Sam Don - State of Rhythm (Danilo Plessow / MCDE) Mix

We are more than happy to welcome @paulhillery to our hallooo Mix Series. He takes us on a laidback late night journey through some of his favorite digs he brought back to light through his comps over the years. It turned out as a beautiful night blooming thing. 🌚🪷✨ Enjoy!

↓ ↓ ↓ INTERVIEW WITH PAUL ↓ ↓ ↓

– Thank you for contributing to our mix series. How did you prepare for this mix, and how would you describe the result? 

I put a bunch of records together and then decided which direction I was going to go in. I got a 2 hour mix ready of Balearic type wonky soul and then completely changed my mind and did this one. I was going to do a mix of all new finds but then I thought why not do a compilation of my 6 compilation releases. There is one track by Todd Rundgren that isn’t on a compilation of mine but I picked up a seven of this very recently and thought it worked in this mix. I guess that 45 could be the record that didn’t leave the turntable (see question below).

– Is there a record in the mix that you associate with a special story?

Well that would make it seem like I have a favourite track, but in truth, this mix is made up of favourites, old and new. I am so glad I managed to track down the elusive Tim Green and get his wonderful track, Got More Love, licensed for my next release on BBE - I did this with the help of Tim Green’s producer Andrew Macpherson. Meeting all the artists via calls or emails and hearing their stories makes me feel extremely privileged. Sharing the music via my compilations and documenting the artists is something I only dreamt about a few years ago. Leaving these musical footprints for people to find and then follow is such a pleasure. I think the sleeve notes on my releases are vitally important as some of the artists haven’t had any press for many years, if at all. My releases are all about them and they should be highlighted for their artistry. I think a compilation should have more information about the artists and very little about the compiler.

– How do you dig for music? 

I used to spend many hours in dusty cellars and record shops searching for records. I think I definitely went through my apprenticeship over 30+ years. Before the days of the internet I would carrying a notebook with vinyl wants everywhere I went. Spending hours if not days searching every nook and cranny where ever I was. Ruining holidays for the people I was with! Buying records from postal lists and listening to clips over the phone!!! But these days I’m pretty much a recluse and do 99% of my digging online. Still taking punts at things that just ‘feel’ right. It is getting harder as prices are rising, shipping and tax is horrendous nowadays.

– One record that doesn’t want to leave your turntable lately?

There are so many records to hear it is hard to leave one on the turntable for very long. I’ve been enjoying listening to the new Will & James Ragar 12” of unreleased material that I’m putting out with BBE and Will & James’ unreleased Acoustic Album that BBE is releasing later in the year. Also loving the output of Gil De Ray, a fountain of creativity. Musically I’m always looking forward to the next record to drop on my mat so I never musically keep still. I have eclectic tastes so like to keep mixing it up at home. Mind you it doesn’t go very long before a Bridget St John album get’s pulled from the shelves - my desert island disc would still be ‘David Crosby – If I Could Only Remember My Name’ - 
it is as close to perfection an album can get.

Hallooo Mix Series No.18 – Paul Hillery

Howdy folks, it’s that time of the month again, and with the days getting shorter we’re here to lift you out of the Autumn doldrums with another spectacular Idle Cellars mix - this time from Ibizan impresario Camilo Miranda! Owner of the Homies Cuts edit label and related club nights in his home of Ibiza, French-Brazilian Camilo is perhaps best known for living the Balearic dream as Music Curator and resident DJ at Pikes Hotel, where he holds court over the decks both poolside and on the small dancefloor seen in so many Instagram videos. Camilo’s super-eclecticism makes this mix something special as he flits from genre to genre, language to language, making the world of music the ingredients for a heady, relaxing & delicious cocktail.. Press play and be transported to The White Island! 

From all of us at Idle Cellars - ENJOY!

«The mix was recorded live at Jazz:Re:Found Festival 2024. It was the long opening set that took the morning into the afternoon and welcomed the people up to the San Quirico hill, to chill and rest under the trees. The perfect occasion to indulge in lovely intimate tunes, smooth grooves, spiritual excursions and beyond. Enjoy the trip!»

A lifelong record collector with a deep-rooted love for music, DJing came as a natural extension of sharing that obsession. With over 35 years selecting, he’s played across the UK at parties like Got The Bug, Ultragroove, Jack Yer Boots Up, Balearic Social and Shades of Sound.

His style leans towards the exploratory: a fluid mix of Dub, House, Disco and Balearica; often shifting gears mid-set and finding unexpected links between tempos and moods.

eclectics mix - 181 | Scott Proper | May 2025 |

PLASTIC FANTASTIC is very pleased to be relaunching the series with an exclusive guest-mix from Sanky Was Here.

For the uninitiated, would you please tell us a little bit about yourself?

‘Hola, my name is Sanky, I can't seem to shake a childhood nickname at 52..! Anyway, I grew up in Newcastle amongst some nerdy soul and jazz types which was kind of my first and probably last love. I live in Mexico currently’.

Can you provide some insights to your mix, its inspiration, location of recording, or perhaps a few words about some of the records you’ve included?

‘As I don’t have an address here, I spend a while building up (my record collection) either back in the UK or in NYC, and a few times a year I’ll rip them all. So the mixes take a while, but I like that it’s another ‘edit’ to what I really like longterm. I think this mix is genre-free and focused on mood. I do think of it as a mix of two halves, really focused around what’s in the bag for the summer, and with a few places I’m playing in mind. Just trying to send out some love and emotional connection. There's a couple of new discoveries and weird rarities, alongside some all-time winners that I just feel are good for a summer kick-off. Mama Milk (the 2nd track on the mix) just reminds me of some hazy Ibiza afternoons, and who would’ve thought there’s ANOTHER William Pitt record worth a late night dance too!’

Are there any upcoming projects you have in the pipeline which you would like to share?

‘Well, good question. Covid got me fiddling with Ableton and learning (failing!) to play some keyboards. I made a few sketches which I have told myself I should finish this year. It’s about as close to naive pop as you can get. I played some to a couple of people and they were more enthusiastic than myself about them for sure!
Other than that, playing a couple of festivals, the mighty Love International in Tisno/Croatia in July, and the We Out Here Festival in August.’

A big thanks to Sanky Was Here for providing this awesome mix for The Sunrise Mixtapes, and for taking time out to speak to us
