When Ploy released the 2018 club smash 'Ramos', it was clear he’d hit on a winning formula.

Like the music of his Timedance label mates Batu, Bruce, Lurka et al, this was slick, modern dance music full of know-how and technical trickery – but it was also cheeky, with an infectious energy that gave it head-turning appeal and real staying power.

Ploy's contribution to our Crack Mix series maintains this same energy as well, as it races through themes and styles that influenced his 'Rayhana' EP – out now via his new label Deaf Test.

Crack Mix 430: Ploy

A long time coming, the third and last installment of NHJ's "No, I" mix series. 
6 years on and our protagonist is still paying the mortgage… along with child support and now victim restitution, stemming from an unhappy ‚ misunderstanding’ whilst waiting for a Żabka hotdog.

NO, I? 3  ||  2023

Every month I ask myself the same question: have I not played this before? Although the music is always different, I tend to be drawn to similar sounds over and over again. Having said that you will never hear the same tracks in any of my mixes. It might've happened once or twice but no more... The challenge is to create something new every time that is influenced by an idea or current mood. To distil and filter these releases, weaving them together unexpectedly so they resonate within each of us through an infinite journey to The Other Side.

I’ve been holding back on this as I had hopes it would get picked up exclusively by online media or for a podcast series as I did with my 2017 set, but I’ve decided to put it out through my own channels before the year is out instead (as nobody seemed to be interested in anything other than studio mixes!!??).....It might also come as an early Xmas present for those who came along with me for the ride and have been eagerly awaiting the recording - better late than never I guess! 
What can I say about the gig - it’s hard to put into words, I was completely overwhelmed by the energy that I witnessed rapidly coalesce in the sweltering hot room that night. The Freerotation crowd is surely one of the world’s most musically open-minded and supportive that you could ever hope to find as a DJ, and so many inspired & magical moments promptly ensued with the distinct sense of musical freedom that had overcome me. DJ-ing on the opening night was an absolute pleasure with so much excitement in the air, and to have the opportunity to play music at this wonderful event once again, was truly an honour. 
I hope that these sentiments are reflected in this recording, and that it gives those that were there the chance to re-live some of that magic. Peace.

Gratitude to all my friends for their continued love, support and encouragement.
Respect to all the promoters who have got behind me with bookings.
Big-Ups to all the ravers for the boundless energy they’ve brought to the dance-floors I've played to.

Hessle Audio with Ben UFO & Oceanic - 7th January 2019

Intensely chill hypnotic vibes coming from Melbourne - for the #19th mix we’ve asked a talented young DJ from the other side of the planet named @kia-sydney. A few months ago we stumbled upon her mixes, and have been playing them over and over. We’re honoured to present the first mix of her on this hemisphere. Big thanks to Kia for making this one for us.

Strichka review

Lobanov K. live at Strichka Festival

@SolarSF and @Mozhgan have been kind enough to let us upload their barnstormer of a set from The Island, and by gum this one’s a humdinger. 

For those of you who live under rocks, Solar and Mozhgan popped over from San Francisco to give Bristol’s best venue a proper talking to - and a proper talking to they indeed gave it. The duo took us through selections of punk-laced EBM, futurist minimal synth, headbang techno and old-school acid drivers, solidifying their status as our favourite Bay Area couple! 

As a mix, it is unpredictable, obscure and diverse, but without meandering from a central theme of dark, moody, fun-as-fuck party slammers (DJ Bigos hit us up) - we feel incredibly blessed to have been able to host these two and add this to our humble little series.

Not to mention preserving one of our favourite parties, and some fond memories with 2 of our favourite guests!

Recorded live at The Island, Bristol, 31st January 2020.
