Description: live set from one of the best parties in NYC!

Wanna relive this entire set over and over again forever! TOOOOREEE

Because of our weekly 2-hour radio show, making and releasing mixes is something we don't get around to often. They tend to require too much energy and often end up feeling ephemeral, a drop in a bucket that's already full to the brim.

This 5.5 hour mix is a live recording from us, Paul Raffaele & Barbie Bertisch, DJing at 718 Sessions on Sunday November 21, 2021, a gig we recently played that meant a lot to us. Benny Soto and Danny Krivit will celebrate their 19th anniversary next week and the party has long served as a beacon of light in our world: a place to learn, be with chosen family, release the pressure and experience joy.

This lineup was originally booked for March 22, 2020 but it was cancelled due to COVID. Luckily, the same lineup was revived for the party's return to indoor dancing, taking place at Good Room in Brooklyn. This night was particularly special because it was the first time we would play 718 Sessions, our favorite party, as a duo.

In a pivot from what one might expect from our sets, we made a conscious effort not to play any Garage or Loft classics to widen the musical offering of the party and avoid overlap with Danny in the main room. Some mixes are great, some aren't, but in a bit of a protest to today's world digital perfection, we've kept it all in there and serves as a record for one of our favorite nights DJing together ever.

We recorded line in from the mixer but also the sounds of the room, blending music and crowd together and resulting in what you'll hear throughout the mix. It's an effort to capture some of the room's energy and not just a collection of songs one after the other.

Our style is representative of an amalgamation of the DJs we grew up listening to and studying, most intensely: Joaquin 'Joe' Claussell, François Kevorkian, Danny Krivit, Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy, Louie Vega, Dope Jams, Theo Parrish, but there are many more. Thank you for the inspiration.

Love Injection live at 718 Sessions (November 21, 2021)

DJ/Producer/Remixer Victor Rosado is a very good old friend of mine, originally from New York, Victor has been actively DJ'ing since the 80's, having played at the Loft for David Mancuso and in the closing months of the Paradise Garage, asked to play by Larry Levan. Victor is someone I learnt an immense amount from in terms of music, and the importance of presentation. He was one if not the opening DJ at Club Yellow in Japan and one of the first opening DJ's at Ministry Of Sound in 1991 and played there during the first few very important years. Also he played at Moist (DJ Harvey and Heidi's) night at The Gardening Club in Covent Garden London. In the early 2000's we brought Victor over to london again to do various parties including Voices and other nights. Victor was also alongside Lenny Fontana part of the 'Tribute To Paradise' European tour, which myself and Johnny Hiller organised. Which took in clubs such as Fabric and more. This is a live mix converted from a DAT tape.. Victor was kind enough to lend to me many moons ago, while staying with him in The Bronx NYC. Enjoy this fine mix from the glory days of MOS.

Here’s a new mix to enjoy, recorded at Womb for RDC 15th anniversary closing party. Thank you for letting me play my heart out for this one, on a great system and most importantly with an amazing, open minded crowd that is eager to be surprised. Also a big Dōmo arigatōgozaimasu to all the RDC Team and DJs, the friends and dancers who came along for the ride.
