cats only club. starting now. dec 5

everything clicking into place. feeling very WARM about the high potency concentration of star/wavy/deep/electric/medi vibes forming for this saturday's CATS ONLY CLUB.

celebrating the eighth release for LOW INDIGO. Jolin Ras's Rebirth Cycle. It's heavy. trust. PLUS a collection of beautiful videos Darcy Turenne made special for each tune. AND celebrating good vibes in general, with all sorts of less-heard/next/actual-future/get-to-know top shelf musics.

Jolin Ras. Shaunic. Tusk. Sinerise. TuBlkr.

with EMP Interactions on the environment.

and mred on the occasional dub siren & animal noises.

low indigo take over @ subshop

out to silence and eli muro for inviting some cats out to sub shop. great vibes and the perfect way to spend a wednesday night in van. frumlater went smooth, mred went sideways, and tusk went all the way in.

an intimate night of laid back heads music. high vibrancy atmospheres and spaced-out soul. last sunrise of the outdoor music festival vibes. finger snaps, washed out vocal echos, warm chords and infinite possibilities. from the near beatless to the nearly bursting.

not so much a dancefloor thing, but there's space if you want to be a willow in the wind.music loud enough to get lost in, but not blaring loud so you can still hear each others jokes and crazy stories and life musings and that.lots of comfy seating, great food, and good drink at reasonable prices.

** this night will serve as the long long time coming LOW INDIGO DIGITAL LABEL launch, beginning for a 4 song E.P. from MRED. yes indeed. check for that starting to happen come march

** there'll also be free cat stickers, a cat shirt give-away or two, and a few other bits and pieces.

** s'also a birthday at midnight. yee

and if this night goes as the majority of the stars want it to go - there will be MORE. so come say hey if you like this sort of thing.

** special shout out to the BONZ.AI crew who have been running a great night out of this same spot for over a year now. it's their special vibe they create there every second thursday that unvieled the possibility of this night coming around for LOW INDIGO.

THANK YOU

SHACKLETON @ The Waldorf

presented by Low Indigo, in association with New Forms Festival

tusk - solar chrome mix

from the one TUSK..

a hastily assembled mixture celebrating the impending spring / summer and all its attendant joys, adventures and life changing encounters...

warning may contain: mutated footwork / juke, hyper-sexuality, abrupt tonal shifts, scattered shards of uk funky, disorienting speed adjustments, post genre liminality, blazing sunlight, nocturnal bliss, R&B appropriation, moodswings, terrible production, excellent production masquerading as terrible production, intensely damaged pop music, unexpected metallic noises, accessible hit songs!!, exquisitely irresponsible choices, dramatic synths, too many remixes, explosive joy...
