RADICAL MYCOLOGY
MIXTAPE
The Radical Mycology Mixtape is an acoustic archive of mycophilic media. It is a record of symbiont sentiments, a collage of understory recordings, a soundtrack for rainy forays, and an audible love letter to spores in the mist.
Initially inspired by the diversity of acts showcased at each Radical Mycology Convergence’s talent show, the first volume of the Mixtape grew to become a gentle snapshot of the world of mycology just before the big fungi boom. Through 29 tracks of music, field recordings, and poems, the Mixtape offers a misty, meandering foray through this world – one that spirals in the undergrowth and lifts past the canopy.
With its first volume released in 2017 as a limited edition cassette and digital album, the Mixtape is now reimagined as a MYC RAD initiative.
