Days Of Steam 002: svvimming

(Mix released March 20, 2021) "Lemongrass Mix" is the only descriptor given me when @benjamin_munoz sent this over. Much like how his music feels like mobile sculptures hanging in midair, attached by strings but with no solid ground, left to float, this mix brings together surrealist soundworlds and unclassifiable infinities. Herzog, Kureishi, and Miyazaki meeting at the local. Mutant pop consorts with free jazz, hyperpop blasts dissolve into musique concrète - the bleeps and scattered tones of a mind forming itself, and revealing itself to the world.
