Number fifty-seven...! presented by the sweetest and ever talented @djluvyou . DJ Luv You (Ophelia Bakowski) is a non-binary DJ and multidisciplinary visual artist. Rotating between light and joyful rare groove to HI-NRG playful club selections, Ophelia is known for combining the influences of disco and contemporary dance music in fluid dynamic effect.

In this mix, Ophelia shows off their dancey, party energy side, with proggy bangers, euphoric trance and housey vibes. Ophelia has made some amazing contributions to the Naarm (Melbourne) scene - they co-founded the queer/femme lead Naarm party LUNA Blessings, which focuses on booking artists from womxn, queer and GNC communities to curate safe and inclusive dance experiences.

Thank you so much for this one Ophelia <3

A very special treat for number seventy two. Presenting a live recording of DJ Camov's set at my favourite party in Naarm, Tech World, last month. Grant soundtracked the sunny February afternoon with a boss selection of the classiest house, tech house and prog records... 

Grant is a Melb deejay icon, having frequented clubs, raves and park parties for the last decade in a chameleon like fashion. He now resides in Copenhagen and also djs under his deep diving trance alias @goasis

So excited to share one this one, one of my favourite club sets as of late!

Thanks again Grant <3 and shouts to Dylan Batelic @papercutslimited for the mastering.

BSRMIX #123 - DJ Luv You

Bizarro Blends 89 // DJ Luv You

A masterclass in heady house grooves by Aarhus-based tastemaker C.K. We’ve been pretty intoxicated by the way C.K has put himself on the map. Operating under a cloak of mystery, the Aarhus residing DJ and producer has carved out a little niche corner with his Safe Distribution crew when it comes to making classy and well-thought-out house music - stuff that we personally keep coming back to and consider “timeless” goodness. Just back from his US tour, we caught up to hear about his latest developments. 

Full interview with C.K here: https://oddysee.fm/podcasts/ck/

Interview

Oddysee 044 | 'Music For Oddysee' by C.K

Celebrating the hundredth Animix with some of Animalia's very own - a special live set recorded at the Animalia event in May by Ebbs n Flow (@ebbsnflow), the brainchild of Will Holden & Dashiell. Will is @undergroundcityloop, and one half the iconic Melbourne chuggy trance duo @hybridmn. Dash (@dashiell) has released solo tunes on Animalia, and also makes up one third of Animalia's very own boyband, Ménage (@menagerecords). 

In their new project, the two have paired together to create cheeky, steppy tunes which delve into tech house, garage & d'nb inspired sounds. Ebbs n Flow released a couple of tunes on Animalia's recent compilations and have much more in the works.. so happy to share this mix with everyone for number 100!

Thanks everyone for following the label & mix series

The Sizeable Mix Vol. 1: Rey Colino

Love is the message in the latest episode from local legend @djluvyou! Playing like a personal ode to the dancefloor, the mix is overflowing with heavenly deep house classics and hints of early 90s prog and trance to get you feeling all the feels and ready to sweat! 

Some words on the mix with DJ Luv You:

Q. I noticed that you included a bunch of songs with lyrics about love throughout the mix which I’m guessing was no accident! Tell us a bit more about the theme you had in mind here, and what kind of feelings you were hoping to evoke?

A. I’ve always been attracted to the more joyful side of dance music and I think it just kinda happened in digging for records, as one does looking for a certain aesthetic of a label sticker or a particular artist. For me, the word ‘love’ just always seems catch my attention. I wanted to focus on that energy for this mix, something quite emotional and nostalgic while still maintaining that movement and euphoria about it that you just can’t help but move to!"

Q. What other inspiration did you draw upon when putting the mix together? Is there a particular sound, time period in dance music history or a memory of yours that connects all the different elements in one way or another? 

A. I wanted to create a bit of an origin story for myself. This 90s era of sound has really become an obsession and identity, it feels like the perfect link for me between the two other worlds of dance music that I love; The rare groove housey side and the new wave proggy electronic and trance influenced sound. You’ll find hints of both here in this mix.

I also just wanted to put as many of my favourite records into this mix for my own listening pleasure. When you're doing something for yourself first and foremost there’s a pureness to the way things flow together. This recording was just one of those improvised moments using a really lovely Condesa mixer and enjoying myself fully.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are particularly close to your heart, and if so what’s the story behind them?

I feel like I rarely play a set without this record making an appearance haha, "When You Love Someone" by Daphne. Its versatility seems to fit any mood or space for me. Allowing me to move from disco into something more contemporary or as an emotive breath towards the end of a hot and heavy electronicy set.

Q. And finally, I see you’re on your way over to Europe at the end of the month. What do you have coming up over there that you’d like to tell us about?

A. Yes, super excited to be heading over till October for my first international tour, opening up with Kala Festival in Albania. Then a run of club shows and more summer festivals across France, Germany, Netherlands, UK and Bulgaria. Looking forward to skipping winter and enjoying the sun with what feels like every other naarm dj ;)

About the mix: Recorded in December last year at the beloved Club 77 in Eora (Sydney).

Please enjoy this frolic through euphoric 90s house and high NRG joyful rave.
