LCM069 - Explorateur
from lifecrushed Hosted by lifecrushed
This week in the series, we are treated to a very special ambient set from a principal figure amongst the Seattle landscape. A celebrated collector and devotee to vinyl, Explorateur (https://soundcloud.com/djexplorateur) has assembled and molded an hour of atmospheric emotions to help guide and soothe you. Making use of three turntables for the first time, the set feels like a large quilt - built with sturdy, warm chords and tastefully adorned with light touches and ornate sounds. Unsure where one record ends, and other begins - it’s all too easy to get wrapped up and lost in an ethereal embrace. Inspiration for the mix comes from a somewhat recent set Explorateur played in an “ambient treehouse” for a ‘Believe You Me’ event. Based in the outdoors, and intended for an audience of thirty - the intimacy and close camaraderie are palpable and inspiring. Explorateur has turned heads with her local ambient night - Rare Air. Occupying club and dance-focused spaces, and repurposing them for intimate-listening experiences paired with breathtaking visuals. This set is illustrative of what you might hear at these nights. You can read more about that with the link below. Take a breather, and enjoy your week. Rare Air: https://bit.ly/2N3s1IC More on Rare Air: https://bit.ly/2ZvZbCk Instagram: https://bit.ly/2XTD20j
