I prefer to work while listening to music, but I get distracted if there are too many lyrics. As a result, I listen to a lot of electronic music, and SoundCloud (and sometimes Mixcloud) is the best platform to hear a DJ set. I made a few mixes during the pandemic, which you can listen to here. Iโm not great at physically mixing records โ CDJs are easy enough, but beatmatching on wax is a truly difficult craft I respect! โย so I often sample a movie quote or YouTube deep cut to transition between tunes. If you want to hear real DJs, below is a collection of sets, mixes, and a couple radio shows Iโve been hitting as of late. Vibe-wise, they lean towards 303s, Drexciya-era electro, early UK dubstep/bass, and film score gems โ in other words, downright slappers left and right.
