Califone Dreaming

a mix reflecting the autumnal mood of the season made up of groovy library music from the 70s & early 80s. the sound of back in the day when we were in a sheltered corner of the school library, jacked in to an abused Califone record player, drifting along to an album, distractedly dreaming of what was to come.

The Halcyon Daze Of Decontrol

this 14th anniversary mixtape sets the controls for the heart of the bass. hearkening back to the halcyon days of Interchill all day after parties full of heady dubs and come down phatties. where there was always a steady flow of mid tempo grooves that kept us going, with an ample cushion of bass that guaranteed a soft landing when needed.

Seeing Through It

we gotta see through all the lies. we gotta see through all the ads. we gotta see through all the greed. we gotta see through all the misinformation. we gotta see through all the narcissism. we gotta see through all the money. we gotta see through all the hate. seeing through it is not the hard part, the hard part is what to do about what you’ve seen because once seen it cannot be unseen.

luv459 Everything Will Probably Be Alright

Everything Will Probably Be Alright

everything you know is wrong. everything good is bad and everything bad is good. also, nobody cares.
phew! isn’t that a relief! ‘cos if nothing really matters than all of the expectations and societal pressures we put ourselves under to constantly perform and produce also don’t matter! there’s a kind of freedom to this notion of “cheery nihilism”.
here’s a mix that attempts to cover our collective existential dread in a veil of musical whimsy. enjoy the beauty you can find and revel in life’s absurdities because if nothing matters why wouldn’t you?

Big City Styli

went out and got me some brand new needles for my trio of Technics. figured i would take them for a test spin and made this abstract house mixtape. to make things interesting each track selected is from a different year, spanning over three decades. abstract house survives the trends and continues to go deep.
