Special vinyl selection • Guest mixtape #88 by @samruffillo (@toytonics)

Sam Ruffillo is currently working on his debut album (out next year on toy tonics) and is touring Australia Bali and New Zealand

Sam Ruffillo is the Italian DJ and producer making waves as the disco heartbeat of Toy Tonics, and he's already commanding attention with just three EPs under his belt. Heavy-hitters like Gerd Janson, The Blessed Madonna, Palms Trax, DJ Tennis, and Seth Troxler are all backing his sound—making it clear that Sam is more than just a rising star. His tracks “Danza Organica” and “Perfetta Cosi” quickly became the go-to anthems for 2023 summer sets, cementing his place at the forefront of the scene.
But Sam's story goes beyond just buzz. His latest EP “Italianissimo 2” features a track that's taken over Italian pop radio playlists and is gaining serious traction in the underground club scene worldwide. A product of Sicily with roots in New York, his music is pure Mediterranean disco and funk house, laced with Italian vocals and an energy that takes you straight to the dancefloor. It's all about that vibe—Italian vocals, vintage disco, and timeless funk, spiced up with a 90s house edge that hits like a freight train.
Sam’s sets? Unpredictable, electrifying, and a celebration of everything he loves: it’s that "authentically Italian" sound—blending rare 80s disco edits, lush funk, and 90s house bangers that send crowds into a frenzy. From Milan to Berlin, Paris to Barcelona, London to Amsterdam, Sam’s been lighting up the best clubs across Europe, bringing his high-energy sets that are as unpredictable as they are unforgettable.

Avsluta (Lucie Stepankova) moves with quiet precision, tracing the lines between ambient stillness and rhythmic motion. As a London-based sound artist, DJ, live performer, and curator, she explores the spaces where sound lingers and transforms.

Her set at Mostra Festival 2023 left a lasting impression. A seamless journey through moods and tempos, carried with effortless elegance. It felt only right to invite her to Unrush, and now here we are finally.

For this mix, Lucie dives into deeper ambient landscapes, showing the same thoughtful sensitivity that shapes her work. Over the past decade, Lucie has refined her musical voice behind the counter at Phonica Records, guiding London’s ambient and downtempo seekers most Saturdays, building connections, sharing music, and fostering community along the way.

She’s the founder of Introspective Electronics, a platform for radio shows, guest mixes, and listening events. Together with producer and DJ Alicia, she also curates Terra Obscura, an intimate club night series devoted to slower, introspective sounds.

This DJ set holds that same spirit: a quiet invitation to slow down and listen...

095 - Unrushed by Avsluta

Brokenchord's Ernestas is back with another show, presenting one hour of generous folk, indie and kosmische deviations, filled with tracks selected by the rest of the band's members. In his own words: This one is way different than last, I asked my bandmates to pick a few tracks each and this one is more about stuff I've been currently listening to, also decided to make it here on a road while drinking Italian coffee in the mountains, so it's messy in a good way.

Today's guest mix arrives as the perfect soundtrack to these scorching summer days that seem to stretch on endlessly, capturing the vibrant energy and laid-back vibe of the season. We welcome Vakula, a leading figure in the Ukrainian electronic music scene.

The journey began in 1998, behind the decks of a local radio station, where Vakula played drum & bass and trip-hop sets for a handful of night listeners. By 2004, he was already diving into the deep waters of dub techno, drawn not by fashion, but by a persistent inner frequency.
Soon after, Vakula moved to the capital — a city now at war — where he spent eleven formative years. The original plan was simple: earn enough money to reach a Buddhist monastery in Tibet. But life, borders, and timing had other ideas. Instead, he stayed and followed sound.
Over the years, Vakula became part of the underground scene, eventually becoming a resident at iconic clubs such as Propaganda and Zeppelin, while also playing in many of the legendary venues of that era. By 2008, music had turned into a passport, taking him across continents to places where electronic sound truly thrived.
Genre was never a boundary. Jazz, rock, hip-hop, ambient, house, techno, drum & bass — everything served the same purpose: to explore, to feel, to connect. In 2011, he returned to his small hometown and built an analog studio, carving out space to listen more deeply.
Over time, the surface of the global scene began to feel thinner, less sacred. In 2020, he stepped back from performance and immersed himself in a three-year exploration of shamanic practices — not for spectacle, but for personal insight. This inner work changed his relationship with sound, and opened up new levels of depth, stillness, and presence in his music.
By 2025, Vakula let go of the path of the spirits, realizing that some stories are not his to walk. Vakula returned, not to where he started, but to a clearer understanding of his role: to keep listening, to keep creating, and to stay honest in sound.
Through it all, Vakula remains one of the early pioneers and enduring voices in the Ukrainian electronic scene — not the mainstream one, but a world of his own: where forest replaces the city center, where meadows stand in for mindless entertainment, and where trees are steadier than fleeting friendships. His connection to Ukraine has never been about slogans. It’s a quiet, unwavering love — for the land, for the people who still feel, and for his hometown of Konotop, which lives in every frequency he shapes.

Tracklist:
1. Vakula - Thaw of the Silent Peak
2. Jonn Serrie - The Observation Deck
3. Ariel Kalma - Flute Meditation
4. Vakula - Stellar Echoes
5. Steve Roach - The Ancient’ Way
6. Vakula - True Self
7. Jonn Serrie - Along The Way
8. Vakula - Ananta Nada

Bon Entendeur, "Ensemble", Sy, Summer 2017

It was a stunning Sunday in June. We hosted The Dunes of Babylon for the first time. Surrounded by our family crowd. Mesmerised by music. It was that Sunday that I got held up by this young artist from Frankfurt; Veturanto. 

He handed a CD. "A gift," he said, "for all that you are creating." The gesture was incredible, but I remembered thinking how am I going to play this track? I don't have a CD player anymore. 

As the universe works in magical ways we end up at a houseparty after the show. The music box dies, and all there is left was a CD player.....

We fell in love with his music. Instantly. And we know that we will work together a lot in the future.

For now dream away by this exclusive mix for our friends at Pulse Radio. An interesting compilation of tracks that will take you on an incredible journey this Monday.

Let yourself go in this music. And join us at our next event.
