Artwork arranged by Sara Sheridan, developed by me. I'll never forget seeing Paris Is Burning for the first time this Winter and struggling to contain the thought-flow that emerged. What I grabbed on to most about the film and vogueing culture was how much the concept of Realness (I use caps for reasons) in Harlem's black homosexual community applies to the fluidity of identity and expression in today's digital music culture. Realness is obviously bigger than remix and dance music culture and is timeless, though it's important to remember the timeliness of [...]
No More Trash This month marks the last piece of trash I have to offer you. After 8 mixes of live and direct tunes, I am bidding the "Trash In the Bassment " series adieu. I owe all listeners and viewers an enormous thank you for supporting these, I feel extremely lucky to be sharing my passion for music with the world, however niche or limited that world may be. From blog-love to New Yorker magazine-love this mix series has undoubtedly been a positive addition to the musical landscape. [...]
In case anyone was paying attention, Trash In the Bassment was put on hold for the month of August due to a more "polished" effort entitled "Cognitive Estrangement." After working in the realm quick assemblage, it felt only natural to do something with a little more vision and structure. The "Cognitive Estrangement" mix features the still messy sonics of live mixing, but with a clearer direction, fusing the accessibility of underground dance music producers with the oblique and heady sounds of Dubstep's most progressive. The desired result challenges the ear while keeping the feet tapping. [...]
Hi, my name is Stefan Nickum and I go by " The Crooked Clef " as a DJ. I'm unofficially based out of Seattle but operate globally as a contributor here at Trash Menagerie where I write frequently about streetwise dance music, heavy in bass, from around the globe. In addition to writing, I mix and record a live set of music in a monthly series entitled "Trash in the Bassment." Genres highlighted in these mixes include, but are not limited to, Dubstep, Electro, UK Funky, Tropical, Cumbia, Baltimore Club, and Kuduro. So far the mix has been featured [...]
Hype-Can Volume 6 may be one of the more cohesive entries into the "Trash In the Bassment" catalog , if not the hypest. Previous installments run on the eclectic side, doing many things at once in an amorphous melange of bass heaviness. I hope this one is shorter on motley and heavier on crew as recurring genres and sounds lace what is a particularly high-energy set of the best in bass from the month of June. Recorded in a live, one-take fashion by myself ( The Crooked Clef ), this critically-acclaimed [...]
Here for your spring-time listening pleasure is the best in bass music from the month of April! And for all the Eustaces out there, this mix series is now New Yorker magazine approved courtesy of pop music critic Sasha Frere-Jones . You'll notice too that the first half of this month's mix may seem heavy on the ragga tip , but be assured it only reflects a month that's been happily drenched in ragga. Perhaps it's a result of the month's budding flowers, the celebration of bud, or Budweiser (unrelated), but regardless [...]
Red, Gold, and Green Marking the 3rd installment of the Trash Menagerie feature "Trash In the Bassment," here is the best in bass from the month of March! Culled from a variety of blogs (including our own), music I've purchased, as well as the occasional exclusive, you're bound to be buried in low-end frequencies. Links to song downloads at their original blog post are available in the tracklist, and songs are available for purchase at your local web-based record store. This mix was mixed live using black Technics 1200 MKII's, a Pioneer DJM-400, and [...]
I'm pleased to introduce a brand new feature here on Trash Menagerie called "Trash In the Bassment." Recorded at the end of the month in my basement, I will bring you a live one-take of my favorite songs of that month. Featured in the mix will be a collection of songs I've posted here on the website, songs I've downloaded from other great blogs, as well as songs I've purchased. Not only are tunes fun when they're free, they can only continue to be fun when you pay for them. The intention behind the live nature of this [...]

Mittelschmerz

Trash MenagerieHere to greet your winter woes is "Mittelschmerz." Mixed live by me, The Crooked Clef , this mix features a big frozen lake, but hopefully somewhere in the middle you will find a small hole with which to look at fish and other wildlife. Guaranteed to be genre and ear busting, this mix isn't so much a warm winter fire as it is a firey shot of slightly overpriced whisky. Choke it down.
