Izabel is based in Amsterdam and running the Lullabies for Insomniacs label www.lullabiesforinsomniacs.org (that evolved out of a radio show hosted by Izabel Caligiore on Melbourne station 106.7 PBS FM).

Tracks

4)    Which track in the mix is your favourite right now?

They are all special for different reasons. For the purposes of the question I’ll say Lara Saint Paul ‘Voodoo Lady’ it’s the most recent record I got in that’s included in this mix.

5)    What was the last record you bought?

The Ecstasy of Saint Theresa – Free-d – amazing ambient from the 90’s

6) What is your favourite track of the last 12 months?

For me it always changes…..I’ll say  Goat – It’s time for fun (the song at the start of my mix). The song was released last year on 7inch after the Swedish group spent time in NY and Brazil recording.

I love everything about this psychedelic anthem, the playful lyrics, arpeggiated synth, pulsating percussion and of course the hypnotic bass.
