Cooking and Mixing...you run to the kitchen to pour pasta into boiling water and take sausages out of the fridge - then dash back to transition to the next song. You start to intentionally mix in longer tracks so you have more time to make dinner. Dinner DJing. Back and forth. Two minutes to chop onions, garlic, peel and chop veggies - then transition - run back to turn sizzling sausage. It's an art in and of itself. Sustenance. The act of sustaining. I like to put artists together as though they are in conversation, call and response, answering the issues of each other's songs. This mix was made during family dinner prep on a random bright and cold wintery Thursday evening.
