Name: What's Good? w/ Customs (Disco Special) by Customs
Duration: 2 h 42 min 40 s
Description: The final 162 mins of a session in which it’s fair to say both the DJs - and perhaps the crowd - had been afflicted by Saturday Night Fever. Recorded live at Brilliant Corners on 02/04/22 (which was a Saturday).

A selection of my fave R'n'B tunes from recent years and a few classics. Inspired by a late nite session at Kasheme back in March.

Late Nite R'n'B [Mix/May 2022]

The final 162 mins of a session in which it’s fair to say both the DJs - and perhaps the crowd - had been afflicted by Saturday Night Fever. Recorded live at Brilliant Corners on 02/04/22 (which was a Saturday).

What's Good? w/ Customs (Disco Special)

Live recording of the first to last record played at Giant Steps on Sunday 12 February, 2023.

This sound system haunted our dreams, since they packed it up at Swan Wharf. Came with high hopes and open minds for our first Sunday at the Hackney Wick Baths. What started as a soulful afternoon selection escalated slowly into a rolling dance. A few asked since if it was recorded and - luckily - this time we got the sucker. 

If you were there, thanks for joining us and hope you enjoy the playback as much as we have. If you weren’t, hope you catch the glow of this wonderful setup. Blended with *ahem* human touch on 2 modified Technics and an ISO420 mixer, deeper into the night than we’d expected, under the shimmers of their famous mirrorball.

Next up with magic mix number seventy nine is Danny Bodega @beaton-4

An aussie now based out of London he's runs Gazebo Records which has just reissued and pressed the great Fuemana – New Urban Polynesian album to vinyl for the first time. Go check it if you haven't already.
Elsewhere he's popped up with mixes on Skylab Radio, Under The Apricot Tree and Sanctuary and now he lands here with 'a dog's breakfast' - his own words  ;)

Far from that it's a crisp concoction of cruisers perfect for a sunny evening. Enjoy :)

Back from a short break with a summer tinged mix by DJ & producer extraordinaire: Youri aka @vroge

You've probably seen it in the irregular videos I share from my own gigs, of crowds vibrating to a joyful melody. A good portion of those moments are soundtracked by music that vrøge has shared with, artists & records he's dug out of dusty record & cd crates, listened to attentively & then edited with the utmost care. His eyes & ears are so perfectly attuned to sonic gems, that cover zouk & so, so, so much more. On top of all this, he's a great producer and DJ in his own right, as you'll discover from this stunning mix.

It's been a real joy getting to know him, esp over the past year from conversations about music, dance floors & all we love about them. He's been at the top of my list of people I've wanted to invite to VIBRATIO)))NS & his take on this 3hr series is guaranteed to be your soundtrack on every beach, lake, field, roadtrip & dance floor.

Here's the mix in his own words:

"Even though I have done this a bunch of times already in my safe space at home I continuously felt an interesting combination of excitement, stress and a mild existential dread while putting the mix together. Maybe because this was the first time doing a 3-hour long mix. In the beginning, I didn’t know how and if I could fill all 3 hours but quite quickly changed into a feeling of not having enough time to share everything I wanted to share in the mix. The idea of the mix was to do what music does to people; unite. 

Music brings people from different places and different backgrounds together. Connections that are made both on and off the dance floor simply through music. I tried to unite a variety of music styles from different places from all over the world. I picked some of my personal favourites that all come with a memory of a connection with someone that I have made myself. Making this a little thankful mix towards that power of music and to all those people that I have made a connection with because of it.
