Home can be anywhere, but what turns any place into that special space is how it makes us feel. Being at home brings solace, being far from it produces longing and both these affective powers work as gravitational forces, binding us not only to a certain location but to the environment fostered therein. Not every house becomes a home as much as not every home is necessarily a house, but if we are talking about that House that Frankie helped name and shape, the same one whose words became hymns are still sung at every corner of the globe and whose grooves took the world by storm, we can see how a sound can turn any dancefloor into a shelter. House, the music and its message, conjures a home for all of those willing to follow its mandates of maximum corporeal expression, deep emotional investment and expansive mental openness anywhere, as long there’s means to propagate it and people to enjoy it. It is this radical inclusive potential that makes an encounter such as the one in this episode not only possible, but truly magical: an Australian duo playing House from all over reaching a global audience through a platform created by a Brasilian crew. The result can be thoroughly enjoyed in this spectacular instalment of Gop Cast graced with a wonderful contribution by these bold selectors from Down Under known as Donald’s House.

Sometimes we are inclined to take all the things that make up our culture a bit too serious, including ourselves. It seems that, as soon as we cross over to the other side of the PA and stand before the monitors, that seminal hedonistic drive that brought us there is consumed by the unrealistic needs of our high-demanding selves, so we end up stuck on details instead of having some good fun with it all. A bit of a contradictory dynamic, since what lies at the core of any decent experience of musical enjoyment is not careful oversight but cheerful delight, and the best among us, those who excel at making others revel, know quite well when to let these details unravel. Any artist that has achieved it will tell you that, when it comes to conducting a dancefloor, greatness is a byproduct of happiness more than a matter of fitness, which is exactly what we see, hear and feel whenever we experience the enrapturing sets a DJ with CC:Disco’s talents and sensibilities has to offer. Every mix of hers is a joyful journey where she guides us through varied soundscapes made of sonic material from all around the globe and woven with technical prowess. All indispensable qualities of everything we esteem and anything she sets herself to do, and her contribution to this series is no exception.

For edition 69 of our guest mix series, we welcome once again London-based record collector Ilan (Night City Life). A true Italo enthusiast, Ilan curated Night City Life (@spacetalkmusic), one of our favourite compilations of 2019. Night City Life II will be dropping this summer (and we can’t wait 🎷)

As a DJ his selections are always rich with nostalgia and emotion, taking us on a journey through time and sound. Here is a recording of his vinyl-only set from Flow Festival last year; an Italo-tinged expedition in the Helsinki sunshine.

Orañjez ~ @radiokerne ~ Sonerezhioù kurius ha breizhat.

Replay du 26 Janvier 2025.

Première de 2025 pour Orañjez.
Pour l’occasion, je mets de côté les esthétiques musicales habituelles au profit d’une sélection plus hivernale et nocturne : ambient, downtempo, deep dubby house, blissed-out beats, trancy vibes et 90’s intelligent drum’n’bass.

C’est le genre de bande-son qui m’accompagne inlassablement en hiver, que ce soit pour avaler des kilomètres de bitume dans la Polo ou pour travailler tard le soir. 🌠

Distro eo Orañjez war Radio Kerne.

Heading up the sixth release on the prolific Bizarre Trax vinyl label is co-founder of the brand, Jhobei with his “Between Dreams & Delirium” EP. His distinct and animated sound shines bright from beginning to end as he showcases a multitude of vibes spread across five innovative cuts — the A-side providing a more serious and heady insight to his sought after repertoire, then on the flip you are served up an array of deep delicacies before rounding off the body of work in true Bizarre Trax fashion a playful, funk-fuelled explosion, nodding towards those festival moments we are all dreaming of this winter.
