FLUX ep. 32 // Guestmix: Ma Maz

“...But when from a long-distant past nothing subsists, after the people are dead, after the things are broken and scattered, taste and smell alone, more fragile but more enduring, more immaterial, more persistent, more faithful, remain poised a long time, like souls, remembering, waiting, hoping, amid the ruins of all the rest; and bear unflinchingly, in the tiny and almost impalpable drop of their essence, the vast structure of recollection.” (Marcel Proust)

 (...When it comes to the end of the year and having a new era in our lives, the only thing that hammers our freezing minds is time)     (...the fear of past things is...the most ancient form of  humane fear...and the only postern out of it is nowhere but within the fear...within the past...within the things past...within the remembrance of things past...)

The following mix is created out of this fear to make us take a closer look at the past things and their roots. It's meant to take our minds through the different pages of musical history, from 60s through present. It is not set chronologically, instead, it would challenge our historical memories by just pointing out similar musical landmarks throughout the history. Thus, be ready to face a mix that fuses similar feelings free from labels and genres. Hopefully, it would make us notice the similarity between the forceful feelings that led their masterminds to create them. And hopefully it would be a doorway leading out of an ancient fear...

 ...Btw...I'm Maziyar...A 21 year-old Architecture student who lives in Texas...Thank you for listening. "
