Merchant w/ DJ Tracksuit - March 2022

Stockholm based (but you can often find him on party’s in the Netherlands) MO))) spoiled us with a 3,5 hours set consisting of only quality grooves to delight your soul. His presence on the dancefloor is indispensable and he brings us the same energy in this mix. MO))) brings us Moroccan gnawa, Brazilian jazz-funk and warm soulful deep house. Lovely people, enjoy 😊

All Things Nice w/ BEVAN @ Open Source Radio (March 2022)

Bside incoming: Sunni D

In episode #152 we welcome Sunni D!

Beginning his journey on the airwaves of local radio stations, Daniel has now become an exciting prospect within the London circuit, having performed at venues such as Spiritland and booked to play under the likes of John Morales and Kirollus in early June. 

Nowadays, he is no stranger to the radio airwaves, busying himself by backpacking around his hometown armed and ready with the finest feel-good selections for his respective monthly shows on LooseFM, Voices Radio and Brixton Radio. 

Daniel’s reverence for uplifting dance music encompasses retro disco, funk and soul from all corners of the globe, persistently delving into genres such as zouk, soca, brazilian and rare disco, as well as the more hard-hitting sounds of Brazilian house and UK breakbeat. 

Expect an eclectic mix of goodies this episode, starting off with some soothing soul and grooves from across the African and South American continents, then moving all the way through to early 2000s Brazilian house and 90s breakbeat, and finally finishing off on a euphoric high with some blissful funk and soul classics.

Nofraje - 31 Octobre 2022

Lesson

[verse 1]
i am electric, livin out my dreams, this ain't inception
frenetic and hot, so please forgive my interjections
my weapon of choice, to keep me up and out the void
might be my razor sharp mind, write rhymes and
stay annoyed
you enjoy the self obsession, the attention and mentions
but i deploy all my defenses to avoid
whatever you on
im sick of these relentless undressings, and happy endings
do you feel the
sun yet? heatin up as much as too-sawn
im too gone, for you to posture that disturbed
burning bridges, you prepared for the worst
not all given is earned
the road to riches isn't meant for the cursed
it's on you to figure out what you worth,  go to church

[falsetto chorus]
its absurd!
the things we do for love (do for love)
you're the worst
still we rise above, ride the bus

[falsetto chorus]
its absurd!
the things we do for love (do for love)
you're the worst
still we rise above, ride the bus
every day, i stand in longer lines
every day, i just pass the time
it's absurd
the things we do for love (do for love)
you're the worst
still we rise above, ride the bus

[falsetto chorus]
its absurd!
the things we do for love (do for love)
you're the worst
still we rise above, ride
the bus

[verse 2]
amazed by the way that you take vacation
and dismayed by the way we sank, push me off of the brink
im done with waitin for the levee to break
i just take my check, walk it down to the bank
im cantankerous, a breaker wouldn't break me away
an oil tanker couldn't keep 

me at bay, it's all i neeed to say (all i need to say)

[falsetto chorus]
its absurd!
i heard that you
wanted me to know
that your open door is closing soon

Bevan's influences as a DJ first started with the deep, garage house sound from NY and Chicago. From here he built up a record collection largely consisting of modern soul, disco, boogie, house and UK garage. You can expect to hear these genres in his mixes along with newer influences he has picked up in recent months
