NTS Apron Show Benedek & Yuka Mizuhara Takeover 7th Sep 2022

Picture this. It was the hottest day of the year & the mid afternoon sun was high in the sky.
Many people had been up all night, some were just arriving in the fields in Norfolk.

The Old Gramophone tent was one of the few stages with some refuge from the sun so I played super chill, trippy & Dreamy with lots of Reggae, slow Disco & downtempo dance. There are also lots of unreleased edits & version excursions which you won’t hear anywhere else.

I mourn the fact that there are no longer chill-out rooms in the clubs so this was a chance to play some music that is good to lollygag and trip out to or dance slowly if the desire takes you. 
I brought it up gradually because I don’t have  much chill out music on my stick cos there are no chill out rooms in clubs these days. And yes I am mostly Nick The Stick these days... 

I picked it up a bit more during the 3rd hour as Sassy J was up next so wanted to give her the best chance possible of getting a dance floor happening (was still real hot though).
I played a fun party set on the Thursday night but sadly the recording of that was corrupted.

Anyway I hope you enjoy.

P.S. the photo is in taken in Brighton while I am wearing my favourite Houghton top

This month’s Carhartt WIP Radio show welcomes the Paris-born, Tokyo-raised DJ, producer, label founder, and sound designer @alexfromtokyo.

Living in Japan for 25 years during the 80s and 90s, he had an ear to the ground for Tokyo’s thriving electronic and dance music scenes. He worked as a DJ, promoter, translator, and coordinator between Japan and the rest of the world, before launching his own label in 2002, titled world famous.

M August & J Castillo "Coast 2 Coast"

This month’s Carhartt WIP Radio show is hosted by the Kaifeng-born, London-based composer, sound artist, and DJ @yu_su.

Since releasing her debut EP Preparation for Departure in 2018, the artist has emerged as one of the most versatile producers in electronic music, whether it’s creating meditative, downtempo sounds and rich, jazz-inspired textures, or blending echoes of Chinese classical with mid-tempo house.

In 2021, Su co-founded the label @bie-records, launching it with her debut album Yellow River Blue, which was recorded during a winter tour of mainland China, and is filled with glimmering synths, dubbed-out bass, and moments of 90s trip-hop.

The mix that Yu Su created for this month’s show radiates with the same vivid energy as her previous projects, telling “a story of the vast musical world” she inhabits. Listen to the mix and read an accompanying interview at www.carhartt-wip.com/journal/music.

GALA Warm Up Mix – Julion De'Angelo

For me personally this one is about spiritual growth and transformation. Breaking negative cycles, releasing old emotional baggage and leading to greater awareness and freedom.

This track is again built in combination of acoustic recordings, electronic soundscapes, deep bass lines and dance beats. In a moderately fast tempo, 115 bpm.

Karmic Shift

Here is the recording of my 2 hours warm up for Theo Parrish a few weeks back in Paris, at the Free Your Funk party held at La Bellevilloise venue on a beautiful sunday evening.

Big up to JAW FAMILY & FREE YOUR FUNK for putting this night together ! And thanks to all my friends & music lovers who came early to sweat on the dancefloor!
