I could not not publish a mix for Pride month, so I dived back in, like the boy in Hockney’s painting, and got to work. unlike Alice, instead of falling down the rabbit hole, we fell down the PC hole.this time around, I chose to pay homage to queer trailblazers, past, present, and future. with sounds that are bigger than life, anthemic, eclectic, bizarre, these artists help break the mould. they show us a way outside heteronormativity and help us embrace our true selves. the way some of these artists create - turning what is usually regarded as scraps of noise into a beautiful mess called art - is also a good metaphor of queer people living in a society that disregards them and casts them out. this mix is a celebration of the bizarre, the unique, and the flamboyant. love is free, baby. as we slowly learn to be together again after a harrowing year, this is an invitation to lose yourself in a crowd of sweaty bodies. it is an urgent rallying cry to dance as an act of resistance, it is a call to fight for the emancipation of all queer bodies. the name “pac choi” is a play on words between my name, Pacôme, and a staple vegetable of South-East Asian cuisine, Pak Choy. 🥬
