Today’s guest deejay is Roel Funcken.
When I began inviting people to guest deejay on Soundwave I requested mixes that were 30 – 60 minutes long. A 30 minute mix is perfect, but ambient mixes lend themselves to long sets, so I expected a log of guest deejays would not be able to help themselves, and would send me hour long mixes.
Then Roel wrecks my format by sending me a mix that’s two hours long!
But that’s what Roel does. He wrecks formats. His expression through music is always from an unexpected angle. It takes you off guard.
Strap yourself in for a dense, yet spacious mix. There’s nearly 50 tracks on today’s show. Intermingled with Roel’s mix are songs from his latest album, S1 . MK2. Each of his tracks were recorded in one take.
You can find Roel on Soundcloud here and on Bandcamp here.
I am currently exactly where I was when I launched Soundweave during the beginning of the pandemic. My wife and kids re aways and it’s just me and my dog. The difference is back then Soundwave was my way of coping with the stress and isolation of the pandemic. Now it’s just part of our lives. I’m in a different head space. It’s a beautiful day and I’m listening to Roel’s beautiful mix. While the family is away, I can work on personal projects without distraction. Life is grand.
Join us next week when our guest deejay will be Vargkvint.
See you then!
