MEZZANINE : II 𝑀𝑖𝑘𝑒 𝑀𝑖𝑑𝑛𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡

Coming in strong for mix 034 of our podcast series, we are absolutely delighted to welcome, old school Veteran, DJ Sykik.

Having cut his teeth in Hardcore, Jungle, House, Garage and Grime from as early as 1997, Sykik has established himself as an ever-present force in the underground dance music scene in the UK. Whether it be pirate radio shows around Essex, club sets around London and Essex's main circuit, or shelling down London radio stations such as Rinse and Deja Vu, DJ Sykik was there with a bag of freshly cut dubplates and the latest underground anthems of the time. More recently, you may have come across Sykik through his  limited-run dubplate series, Pirate Cutz, alongside Rossy C. 

This mix contains old underground rarities and a load of unreleased and forthcoming tracks from the likes of Harry Luda, Damn Right Productions, Tuff Jam, Perception, D Dubz, Crazy Bank, Fresh Milk and Dee Cypher. Strictly Vinyl.

A few words from Sykik: "I'd like to big up everyone in the current scene pushing the new wave of underground Garage. From the producers, labels, DJs, veterans and fallen soldiers who aren't with us anymore. Massive shout out to my good friends over at Damn Right Productions- plenty of of new music from them this year. And big up Nicky and U.K Hun? for the invite. 💙

Lost In Transition #18 w/ Mike Midnight (03/10/24)

Innocence 2025

Our 60th podcast comes from Mike Midnight.

Over the past decade, Mike has established himself as a versatile DJ, with standout downtempo EPs like Angel Hours and the collaborative trickpony with Roza Terenzi and Gem K. His productions channel early 2000s nostalgia through lush textures, emotional pulls, and playful sampling.

Recent mixes for NTS’s Braden Wells, Rinse.fm’s Baraka, and pipipi showcase his deep knowledge of club music, trip hop, and downtempo. With a delicate grip on energy and flow, Mike delivers a hazy morning-after remedy of hopeful synth pads, angelic vocal washes, and bleepy melodies.
