justilicious Hello! Got my cassette. So fun. But is the Rosin track included on the stream? I thought if I bought cassette i got the whole thing digitally.

JVAN I miss cassettes so much, and I still have some, but I do not have a player. This compilation can be divided into four tapes about five tracks on each side. Great new sounds on here, I am glad I got it.

kris_tba I made this. Favorite track: Fathom.

about

Lives Through Magic is a compilation of eclectic electronic music, with all proceeds to benefit the victims of the Ghost Ship fire in Oakland, CA. All proceeds (minus physical production costs and shipping) will be equally divided between the Immediate Oakland Fire Relief Fund (www.youcaring.com/ourcommunityaffectedbytheoaklandghostshipfire-715087) and the Trans Assistance Project, which is an ongoing program that helps trans folks meet their real-time financial, legal, and medical needs.

The title Lives Through Magic is adapted from a quote by pop Keith Haring about drawing - but I believe the sentiment applies to all forms of creativity, individual and communal. “Drawing is still basically the same as it has been since prehistoric times. It brings together man and the world. It lives through magic.” (I also appreciate the wordplay created by the alternate definitions and pronunciation of “lives”.) This compilation has been birthed due to a tragic event, but I do not want the compilation to be a souvenir of a tragedy. I am instead aiming for a positive document of the beauty that exists in the minds, bodies, and spirits of our small, but global community. Many of the folks contributing have all played in, lived in, and truly loved DIY spaces like Ghost Ship.
