TISSUE Magazine Mixtape 58 by Naks
Imagine the only club in town closes. What would you do? First: you don’t give a damn, start a family, build a house etcetera blah blah. Second: your social life dies, you freak out and kill yourself. Third: you pack your passion and your stuff and move to Berlin. more information, tracklist and download
TISSUE Magazine Mixtape 57 by Phil Banks
Cornwall’s forgotten corner. The description Phil Banks gives us of his hometown sounds like a one-horse town in the nowhere of England. Which it actually is. Isolated, grey and rainy. Far away from the noisy metropolises, everyone walks quietly through the streets. Maybe it’s exactly this quietness, that strengthens Phil Banks’ vision of music. Maybe it’s this vacuum of silence, longing to be filled with sound wave after sound wave. TISSUE stumbled upon these waves and was immediately drawn towards Phil’s excellent selection of music. more information, tracklist and download
TISSUE Magazine Mixtape 56 by SAULK
Digging deeper. For a lot of music lovers, this is the ultimate sensual experience. An addiction. And at some point, it´s not about quantity anymore. Quality becomes the game changer. Step by step, simple collecting converts into universal knowledge. The whole thing is expanding into a self-imposed mission of finding something bigger than “just another record“. Something buried in the midst of dust and dirt. Yet unknown or already forgotten. Hidden gems. Never risen from the darkest, most secluded souterrains this planet has to offer. For such freaks, music is more than a feeling. It´s life. Sure avantgarde, pure underground baby. more information, tracklist and download
Europa — Le Tour (TMM55)
Before you get on a plane, it’s always the same. You make up big plans for your precious time above the clouds: you envision to work, to educate or simply to enjoy yourself. Be it with the help of a nice read or by finally joining the mile high club. But after all, things always end up the same: you don’t get shit done. In the end, everything you did was either escaping the elbows/legs/feet that came creeping from the person next to you or desperately trying to get a nap. more information, tracklist and download
