Almost 10 years ago, I made a mix inspired by late-period Talk Talk and the Mark Hollis solo album that followed, called Watershed. I’ve made a sequel to that mix, called Headlands. I hope you enjoy it. Happy Epiphany to you all. Rest in peace, Mark Hollis. (91 min)
The concept behind this mix was very simple and concrete in my head, but hard for me to articulate coherently for whatever reason. Here’s some ways I tried: “organic futurism” “rainforest cyborg” “greenhouse A.I.”… uh hopefully one of those makes sense. Anyway here it is, enjoy! Visible Cloaks – Lex Raime – Some Things Can ...More →
This is the third Halloween mix by Scholastics, the follow-up to The Shadows Are A Mercy and Lies are Cheaper than Thrills, but departs from the horror disco & synthwave template of those two mixes for a sound that’s a bit noisier. Phoenix Chorale – Ola Gjeilo: Serenity (O Mangum Mysterium) John Luther Adams – ...More →

This is the sequel to 2013’s Wakanda Astronautics and Space Agency, and follows a Wakandan world ship through a wormhole and into uncharted reaches of deep space and beyond. Like its predecessor, WASA II is half footwork/juke and half other stuff, but everywhere focused on rhythms. Turn on your subwoofer. Scholastics – Wakanda Astronautics and ...More →

From Ore I Labored You is at once crisp and dreamy, nestled halfway between an arid autumn and a sharp winter. It’s full of small, delicate moments which are rendered grand by the intimacy with which they are viewed, a drama in miniature that grows in scale as it draws itself to its full height. ...More →
With Watershed, Scholastics mines the effects left on the universe by late-period Talk Talk. Gorgeous and haunting, this delicately-structured mix is dense with sounds that evoke feelings and ideas that may have been lying dormant. I’m not saying this might make you cry or anything, but, you know. It might make you cry. Or laugh. Or sigh. ...More →
Like a lot of people on the internet, I was enamored with Mad Max Fury Road from the moment the film started. Elements of it crawled up into my brain and began leeching weird feelings, all shiny and chrome, into my body. Weirdly enough, this mix, its name an obscure reference to an in-show video game ...More →
The long delayed 4th edition of what’s become a series rooted in house music. For this one, I wanted something rawer, freer, more organic, groovier, jazzier, less mannered, less atmospheric, less melancholy. Summer’s starting and the heat is permeating further than just the temperature. Let Scholastics cool you down. SIDE A 1. Shur-i-kan – ...More →
We start off season 2 of LAMPSHADE with a haunting and gripping edition of the Live from the Library series. Scholastics has compiled a selection of tunes to prove that a group of disparate songs, played in sequence, can move you beyond in a dance-floor sense. We’re here, in the 21st century. ‘Remix culture’ is old hat at this ...More →
