Connective Tissue is about the spaces between sound, ideas and people. Featuring underground artists from across the electronic spectrum as well as themed excursions into rhythms at large, Kathi delves into dance music, as well as into the connections that make it possible. The party hiatus forced by the pandemic prompted a personal need to reevaluate what DJing can do as an inherently contextual, fluid, and community-based practice, within and beyond nightlife. Connective Tissue seeks to explore this question through conversations, guest contributions, and experimentation with the 2-hour radio format. Sonic syncretism, fluidity, and genre irreverence will be celebrated in every episode.

For this episode of Connective Issue I invited Bryce Edwards – collector, selector and all around music nerd – to make a mix suited for the times. We agreed that we’re currently only interested in music that has a healing quality. Whether it’s the war in Ukraine, or the ongoing pandemic and its emotionally disastrous aftermath, or just the heaviness of life in general right now, these two hours of music are intended to create a momentary space of relief and release. In the first hour you’ll hear Bryce’s mix: a blissful trip, a sparkly wave, an invitation to let go. The second hour, mixed by me, is for the heart, as in feelings/ cardiac rhythm.
