We have been big fans of this talented gentleman for several years, been never had the opportunity to connect until Art With Me festival in Miami where our brothers, Wild Dark, made an introduction. Laughter and hilarity ensued -- we clicked like old friends and invited him to join the hallowed ranks of the Bespoke Radio series.

We thrilled to present this gorgeous, fresh mix the one and only, Spaniol. <3

Manchmal tragen Mixtapes die uns erreichen, bereits einen Namen. Dieses hier hiess „ginger & peppermint“.
Zwei Zutaten, die auf den ersten Blick zu einem gemütlichen Tee-Kränzchen passen.
Aber ich erinnere mich, dass ich auch mal an einem ziemlich scharfen und belebenden Kaugummi mit genau diesen zwei Zutaten knabberte.
Und genau das hat uns Knabber Hans hier mit an die Party gebracht!
Grosse, knallig leuchtende, kugelrunde Kaugummis, eingewickelt in fetten Bässen, gefüllt mit saftigen Percussions-Sets.
So dass uns das Wasser nur so in den Ohren zusammen läuft!
Und jetzt schön brav schmatzend einfach im Takt weiter kauen…
und kauen...

Green Fingers Collective Presents Paboona Selections

Gratitude. Belonging. Collaboration. Flow state. Scintillating crowd energy. Much mud. Moist air. Fire and Water. Masculine and Feminine.

These are a few words that come to mind when I think back to my Sunday Mass set at Swing Fling, from 2-4pm on the last day of Kiwiburn 2023.

Many thanks to all the pious and devout dancers who brought their palpable energy to a very special rendition of the Sunday Mass, as well as all the nuns at Swing Fling serving pancakes, mimosas and/or spanks to those who confessed their transgressions on (or off) the paddock. Gary Boomshanker certainly got excited, letting off a burst of flames with every spank.

It turns out that sleep deprivation, a splitting headache and the sweltering heat inside Swing Fling's dome on a sunny afternoon after days of rain make a great recipe for entering flow state while DJing! I've had the best time feeding off the energy, dance moves and smiles from the crowd, playing one of my most enjoyable sets in a long time. Originally I was only supposed to play an hour but when the next DJ didn't show up I was actually stoked that I could continue tapping into flow state and weaving more songs. I ended on one song that I chose specifically as a way of showing my gratitude to Swing Fling and the larger burn community: Belong by Viken Arman. There is something truly tangible about the sense of belonging I feel with the radiant humans of Swing Fling, both at my first burn and this time, being actually part of the camp.

I got even more emotional when my friend Dani from Wānaka started drumming along to my tunes - something that I'd always dreamed of someone doing during a set. Next time we should try and get the drumming amplified and recorded, too!

In closing, I'd like to share a massive insight I had at this burn: the music I like to play (and dance to) is usually more feminine than masculine, which sustains the positive valence of a dancefloor and of the dancers, and keeps spirits uplifted. This may sound straightforward, but there's something in the simple clarity I gleaned from this that is very wholesome and satisfying.

Kia ora!

WUMANAS take over Ruigoord Church x  Landjuweel 2023. 
In astonishing collaboration with performances, artists and musician. 

'In Ruigoord's old church, a sight to behold,
Women gather, their spirits unfold.
Dancing, wild and free,
In sweet harmony,
To music's embrace, their empowerment,
- bold, fierce and fearlessly.’

On this sequel to 2024's "The Next Wave - EP" we embark on a magical journey to new worlds, realms, and dimensions. From melodic deep house to tropical pumped-up jams, and a fusion of sounds you can only experience from a natewavmusic album; "THE NEXT WAVE 2: SHANGRI-LA" is the perfect vibe to escape your current reality & enter a euphoric, once un-imaginable place.

I'm reading a fantastic book at the moment entitled, "Cosmic Serpent" by Jeremy Narby.  In it, is the story of a man that leads the reader through unexplored and uncharted jungles of anthropological studies, biology and the limits of rational thought.  
This collection of musical pieces have served as a soundtrack of sorts, while immersed in the exploration of what is possible beyond what we think we know.
My hope is that the listener is able to time travel with the set, weaving in and out of primal, calm and ritualistic emotional states.

As always, thank you very much for lending me your ears.

HABITAS ROAD | 2

This Saturday, September 29, we present The Brooklyn Mirage 2018 closing event, The Cityfox Experience: Transcend, a three-stage festival with 8 live acts and 10 DJs, friends and favorites both old and new, playing the highest of quality house and techno (bit.ly/Cityfox929).

The Romanian born, Berlin-based, Sandrino has crafted this delightful Foxcast as we countdown.

Driven by his passion for house music in all forms, Sandrino is most drawn to its deeper and melodic slants. In 2010, he met and formed a self-named duo with Frankey, producing tracks that landed on Innervisions and Kompakt, before they launched their own imprint, Sum Over Histories. He first played for Cityfox in 2016, immediately becoming a favorite, and gracing our decks each year since.

In this Foxcast, Sandrino adeptly builds the energy towards the finale (no pun intended), kicking off the mix with spacey, almost ambient atmospheres and subdued percussions but steadily working its way up. The subtle but consistent rhythms and synths intertwine, until we eventually wonder when the journey ensnared to a trancelike state of introspection. Melodies pair with thick harmonies giving way to raw, stripped-down dance floor-centric tracks, peaking in the latter half with a surge of energy, beautifully demonstrating Sandrino’s range in a mere 60 minutes, before closing out with a splash of electropop - the things dreams are made of.

Sandrino’s set is not to be missed, as his Foxcast clearly indicates. Join us for our last dance in our summer home.
