What’s the difference between listening and being heard?
Releasing the third iteration of an annual mix series, scraped from corrupted hard drives and half-sent love letters, arriving softly with the early morning snow. Not into end of year lists but have featured lots of new releases that left a lasting impression. I hope you’ll find them to be good companions. Lucky to be surrounded by poetry everywhere I go 🍏
Had been searching high and low for the kind of sound I want to hear on the dance floor, then realized I could just make it myself. Clipped is an edit-as-love-letter to my favorite Caroline Polachek penned song. (You know the one 😇) Linked where the links go
A portion of my I:I set played @bossanovacivicclub is now loose in the world. || years of creative exchange culminating in the other half of a || part mix with @t__o__d__d . An hour that slips through genres and tempos like sand in an hourglass, made up of a roster of music makers I’ve admired for years. Swipe for full track list.
The beginning of this mix is a sound piece I made just a few hours before playing that more adequately communicates our feelings on so many vile, cowardly, and ultimately futile attempts to erase our trans loved ones and kin from our community’s history and from public life than I could begin to say here.
Thanks to @juno_likethesynth for inviting us to share this with you all. Until next time ⏳|| Link n bi:io 🙃

Coming out of my cage and I’ve been doing just fine. Immensely excited and honored to join @cubic_zirconia_nyc this Sunday as we transform @earthlydelights.nyc into a spacefaring vessel and send you down a sonic wormhole. There’s no one I trust more to match my freak than Armando - come watch us let it all off the leash.
There in darkest night, at the edge of the dance floor
I found you there suntanned and sweatslicked
crashed upon the shore
This mix is for the beach, or more specifically, a long hot day at Fort Tilden with friends you’ve spent all night dancing with. See you on the sand.
