“Everything I need to know finds me at the perfect time”
Late at night when all the world is sleeping, I stay up and… listen to hardcore techno and clean my room? KKINGBOO of gender-expansive, Black-owned Oakland label 7000COILS (co-curated with Lalin St. Juste) delivers the high-BPM booty bass goods with “gender fluids”, a 42-min mix intended to serve as a completion spell. In other words, press play and “complete any task you’ve been procrastinating to do,” whether that means tidying up your space or just smoking and clearing your mind. Frenetic and hyper-kinetic, the mix sails through sped up club music from around the world and the Bay, including hip hop, reggaeton, a little Selena, and the dance-and-truth track “Fuck Your Wack Ass Club” by Madre Guía (originally released on the Fire Szn EP last year). Rhythm, energy, swiftness, soaring.
