98 was the year.

Sweet was being stupid.

Sweet was the innocence of asking my love interest if I could kiss her, via letter, and getting told no.

Sweet was being around in the early dawn of the internet.

Sweet was spending every waking moment making music, to the point that I did it in my sleep, becoming so proficient that my fingers couldn’t keep up with my mind.

Is it any good? 

Does it even matter? It’s so old you’d be a fool for passing on a piece of previously unknown Drum and Bass (non-)history. 

bogdanraczynski.com/sweet-98 is brash, fast, stupid, embarrassing, youthful, and sweet.

bogdanraczynski.com/sweet-98 is hinged.

In '98 I made the music and recorded it onto tapes to give away to friends. I have no doubt that every copy is now sitting in a landfill somewhere, except for one.

An old friend from back in the day, whose warm relationship I had nearly forgotten about, a diagnosis in itself, when he contacted me out of the blue, took the love not only to save the tape for over two decades, took the love not only to say hi, but also took the time and care to digitize it and share it with me. 

Thank you, old friend!

I’d completely forgotten I made any of this music; a true time capsule. Unlike your teenage diary I am showing you mine.

PS - this isn't free because I love you all or because I don't care about money and I'm all about the vibe and the scene and the music or any other absolute nonsense like that.

🤢 poison , by Bogdan Raczynski 🗣️

Words are poison. 

Their venom is capable of completely changing the way you think. If you allow it. 

It starts as a tiny thought and feels outlandish, but refuses to go away.

Eventually, you stop fighting and let it breathe. 

You listen to other words by other people. And before you know it you are thinking defiantly. 

Defiance isn’t a bad word. 

Defiance can be a profound act of love. 

Defiance is the thought, resistance is the action. 

Resistance isn’t a bad word. 

Resistance can be a profound act of love. 

Words can also be love, even if they are harsh and shake you to your core. 

This release is a collection of words about colonialism, oppression, genocide, capitalism, racism, white supremacy, and the interconnectedness of it all. 

In these sprawling speeches you will hear many shocking things. 

One critical omission is the voice of the oppressed. 

This decision serves as an inescapable reminder of our longstanding ignorance of the oppresed; let's not lie to ourselves that we care what they have to say, they have been saying it for centuries and we have been ignoring them for even longer. 

The sooner we acknowledge that we do not care the sooner we can ask ourselves why. 

This music is wrong by design. Pairing the drums of dance music with talk of genocide is abominable. This decision serves as a reminder that we are all living as though a genocide is not happening; we laugh, we shop, we entertain ourselves, we go on about our day. Also, let's be honest with ourselves and acknowledge that most of us only started listening in earnest once the news was packaged in an easily consumable way, social media. 

Words are stories but they can also be pleas, warnings, and signals. 

Share this release with others, in your playlists and mixes as an act of defiance, resistance, and love. 

Poison the algorithm. 

Find other voices that shake you, amplify them, think defiantly and with love. 

Do not love systems or governments or borders or places. 

Love people and rights and humanity. 

You are out of excuses. 

They are out of time. 

Erode privilege. 

Erode capitalism. 

Death to colonialism. 

Death to Empire. 

DO NOT SEND MONEY, IT WILL BE REFUSED
