MDC.238 Ciel by Melbourne Deepcast published on 2020-02-03T06:35:02Z The Toronto producer eases in with a tranquil blend of fresh Australian electronica. Interview with @cl_lit: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/ciel/ About the mix: "I had toured for the first time in Australia late 2018 and it made a massive impression on me. In many ways, it reminded me of a warmer version of Canada. People were incredibly kind and welcoming and I was blown away by the hospitality the promoters and local artists showed me. I also absolutely adored the incredible nature I saw in Australia, having played in Hobart and Brisbane and Melbourne and Sydney and Adelaide and Hopkins’ Creek Festival in a volcanic crater, I fell in love with the landscapes I saw and the animals local only to this part of the world. So when I first sat down to think about this mix, the bushfires had just started raging and the news was beyond depressing to see. Everywhere I saw online was just videos and pictures of burned animals and ash that was once blooming flora & fauna. A fan from Australia sent me a DM on IG, telling me how my song “Terracotta”, as it’s a track that talks about the sea and land, was able to give them a lot of peace during a time that was anything but. And so I decided I wanted to make a mix that not only paid tribute to this incredible music scene and country and its amazing artists, but was musically able to provide a sense of solace to people who perhaps feel hopeless about our time on this planet. That is partly why I began the mix with music by indigenous tribes from East Timor—as “modern” people it’s sad to see that we’ve lost touch with the roots of our life on this planet as we know it, and I think we have so much to learn from indigenous cultures and their respect for mother nature. I also chose a lot of dub music, and music that featured lots of organic drums for similar reasons, as these styles of music owe as much to indigenous folk music as they do to modern electronic music. Ultimately I wanted the mix to feel like slipping into a warm bath. Hope it was successful. 🙂" Comment by Corentin Harbelot so good 2022-07-11T09:39:19Z Comment by 𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗼𝘂𝗿 (𝗸𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗶) Wowww 2022-07-11T06:22:34Z Comment by Astralism Amazing set! 2022-07-08T16:37:10Z Comment by bagnus damn 2022-05-13T21:32:30Z Comment by Charles Olisanekwu Wtffff 😭😭 2022-04-25T14:23:45Z Comment by rita bass (sometimes skeeta) :oooo track ID? what is this gorgeousness <3 2021-06-17T01:22:29Z Comment by Mister X ❤️ 2021-06-10T18:50:49Z Comment by Henry Julier Right here!!!!
