I first heard Egyptian Lover via the 'Electro' series of cassette tapes, that we used to load into our boomboxes and breakdance to. Good times.

The Sizeable Mix Vol. 52: Fantastic Man

This month’s episode of AIR is our 80th episode! Can you believe! I’m very pleased to welcome Greg Broussard, better known as Egyptian Lover.

Born in LA, Broussard’s musical journey began when he started making mixtapes with his friends in high school, and learning to mix from his older brother. His skills as DJ eventually lead him to join the iconic party collective Uncle Jamm’s Army, whose records were some of the earliest West Coast electro rap releases. A true pioneer, Broussard developed a signature style that blends his freaked out mixing, charismatic rap and lyricism, and of course his beloved 808 drum machine — a piece he picked up in the 80s and hasn’t put down since. When Egyptian Lover plays out, it’s an experience like no other… And in this episode, we’re exploring the creativity of a true originator.

Hailing from Düsseldorf, Time Passages label head Binh takes crate-digging dedication to another level. His ear for discovering unknown gems has made him a long-time underground favourite, often showcasing his wax during marathon-length sets in Berlin or back-to-backs with fellow cult vinyl heads.  Dive into 75 minutes of his signature minimal pressure: thudding kicks and spangled synths, laced with a dark yet futuristic mood. A taste of what’s to come when Binh joins us for the 10th edition of Dekmantel Selectors on the Adriatic coast.

Timeless Mixtape #58 comes courtesy of Brussels-born DJ Rey Colino, the curator behind One Eye Witness, Kalahari Oyster Cult and Mineral Cuts, whose work across labels and distribution has helped shape the trajectory of contemporary club music in recent years.

Here, he crafts a seamless, shape-shifting session: precise, expressive, and unmistakably his own, designed to steer the chemicals.

What unfolds is a tightly controlled session built on tension, intuition and flow.

AIR is an interview podcast series with a different theme each episode. 

Created in 2017, AIR aims to be something different in the wide world of music journalism. Tired of the usual promotional fluff, host Emma Robertson invites artists, DJs, and musicians to get deep on one topic that inspires them — everything from nature, to film, to spirituality — in the hope that it inspires you, too.
