It’s something I created in a time which is challenging an and it curates moods, rhythms or speeds that I encounter in daily life in lockdown mode. I also see my mixing as an act of political statement making, resistance and performance of discourses which I find important, problematic or influential in meaningful ways to me and to society in general. At the same time, I see mixing as an encouragement to be more in touch with myself, with my instinct and in the same way, I hope to inspire those who listen to this to do the same.
