Returning from hibernation with uncompromising and enveloping sonics from København's @silvertank / I keep telling myself I should write some sort of essay about the notions of queer ambience / sound sonics (the relationships + significations they have with each other), and then I hear a whirlwind of a mix like this that says more than an essay ever will. "Inspired by the phrase you hear in the be...

junglist flexouts, wormholes of dub, pirate intrusions, overpowering dread // sounds for Nickel City Frequencies (courtesy of @jordan-freeman), a welcome return to campus radio even if from a distance Many of these tracks I've known for a while, from compilations found trawling amazon and incessantly listening to each 30 second sample until they seared into my memory, sounds of gray skies, overhea...

ended up in a faster wormhole this month: pendular tech house, 'vintage' electro, neo-bleep, cut ups and patterns blending like finger paints, overblown and underplanned (been hyperfocusing on @perkopair's mixes as of late and listening back it's definitely felt here).

Neu jahr, neue welle.

First @n10-as show of the new time slot (1st Wednesday of the month, 6-7 PM Montreal time) // Selections that I played at Systeme last week, from Deleuze to Sabbath via atmospheric jungle, malfunctioning dancehall, ECM-jazz, and dub as heard from outside the club. People were pole dancing to Scorn at one point - the project of the ex-drummer from Napalm Death making blunted minimalism. Wednesdays...

@natural_language (born in Evanston, based in Nagano) is one of the few people I've entrusted to take over an entire episode of one of my radio shows (shoutout @newtownradio) - this mix epitomizes that trust in the way it flows through ghostly transmissions, gauzy IDM, ambient techno bliss, and buried affirmations.

2006 or so, in Montréal briefly as Mum’s car was being repaired, I’m passing time at BANQ ripping selections from anything under “Avant/Électronique” that looked interesting. One of those was the Warp 10th anniversary compilation which exposed me to Richard’s work as Sweet Exorcist. Five years later I’m studying in Yorkshire and despite never visiting Sheffield then or since (so far) I devoured mu...
