Ian has been playing music to people at parties, in clubs, bars and on radio for over 30 years. An avid collector of funk, soul, hip-hop and electro records, he eventually became absorbed into the nascent acid house scene in East London and Essex. Throughout the 90’s and into the 2000’s, he trod the well worn path of DJ residencies and promoting parties eventually making and releasing his own music, remixing and running a record label spanning the evolution from big-beat to NuSkool breaks.

After a move to South East London, Ian secured a residency at Deptford institution bar and radio station, AAJA, playing slots live at the bar and online, spawning the long-running Dark Disco Radio show, now broadcasting monthly on Mixcloud. 

Recent DJ bookings include iconic venues the Social in London and the world famous Golden Lion in Todmorden. As a producer and remixer, his output can be found on scene-favourite labels like Paisley Dark, When Disco Goes Wrong, Hottwerk and the seminal Nein Records, also spawning his breaks and acid collaboration with Nein head-honcho Neil Parnell as PARVALE.

The Sound of Bordello A Parigi – A Tribute Mix

The Darker Side of Disco is a radioshow hosted by Reyk. In the monthly show he will showcase Disco influenced music with a darker twist. It will feature the latest releases and timeless classics from genres like Italo Disco, Indie Dance, Dark Disco, some trance vibes and everything in between.

For this episode, I’m dropping my annual Disco mixtape. This time, I went deep, deep, deep down the rabbit hole to pick out the finest tracks from the 80s and 90s, along with a few more recent gems. The result is two hours of Italo Disco that will make you crave a Campari in Rimini.

One of my favourite sessions from the week was playing with my brothers from the Balearic Burger crew at the Ridge and Furrow. Sun was shining, spirits high and beer flowing. Absolute delight to play this venue. Big thanks to Simon Lloyd for organising and to Glass Beams to be coincidentally playing West Holts as I wandered back to my base camp in Babylon.

Music For Dreams Radio Show 9.8.25

At We Out Here in 2021, Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy's Love Dancin' tent saved me from a very ropey day I was having. I was so grateful for and inspired by the positive vibe and music of the tent that day that I decided to put together a mix for her, on cassette tape, like we used to back in the days, to give to her at her next Loft Party in London. Unfortunately that day she suffered a nasty head injury from a collision with a turntable (live by the sword...) and had to leave early, so I left it with her partner...

Since that day at WOH, I've dreamed about playing in that tent and this year the dream has come true! I'm playing with my beloved Balearic London crew on Saturday 16 August 2025 in Love Dancin' ahead of Colleen and one of my all-time heroes, François K. So it felt like the right time to finally upload this mix. It has a disco vein running through it, in keeping with the Loft spirit, but was more specifically inspired by Colleen's set that night. I loved seeing her in peak time mode and hope the sensual, organic flavours in this mix reflect some of her energy. It features many of my favourite tracks of all time, and a few of these are definitely shortlisted for my playlist this year. I hope you enjoy it and a huge thanks again to Colleen and WOH for inviting us! 

Music from Basement Jaxx, Dimitri From Paris, Argy, DJ Duke, Loco Dice, Chicken Lips, Nebraska, Circulation and more...
