The New York-based vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and DJ touches on the array of genres that make up his musical genetics on this shapeshifting and funk-heavy Crack Mix. 

“This mix was done in one live take in my studio, all to show what you might hear from me on any given set,” Toribio tells us. “This mix, just like when I DJ live, starts from a more chill point and builds up to a faster, harder vibe before ending with uplifting music.”

“My latest mix for Deep South takes you into a wormhole of acid, groove, and jazz. Opening with my signature intergalactic minimal sound, it then traverses into heady moods and peak-time energies, before settling back in with the familiar. This mix opens a portal into a dance floor on the other side of the universe, where neo-tribal rhythms rattle through wriggling bodies. Grab a drink with the machine elves and see you on the other side!

Sending lots of gratitude to Vicki Powell and the entire Deep South crew for inviting me to contribute to this iconic mix series.”

More about Chuck:

San Francisco transplant by-way of Los Angeles, Chuck Gunn is a co-founder and resident of QAOTIQ, a queer rave based in California's Bay Area that aims to uplift and champion BIPOC/Trans artists. His fresh and spacey take on house and techno is shaped by the acid, dub and microhouse movements that grew out of 90's minimal techno. Chuck moves through various textures, from rugged terrain, spaced out atmospheres, dub rhythms, all balled up in a bounce & grace that smacks the dance floor again and again, relentless you might say. For many this kind of built pressure can take decades in the DJ booth to develop. Gunn's range and skill can hold down any underground dance floor and it's obvious that we're not the only ones that have taken notice as Chuck plays up and down the West Coast at clubs & festivals alike.

Club Moment with SPRKLBB @ The Lot Radio 03-26-2023

Kandylion has a sound that is deeply rooted in the years she has spent in the NYC queer scene. Infusing house groves with elements of disco, soul, rnb, acid and breaks, she seeks to provide an uplifting and irresistible dance floor experience that is accessible to all.

JC (SPRFRK) Brooklyn, NY via Miami, FL, A dance floor diva-turned-DJ with a strong presence in the Brooklyn underground queer scene. He’s held a residency at Happyfun Hideaway with his formerly know “Sick’ning Fridays” happy hour since 2020. Playing parties like Harder, Scandalo NYC, Queer Disorganization, Bottle Service, Sole Rehab and he recently opened for Hercules & Love Affair. He hopes to continue collaborating and growing with DJs and artists from all over and bring his extra spicy and freaky flavor with his diverse and eclectic sound to many more dance floors in NYC and around the world.

Notes on the Mix ///

"It was a really fun process putting this together with JC and finding a cohesive sound between our two musical tastes, which are very similar! I love the extra gay moments we came up with. I also love how the structure of this mix mimics what I consider to be an ideal dance floor experience: a warmup with lots of percussive groove; a slow build in energy with lots of soul and classic house styles that locks you in through to the peak; and a lush melodic wind down that ends on an optimistic note :)

If you know JC/SPRFRK, then you know he is a person who brings a special energy to a room (and to the decks!) Over the time I’ve known him, I’ve watched him grow and refine his sound as a dj and I love the chemistry that we’ve developed playing together, so I knew he was absolutely the right choice for this b2b. I’m so glad to have him both as a friend and a musical cohort and look forward to many more dance floor moments together!" -Kandylion

"I’m very honored to be part of this XOXA B2B mix with KANDYLION. Not only has she become a great friend of mine in the scene, but the more we get to know each other, the more in sync we become musically. Playing with KANDYLION has been such a fun adventure and this mix is a reflection of what fun we have playing together. Hope to continue this journey with her and reach many dance-floors with our energizing sound!" -SPRFRK


Notes on XOXA ///

“XOXA has been a part of my life since 2018 and the memories will last a lifetime! It’s been a beautiful ride as well as an important source for connection and development for me as part of a vibrant network of queer artists in nightlife. Here’s to six more years!" -Kandylion

"XOXA has been a great part and major supporter of my DJ career. They make a great impact in the queer nightlife scene in NYC with their great parties and iconic bookings. If you’re ever at a XOXA party, I can guarantee you’ll be dancing all night!" -SPRFRK
