A special guest-mix series where DJs are invited to create a soundtrack for tomorrow's days. Next up: IRMA, an Utrecht-based talent with a huge affection for warm sounds and percussive layers. Enjoy!
Every Mixed Feelings podcast is accompanied by a few questions that provide a little insight into the DJ and the mix they've prepared for us and for you.
Which feelings do we find bottled in this mix?
You can find hype, chaos and love always.
What message does the music you play convey?
Dance together and explore new movements!
How is the mix reflecting your current music taste?
At the moment, I am a bit all over the place, it's somewhat more instrumental/ jazzy / breaks but still focusses on groovy music. I am hyped about the combination of hiphoppy vocals and Jazzy sounds originating Brazil/Latin/Africa.
Who should release a new album/EP already?
I am a big fan of Sona Jobarteh, i have listened to her album Fasiya all summer and I would love a new album from her. Or otherwise Santigold, she keep surprising me and i wonder what her new music would be like.
What's magical about music?
Besides the amazing power of emotion that music contains, the most amazing thing is the connections you make. Of some people I don't even know what kind of job they're actually doing, but I do know their favorite artist and the next concert they will go to. I feel like music connects beyond anything.
What is your main source for finding new music?
Streaming services, YouTube and its horrible algorithm, Discogs, I also get a lot of new stuff from reading magazines and books.
If the mix would be a soundtrack, what (kind of) movie/video/audio-visual content would support it best?
Oeff, it would be a rather chaotic soundtrack i guess. Maybe some sort of docu about two friends getting lost in the hype of showing each other new music.
Stay positive and give love.
