Welcome to Don’t Throw Stones; a mix series. 

The late, great Andrew Weatherall once equated clubbing to churchgoing, in that for some people, either might serve as a personal quest for transcendence. The comparison also derives from the idea that they both require a facilitator; people “want it ordered, and they want a middle-man,” Weatherall said. Don’t Throw Stones is a celebration of the middle-women and middle-men of nightlife: the DJs. Contributors to this mix series are located far and wide, from Bristol to Berlin, and each will distinctively capture their own take on the euphoria that is synonymous with clubgoing.

Monoke delivers the first mix of the series. Her blistering trajectory is testament to a deep-rooted understanding of what makes people tick in the club, and her contribution to Don't Throw Stones is a genuinely phenomenal hour of progressive house heaters.

I’m genuinely humbled to have Berlin-based producer Firmin deliver mix number two of the Don’t Throw Stones series. A masterclass in heavyweight rollers and majestic house euphoria, the mix also includes a couple of unreleased tasters from the Jersey-born producer’s own, unreleased catalogue. 

I’m an enormous admirer of Liam, both as a producer and a DJ. Under his alternate alias, Jägerverb, he has released a selection of intelligently composed progressive house weapons with Safer at Night, also appearing on their Boiler Room takeover.

With long-standing ties to record label Tesselate, he has since teased a smattering of Firmin releases, including 2019’s Drenched & Coppered.

Tracklist:
1. Firmin - Farolito
2. Garrett David - Work 4 Love
3. Roman Flügel - Test 1
4. Swag - Drum Hydraulics
5. So Inagawa - Sputnik (Hector Remix)
6. Einzelkind & Giuliano Lomonte - Last Drink

a wonderfully immersive dreamscape of a mix from liang makes for the fifth addition of the don’t throw stones mix series. liang has spent years honing his craft; with an international presence, he has showcased his vast record collection on the airwaves of chicago (WNUR 89.3 Streetbeat), utrecht (stranded FM) and 1020 radio (bristol). 

of the mix, liang said: “i had plants on my mind and was imaging what a day would be like in their roots. by happenstance, I stumbled upon the seminal album plantasia while digging in vienna which tied everything together. relax and enjoy the dripping dew, coming storm, and reaching towards the sun and enjoy a day as a plant.”

Mix #7 in the Don't Throw Stones series comes from Plantera, without doubt one of my favourite dj duos. Their ongoing Noods Radio residency is a deep, ethereal exploration of trancey bliss and thumpy tribal rhythms, while their take on the DTS series traverses an entirely new realm altogether. 

A celestial adventure through trip-hop, dub and funk, it's an absolute joy to get your ears around. So get involved, and stick it on your biggest speakers. It's a cracker from two of Cymru's finest.
