Pride 2021 (DJ Mix)
Recording at home in the woods of New Hampshire, Eris Drew joins the old and the new, blending all-time favorites like Kraftwerk’s “Home Computer” with recent obsessions like Gacha Bakradze’s “Elevate” and her partner Octo Octa’s “Find Your Way Home.” Explaining the pacing of her Pride mix, she tells Apple Music, “I build the heat quickly and then settle into a rolling, ecstatic groove, because I felt the need to transform the chaos inside me into something radiant and full of beauty. I included Orbital’s ‘Halcyon and On and On’ because of the power it has in my life to help process and transform difficult states of emotion. It is one of those songs I go back to over and over even when I am not behind a set of turntables, like an endless well of pure water.”
