Xanadoo

Garbage Flowers showed up in conversation with fellow DJ-curious pal Zahra, as a shorthand for the concept of beauty that can only be borne from the shittiest moments of life, those ruptures required to open up space for growth. We planted an unsanctioned garden in a public space, and as we tended to (& ignored) the seeds, they filled with plastic, cigarette butts, meds and eventually blooms, which were ultimately ripped out before they came to full fruition. This mix is inspired by these nonlinear journeys, with notes of compost, repetition, the erotic, beauty, emo living room ballet and the power of dance to work it through the body.
