I am happy to announce that I will have upcoming vinyl releases this year on Styrax, Millions of Moments, and Pronounce, later this year will see the release of my first full-length ambient CD on Shoreless, and a special audio cassette / vinyl project will be out very soon on Southern Outpost, which I'm very excited about.

What projects are you working on at the moment?īvdub: I'm working on a ton of stuff… though much of it I couldn't really tell you what's going to happen with it in days to come, because I don't know yet. They are tracks I will never forget… and hopefully they will tell the story I can't put into words. These are all tracks that have long held this meaning for me, and have provided a loyal companion for me countless times on those reflective days, and those moments that sometimes I wished would never end. To me, that's the pinnacle of what music is to me, and, quite frankly what my life is about. Times such as that are always the times of deepest reflection for me, about what has been, what should have been, and what I wish would be, but which I know deep down will never happen. The mix is basically a soundtrack to that moment.

'Waiting For The World To Go By' will hopefully paint the picture in my head that I had while making it… I have always had this obsession with music that exemplifies sitting at the window, staring off into an overcast, rainy day, when the world seems to exist on a totally separate plane, far away… and when your life almost seems to be on hold, but in a good, peaceful way, even though it's tinged with a sort of beautiful sadness. So I'm grateful for the motivation to see it happen for what will likely be the last time. It is one I've wished I could have seen materialize for quite some time… and now that it has, I'm not sure it will ever happen again. If you wouldn't have asked, it surely never would have happened. Tell us about the mix: what was the intent/purpose behind it?īvdub: First of all, I just want to say thanks for the opportunity to do the mix in the first place.

this artist and the mix he has made represents exactly what we are hoping this series will be about. as well as our love for his music, over the last couple of months we've developed a real respect for brock (bvdub) the individual. bvdub's dedication to his craft, his sincerity and good will have really been a great source of inspiration for us ssgs. since cam posted about bvdub's lovely sounds, we've been in touch with him and the result is this one hour slice of beauty. this should give everyone a good enough option to get the mixes.Įnough talking, onto the first installment. as i said, we'll try and get the podcast up and running in the next week.

unfortunately, we dont have our own server (yet), but we've given quite a few different download options, including a streaming version. in the coming weeks, we should have mixes from ana (harry klein) and pawel (orphanear/dial),Īnd a few other people we really like have also agreed to contribute. this is something the ssgs are very enthusiastic about, and we are hoping the series will continue on an irregular basis. even after hundreds of listens, the old michael mayer betalounge set (from 2002?) sounds as fresh as ever.Īnyway, that is basically what we are trying to do with the mixes. second, many of the betalounge mixes have a real timeless quality to them. first, along with plenty of recognised names, the betalounge does a tremendous job of introducing us to new sounds (to take one example, go back through their archives and check how long they've been championing efdemin for).

there are two dimensions that really separate many of the mixes there from all the disposable mixes and podcasts floating about. In many ways, the template for this has been the wonderful betalounge. the mandate we've given to those that have agreed to do mix is simply to express themselves and their music: to use the mix to tell us who they are and what they are about. the point is not just to slap a mix up, but for this series (like the blog as a whole) to be a medium for promoting djs and producers that we feel people should be listening to. What we are trying to do is to showcase artists that are really exciting and interesting us. before introducing the first mix, i just want to explain a bit about the concept behind this series. Mnml ssgs are very happy to announce the start of our ssg mix series, which will soon be a ssgcast (as soon as i find the time to figure out how exactly podcasts work).
