There we go... everything is gonna be okazay

My first mix in 7 years! sounds about right, as I write this I'm 6 years into a demanding and rewarding career in commercial real estate, my eldest son is 7.5  and my youngest is almost 5, life is good and I've still managed to keep djing through it all, just not hitting record that often! 
I took a different approach to this with time so limited these days, it's a pure studio mix done in ableton with some recorded automation for eq, but I tried to let the tracks do their thing mostly. I'm going to keep trying this studio mix stuff as I like the efficiency of it combined with the thoughtfulness of the programming. I'm hoping I  can put some stuff out more regularly this way. 
The inspiration for these vibes rides on the tail of a set I played for a friend's celebration recently where all positive vibes were necessary,  hopefully achieving the goal of lifting us all up through this wonderful music. Track list as follows:

1. Deep in the Three - Thyladomid, Adratique - 2DIY4
2.. What You Need (Enzo Elia Balearic Gabba Edit)- Soft House Company - Hell Yeah Recordings
3. Your Personal Healer feat. Juju - Move D. - Uzuri Recordings
4. Fling Up Your Wig (Extended Mix) - Harlem Zip Code - Paper Recordings
5. Closer (Fred Everything and Olivier Desmet Remix) - Mood II Swing feat. Carol Sylvan - Nite Grooves
6. High Tower (Yoruba Soul Mix) - James Curd - Exploited
7. No Sleeep (Soul Clap Remix) - Janet Jackson - bootleg (I think?) 8. Closer Than Close (Mentor Remake) - Rosie Gaines - Crimson
9. Hoping (Herbert's High Dub) - Louie Austen - Accidental JNR

Late Morning Beach Set from Pachena Bay Music Festival

I am thrilled to share this interpretation of my set from Pachena Music Festival, 2023 in Huu-ay-aht territory. This was my third time in this beautiful place but the first time at this festival (or any festival here). I have to admit I am now a huge fan of the silent disco medium and would jump at the opportunity to do it again, this was my first time playing one and then after my set I enjoyed it as a dancer too.  It was a pleasure choosing the music for this and appreciate so much all the positive feedback I've received since. This set is dedicated to my boys, Freddie and Makai, who had the time of their lives at this family friendly festival, and special mention to my eldest Freddie, who woke up at 2am to come dance to my set, highlight of my summer for SURE! 

Big thanks to Ben and Kat Howells for the opportunity and for throwing such a rad festival, and to the Huu-ay-aht Nation for hosting us in one of the most beautiful places on planet earth.
