FFF Guest Mix #1: "Vagrant Summer" by Cody Yantis


Cody Yantis, a Denver-based experimental musician and visual artist, has provided the first installment of the FFF Guest Mix. Cody has recorded a number of excellent solo releases under his given name for such reputable labels as Digitalis, Blackest Rainbow, Sunshine Ltd. and Avant Archive. He also actively records in the collaborative projects Tilth and Saguache. For this mix, Cody writes, "I didn't have a set theme, other than I envisioned this as the only kind of summer mix I'm able to make: pretty manic with short and generally high energy songs (at least for me). It does reflect a few of my current listening interests: music from SE Asia (in light of my recent trip), old school hip hop, and, actually, a bit less new experimental music than usual." Basically, it's one wild ride of a listen in the best possible sense. Give it a spin and get in touch if you have an interest in contributing your own mix.
