The White Light Mixes

“The mix is mostly beatless. It’s filled with lots of weirdo new age music and electronica that we love. It’s something to trip, come down or even drive to. It’s very different from our usual mixes, but definitely reflects a lot of the music we’ve put up on the blog over the years! Enjoy.” Tracklisting: Tight pants – Side Again For Your Love Spacetime Continuum – Floatilla Psychic TV – Coumpletion 4a User48736353001 – 19 Ssnb Autechre – Nil Solar Quest – Ourannaz Marie Davidson – Insomnie Redshift – Pyro – Gen RR Wong – 2Lions Michael Mantra – Sonic Alter Golden Girls – Kinetic (Morley’s Apollo mix)   Feel free to share and blog this mix, but please reference this page!

“Each mix I do has a theme. The theme may, frankly, be tenuous on occasion, but there is always some sort of over-arching, high-falutin’, poncey idea behind it. For this mix, I returned to downtempo territory. Over the past 15 years or more, I’ve become slightly obsessed by the 95-115bpm range and for this I kept it no faster than 110bpm. I must admit, I like the late night electronic feel of that speed. Maybe it’s because I’m getting old; or getting awkward (I often get people coming up when I’m DJing and asking me if I’m going to speed things up, as though they’re on a bus and late for an appointment). Most of the stuff on here came out this year, with a few oldies thrown in the mix and a couple that have yet to come out. No rhyme or reason for why they’re there, other than I like them and it all seemed to fit together. So, anyway, yeah, it’s slow.

“A large number of examples of this type survive. It certainly existed in the later 13th century, and perhaps considerably earlier. The subtype XIIa (originally classified as XIIIa) probably designed to counter the improved armour of the time.” Tracklisting: Hjarntotyr Med Slaktmaskin – Hintingly No Hinderance Zoviet France – Siege Roly Porter – IX Actress – Maze Crushfield – Firewhere Crushfield – RMR ??? – 1601 Crushfield – Asleep Under Vega Zoviet France – Ram ??? – Nice Quiet Places When Thoughts Form Group Rhoda – At The Dark Actress – Uriels Black Harp Hiyawatha – Dogs of War Talk Talk – New Grass Ital Tek – Heliopause’   Feel free to share and blog this mix, but please reference this page!

“What to say, I’ve love being in the city, any city that is. There is something about the buildings, the space between them and how they work together late at night that has always fascinated me.

“Putting this mix together i was drawn to tracks that evoked some inner personal feeling of calm, hope and reflection. Interlacing mood and emotion to bring together something worthy of listening to when one feels open to the greater presence that connects us all.

“The set is created from strictly 80’s Israeli new wave rarities and gems.

“When traveling abroad, splashing in the local water is, in my book, a must. In Japan, travel to a countryside onsen. In New York City, you have to try the Turkish or Russian baths. In Rio, head to an out of the way beach. Find the water. The water will open your mind much faster than you’d expect.” Tracklisting: Eddie Jobson – Spheres Of Influence Twins – Twins Jonas Reinhardt – Headband Harvest Ekimi – Che Wa Sha Wo Baaba Maal – Loodo Man Jumping – Walk On, Bye Pigbag – Dozo Don Kenneth Knudsen – Catalogue Steve Tibbetts – Climbing Group 87 – Angels & Obelisks Larry Chernicoff – Woodstock, New York   Feel free to share and blog this mix, but please reference this page!

“This is a two hour journey of songs that mean a lot to me. It’s for driving late at night or maybe kicking it by the lake in the midst of a psychedelic camping trip; inspired by many summers spent in the mountains of BC. These are songs that I often find myself listening to alone in moments of solitude. All of these songs were discovered during several different parts of my life – some were introduced to me by my parents, while others I collected over the years leading up to today through friends, travels, and digging. It was a highly therapeutic process putting this together and I hope you enjoy it.” Tracklisting: Jonny Nash – Vision Partially Obscured Bobby Caldwell – Carry On Moon B – Moonda Bee Gees – Sweet Song of Summer Soft Machine – Joy of a Toy Connan Mockasin – I Wanna Roll With You David Crosby – What Are Their Names Woo – The Subtle Shadow Benoit Widemann – Cecile Sonic Youth – Beauty Lies in the Eye Joakim – Rocket Pearl Brian Eno & David Byrne – Regiment Tame Impala – Sundown Syndrome (Canyons remix) Krakatu – Riddells Creek Nite Jewel – Am I Real (Classixx TPS-L2 mix) Superstar – Folding Gold Fleetwood Mac- Albatross Spike – Writing on the Wall Gigi Masin & Tempelhof – Interstellar Bop The Whitest Boy Alive – Figures The Avalanches – Summer Crane LCD Soundsystem – Never As Tired As When I’m Waking Up Air France – No Way Down Cut Copy – Autobahn Music Box Secret Circuit – Walkin’ on the Water Dean Blunt – Punk Aldous RH – The Sky Dyvydes (2) Ariel Pink – Lipstick Lust for Youth – Lungomare Torn Hawk – Afterprom Syracuse – Latomia Mac DeMarco – Chamber of Reflection Glass Candy – Rolling Down The Hills   Feel free to share and blog this mix, but please reference this page!

