COLLISIONS @ Shelter, Amsterdam-181123

We met @KyleToole on the road back in the early days of The Ghost, something about his chirpy bubblin' vibe sparked an instant connection.

Little did we know, young Kyle was a hidden gem of a DJ. Bout time for a Ghostcast wethinks.

GHOSTCAST 021 - KYLE TOOLE

Of all the Berlin DJs who make a living spinning strange, I'm-not-sharing-the-tracklist kind of records, Sugar Free, originally hailing from Madrid, might be the most fun. She plays bold, colourful tracks with an air of sci-fi and sleaze, somewhere between Italo, hi-NRG, electro and house. (Her Dimensions Mix last year was one of our favourites of 2023.) She's the kind of DJ who messes with your perception of genres and tempos by how she blends tracks together, and also a DJ with a rare grasp of mixing melodies and moods—just check out the first transition of this RA Podcast for a spine-tingling example.

Sugar Free doesn't speak much publicly, and you won't find a lot about her on the internet. She prefers to let her DJing speak for itself. And her RA Podcast says a lot: proggy basslines, heart-in-mouth descents into reverb-heavy breakdowns, eerie vocals and a general feel of psychedelia and '80s decadence. It's difficult to tell what era these records are from, which is part of the charm. For a bonus point, try and pick out two just-completed Sugar Free originals, some of her first productions ever after her debut track came out on Limousine Dream in 2022.

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.

XDB - Live from Dimensions 23'

To keep the Bonanza cauldron bubbling, we are thrilled to drop the full 3 hours of XDB's glorious Sunday morning slot from Bonanza back in March. 

Anyone who has heard XDB knows that these after-hours moments are where he shines brightest, and this is on full display for Rio 005, as he weaves his way effortlessly through the deepest of deep house, ambient techno, electro, acid and tech house. The music XDB plays is always hard to put your finger on, but is consistently interwoven with a certain intangible feeling and emotion. For many this was an absolute highlight of the festival, so we couldn't be happier to share this with you as the 5th instalment of our mix series.

S.O.N.S is the mysterious man behind DIM320. French but living in Seoul for over ten years, Timothée has long been somewhat of an enigma in the scene's fast, trance-tinged wilderness, releasing a stretch of understated 12"s, using different aliases (Prophecy 47, Dj Jacuzziy..) When he's not making or spinning records, you'll find the Ring Club resident selling them behind the counter at Junction, the excellent store he owns in Seoul which has also recently begun life as a label, Junction Forest. 

Known for impeccable mixing technique and taste, both shine bright during this 80-minute dive into his bag. Strap in and get ready for his Dimensions debut this summer.

Manfredas live from Outburst at Houghton 2024.

Recorded at Houghton - Manfredas (2024)

Chez has a style that is hard to put your finger on, as Rio 017 well demonstrates. Recorded on the opening night of Bonanza, Chez kicked the terrace into action with a chuggy but cheerful selection of swampy groovers. 

Moving seamlessly from heads down tech house to breaks and EBM-ish numbers, Rio 017 is peppered with flecks of acid, swaying basslines and plenty of character. 

One to keep the summer flowing xx

There are many dangerous lizards to be found in Australia, but none are as tasty as Reptant. This multi disciplined artist is a highly prized name on the leftfield underground scene. With a duo of EP’s on Kalahari Oyster Cult, as well as standout releases on WARNING, the longstanding TRUST imprint, and a longplayer on his own LKR Records, it is easy to see why. Understandably, festival season is a very busy time for Reptant, he already has locked slots incoming for Love International, KUNE Festival, Houghton, Unaharn Festival in Thailand, as well as a slew of regular club business.
