Futurism Restated Mixes Digest #8: After the Flood

12 sets of soul-cleansing techno, house, ambient, and more

(Not actually a post-flood pic—just fishing nets.)

It’s been a hectic week. Here on Menorca, we’ve had stampeding horses; we’ve had flooding! Fortunately, there’s been a deluge of stellar mixes lately. In this edition of the Mixes Digest, I bring you: 

• a brain-bending, life-giving Freerotation set that is simultaneously a physical workout and emotional cleanse (with only a pinch of I’d love to go to Freero someday FOMO wistfulness)

• a Brazilian funk lesson in DJ dexterity that’ll leave you open-jawed

• a deep, richly textured tour around the margins of dub techno

• a floor-focused spotlight on the genius of Arthur Russell

…and much more, totaling 12 sets of late-summer pleasure.
