This month, let’s give our brains a break and do what ravers do best: have a dance. I hope for you a small glimpse of rave magic – a leftfield thought brought on by strange vibrations, or a surprising way your body responds to a certain sound.
Listen closely and you may also hear hints of my journey as I made this mix: the first 40 minutes I was sat by a phone call on speaker to the Centrelink help line because my payment didn’t come through. A poignant relic of the life of a raver: tuning out the garish sounds of the State to make art for your friends.

Satellite Skies is produced on Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung country in Narrm (melbourne). This is stolen land; sovereignty has never een ceded. I pay my respects to Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung elders past and present. Dancing, music, rhythm and resistance are far from new to this place. Thousands of generations of feet have kicked up dust here and screamed joy at the face of the oppressor.
