A beautiful musical interpretation of the visual of sunset to sunrise in a forest, byVenus Flytrap (@venusflyyytrap), a talented emerging DJ who recently moved to Melbourne/ Naarm via Shanghai. Rachel has a penchant for deep, rhythmic & chuggy, with a range of radio shows for Baihui Live and Shanghai Community Radio.

This mix is a beautiful representation of her style and a poignant continuation of her previous outputs - I'm excited to see her flourish in Melbourne :) 

Thanks for the mix Rachel!

Hessle Audio feat. Ben UFO & Joe Delon - 07 April 2025

Everybody's looking for something...
Search and Resistance in "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)"
In Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)," the striking repetition of "Everybody's looking for something" highlights a universal search for satisfaction, but also highlights the frustration of desires that always seem unattainable. Annie Lennox revealed that the lyrics emerged in a moment of despair and nihilism, which is reflected in the disenchanted worldview presented in the song: sweet dreams are made of expectations and illusions that everyone chases, with no guarantee of fulfillment.
The lines "Some of them want to use you / Some of them want to get used by you / Some of them want to abuse you / Some of them want to be abused" expose the dynamics of power and manipulation in human relationships. They suggest that, in the search for satisfaction, people can either exploit or submit to others. The chorus "Hold your head up, movin' on" serves as advice to preserve dignity and carry on, even in the face of uncertainty and exploitation. The context of the composition, marked by the personal and professional difficulties of the Eurythmics members, reinforces the song's tone of resignation and resilience, which has become a symbol for those facing adversity and needing to continue searching for meaning amidst chaos.
So...
Enjoy this Remix

Planet Euphorique is the name of @d-tiffany’s label, but also a perfect summation of her sound: musically she reworks rave, euphoria, trance, electro, breakbeat and techno into all out emotional onslaughts that get hands in the air and chests swelling with joy. The Canadian - who also runs the xpq? label - has always got things done on her own terms, from running parties in her own house in Vancouver to making dance music with the gear she had previously used as part of a band via setting up her own women-focused Intersessions DJ school.

This week she treats us to an extra special two hour selection that will take you to the heart of a rave in your front room. It’s a mix that bristles with life, from dusty and teary-eyed breakbeats that are shrouded in nostalgia to more clipped and kicking techno. The mixing is tight and urgent and after initially serving up plenty of lush moments of melody and IDM introspection, it grows all the more direct and unhinged later on.
