nice mixes

Animix is back! I'm sooooo happy to be returning to the series with this new mix by local talent Hannah D (@hld). Brisbane's finest import, and curator of @thespacebetweenus, has recently taken the Melbourne scene by storm with her fun, groovy style & flawless skill. This mix is total euphoria, which I think really reflects the mood of the Melbourne scene at the moment in a (sort of) post-covid world.

Thanks again for this one Hannah! Sending love to everyone in the Animalia community.

My set for @coven666's Transmission, 13.06.21. It's big and loud at some points, chugging and rolling in others, a bit 90s, a bit Euro, and quite silly. Also, please excuse the ending. I just slammed on Baby D. 

Also much love to the Transmission crew. They do incredible things. Enjoy! x

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:
I think the most important thing is firstly finding your community. Find the people and music that inspire you. If you can't find people and spaces that make you feel comfortable and safe - keep looking, as they are out there somewhere. Once you find it, invest in your scene - if you love and nurture it, it can give back to you. Then, give back some more... Create a symbiotic relationship. Ask questions of the people you look up to, even if the questions seem silly. It's great to have a goal but don't forget to enjoy the process. Practice heaps! Be kind to yourself as you learn. There will be setbacks and times that will make you want to give up completely - don't give up! These setbacks will offer so much room for growth and learning. Listen and take advice on board but then go your own way. Stay true to what feels natural to you. It's hard not to compare yourself to others, especially in the era of social media. I find it can be empowering to accept that those thoughts are there, and try and not give them too much air time. Don't listen to people who try to make you feel shame for taking yourself seriously. There is no shame in taking your art seriously. You're never too old to start!!! Learning about genres can be cool but don't stress about them. Last, but not least... Play tracks you love, and have fun :)

JACK Mixtape for KALTBLUT Magazine

Adam Pits' propulsive productions and expansive DJ sets are a firm favourite here at Dimensions HQ and we're delighted to welcome him to the series. Unrestricted by genre or mood, Adam takes us on an intergalactic voyage with mix 258 – this one packs a serious punch.

DIM258 - Adam Pits

As part of the current wave of Aussie producers that are making a name for themselves with their contemporary take on 90’s-influenced prog house and trance-y goodness, Solar Suite is responsible for delivering some serious tunes in recent times. Off the back of his recent EP for On Rotation, we got in touch with our Aussie mate to talk about his latest record, upcoming Europe tour and forthcoming EP on Haŵs, and he’s graced us with 60 minutes of high-paced dance floor blends, paying homage to those hazy 6am dance floor moments.

The Salon Velour Mix

This mix is made in the aftermath of WHOLE festival and on the eave of CSD weekend. It's kinda got a marching vibe to it, but mostly it's just hard and fast music cos I'm still on a high (apologies for any slip ups hehe). Listen to it before or after going on the streets. Dedicated to all my friends. 

@bentdj is a vinyl DJ and selector blending UK rave nostalgia, queer euphoria, and big feels behind the decks. Current resident @salon_velour.

Recorded live on Saturday, March 31, 2018.
