep techno, this second project is definitely a gate through Private Grief’s magical kingdom.

“There are often more things shipwrecked at the bottom of a soul than at the bottom of the sea.”
Victor Hugo

Artwork is designed by Llyazel and suits the soundtrack perfectly. It gives the listener a glimpse of the Deadline 2 kingdom. This album is an invitation to rest in this castle for eternity, seeking for interior peace.

In this episode Amanda Alencar speaks to Ayham Dalal about how refugees living in camps adapt the space around them to fit their needs.  

Ayham Dalal is an urban planner and architect specialised in the field of Forced Migration. He is the author of the book “From Shelters to Dwellings: The Zaatari Refugee Camp” published by Transcript Verlag (2022). He has been a research fellow at the Refugee Studies Center in Oxford University, the CRC “Re-Figurations of Space” at TU Berlin, and CNRS in France. Currently, he is a Lecturer at the Architecture and Urban Design at the German University in Cairo.

Ep.2 (S4): Ayham Dalal about Refugees as Architects

“Migrating is a very difficult and dangerous thing if you're doing it undocumented, but also it's a very beautiful thing because you're walking, you're meeting people, you're talking… I hope this is not romanticizing the pain they experience, but I think... my book tries to show that they experience both. They are people, they are complete people, who are enduring the journey and sometimes enjoying the journey while walking alongside other people and interacting and expressing things.” 

In this episode, we hear Itzel Eguiluz speaking with Alejandra Díaz de León about her book “Walking Together: Central Americans and Transit Migration through Mexico”, which was published in 2023.

Alejandra talks about how the journey of Central American migrants walking north, through Mexico, is about much more than just having practical strategies to survive the journey –solidarity, trust and social bonds that are formed along the way, can also be valuable elements of the experience. We hear about what Alejandra calls “road families” and how during their journeys, migrants form communities around their common understanding and experiences of crossing Mexico.

Alejandra would like to acknowledge Dr. Yasemin Soysal and
Dr Carlos Gigoux for their contribution/support. 

Alejandra's research  benefitted from funding through the CONACyT scholarship and SLAS.

Alejandra Díaz de León is an assistant professor of migration and violence at the Center for Sociological Studies at the Colegio de Mexico, in Mexico City. She holds a PhD in Sociology and an MA in Human Rights from the University of Texas. 

Her research focuses on human rights, solidarity, and the creation of bonds, trust, and cooperation among strangers during contexts of violence and uncertainty, like the transit of Central Americans through Mexico and to the United States.

Ep.8 (S4): Alejandra Díaz de León on "road families" en route to the Mexico-US border

Mix recorded on 2.23.24 @ show by Incognito x Veluda x Obsidian as direct support for headliner Adiel in San Diego, CA.

AMZEL 2.23.24 Incognito x Veluda x Obsidian Mix

Southern California has long been a hotbed for artists in the electronic music scene who have shown off their dynamic abilities in the studio or behind the decks, and AMZEL is doing just that. This San Diegan has transitioned from her initial house and techno focus to layering in other unique styles to create magical moments on dancefloors at clubs, warehouse events, and more.

AMZEL hasn't just defined her DJing skills by utilizing CDJs, as unlike many other contemporaries, she's found a passion for spinning vinyl. This has allowed her to explore other sonic realms, ranging from jazz to new wave, while adding deeper cuts from her growing vinyl collection. That said, AMZEL stuns when she performs digital-driven sets as well, which she's put on display in recent months at venues throughout San Diego and during her Particle FM residency.
Having recently taken the stage at INCOGNITO, Veluda, and Obsidian's underground event in San Diego to deliver a dose of techno, electro, and more, it was fitting that we caught up with this blossoming talent. AMZEL sat down with us to dig into her history, her thoughts on the scenes in San Diego and Los Angeles, and plenty more. Listen to her guest mix and click the link for the full convo!

I've enjoyed SC for years, but will leave this platform because of it has let AI loose on our creative property. Fuck them.
