Rory Phillips’ White Light Mix MP3

May 03, 2010


Distinguished London DJ Rory Phillips purportedly locked himself in a dark room and based this mix not on beat-matching but on vibes, which tend towards the zig-zag treble and sneering basslines of post-punk. Phillips, known for co-hosting London's infamous Trash party with similar-minded DJ Erol Alkan, submitted the 24th entry in White Light. It's a series started by DJs Neoteric and Matty C and meant to combat the preponderance of frazzled, ADD internet mixes with timeless song selection and painstaking blends—patience over immediacy.
