The Dancefloor state of mind: a complex feeling, a mix of euphoria, anxiety, energy and lucid dreaming… Hard to describe in words but best defined by Argenis Brito and his Instropections mix, where techno is sweetened by his Venezuelan roots and acid house suddenly makes sense close to electro. As usual, a mix built exclusively with his own productions.

Watch out for Argenis Brito and his new track alongside Guti! Amazonico is part of the VA that marks the birth of a new label: Never On Monday Records, on 09.05.2025.

Introspections with Argenis Brito

Live Jam // May 2025

After the response from her more downtempo track for our Free Download series we thought it only right to follow up with Xiaolin for a mix for our InSessions series. The Hong Kong native is well-versed in all manner of electronic music spheres, but her penchant lies at the rawer, bleepy end of house music and minimal. As well as these serious club sounds, Xiaolin is also a fine purveyor of more traditional sounds and is a regular face on the Canto Pop scene. 

Recorded live at Mihn Club in Hong Kong, Xiaolin takes control of the atmospheric nightspot from the very beginning of this episode of our mix series. Stripping the action back to the fundamental elements, she injects power moves after power moves into the dancefloor as if priming for tracks that are yet to be introduced. Her unhurried, methodical touch speaks volumes as the next groove and bassline comes thudding into view. While the poppier side of her sound is more carefree, Xiaolin’s mix for our podcast series offers freedom of mind as well as of body.

Xiaolin - Trommel InSession 155

Having been instrumental in introducing Techno and its many sub genres to his corner of the Balkans, he has since gone on to become one of the biggest touring artists to have entered the game. Via his own many original works and remixes on a huge variety of labels, including his own Recon Warriors / Recon Light, Traffica Records, and more recently Easy Tiger, Marko has kept his sound fresh and forward-thinking at all times.

LOSOUL is back on SLICES OF LIFE with two minimal house gems!

Frankfurt-based DJ and producer legend @losoul  is renowned for his unique sonic language and deep, captivating grooves.
On his latest release for the Berlin imprint, the tracks take us on a journey back to the roots of minimal house - raw, stripped-down, and deeply immersive.

"Post Service Pop" on the A-side flows deep and funky, spreading pads like hot oil, topped with subtly modulated vocal snippets.

"Modesty Bump" on the B-side dives into rawer territory with high-energy sounds and edgy sonic sparkles, while maintaining that minimalistic, steady, driving groove we all love in Losoul’s work: groovers and grinders for the long-distance runner’s soundtrack.

Tracklisting:
A: Post Service Pop (08:55)
B: Modesty Bump (10:20)
