Q. What inspiration did you draw upon when planning this mix, and what type of listening environment could you imagine it being easily enjoyed in? 

A. I recorded this poddy on the Wild Lady, my girlfriend’s canal boat. I find a lot of inspiration digging & plotting here - I’m surrounded by nature and the slow pace of the canal unplugs me from distractions. 

I guess it depends what side of the world you’re listening 🙃 There’s quite a bit of sunkissed house in here, so down under it could keep ya sizzlin’ nicely at a bbq or with a warm brew and biccy for us in cooler climates. 

Q. Are there any songs in the mix that are especially close to your heart, and what is it about these tracks that resonate with you so much?

A. The closing track ‘Does It Really Matter’ by Jeff Dam is a real beauty, there’s something about blissful & groovy breaks which always connects with me. Also shout out to Pistaccio, there’s one from his EP on Magic Carpet last year.

Q. What’s the latest with the Magic Carpet label you run alongside @djappleb? Any upcoming releases you’re particularly jazzed about?

A. We’re celebrating 5-years riding the carpet this year, with some lovely treats to share. The 1st instalment is a EP from b0n with some slammin’ breaks, check the clips up on our SC ⚡️

Q. I know you guys do a regular label night at the legendary Lisbon club Lux Fragil, how would you describe the energy of those nights, and what’s next in the pipeline?

A. Deeply active, big love to our crew who bring the nrg! On the 7th of Feb we’ve got Malika bringing her aromatic grooves and our homie Velvet Velour on closing business, should be a sweet one.

CLDBTS01: Velvet Velour - Tempo EP

For the next instalment of our podcast series we welcome an artist in every sense of the word. Playing a pivotal part in the UK house and techno scene, Adam Shelton has built a reputation that, at its very core, has been built on an unwavering love for music across the board. From his co-founded genre-defining One Records imprint alongside Subb-an to his central role in Birmingham’s Below party series, Adam is a well-respected figure in the world underground music community. Adam’s journey as an artist has had many highlights along the way, and aside from this legacy, he counts his work being remixed by the likes of XDB and Akufen, remixing Craig Richards under his Scumdolly alias, as well as his work with Subb-an as SAS.

Our Casts returns with a very special mix provided by serial digger, and craftsman, Mannequin.

Thad, AKA Mannequin, never fails to amaze us with the depth of his collection of warm cuts, honing in on the the finest underground cuts from the mid 90s to the early 00s. Often found supporting Our Friends, usually front right, we're happy to welcome him to the Our Friends family. 

Enjoy this mix as it twists, turns and massages your ears, whilst maintaining Mannequins signature 'warmth' as he coined himself. 

Another mix from another good mate to add to a collection we're already very proud of.
