02.01.09 My latest dubstep/future garage mix for the Modyfier blog featuring my remix collaboration with Chris Ward of An On Bast’s ‘Upon the Dew Drops’ ep which comes out on La Folia Recordings in March.
what is going on?
A shot from a recent photo shoot by Michael Connors on the farm in Massachusetts during this Spring visit. We spent a few hours running around in the rain and mud in 6 foot high winter rye. Another memorable shoot full of beautiful imagery.

Earthquakes inside and out. Back in the breezes and the rain, waiting for the flowers to bloom. Old crushes creepin, spent many hours sleeping. Wish I got more done in a day.

The new year is here. Happy New Year. I’m very excited for 2010, it has already been wonderful, if one can say so so early on. Things started to shape up after the solstice, and after a trying 2009 I am ready for the new.
Formost on my mind musically is the new releases on the label, which are all wonderful. We hold company with Douglas Greed, An, Mathew, Chris Ward (and hopefully one very special as of yet unamed contributor).
I am currently working on a new dubstep mix, wrapping up a dubstep remix, and gearing up for a garage gig in Seattle. I have two tech-house and electronic eps finished, that will be out spring-summer on La Folia. Iv been busy in my silence.

Old Friends, familiar faces. Some are leaving, others appearing. Missing many who are dear. Change is in the air. Can you feel it? Things are getting weirder. I can’t tell the difference between the dream, and whats is ‘real’ anymore. The strange is ever more becoming normal.

I’m currently sitting on the floor of my boyfriends studio apartment, smoking a freshly rolled spliff. I’m revisiting this mix, contemplating one year later what motivated me then, and what still makes it central to my reality now. Its an honest mix. What do I mean by honest?
I set out with specifics goals when making this mix. There are two central ideas that compromise it and I followed an emotional and analytical formula. This was quickest mix I have recorded to date, 4 days. Its a translation of how I feel about love, god, and every crazy, wonderful, sad, beautiful, phenomonal, frightening thing about everything. Each track was a petal to the flower. It was as much about the space in between as the sounds themselves. Its about the void, and what fills it. With each track I chose I asked, what does this say, if anything? I wanted a suttle mix of genres. Each track was played out almost in its entirety, every note had to be heard.
This mix was also silently dedicated to someone for there inspiration in its making. People, as flawed as we think we are, are miraculous creatures. We allow each other to experience love, and a whole collection of other emotions and experiences. If it is only for a moment we come together, I can always be thankful for what people allow me to experience and what they teach me. This is a recognition of the beauty, and the ugliness, that people can create together.
A year later I can still listen to it and enjoy it. I’m still in that place.

“I continue to listen to the Tongue and Cheek mix over and over. I love it, it takes so many elements of music that I love and puts them into one: minimal, detroit, haunting melodies, cerebral effects, warmth and soul. There is a maturity about it, a deep understanding of music and emotion. This mix has been an emotional and spiritual grounding point for me this summer, and I thank you. If you are ever coming up to Alberta, please let me know. I’d love to not only have a chance to see you perform, but perhaps extend your trip to edmonton.” Thank you Aaron!
