luv365 A Burnt God Reboot

A Burnt God Reboot

five years ago i put up a mixtape called Robot Ground Beat comprised of techno music that was so heavily influenced by jazz that, at points, it veered right into it. while putting that mix together i came across an odd strain of downtempo electronic “jazz” deep cuts. here is a mix of the sounds found that day. a weird and wonderful “b side” companion to Robot Ground Beat where techno producers slow down and put some jazz on it.

post-punk, weird
luv364 - Now Was The Time

Now Was The Time

uneasy sound collage crashing into early sampling politics mixed with unhinged drum machines and unsure funk deep dubs conjured by radio wave riders and post-punk cavemen. Now Was The Time, i hope it’s not too late.

luv361 Some Country Station

Some Country Station

near the end of the 1970s i was hauling an 18 wheeler all over the country pretty much non-stop, chasing the almighty dollar. one day, on a lonesome stretch of highway, i was fumbling around on the AM dial and i hit a bump. my hand jerked and fell upon some random country music station. i became transfixed to the radio, lost in music. after almost an hour the station faded out of reception and the radio went silent. rolling down the road in quiet solitude i reminisced on life, death, love, hatred, beauty, fear, fate and where my puzzle piece fits into it all. as best as i can recall, these are the songs the radio played that day, so long ago.

when someone signs up for the ambient revolution that means they are ready to drift into unknown sonic territory. knowing that they will not return unchanged, they fearlessly open their minds and entangle them in this timeless mirage. lie back and listen if you want to know more.

Möbius Strips is an old skool mix i made 13 years ago for a radio show called Plaisirs Synthétiques, which aired on radio station CISM, in Montreal, one Saturday night a month from 2003 to 2009. the show’s hosts Bertrand, Marc-André & Jean seemed to appreciate my audio oddities. merci frères, de m’avoir aidé à démarrer ces voyages de mix réguliers.
