isolatedmix 135 - Aspetuck

&nbsp; <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > Griff opened our label showcase at Public Records in 2024, and at the time, our relationship had only just got started. His album, Immersion, released last month, was only just in mastering stages with Sven Weisemann, and would take nearly another 1.5 years to see the light of day due to some troublesome test presses. But while his release date was touch and go, an isolatedmix was always written in the stars. I technically heard Griff DJ at Brooklyn’s The Lot radio station just a few hours before our label showcase - sharing the booth with him as a temporary groupie while I plastered ASIP stickers all over the walls - and had been deep in his guest mixes prior to us even meeting in person. His journey as a DJ regularly takes him to festivals worldwide, and as part of his connection with Delayed, some intimate sets in the Pocono’s have come to fruition and are a worthy bookmark if you end up liking this one. As someone who can traverse a multitude of styles, from ambient and downtempo to deeper house and techno, Griff’s one of those artists that shows up in different ways - every time. Likely because, his music, and the stories around his reasons for his music, are often very personal. Whether it’s a concept, or a vibe, I get the feeling Griff is a master of sense and construct - a pretty special skill for an artist and DJ to have, where stories told come from the heart and have a pure reason. Not performance for performance sake, but a narrative traveling from the mind, told through a meticulous track selection. The concept was my attempt to portray various stages of consciousness throughout the morning, from dark into light / sleep to awake, as I get up &amp; start the day &amp; eventually get outside, into the woods for a morning - deep sleep into REM, vivid dreams, waking up from a dream &amp; it's still dark outside but there's a faint glow of light, immersed in nature feeling the warmth of the sun in your face. It starts out cold, dark, alien, otherworldly then shifts towards something more mysterious &amp; inviting but still a bit strange, then moves into warm &amp; fuzzy. Analogous to frost on the ground slowly being melted, warmed &amp; evaporated by the sun. - Aspetuck&nbsp; <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > astrangelyisolatedplace · isolatedmix 135 - Aspetuck DownloadListen on Soundcloud, the ASIP Podcast or the 9128.live iOS and Android app.Tracklist:&nbsp;01.
