I’m excited to finally report back on my ethnomusicology lab colleagues’ and my third and final trip to Ecuador getting to know some rarely-contacted people groups.It took two solid days to get from the airstrip to the settlement in the upper Orinoco basin. The village is hidden behind a ring of flooded lowlands, accessible only by canoes. The community received us with less caution than they had in the past but they were as reserved as ever. After a few days, we were very graciously granted the

People think of Detroit as a techno city, but of course there’s tons of good Detroit house, and we have our own flavor of Electro that I ascribe a lot of credit to Electrifying Mojo for creating — in the years when all the Detroit Techno mucketymucks were coming up, he introduced the city to Kraftwerk and played it a LOT. He played Kraftwerk alongside Yello and Prince and deep R&B cuts on an urban and quite audience-segregated station, WGPR. The station had few white or suburban listeners and its

I’m real pissed off so this kind of devolves into noise but you might find it cathartic I guess. The hip hop at the beginning’s pretty listenable and these are massively underrated artists. Mostly jump-up stuff if you want to get hyped for, I don’t know, vacuuming, or making some aggressively spicy dinner, or doing political activism or something./DJICSend this to that one guy you know who’s super into UK dance musicIt begins politely.

Judge Learned Hand Sings "The Iron Merrimac"

Content Extruder ·

2025/08/05

“The Iron Merrimac” is a rarely reprinted poem by the American jurist Billings Learned Hand, written in 1918 during the final year of the First World War. The poem invokes the image of the Civil War ironclad Merrimack as a symbol of mechanized resolve and national endurance, rendered in an austere, unornamented diction that echoes Hand’s own legal prose. Though primarily known for his jurisprudence, Hand’s choice to publish a poem at this historical moment reveals something of the inner life of a

Dies ist ein zehn-Minuten-Bonus-Mix zum Letzten. Er setzt dort an, wo wir aufhörten. Kurz, klar, voll Wumms. Wer da tanzte, tut es hier auch.Was diesen Mix auszeichnet, ist nicht nur die Genrekenntnis, sondern die Balance zwischen Hommage und Gegenwart. Hier sitzt jeder Schnitt, jedes Acapella ist eine These, jeder Drop ein Beweis. Ein Set für Leute, die nicht fragen „Was ist DnB?“, sondern „Was kann DnB noch sein?“ Die dramaturgische Koordination der Tracks impliziert eine kontextuelle Verflechtung

Ich werde nicht lügen: Als ich diesen Mix gehort, war ich skeptisch. Der Opener, ein Remix von "Ordinary Love" durch Folamour, schlich sich an. Roosevelt bringt den synthetischen Pop-Vibe mit, Folamour legt Samt drauf. Und der Übergang, Butterweich. Kein abruptes Crossfaden, einfach Groove auf Groove, wie man es sich mag. Rogue D zieht nach mit "He Can Dance," und Bruddi, Titel lügt nicht. Der Track rollt cool. Was hier auffällt: Das Mixer hat ein Gespür für Textur. Kein Track steht nackt da. Jeder

Always liked this song. But the real version’s so… so peppy. To me, it needed grit and a touch of detached academic inaccessibility. This was recorded live at the Wien Konzerthaus in 1949 shortly after the release on London.There were other performances but the recordings do not survive. This is a public episode.

I love Brian Wilson and identify strongly with his fear of stages and his love of the studio. This is not intended to disrespect him in any way. It’s such a beautiful song.And KARL, the best-sounding voice from the Chinese AI voice app I used to make these, did his best.AI Karaoke is easy to make and it reveals the flawed nature of generative content. I put the a capella into an app that 1) interprets the words and transcribes the song, and 2) outputs MIDI that purports to follow the vocalist’s

I think Dubmatix and I might have been separated at birth or something, and I was adopted, so that’s feasible, right? Absolutely top 5 desert island Substacks.It felt a little weird to be told that I’ve been doing this for 27 years. When I started, there were plenty of OG DJs to admire and I definitely wasn’t one of them. But at that time — in about 1998 — Drum and Bass had only existed for MAYBE five years.It never occurred to me that, eventually, I’d become original.This mix doesn’t contain a lot

I originally posted this with a long Livejournal-flavored exegesis about my ex.It’s a super solid mix that goes unexpected places, and it was made with strong feelings I was trying to express, and with an earnest desire to improve y’alls day, and thus the mix has been saved from the dustbin of history. The post sucked though and was summarily binned. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit djic.substack.com/subscribe

TRAPPIST-1 is an ultracool red dwarf star located approximately 40 light-years from Earth in the constellation Aquarius. It is about 9% the mass of the Sun and emits very little visible light. In 2017, seven Earth-sized rocky planets were discovered orbiting this star. Three of these planets—TRAPPIST-1e, f, and g—lie within the system's habitable zone, where conditions may permit the presence of liquid water. The planets orbit very close to the star, with orbital periods ranging from 1.5 to 18.8

A good DJ mix reveals its architecture slowly, as if by sleight of hand. This one opens with spectral glitter and bad encoding. The Slavic disco of Саша Чусовитин & Лёша Куприянцев, where the melody seems to have traveled through a CRT before reaching your ears, is an invocation and a warped one. Nostalgia, melted down, poured into a new mold.From there, things snap into a tighter grid. Terrence Parker’s “Welcome to Southfield” sets the emotional compass: a reverent but unsentimental take on groove
