Detroit Digital Vinyl is beside its function as shop for electronic music also a platform for free to download DJ mixes. This is the first one.
Release Notes:
"If the music is the words, then a mix is a sentence, a paragraph, perhaps even a book. It may be emotional or it may be not. It may be breathtaking or relaxing. Whatsoever. A lot of DJs are, often without recognizing, not Dadaists. Their sets are books that prove themselves to be readable, even to make sense. But how can one "write", align and overlap "words", with full consciousness? How can one not just state an expression (senseless or not) but "tell" a "story"?"
This is the subject of our first experiment. We are going to tell a story through a 3 part mix series. With part one we start in a city and a people that are vibrant, moving and advancing.
The next mix will pick up in the story where this one left off. This mix was done in one take with no edits in The Plan's make shift bunker during 2 week Escapism session number 26. This project was conceived years before and we have picked this very moment to put it into action. We believe that spinning records can be much more than just matching beats, working the faders and eq's and just making people dance. This music is capable of putting forth messages beyond just the content of the tracks alone. Look beneath the surface...
