encarta # 2
I was so happy and overwhelmed with all the feedback from the first edition. Thanks alot.
I enjoyed listening back to the playlist over the month. I think it was best when it was thrown on shuffle. I’m especially happy with the wide scope of music across a limited amount of tracks.
I’ve had the same approach to the selection for this months edition.

This Months Tracks:

Junior Dan - Wise Man
Whatever rip I have. It has a buzz throughout. I don’t even care about replacing it.

Wrong Way Up - Sweet Sweet Music
An uplifting sweet and soulful track from the amazing Soundway Records. Really cool synth grooves and rhythms. Good for dancing on a sunny day.

Lowkey - Lovemagic
It took me a while to find the version on youtube I wanted. The upload that was 14 years old and titled “B1 Low Key lovemagic mix_0001.wmv” just sat right with me.
No streaming for this one but the reissue is out there for cheap.

FINESSE - Feel It [12'' Version]
Couldn’t find this one on streaming either. Another track to dance to while the sun sets. Spiritual vibe.

Pist Idiots - She Yells Jack
A modern pub-rock love story. I can’t say much more really. This one leaves a nostalgic aura that brings me back to nights wasted at sticky floor pubs, hearing the crunch and clatter of Pokie Machines in the background.
Spotify

Oneohtrix Point Never - Alexander Scriabin (Edit)
Deep introspective and subtle.
Spotify
#Ambient
Zzzzra - Plan d'immanence
I got this record from a trade a made with a friend in Seville a few years ago. It’s Wavvy, deep and monotonous.
Sink into it
I wanna give an extra shout out to the ambient track on B2

Deadforest & Dera Meelan - MAD1
Over the past few years I’ve noticed Deadforest & Dera Meelan becoming one of the best combos coming out of Auckland. They are pushing the scene forward and are an essential listen.
The way they combine breaks, deep bass and effortless flows is unmatched.

Hugo Massien - Outer Space Jam
I’ve been listening to the archives from dublab DE and Found this track on Leave Your Body Behind w/ Drew (April 2022)
Hugo Massien manages to cut through many modern club sounds managing to always sound fresh and engaging.
Spotify

Randy Holden - Fruit & Icebergs
Psych Rock, a bit heavy and with wailing guitars that rip hard.
Spotify
#hard rock #psychedelic rock
SJOB Movement - Love Affair
Another funky track coming out of Nigeria. This one is from the 70’s.
I’ve been playing this one to my tomato plants to give them a bit extra flavour while they grow over the summer.
