"For Juneteenth I wanted to make the mix as black as possible. I know this is technically a day of celebration for African-Americans but any people whose ancestors were a part of the transatlantic slave trade can see how much this day means to many. So I chose to include black music globally. This mix is very me as I love genre-switching, but the theme of highlighting black artists and producers is very present. The power of sound in a strange land when our enslaved ancestors were tragically and violently stolen from their homes was undeniably a survival tactic and very therapeutic. I could even feel the change in my mood before and after recording." - @mistervacation

"All my mixes are done using vinyl made live (no Ableton). This mix is no exception. Also, it’s a one-take mix so listeners are getting an honest DJ set. All house. All tracks that I love." @jaydagmusic

"I wanted to make a mix that is most representative of what I've been playing as club sets over the years but using new tracks. I usually tend to put together really different things when I sit at home and work on music because I'm really affected by my direct surroundings and this applies to my own productions as well that you can hear towards the end of the mix. Some parts are quite playful but overall I feel like it paints the right picture" - @mobilegirl

"I couldn’t be more proud and excited to say this mix exclusively features black trans femmes & trans femmes of color. The idea came to me while I was debating how I could tell the story of my transition and everything that has lead me up to this point—then it dawned on me that only my sisters would understand, only my sisters could help me communicate and that they are what has lead me here. It was beyond special to learn about my beautiful talented sisters from all over the world, to hear about each of their hardships while listening to the incredible work they made in spite of them, thinking about how we are all connected and what it meant to be literally connecting us through compiling this mix. It was a really emotional and illuminating full-circle process for me and I am so happy to share this with all the black trans femmes & trans femmes in the world and for them to have something to remind them that their dreams are very possible, I wanna give them everything I didn’t have. As I prepare for surgery and for what it means to finally be myself, to meet myself for the first time, I couldn’t imagine a better soundtrack to carry me through it. " - @br0nz3_g0dd3ss

"It’s pretty raw and ‘hype’ if you ask me! Think I have been inspired lately by a bunch of new open-minded people I’ve met and going through a period of sexual discovery slash liberation. It’s quite some story that I won’t repeat here, but a couple of friends were engaged in some high jinx in the room whilst I was recording this and I think it really fed the energy of the mix!

Unfortunately there is a bit of mains hum in this take but I decided the energy was worth scaring off some audiophiles for hehe" - @spfdj

"The mix is quite intense, even for my taste. When I put it all together I wanted to maybe rerecord it so it's super clean and all, but one of my 2019 resolutions is to learn to let some things go, do best and try super hard of course but not to obsess over being perfect.
The mix is definitely straight right to it kinda vibe. It contains tracks in many of my fave electronic music styles (ebm, techno, electro, trance, rave etc) including many released and unreleased tracks by my talented friends, that I'm super grateful for. The mix was recorded using my wifey's SPFDJ home dj setup - 2 decks, 2 cdjs." - @vitiosus

"This mix is 100% dedicated to the spiral. It’s like having a meltdown but keeping your composure. I tried to keep the same BPM (which I rarely do) and energy : lots of trancey, dreamy synth mixed with hard hitting techno, logobi and kuduro. A balance between intricate and hypnotic afro-rhythm and other things. 

It’s always an experience recording a club mix outside of a club because my DJ Sets are super informed by my perception of the crowd, the dancing, the generosity, the general atmosphere but now I’m alone in front of my CDJ’s and my own demons" - @crystallmess

"Every time i play music without a dancing crowd in front of me i embrace the chance to include tunes which i hardly get to play in clubs or festivals.

"I’ve started to embrace some of the things I felt were problems to me earlier on in my DJ life, lately—e.g. how messy, non-linear and confusing my DJ “flow” is, often times things end up sounding like a messy emotional soup. This is no different. I’ve been feeling pretty contemplative lately, it’s funny how the ending of an arbitrary amount of time will do this to you. This year marks a decade of me being involved in electronic music and more than half a decade that I’ve been working in social work. I’ve changed a lot over this time period but a few things have remained constant. Both in my work (talking to people who are suicidal) and in myself, one of my biggest takeaways this decade is human being’s remarkable capacity to heal themselves. Music was a huge part of this process for me, so I wanted to put together a mix that reflects this. The mix contains a lot of tracks that remind me of specific times, feelings and people this past 10 years. As Russell EL Butler says, “I play healing music because I need to be healed”." - @ccl-tuf

"I guess this mix is quite personal, perhaps one third of the tracks are my own productions, and the rest are only tracks from my jell fam. I play pretty hard usually, but my sets are really not only „kicks drums and hihats“, violence for the sake of violence is not really my thing, I'm interested in emotion, rhythm and feeling above all. I really like emotional melodies, vocals, and I loooove techno versions of any genres from pop to trash metal.. anything goes, really. I guess this mix also reflects that." - @wallis-music

"I wanted to do something a but different so I decided to string together a mix of tracks and edits I’ve made in the last couple months. Still a work in progress but I thought it’d be nice to get out of my comfort zone. I want to work on my production this year so I thought this would be a good exercise to do. I think it’s quite representative of me, it’s ultimately a collection of sounds across the spectrum. Almost didn’t do this as I didn’t think it was good enough but my friends forced me to see it through! I’m glad I did though." - @djfauzia

"Ah for once I have so much to say about a mix. It was recorded at home on my janky cdjs, the very last night before it was due (sorry Frankie!). I don’t think I’ve ever held off recording a mix for this long before, but with how the world is at the minute I couldn’t figure out what to put together? I’ve been feeling introspective and moody and caged in and anxious and full of energy, but then there are these sweeping moments of optimism for when we can all come together again. So I guess that’s what this mix is, within the framework of the dance music I love. I sneaked in a first listen of a new track by me, and there’s a bit of modified Rashad towards the end too - I’ve been thinking about his music a lot at the minute. 

I really can’t wait for us all to hold each other in the rave again, and I hope this mix can help tide us over until then." - @yung-anz

"I made this mix because too many black queer and trans femmes lives are being taken from us too soon. This world wants to harm us in the physical and spiritual sense; to strip us of all of our happiness and joy. I won’t allow that. I want to honor them and their lives through music and dance. Protect black women, black queer women, black trans women, black non-binary folks, and the like. Shoutout to all of the black queer artists who made the tracks that I featured in this mix.

"This mix is really special to me because I played exactly what I felt and I had such an enjoyable time recording it. Thank you for thinking of me. This mix is also really special to me because it's what led me to officially join JukeBounceWerk. In this mix, I wanted to show them gratitude. I appreciate them so much. I wanted to show my appreciation by playing one of their highlight tracks. I remember asking the co-founders if I could play the track but it was totally cool if I wasn't allowed to because I wasn't part of the crew. Then, they asked me to join. That day was great. It felt like all of the holidays combined. I hope listening to this mix you feel my feelings too." - @elisenyc

"This is a succinct burst of emotion from me, a mix that will hopefully move you through, with percussion, that picks up with the rhythm and vocals. I focused on music produced and remixed by Black women from the global diaspora, who's music of recent I've been delving into more and more. For me, it's a true reflection of my mood of recent - floating between mesmeric sounds and an upbeat constant." - @niksdelanancy
