Sean & Kev solar eclipse mix is live! (Link overhead) A field companion that should pair nicely with the distinct light, esp if started with first contact. Local Mesopotamia conditions are looking fairly promising, a tad bit syrupy. Slow nod to all shadow dwellers on the path today. taken in Mesopotamia, Ohio by @__kevmachine__

I’m honored (stoked!) to have a mix featured for the exceptionally deep Beyond / Below, a series operated by @lexciya_ . Hi-Vis has earned my esteem via their swirly and moving sets (solo and w/ Farplane) as well as compelling original productions and curation of Dreamtone. Not to mention the kindness and encouragement they’ve offered. I am extra pleased that the mix encapsulates the awesome experience of observing the aurora borealis in full display during a remote wilderness excursion last fall. Have a listen! Or save for a time you can be in meander-mode. The entire series has a focus of pairing sound to experience in a way I really value. Thanks! by @__kevmachine__

First release from the Soundscapes Consortium on @merganserrecordings! Beachscapes was a sound installation of synthesized and conjured shorelines exhibited in August 2021 featuring recordings from @mas_crujiente and myself. Presented as individual tracks and as a mixed extended-play to accompany one’s psychoacoustic excursion. by @__kevmachine__

Caught some incredible performances during the late night push at @ragamalafestival. The early morning sets featuring Chicago’s own @lovesaraswathiveena and #lyonleifer were particularly outstanding and every artist was captivating. Watching the morning light filter through the @chicagoculturalcenter dome brought it to full sublimation. Thanks to all the artists and organizers for a beautiful event. by @__kevmachine__
