Daisychain 196 - Shanti Celeste

London DJ and producer Amaliah has been gathering momentum for some time now thanks to her buoyant selections and infectiously positive energy.

Amaliah’s Crack Mix is typical of her approach in the dance: a zesty, club-centric set loaded with rolling tech house, eyes-down stompers and stacks of kinetic energy.

PE Radio DJ Fart In The Club, Ibu 600 & D. Tiffany

"The main inspiration for this mix came after a string of sunset to sunrise euphoric and heartfelt dancefloor moments at this years’ Love International festival in Croatia. I was lucky enough to go with my partner and some dear friends, one of whom (Pete) started a WhatsApp group to link all the queer people in attendance at the festival together overe the course of the week. Pete introduced and united some pretty special people, and the new friends we made quickly became to feel like old friends, feeling a love and sense of belonging like we’d already known each other for a lifetime.

This mix has a number of tracks that have similar energies to the feelings we experienced during the festival - calm yet uplifting to dance near the ocean in the heat of the day, vocals that expel you back into reality, and a general overarching feeling of love and celebration for all the people we are yet to and have already created life changing relationships with, and nostalgic for the memories we are still creating."

A familiar and prominent figure in Naarm dance and queer scene, @dawsdj has recently relocated to the UK and is proceeding to rip it up all over the EU just like we expected her to - prolifically. 

We catch up with her before she heads offon tour in Canada. Full link to interview here >> https://www.hueandsaturation.net/blog/2022/daws <<<

Hue & Saturation Mix #038: DAWS

As @sleepd, childhood friends Maryos Syawish and Corey Kikos have greatly helped shape Melbourne's underground scene over the last decade. Between them, they have Iraqi and Maltese heritage and put out music on the likes of Incienso, Play On and Cocktail d'Amore Music as well as their own blog/party/label Butter Sessions. Like their expressive live show, it explores "the rave unconscious" so think everything from dreamy pads to driving rhythms, gritty electro to cosmic techno. 

This week's podcast is a superb showcase of their style: a mix that is constantly on the move, building momentum as rhythms go from elastic and bouncy to more driving and sleek. Percussion is perfectly sprinkled in to give extra texture, while nebulous synths add the colour as the pressure builds and builds. This is physical, psychedelic, emotional, trance-inducing electronic music that follows the familiar arc of a well-executed mix but in all new and unfamiliar ways.
