SUNDAYS ARE FOR…
Sundays are for…Many things. Often times for after parties, often times for no parties. Sundays can be the icing on the cake of a long weekend, and other times the trough before the massive wave called Monday that rolls over you. In either scenario there is a wealth of music awaiting your minds and ears to make your Sundays better. As with Delayed and our love of curation, we’d like to extend our programming and expertise into another realm, dedicated to that of downtempo, electronica, ambient and everything in between. The caveat? Only quality not quantity, and don’t hold us to genre. How does this work you ask?
Starting today and once a month onwards, we’ll be posting a simple Bandcamp list of 10 tracks that we believe fit our spirit of Sundays are for series. Now, these aren’t going to be all new releases, nor are they all going to be old, but in the spirit of our Sundays, which seem to be always changing, a mix is guaranteed. Sundays are for many things, and having the right music makes them all better.
It seems many things are changing here in brooklyn, and across the us. Challenging times ahead and I’m certainly feeling apprehension and uncertainty. That all being said, it is a great feeling to live in such a city that provides strength and inspiration.
Today’s mix looks towards marine eyes, and her wonderful selections based primarily on fellow women artists.
Fall is quickly approaching on the horizon, the leaves are starting their colorful journey as a chill grips the air at night. I love this time of year, as I walk through Brooklyn seeing all the changes certainly makes one stop and appreciate how beautiful this city can be.
Combating the cooling temperature and falling leaves, we look to DOC as his mix for today brings only the warmest of ambient sounds via a live recording from his set at Bar Theo in April.
Life is a journey, not a destination. This phrase keeps echoing in my head as I write the description for today’s mix. September is a special month in the Sundays series, as we enter the fifth year of its existence.
Internal reflection and ambient go so, so well together. This Sunday finds myself deep in the midst of both worlds.
Each submission is an auditory vignette, a short story into our respective lives as artists, curators, and passionate lovers of music. To give space and not expect something in return, it’s a beautiful thing. Will You, our spotlight lands squarely on your shoulders.
As we have reached the end of July and look towards August, the weeks past provided some nice moments. Time spent with family, grilling anything and everything for dinner each night. Walks around my home town in the ‘golden hours’ of the evening. There’s a certain tranquility about that, which counters the noise of New York, oh so well.
We’re so excited to have the wonderful DJ, label owner and much more, Pjenné grace the Sundays series. her expertly crafted mix hits all the sweet, sweet trip hop spots and wraps around the listener like an auditory hug.
What a whirlwind of a travel month June has been. this Sunday finds myself back at home after an extended trip for waking life. So many emotions, so many friends, both new and old, experiences both good and bad. I will be processing it all for quite some time. I feel so fortunate to be able to make these trips, and while I may be tired, I feel so inspired and appreciative of it all.
