[04] sold

 

For Episode 04 we've got an excellently eclectic mix from Chicago selector sold! Great cuts from Area, Roberto Carlos, and others crossing several decades.  Sold DJ's for Chicago's long-running Hugo Ball monthly and various other parties around the city. She will be visiting you soon if you live in Denver (3/4 Arcology Release Party) and San Francisco (3/9 Houspitality).

From the Artist: ...."This mix is an agglomeration of thoughts, textures, influences, rhythms, sounds and aspirations. Chicago by far is the biggest inspiration on my DJing: selection-wise, programming-wise, skill-wise. I've been a collage artist since high school and with my recent transition to vinyl, the technique really lends itself to my mixing. I got into electronic music as a dancer, and I'm now expanding past the four on the floor pattern I've focused on for many years. I'm rediscovering a true love of music and in this mix I'm combining that with sounds that bridge the gaps or make different pieces fit. This mix is an homage to people & friends who have helped me along the way, artists who are shaping my path, and the music that guides me. It is only the beginning of my journey beyond the dancefloor."

We're delighted to share some choice selections as Chicago's SoundInBetween takes us to a more introspective place for episode 03, "For No Floor."  Relax as you wade into the more thoughtful, downtempo end of the pool. Enjoy!

From the Artist: ...."A long time in coming, this mix ties together a small group of artists & records which have been very influential to me over the years, and whose tracks here (mostly) would not be found on any dancefloor. If it can help, even in a small way, to bring anyone to a more peaceful and restive place, it will have been a success. Thanks to my many fellow travelers on this aural journey who indirectly contributed ideas and influences over the years, especially ASC and the Deep Space podcast series."