“When I was in college I became lightweight obsessed with Stereolab. Once I even took the Path Train to Hoboken all by myself, hoping to get into a sold-out show of theirs at Maxwell’s. I couldn’t get in, but they let me listen to the whole thing from the hallway where they collected the money. Afterwards I ran up on the drummer and tried to convince him that they should do some rap stuff with me (obsession). While recording this mix I ran across a great article, ‘stereolab and the ninties art of influence’, by Sabrina Tabuchi. It made me realize, exactly why I like this group so much. Growing up, all of my favorite records were being made with samplers. Stereolab was the first band I encountered that were attempting to (and succeeding at) recreating the aesthetic of sampling using live instruments and studio gear. The result was something entirely new, music that was meticulously patterned after what had informed it. Anyways… I love them and felt they would make a great subject for a White Light Mix. All the other trax are by artists whom Stereolab have switched me on to over the years. Enjoy! Miss you Marry Hanson.” Tracklisting: 01. The Gentle Waves – Partner in Crime 02. Stereolab – Des Étoiles Électroniques 03. Faust – Passings 04. Cibo Matto – White Pepper Ice Cream 05. Beatniks – Le Sang Du Poete 06. Ryuichi Sakamoto – Bibo No Aozora (Jemz Edit) 07.

“I’ve relocated to London for a while, and before I left NYC, I recorded Taxi Drivers on my rides home after DJng club nights and afterhours. This mix of ambient and textural music is an ode to the nocturnal beings out after the club, and the late nights I spent in the Big Apple before heading overseas. In the recent tragic passing of a big musical inspiration to me, I open this mix with Edgar Froese leader of Tangerine Dream. This is the music that breathes both at dusk and sunrise.” Tracklisting: NYC Taxi Badge 5303729 Edgar Froese – Specific Gravity Of Smile Barnt – 0221 51025Xx Vit Fana – Constance NYC Taxi Badge 679034 Luca Venezia – Free Falling (Part 2) Ollie Olsen – Anna Betrayed Tempelhof & Gigi Masin – Session One Andrew Chalk – Shimmer In The Sun Curses – Shadows Rising Walker & Royce – Tell Me Now Feat.

“Click through below to read a personal and intimate track by track explanation from this legendary producer, and main inspiration for the series.” Tracklisting: 01 – Bel Canto “Picnic On The Moon” I bought this album in 1990, on a K7, I always loved the band, released on Crammed Disc, back in the days it was a very hype alternative Electronic music label. The band is originated from the Bergen, in the far north of Norway, if you have some time, check out their albums on iTunes. 02 – Enigma “Callas Went Away” Believe me or not, but one of the member of this band is a friend of mine. Michael Cretu who produced this album, is a genius and master producer from the 80’s, they sold 18 million records. 03 – Propaganda “Strenght To Dream” Another german band, signed on ZTT, Trevor Horn’s label, the most successful label from the 80’s, in my opinion and the best producer ever. Propaganda is an incredible masterpiece, you have to imagine thats this song is from 1987, at the very early sampling days 04 – Kraftwerk “Radioactivity” This band simply invented the electronic music almost as we know it today, this track hasn’t gotten any wrinkles thru the years. My father had this album in his car, so i got used to listen to this kind of sounds when I was a child. 05 – Jean-Michel Jarre “Oxygène Part II” I totally love Jean-Michel’s mega concerts, his concert in Houston 1987 is just incredible, its the megalomania of the 80’s at its best, not only he’s a brilliant musician but he’s the first who understood how important visuals are as a part of the music. He’s the most famous french musician in the world. 06 – Cerrone “Générique Brigade Mondaine II” I met Marc Cerrone a couple of years ago, thru a friend, I was already a fan of his productions since years. He offered me to produce a single and remix it. We’re almost neighbors, he lives 10minute from my place. His music is a true testimony of the golden 70’s, he was the first producer to release extended 45RPM with a one sided-one track concept more than 10min song for DJ’s. 07 – Eurythmics “This City Never Sleeps” They are forgotten today, but I think the duo Annie Lennox/Dave Stewart was at his top in the early/mid 80’s this songs reflects perfectly the feeling of being in the city at night, a warm summer night is preferred… 08 – LFO “Simon From Sydney” This is the first “techno” album i bought in my life, on K7, with 808 State, & KLF, LFO has set a high standard regarding the production level, although this is all produced at home, they are, with Daft Punk, my 90’s heroes.   Feel free to share and blog this mix, but please reference this page!

“For the past six years we’ve been driving around with La.Ga.Sta. through cities, roads and lost highways listening to music, new stuff and road testing things for the site. Making the mix for one of our favorite mix series, White Light Mixes, felt exactly like driving to our favorite destination with the songs we’ve always loved in mind. For this particular mix we had to also travel through decades of music to pick the songs that are tailor made for a car drive through the night. Enjoy the ride.” Tracklisting: 01.

“I really enjoy creating mixes to a creative brief, I think its really interesting. I have a very broad interest in music (not just club stuff) so it’s nice when i get an opportunity to do something a bit different. So yeh thanks for that. Also NB dodgy mixing throughout, its mainly vinyl, and old at that and my neighbour complained about the noise so i was monitoring super slow. Selections on point though!” Tracklisting: Sorry, No Tracklisting for this mix.   Feel free to share and blog this mix, but please reference this page!

“The first half of the mix is more on the housier side and the second half more twisted and deep techno. Kind of like i play my longer sets in a club. I start with groovy house and play a bit harder later on. I also wanted to make sure the the vibe is positive and that you are able to listen to it at home but also works in a club.” Tracklisting: Sublevel | Just us (Acid Mondays Remix) | Sublevel Franck Roger | Wanderlust | Decay Bas Amro | You + me | Freerange Downtown Party Network | Disco Ball Drama | Futureboogie Caribou | Our Love | Merge Simon Baker | Plastik (Todd Terje Mix) | Kompakt Alex Under | Bailar Pegados | CYMK Boska | Caves | Love OD Communications Unknown Mr KS | Da Season El Saison (Hreno + The Mole’s MHMD Mix) | Just Jack   Feel free to share and blog this mix, but please reference this page!

“The universe collapses inwards, reduced to two small pools of light. Oblivion slides around the lights, casting stroboscopic shadows. In deep darkness solitude is boundless.
