Finding Sounds Ep 30 w/ SA Mayer
Hello
We made it to episode 30. This episode features very talented visual and audio wizard, SA Mayer, who also happens to be a good friend of mine. For this one, his half of the show was a mix including some recent rare CD rips, chants from the Decrees, TNT Roots dub, and much more hidden gems, including 4 new productions by him. For my half, I did the usual–mostly newly released music from rare artists, mostly ambient but it gets groovy. There is a new Pinecone Moonshine release on there, and some deep-fried internet baile remixes. So its not too lofty. There is also no tracklist for this episode per SA’s request. Anyway, enjoy, thank you for listening. Happy to have made it this far. Is this thing on?
Much love,
deskulling

Finding Sounds Ep 29 with Boëthius & formforum
Hello
Here we are with episode 29. The first hour of this show features Boëthius, an Ankara-based musician/composer. We go way back first making contact on the internet exchanging tunes and talking shop. I have always thoroughly enjoyed their music and energy. In his hour, he plays a selection of songs while over it he discusses music and it’s connectivity, sitting down versus standing up, and how crazy this all is.
The second hour features my label, formforum, and a mix I made only from tracks out on the platform. formforum is an open platform label, built off of the user-submissions and small networks of musicians internationally. There are many release on the label which you can find on bandcamp and soundcloud (and below). We have two compilation, ‘Deaccession Forms’ and an all snare sample compilation, ‘Snares’. formforum is nothing without its contributors and for that I am forever grateful for how this all worked out, and for the depth of people’s love for the music. Boëthius also just released an album via formforum called ‘Echoes’.
Enjoy the music, and thank you for listening

Finding Sounds Ep 26 w MNEMONIC
For episode 26, I am joined by newest WRIR resident DJ, Mnemonic. For the first hour, they introduce their lineage of work, mostly taken place here in Richmond. Electro-acoustic, new jazz, noise music, whatever you want to call it they bring sound exploration to the forefront. Thank you for being on Finding Sounds Mnemonic. Be on the look out for their show/fill-in work.
The second hour, I did a mix including some new music I have found from labels such as Editions Gravats, Transatlantic, and Heat Crimes. There is a bunch of other tunes in there. This one is a mix so its a bit choppy and played with. Enjoy the music.
