As someone who has a great interest in music, especially music that would be considered fun(ny) and experimental, I have been trying to implement this into many of my live and recorded mixes. Growing up in the Caribbean, while now living in the cold Netherlands, I've been trying to find sounds that are similar to the sounds used in Caribbean music to not only battle my homesickness, but also to appreciate these sounds even more. This collection of songs embraces the many sounds that are similar to those sounds heard in the Caribbean, such as dembow and reggeaton elements, but also the other sounds that I enjoy listening to while living in Europe, such as ghetto-tech and happy hardcore. You could say that these songs bring me a lot of JOY!!!!

metamorphosis w/ running violets

The theme of this mix was especially pertinent for me. I've found myself in the cocoon of my Tennessee home after being laid off from a job I loved in NYC. I'd worked years to land there. But New York wasn't working for me. I'd have never taken a hiatus without this change transpiring. In some ways the event, being let go, was devastating. But in a sort of larger serendipitous way, everything seemed to be guiding me home.

Despite my unending urge to play dance music when recording, here I coaxed myself into mixing what I listen to most--especially in turbulent times: ambient sounds, the ultimate salve for the soul.
