Michna/SV4, Seeing Colors: Ghostly Influences

Michna/SV4, Seeing Colors: Ghostly Influences

“Seeing Colors: Ghostly Influences,” Mixed by Michna and curated by SV4, is a wicked little mix that features 60 minutes of ambient and melancholic dance and electro music with remixes and originals from artists such as Orbital, Joey Beltram, The Persuader, Pantha Du Prince, Kraftwerk, Air, I-F, Depeche Mode, The Smiths and The Cure. This is a real treat and has been on repeat for me much of the last few days whilst at work. Scroll down for the free download link making sure you check out the blurb below for more details on Michna and SV4, plus info on the tracks and how the mix came about.

From self-titled Magazine:

It all started with a record sleeve, a minimal blend of Michael Segal’s Boy Cat Bird characters and a Pacman-like logo plastered across a stark black background. Weighing the potential purchase based on nothing but a record shop recommendation and the cover’s simple, striking design, we scooped up Ghostly International’s inaugural Idol Tryouts compilation despite not even knowing who Dabrye or Matthew Dear were.

With Ghostly’s 10th anniversary looming on the horizon this year and School of Seven Bells just weeks away from gracing the cover of self-titled’s third digital issue, we thought we’d ask one of the label’s most promising new signings (Michna, a beat conductor/DJ/former Secret Frequency Crew member who also goes by the name Egg Foo Young) to craft a mix of Ghostly’s scene-spanning influences. He’s joined by Ghostly founder Sam Valenti IV (a.k.a. SV4), a sometime DJ who helped curate Michna’s crate. Together the pair emerged with a heady 60 minutes of melancholic dance music (Pantha Du Prince, Sascha Funke), Italodisco (Giorgio Moroder), essential electro (Kraftwerk), and an ambient house anthem (Orbital’s “Halcyon & On & On”) that left self-titled scrambling for our old copy of The Brown Album. Indie kids are encouraged to uncross their arms and join the fray, as the set ends in a mascara-smeared trifecta of the Depeche Mode, the Smiths and the Cure. Read More….

Tracklist:

  1. Orbital - Halcyon & On & On (FFRR)
  2. Joey Beltram - Enegy Flash (R+S)
  3. The Persuader - What’s The Time, Mr Templar (Svek)
  4. Sascha Funke - Safety First (Kompakt)
  5. Pantha Du Prince - Suzan (Dial)
  6. Klein & MBO - Dirty Talk (Zanza)
  7. Gino Soccio - Remember (Atlantic)
  8. Giorgio Moroder - The Chase (Casablanca)
  9. Der Zyklus -Elektronisches Zeitecho (Gigolo)
  10. I-F - Space Invaders Are Smoking Grass (Interdimensional Transmissions)
  11. Kraftwerk - Numbers (WEA)
  12. Air - Le Soleil Est Pres De Moi (Dopplereffekt Mix) (Source)
  13. Depeche Mode - Everything Counts (Maxi Single Live Version) (Mute)
  14. The Smiths - Stop Me If You Think You’ve Heard This One Before (Rough Trade)
  15. The Cure - Close To Me (WEA)
  16. The Cure - Close To Me (Closest Remix) (WEA)
