Larry D is in the low light spotlight for Shell Tape 87 and this edition is all steam, smoke, bass and bounce. Straight down the line 4x4 techno takes a backseat, leaving room for Latin leaning polyrhythms, Afro influences and wobbly bass lines as we take a left turn for “Left-field y Latino”.

That left turn leads right to a heaving dance floor driven by ear worm vocal loops, South American melodies and the undeniable influence of contemporary Afro-Caribbean stylings, both underground and not so underground. The tunes made in the mix might be made by computers but the beats are anything but robotic, swinging, bouncing and gasping with a spectacular sweaty and off kilter energy.

Images of neon flashes on wet concrete, blurred feet and glistening skin come to mind when consuming Shell Tape 87 - it’s easy to get lost in the rumble tumble world Larry presents to us. “Left-field y Latino” is made for dancers so step out and get stuck in!

Shell Tape 87 - Larry D - "Left-field y Latino"

Two hours of burning churners, bleepy tech, brainy prog and emotionally charged chuggers inspired by a spontaneous and intuitive b2b chemistry in the depths of long weekend dancing.

The first hour welcomes interesting ear worms and celestial sounds for cerebral soothing, before pushing you into harder hitting acid lines and deep burning bumpers til close. 

B0rk foregoes expectation with unrelenting critical selections, unfeigned creative purity and fierce conceptual understanding - an honour to be mixing alongside both best mate and the artistically profound.

Flip The Lid w/ Vertigo - 03.01.25

We’re stoked to share a fresh 2-hour Vertigo b3b mix, a deep dive into some of our favourite sounds, both new and old, that we've been grooving to over the past year.

Expect an immersive blend of ethereal minimal and wobbly, techy steppers. Perfect for a moody winter’s day or a smoke-filled dancefloor in the early hours.

Big shout out to @ptmc303 for mastering this one 🖤

experimental sanctuary 031 w/ Vertigo

The sun is out. It's winter, but it's not quite cold yet. Is it actually winter? The sounds of Shell Tape 15 say no, delivered by the ever-sunny Larry D. 

Mixed largely with vinyl and put together with love, care and attention, this week's mix sees us turn towards the brighter side of dance music. Afro-Caribbean ditties mingle with Latin influences and sounds, whirling, twirling and step-ball-changing to a irresistible organic pulse.

Enjoyed best after knocking off early and pouring yourself an easy-going glass of Don Julio (or equivalent beverage), Tape 15 takes us out of the warehouse and into the sun, a fittingly feel good soundtrack for the end of the week. Step out of your metaphorical cave and put your hands in the air, Larry D's got this one on lock.
