Son Raw [Passionweiss/Fact Magazine/Nasty FM] x Conscious Wave

words from Son Raw - First up, big up to Conscious Wave/MTL's Bassix Production for having me last week [at our event with Compa]. That was fun, hopefully we can do it again soon.

I originally went in wanting to make a mix that captured the energy of my set at the party, but turns out I was sick of mixing those tunes, so it’s completely different. Instead, it’s got a bunch of my own dubs, stuff from musicians I’ve been in contact with and a bunch of killer releases by labels like Crazylegs, Coyote Records, Keysound and Glacial Sound. There’s also an abnormally large percentage of Irishmen involved for some reason.

It’s definitely got a ton of curveballs. My favorite thing about raves is being constantly surprised by crazy music, my least favorite thing is when that music gets categorized and put in boxes (big up the ambient psy-dub-core massive!) so this is my effort to go against that grain. Chances are there will be at least 1-2 moments that will make you got WTF. 

Don’t worry – embrace it.
