The art of DJing is a very special one, and an art rapidly being lost in this disposable world meant for immediate consumption. I've always treated DJing as sonic storytelling, a way to communicate things we cannot say but all feel. The appeal of a rave for me is the communion that takes place between DJ and ravers, a synergistic feedback loop that sends an elevated, excited signal and receives structured yet free movement in response. Without one there is no other, a yin requires it's yang.
But for nearly a year now we have been missing this communion, and desperately missing the stories of our co-creation. And so I was inspired to create a dance floor story, reminiscent of times we've gathered with reckless abandon to spin ourselves joyful, with a wink and a nod to the nostalgia for the raving of my youth. I hope you all can hear the story and feel inspired to move with joy, and experience a moment of self indulgent bliss...
Also, massive shout outs to all the artists featured on this mix, I tagged nearly all of you because you're all amazing and I appreciate your music!
