We’re delighted to welcome XDB to the series this week. A little over 2hrs long, this is a long-form insight into the DJ & producer's expansive record collection. The mix kicks-off with slow building house, subtly moving through to electro and deep techno, ending with a handful of the classics, all weaved together in a seemingly effortless style that Kosta has become synonymous with. Catch the master in action at Dimensions thus summer, playing alongside the Freerotation crew ⚡️

This week, we’re happy to share XDB's stunning set from Dimensions ’23. Recorded live from Freerotation’s takeover of the Cosmos last summer, which set the stage perfectly for Steevio's live set afterwards.

Deep, refined and classy selections throughout, something we've come to expect and love about Kosta’s sets.

Under-the-radar Japanese selector, Yuta Suzuki graces us with his first recording in a couple of years. Having built a reputation for having his ear very close to the ground in the endless hunt for interesting, obscure music, this mix speaks to a man who's done exactly that. 

Put together in a remarkably patient way, it's a mature, eclectic collection of underground tracks that possess a certain character, with a slightly off-kilter thread running through.

Ask Berlin's network of revered deep diggers who their favourite "DJ's DJ" is, and there's a strong chance you'll hear one name immediately pop up: KRN.

Phil Kearney, AKA KRN, is one of those rare types who has built a reputation away from the limelight. Formerly a resident at The Ghost's Hoppetosse party as well as a Get Perlonized devotee (plus, full disclosure, reviewing events and working at RA in the mid-2010s), he's well-versed in both wiggle and waft. The hubbub around KRN can be put down to the fastidiousness of his approach: he unearths rare gems from the roots of the underground, before mixing it up with a deft hand.

Kearney's RA Podcast, sweetly subtitled "Dadhouse," is an ode to his partner and newborn, as well as a window into his personal palette. He starts in serene IDM territory, before shifting into playful grooves and tactile house oddities. Good lucking ID'ing many of the tunes—we asked for a tracklist but, deep down, already knew the answer. We know this, too: one listen and you'll be hooked.

Our next podcast comes from Amsterdam local, Lo. Lo is one of the founding members of Bella Tazza and has been slowly building his reputation as one of the cities best young diggers for the last few years. His style is eclectic, vibrant and in many ways obscure. Drifting through the abstract realms of electro and minimalistic techno, this latest offering demonstrates the artists ability to unearth forgotten gems and intertwine them with futuristic modern cuts. A trip we most enjoyed. We’re sure you will too!

A New Era

Defining the essence of the true deep sound within the house scene is very difficult due to the infinite number of branches and paths that music gives us when we bring out the creativity within us. We all probably have a different idea of ​​the true meaning of this style that began in Chicago relatively recently and that changed our lives forever and gave us masterpieces like the one we present this week through 2phonic Recordings.
Purpose EP by Sound Minds Muzik will transport us to a different world starting with the delicious "Bassment", a song where silky melodies flow between our future and our past to dance with our eyes closed.
"Cheese Honey" slides through pampered and cared-for harmonies as if it were a spider web so that the percussions merge with the chords perfectly, a solid rhythm telling a story based on carefreeness and inner relaxation.
To finish, SMM shoots us with the best of his arrows in this EP, without a doubt one of those tracks that you will always take with you to open your set with voices and sound elements from another dimension.
