"You might accuse us of sounding like a broken record, but we need to say it again - DJ Inanna is one of Spineshaker's favourite DJ's. Why? Because her mixes continue to show amazing diversity in style, she produces some excellent tracks, and she oozes creativity from every pore. This latest mix is a beautiful journey into the surreal. Next time you need a trip to some foreign country, throw this mix on instead - it will take you there." - Spineshaker.com

 







02.12.08 San Francisco and LA here I come. Going back to the west side for a few weeks, gettin my shizzle on at The End Up in San Fran on V-Day. So, have you heard, garage is back? (and I will be throwin some down in San Fran) Check it

12.14.07 I'm currently sitting on the floor of my boyfriends studio apartment, smoking a freshly rolled spliff. I'm revisiting this mix, contemplating one year later what motivated me then, and what still makes it central to my reality now. Its an honest mix. What do I mean by honest?

I set out with specifics goals when making this mix. There are two central ideas that compromise it and I followed an emotional and analytical formula. This was quickest mix I have recorded to date, 4 days. Its a translation of how I feel about love, god, and every crazy, wonderful, sad, beautiful, phenomonal, frightening thing about everything. Each track was a petal to the flower. It was as much about the space in between as the sounds themselves. Its about the void, and what fills it. With each track I chose I asked, what does this say, if anything? I wanted a suttle mix of genres. Each track was played out almost in its entirety, every note had to be heard.

This mix was also silently dedicated to someone for there inspiration in its making. People, as flawed as we think we are, are miraculous creatures. We allow each other to experience love, and a whole collection of other emotions and experiences. If it is only for a moment we come together, I can always be thankful for what people allow me to experience and what they teach me. This is a recognition of the beauty, and the ugliness, that people can create together.

A year later I can still listen to it and enjoy it. I'm still in that place.

08.26.07 "I continue to listen to the Tongue and Cheek mix over and over. I love it, it takes so many elements of music that I love and puts them into one: minimal, detroit, haunting melodies, cerebral effects, warmth and soul. There is a maturity about it, a deep understanding of music and emotion. This mix has been an emotional and spiritual grounding point for me this summer, and I thank you. If you are ever coming up to Alberta, please let me know. I'd love to not only have a chance to see you perform, but perhaps extend your trip to edmonton." Thank you Aaron!

 


 



 










"It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, and everlasting beauty of monotony."
