Our new mixtape comes from London experimental musician and producer Kinn, with a mix of sound, youtube rips, film audio, raw sound design and unreleased music from the artist himself, an intimate recollection to take us into the artist’s expansive creative universe. Kinn has emerged in recent years with a bleakly psychedelic take on post-rock shifting between traditional band setups and move avante-garde studio works. A rotating cast of collaborators, including Arthur Leadbetter, Maxwell Sterling and Alexander Tucker, bolsters this. Recently they have collaborated with artists Tai Shani and Mark Leckey. Their current offering, ‘Dogtooth’, coming out on 7th July 2023, carries off down this path with spoken word, string shards and clouds of distortion, giving away to more traditional song form. The production was all rendered over a 2-year period in precise, spacious, sonic detail, bringing to mind a mood somewhere between Mogwai and The Haxan Cloak or The Body. The album puts a profound and disenchanted humanistic stance at the centre of the stage. As we read, Dogtooth reflects on an array of individual, global and digital, often seemingly esoteric, shared experiences. Anger, conflict, beauty and grandeur, all summarised as part and parcel of wheezing and spluttering modern metropolitan world, looking to peel away the negative smog of contemporary living, the interfering noise which bombards our ever more digital lives, searching for meaning, comfort and ways of goofing off amidst these oppressive forces, sirens and snake oil salesmen everywhere, an all-encompassing true and truly messy beauty. The mix Kinn has prepared for us is built around some of his compositional approaches to long-form and non-linear narrative, spending a lot of time playing around with the arrangement and dynamics of the mix, how one thing can suggest, merge and form a narrative-only by preceding another track completely disassociated from each other in time, aesthetic, even meaning, or how a motif placed at the end can bend time and pull you back to something you heard at the beginning. This never ceases to interest me, how loose "reality" can be, how easily we can be suggested. It can easily be smashed apart and put back together in a different way, a wrangling of ambiguity. As I started to work on this mix, to me, a clear narrative unfurled, I'm keeping this ambiguous from the listeners so that they can invest their imagination in it, that's one of the beautiful things about music. It is meaningless without you to listen to it." Tracklist: Barry Adamson + Pan Sonic + The Hafler Trio - The Hymn Of The 7th Illusion (edit) K.C.
