Ghunghru 063 // Toph / The Shape of Memory by ghunghru published on 2024-01-29T07:01:48Z Words by Toph (@t_o_p_h) about his sonic memory: When I was thinking about this mix, my mind went to my iTunes/Apple Music library, which I’ve used actively since 2006, almost half my life. I remember sitting in a Los Angeles apartment back then, ripping CDs, rating the tracks I felt something for. Now, scrolling back through songs I’ve loved feels like spinning a radio dial across my life, scanning through flashbulb memories. The music transports me to the state of mind I was in when I listened, however many years ago, but with the added perspective you get from seeing those moments concertina’d up. I can make out the shape of narrative arcs; follow threads that I thought in the moment I had lost; see where I was and know where I would go. I tried to recreate that feeling with this mix: drawing tracks from across the span of my music library, outlining an emotional current that ebbs and flows through the music I resonate with. It’s tough to put into words (thankfully easier to put into a mix). It’s a sonic representation of an emotional journey that I’m still on. Sometimes I feel like it’s hard to know myself clearly, but I shouldn’t feel that way. I know my innermost self well, and maybe the journey is learning to trust that more.
