Hello friend & thanks for tuning in!
Over the years having you involved in this project, as a music lover/body mover/art enthusiast, I've learned so much about this unique relationship we are in together. Recognizing the trust & surrender that is exchanged between us has been a deeply humbling & greatly provoking force that i thank you for bringing me. More & more as the barriers between the stage & dancefloor begin to dissolve & the unification of us just as we are (extraordinary animals who love to experience life) begin to crystallize, it makes me happier every time we see each other. I'm very aware of how great we have it, meeting each other in this way, & i hope it's a mutual feeling. With all this ooey-gooey appreciation for you, I decided to invite you on few dates, just to keep it interesting.
The dates I want to take you out on are audible ones.
I have a series of mixes for you that will be different than before in the sense that they're not for anyone but YOU as my trusted comrade in mind, inviting you on a mini-expedition through different styles of music. As you may recognize, my palate for music has a large hunger for all things new & old, wickedly unique & gratefully familiar, so I gave up the necessity to define what genres i enjoyed. These 30min+ mixes are a sample or maybe an introduction or maybe an A-HA moment where we can hang out doing something we both love to do; exploring music, letting go, & going in deeper with curiosity & trust. I want to challenge both you & I, take risks, expand.. & the best way I know how is to use the medium of music.
Keep locked for info & keep awesome just 'cause.
love, Ana
2012 Mix Series Part 4: "We-K"
We-K is a salute to a genre that has been mostly uncharted territory in the states to my surprise, but cannot possibly be ignored if you step into the UK, where in my opinion, is where most popular electronic music reaped it's influences. Grime's a style that fuses garage/dancehall/hiphop & explores the full range of 140bpm, also serving my love of dubstep & dark riddims & bass
2012 Mix Series Part 3: "Hybrid Vigor"
I love music that gets caught in-between genres; the unclassifiable, the awkward, the genre of "other". Hybrid Vigor celebrates these moments of musical purgatory sampling juke, drum&bass, hip-hop, & whatever adjective can be used to decipher the following 45 minutes.
2012 Mix Series Part 2: "Rebound"
"Rebound" is a quick spin through half of decade of tunes that changed the game for me. It was the remarkable time when "dubstep" had 1st approached my skull & then consumed it & my collection for many years. These were, & still remain, some of my favorites dating from 2005 to 2009.
have a listen.. it was fun to do!
2012 Mix Series Part 1: "Sparkly Eyes Technique"
"Sprakly Eyes Technique" is the first of the 2012 mix series and is a ride underneath the forward-thinking bass music umbrella ranging from the gross to the gorgeous
