008 Earl Grey

DJ Earl Grey aka Nik Thorup takes us beyond the dancefloor and into the realm of the cerebral. During his month-long residency at Waxflower, Nik spun a cornucopia of captivating and unique records that always left us hungry for more.

We’re still not sure how Nik managed to intertwine so many polarising genres so effortlessly. Few DJs can stroll from ambient to jazz, from folk to dub, making it sound so organic. Maybe there’s a link to be drawn between this kind of musical curation and some of the more adventurous wine-making processes we’ve come to love at Waxflower. Skin-contact wine often leads to bolder, more intense, and less predictable palates. 

Shady wine-making comparisons aside, it was an honour for us to have Nik play for the whole month. We’ve spent plenty of time listening to his recorded sets, so it was a treat to experience his talent live at Waxflower.

For Episode 04 of the Balearic London mix series we've invited the wonderful Piers Harrison. An exceptional DJ, Mysticisms label head, edits expert, an occasional writer for Test Pressing, and big time dub and balearic enthusiast. Most importantly, someone we have huge amounts of respect for, and whose selections we are massive fans of.

Dive into this beautiful mix which we've personally listened to many times already before finally putting it out. It's a true beaut. If you want to hear more from Piers, then we recommend the recording of his 6.5 hour long b2b with Brian Not Brian at Giant Steps which was released on the legendary Trushmix.
