Zola strikes back as the Disco Queen of Berlin. Her mix is a perfect blend of Disco-flavoured House Music with splashes of Jazz, Funk, and Soul. It was recorded on a very sunny winter day and you can almost feel the sunbeams shining through the music, warming you up with good vibes after a long winter in isolation. Zola is a resident DJ at Klunkerkranich, where she hosts the party “Lucid Dreams”. She co-runs the music blog and radio show Drift Ashore.

Been over a year since the lockdowns started. 
Gotta be opening up again soon.
It won't be the same.
But anything new will do.

Here's a crunchy downtempo mix I made in a short session over the weekend. It's got moments where you might wanna dance, but it's too chill to start a party. Enjoy the ride!

You're on mute

The other night I took some downtempo vibes and added some house, techno and acid herbs and this tasty little set came out. Probably about 50% up and 50% down which sounds about right in the current climate. It's a mix packed with tracks from the good people at @Amselcom. I highly recommend checking out their bandcamp https://amselcom.bandcamp.com. 

You can check out the (more) downtempo sister mix here: https://soundcloud.com/wocimusic/coming-down-or-going-up.

Today Today - Coma Community Radio with Len McPhee

Travel to Goorathuntha/Mt Tabor Station in Western Queensland to see if Holly can keep up with Keelen Mailman, a Bidjara woman managing a 70,000 hectare cattle station on country.

Episode 1: Keelen Mailman OAM

Having taken a few months off to recharge, Skwirl returns with a whirlwind of beats/grooves/and non sequitur interjections with a copious slathering of irreverence held together by shoe string and compressors. Lovingly dirtied with fresh coats of 40 year old dust is the typhoon of 70s jams that is Woodland Features Episode 12!

[also known internally as 'Skwirl (in) "Back at it Again With the White Vans" (The Mix)'"]

In honour of his new beat tape style cassette tape record "Planned Obsolescence" dropping back in June on Space Hardware, Skwirl has crafted a classic mix tape style 70s set with a cheeky bit of left-field circa Vine/TikTok era interjections woven into a hopeful plea that the boomers and the zoomers may one day come together for the good of stuff and that sort of thing. (In the meantime it's time to get down).
