Our dear friend Davide D’Amico steps up with a bag full of rare gems and dancefloor anthems, offering us a glimpse into his world through this mix. It’s a snapshot of what he's been vibing to lately, a testament to his eclectic taste and unique touch.
As one of the core residents at Basic Club, Davide has carved a distinctive path for himself, crafting a sound that effortlessly flows between house, techno, disco, jazz-funk, and rare groove. Inspired by the many artists he's had the privilege of sharing the stage with, Davide is an avid digger, always on the lookout for those hidden treasures that ignite the dance floor. His sets are raw, full of energy, and unapologetically authentic, reflecting his deep, unwavering passion for music in its purest form.

LÉMAN MIX 22 - DAVIDE D'AMICO

New episode of Mellow Madness and I’m honored to welcome Sean P for the second part of the show with a very special Japanese fusion selection!

London-based DJ, sound engineer, and former record dealer at the iconic Music & Video Exchange, Sean P is also a renowned disco and dance music connoisseur. He’s behind the curation of numerous killer compilations on labels like Z Records, BBE, and Claremont 56 — including Under The Influence, Soul of Disco, and Supafunkanova — and has collaborated with Backatcha (big up!) and many other great labels through remixing, editing, remastering, and mixing tracks.
An avid vinyl collector and deeply respected DJ (one of the best to me), Sean P’s selections are always deep, and sharp — spanning jazz funk, soul, disco, and everything in between.
We had the pleasure of inviting him to Easter Sounds Festival in Paris back in 2018 — and what a party that was!

The first hour of the show is dedicated to my dear friend and brother Lotfi, who left us just a few days ago. Expect an all-killer-no-filler selection to celebrate love and life — just like he did. A mix of deep and joyful tracks that reflect his beautiful soul, featuring Roy Ayers, Yambu, Luther Vandross, Brainstorm, Davina, Peven Everett, and many more.

Vibe Operator - Llupe & Valentin - 09 May 2025

With Sam Don in France, Marco the genius behind MLiR stepped up for a full takeover of Free Association.  But rather than do the usual 2-hours, in a first for FA, he went above and beyond, delivering 4 hours of sonic delights! 

Cut to only 2 hours when it went out live on radio, this is the full fat version with all four delectable hours!

LYL RADIO - Mellow Madness w/ Clémentine 01.07.25

Sebastian Grätz, based in Hamburg, Germany, and known professionally as Basso, is the man behind Growing Bin Records.
Growing Bin was set up in 2007 as a music blog before evolving into an online record store in 2012, with the offshoot micro-label Growing Bin Records launching the following year. The blog initially existed to catalogue Basso's broad musical tastes, today Growing Bin is very much in the business of selling records; From the ultra-rare and special interests to generally curious finds.

A core appeal of Growing Bin is that the material is handpicked according to, and solely for one man's esoteric tastes. There is no chasing of trends; If Basso likes it, he'll sell it. Another of the shop's unique traits is its copywriting; Growing Bin's website is a marvel with musical categories including Cocktails By The Pool, Cheap Magic and Dancing For Mental Health, breaking down into subcategories such as Embarrassing Mindblowingness, Never Leave The Bag and many more.

Anyway, over to the mix. As expected, Basso has delivered a wonderfully eclectic selection of records. 
We'd like to mention a few of his inclusions; 'La Bimini' by Spunk, a breezy P-funk monster if ever there was one, off their 1981 LP Tighten It Up, tight as f**k indeed! Remaining in Jazz-funk territory, Underground Canopy & Paloma Paloma's deep and soulful 'Même Heure Même Endroit', B-side of a 7" single from 2023, is just sublime. The HaHa Sounds Collective version of Marker Starling's 'Silk Rock', as championed by Gilles Peterson on his Worldwide FM radio show, is an absolutely stellar piece of music and arguably one of the strongest releases of 2020. Taken from her 1976 LP Più, Ornella Vanoni's moody 'Tu Chi Sei?' (underscored by a beat suspiciously reminiscent of a certain Paul Simon record) is another timeless inclusion here. 
A big thanks to Basso for taking the time to record this fantastic mix for the series.
