An all vinyl dub techno mix recorded at home on a cold day.

Lush selects that evoke a heartbeat – constant, warm, comforting. Not without the raw edges of early electronic music. With mostly 90's / 00's  selects all the way through, this mix reminds us that classics are such for a reason. Enjoy :)

This month we are proud to share a potent hour long mix by San Francisco based DJ and AI music researcher Airali.

From Airali – "I had the idea of a nightare unfolding as a guide". 

While this isn't a traditional a dance mix, it contains the same hypnotic signatures as Airali's club sets. Undulating rhythmic through-lines coax us through a hazy cinematic atmosphere that never lets us get too comfortable. It's not all dark however – the occasional sprinkling of analog instrumentation and ethereal vocals amid machine-chaos and dense percussion conjures flora blooming in a concrete landscape.

Previously based in the UK, Airali has played in London-based clubs, including FOLD, Corsica Studios, Venue MOT, and The Glove That Fits, to name a few. In 2022, she completed a mini tour of Japan where she DJ'd at venues Circus, Spread and Forestlimit. More recently, Airali relocated to and debuted in California, where she has played in Oakland and San Francisco. You can dig more into Airali here:

This month, we’re thrilled to feature a high-energy mix from MZ3.

A rising force and latest guest in our (eavesdrop) residency, MZ3 crafts a sound deeply rooted in the UK and sound system culture—but never confined by it. This mix is a kinetic blend of baile funk, reggaeton, and UK bass, weaving together dancefloor-driven intensity with unexpected emotional twists.

A frequent guest at staples like Bossa Nova Civic Club, Nowadays and Mansions, MZ3 has solidified their place in the Brooklyn circuit. Now, they’re set to take things further with a recently announced slot at Dripping, a New Jersey festival that, despite its youth, has already cultivated a reputation for its open-minded crowd and forward-thinking programming.

MZ3 – 03/19/25

This month, we’re excited to welcome leo.nerd to A–Z Radio with a mix that dives deep into rich, textural territory.

Drifting effortlessly through the “slowfast” spectrum, leo.nerd blends laid-back half-time grooves with fluttery bursts of double-time energy. It’s a bright, detailed listen—soaked in dubby atmospheres, splashes of breaks, and melodic touches that shimmer with guitar tones and lush ambience. A seamless journey through the outer edges of drum and bass, jungle, and grey area—pushing boundaries while staying grounded.

It’s immersive, transportive—and it sounds verrrrry good in headphones ;-)

Today we’re excited to share a beautiful mix from Enzo Okumu, who we first met playing records deep into the night at LSD loft :)
An emotional outpour, the mix weaves together raw instrumentation, plaintive vocals, and melodies that wander like thoughts—scattered, improvised, and deeply felt. Drawing from early forms of American music including gospel, blues, soul, and jazz.

Enzo – 07/23/25

We are so excited to share a mix by CIAIC, a new friend and incredible DJ whose taste and breadth is inspirational. 

CIAIC is an Italian DJ based in Paris. An insatiable delver of dance music’s murkiest depths, he draws inspiration from bass-heavy sounds, dub, footwork and beyond to open a gateway for his imagination.

He has crafted a heady 1.5 hours of hazey and frenetic lysergia dipped in oil drum sludge and riddled with tape echo. This mix is unique to CIAIC's playful, imaginative lens yet remains reflective of the forward-thinking underground scenes of Sound-System-geared dance music that are currently making noise in places like Bristol and the south of France.

CIAIC – 09/05/25

This month we are thrilled to welcome Thai-American, Brooklyn-based DJ, composer, and producer Apok to this series :) 

Apok continually strives to weave together a tapestry sounds in his compositions - combining his penchant for cinematic storytelling, deep bass, hypnotic techno, percussive club rhythms and simmering sound design. 

Fresh off his latest EP “Ore” released earlier this year on label Club Dub (@club__dub)which he co-runs, Apok plays a monthly radio residency at Newtown Radio and has graced the decks at clubs such as Mood Ring and Hell Phone.

For A—Z, Apok delivers a shape-shifting session of cinematic, dub-soaked techno. Across its runtime, the mix drifts through fogged-out club abstractions and hypnotic, slow-burn momentum; deconstructing and rebuilding rhythm in unexpected forms. It's a reflection of Apok’s meticulous sound craft and narrative instinct as a producer, grounding experimental impulses in body-moving rhythms.

Apok – 10/15/25

This month we are excited to share a mix from deeeep digger Steven Hickey 📀
LA-based DJ Steven Hickey presents us with an hour of anti-authoritarian oddball music. Sounds of punk, industrial, and dub (name a better trio) can be found here – tied together with impeccable flow that is exercised and echoed in his show Big Nice World on Dutch radio TNP. Happy listening :)

This month on A--Z we are diving into the watery world of artist and DJ Selica.

This mix is a cathartic fusion of cavernous reverbs, lush pad layers, undulating FM textures, and trance-inducing loops – all glued together by transient rhythms and percussive hits that all seems to come from the same universe despite the mix’s diverse range. Dream-like transitions carry us through a montage of oscillator lullabies, many of which are reminiscent of early ambient experiments from artists like The Orb and Jan Jelinek; though this mix never loses its contemporary edge…we're using laptops to make music now, after all. In any case we would love to hear this out loud in a cathedral, no matter the era.

Based in Brooklyn, NY, Selica is also part of the newly formed duo Admiration, whose debut single is out now, with more releases to come. [Check them out here ↗]
