Drift Away with a Dreamy Mix from Sky Society

Sky Society joins the This Is Home series and crafts an enchanting mix that will perk up your ears and ease you into the week!

Sky Society is a project that was brought to life in 2013 by mastermind Juany Santos, who set grand intentions from the beginning. Founded on the values of creating higher ways of thinking, living, and connecting via music, arts, and humanity he’s gone on to build a loyal community and brand that honors the power of music while consistently growing and transforming the project since inception.

Born in Queens, Santos was inspired by music on the radio early on in his life. Whether it was Merengue, Salsa, Bachata, Funk, Disco, Pop, or Alternative, there was something about music that ignited a fire in him to explore it more deeply. In his teen years, he began to learn to beat-match and mix, which led him to chopping samples, producing his own mixtapes, and diving into aspects of music theory to sharpen his abilities. All these experiences and influences have culminated into what Sky Society is today.

Now living in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Sky Society recently collaborated with Ehiorobo on “Holy Time.” A chill tune that straddles the line of R&B and lo-fi hip-hop, it draws listeners in with Ehiorobo’s crooning vocals and keeps you engaged with a melancholic beat. The track is a stark representation of Sky Society’s influences as it combines elements from across the electronic spectrum to experiment and create something fresh.

Lancaster’s chill, and geographically it’s easy to get to all the bigger metropolitan cities, which is where I find myself playing out more nowadays.
In 2016 I was actually living in both Chicago and Lancaster, every other week on a plane playing residencies I hosted at the time. I opened my own record shop that year as well in downtown Lancaster, it was an art gallery and small music venue too.
By 2020 we outgrew that space, and now the focal point is launching the label Higher Frequency Recordings while planning out our upcoming releases for the next year or two.
I’m an avid record collector with a collection of around 15,000 at the moment, until the right real estate opportunity presents itself I’m continuing to expand the collection and keep my track selection the freshest for our Live radio show every Sunday 5-7 pm EST via Crate Digs. You know the vizzy vibes.
