This mix was inspired by late summer night walks to the club, as the sun goes down and the excitement for the night ahead building - or those final hours of sun at a festival when the anticipation for what’s ahead is at it’s peak. It’s a collection of records I’ve been enjoying a lot this summer and ones you’ll hear a lot in my coming festival sets. Both for early hours and late night missions.

Probably our last Down To Earth night we put on alongside Public Affair and @pressuredome at Strange Brew in Bristol a few weeks ago. The energy and positivity in that room was the best I’ve felt in a while and all the DJs were sick. The party was a mega success and being able to run it with friends made it all the more rewarding.

New @remotif mix on @deephouse-tehran, I think I’ve listened to it about 20 times. I’ve not heard a mix from Joe in this lane before, deep, broken, low-slung flowing into trancey goodness. It’s a cracker.

Probably my parents, they’re real music heads. Most times I head back home we just sit up all night going b2b2b on Spotify or YouTube or whatever trying to one up each other for a reaction. I’ve always been surrounded by music and encouraged to explore different genres or scenes

kinetic mix 012: Ollie Kirk "final hour of the summer sun"

A new guestmix by @bethan_l 😍
Bethan is a DJ currently based in London, and can often be found playing at East London’s much loved queer venue, Dalston Superstore, where she is a resident & promoter of ‘Happy Endings’ & ‘Bodycon’. As well as Superstore, Bethan has recently played for parties such as Creatures, Tickle, Big Dyke Energy & more, and is set to make her UK festival debuts this summer. Her style is not limited to one specific genre, as she enjoys digging deep into her collection, playing a variety of 90s/early 2000s selections mixed with newer releases covering downtempo, early trance, progressive house, techno, jungle & beyond, with a constant drive to find the sublime.

«The mix is quite predictable, but as I recorded this mid June on a hot day in London, the mix mainly consists of summery house/trance tracks - it’s a quite emotional in parts, as well as camp & slightly cheesy - I hope it makes you a little bit happy»

space•cast 014 comes from Ireland's eoin dj and is packed full of their signature pumping jams from start to finish. This is a properrrr fun ride through the progressive house spectrum and is perfect to bang out on a hot summer's eve.

“I’m super pleased to share this mix, it’s the result of some long digging sessions and features nearly all tracks from the 90’s and 00’s, some from rare CDs. 

It reflects the darker side of my sound, which i’m absolutely loving at the moment 🌘

I ended on an unreleased edit of a Medicine Drum track by my dad, he’s had a big influence on me so felt like the right place for it!”

It’s been a while since we have added to our monthly examination series, and not a lot of people know that a month in the liquid realm is as long or short as your mind’s imagining. It’s true, just look inside yourself bbz. You know it feels right.

In this rotation we are treated to a blessed gift beyond comprehension. A spirit that was brought into our knowing through their recent offering ‘Aquazul’ on Dream Software. Wigs has encapsulated what it feels like to enter the dream theater, pure downtempo & balearic indulgence that will satisfy the soul and allow it to float 4eva. We thank Wigs infinitely for this gift.
Elevate, resonate & perforate into paradise…

The Sizeable Mix Vol. 11: Reflex Blue (Live)

BLUSH002 - @aidenfrancis

Blush aims to help soothe the queer spectrum and focus on the well-being of the community. Queer DJs are invited to submit a mix to showcase an alternative side to their music library outside of a rave and take us on a meditative journey. ✨

Notes on the mix:

"For this mix, I wanted to use some of the downtempo and ambient tunes that I love and usually don’t get to play out. Like most people, I use downtempo music to focus; for work, reading or relaxation, so I wanted to put something together that moves through different energies and textures and showcases some of the lighter music that I like. Did I also mix PLO Man into Madonna? Yes, yes I did 💅🏼"

Sourcing influences from 90s Tech, house, trance and breaks Aiden Francis' pure passion for underground electronic music radiates through his music and DJ sets. Effortlessly drifting between different sounds and aesthetics, Aiden has managed to break himself free from the constraints of genre so that his true creative prowess can be flexed in full. 

The lack of constraint overflows into Aiden's DJ sets, providing highly energetic experiences that flows through a unity of sounds, cultures and voices. This varied approach to DJing has found Aiden's name appear on high-quality events across the UK and Europe.

Our next podcast release comes from Dublin based @fuaimdub resident @highingfly, who takes you from peak time to early morning with this bouncy yet mystical mix. 

Check out our interview with him below

Sean, he/him, Dublin 

+ 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐢𝐱
For the concept of this mix I wanted to put together a selection of tracks inspired by some of my favourite moments on the dance floor this year. Those times when the night stretches into early morning, and the energy is electric, yet the atmosphere is mystical and dark.

For the mix I tried to focus on the stripped back low-end driven sides of trance and progressive music, hopefully capturing the energy and atmosphere of those memorable sections of club nights.

As the mix unfolds, there's a progression in energy to play on being drawn deeper into those nights where you can feel that building sense of liveliness and anticipation.

+ 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 / 𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐛 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨?
@subsystem-transmissions and @sustain-release-nyc look incredible 

+ 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐮𝐩?
Unfortunately Dublin’s party scene is fairly limited because of the laws around opening hours which are hopefully changing soon, but I really like what @the_solace_space are doing as a party and a collective 

+ 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐉 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐮𝐩?
Have to big up my @fuaimdub companions @sandrewsmusic, @steckybone and @feargaloconnell, all amazing djs and people

Wasn’t a club experience but it would have to be @draaimolen this year, it was something very special to witness and I was riding a high after it for weeks

+ 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲?
Needs to have a crispy and punchy sound system, then some trippy minimal lighting, an energetic crowd with lots of space and probably somewhere in nature like a forest or a mountain range 

+ 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧?
How friendly everyone is, I didn’t realise this until someone mentioned it to me recently, but after doing a bit of travelling and thinking about it Dublin does have a special way about it when it comes to the people. There’s warmness and friendliness you experience on a night out that’s hard to find anywhere else

+ 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐢𝐱 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫?
The vocals of Paranoid London's "Paris Dub 1" over Mr. G's "Let Down (Badly)" – they complement each other perfectly.

Gotta be Berlin, there’s just no place like it, although I’ve many places I still need to experience

Too many to choose from but three that came to mind are @agonis-amenthia live at transcendence, @yanmmxiv & @fred-czital at @monument-podcast, and @mikemidnight on @vortexvortexvortex
