This week on the podcast we welcome Lucy Cook, long time friend of the festival who's been behind some of our favourite downtempo mixes of the past few years for the likes of Outsiders and MMSU. Settle in for 90-minutes of earworms, passing by downtempo, hip hop and acid jazz on a leisurely summer stroll.

Catch Lucy spinning this year for The Ghost's takeover of The Beach on the festival's last day.

Toi Toi Mix Series / Gabriel Rai

This particular mix is very close to my heart for a number of reasons. The primary one is of course, Gabriel. The occasion, being the night of my birthday and the bringing together of two generations at the forefront of my world. Choosing Gabriel to open for Craig Richards.

As you know I have a deep rooted belief in “we need to know where we are coming from to know where we are going”. New and old generations intertwining.

Gabriel is a very unique young talent. He manages to have attritibutes that I only see in matured artists after all these years. Expansive musical knowledge, having the suitability and adaptability to the context at play; be it jazz, electronic or funk. One can feel that in the progression. Introduction, middle, end…

Story telling.

In addition to the artistic competence you have an incredible personality, one that has ambition but also remains humble, never confusing it with self-entitlement, rather …. mutual respect, appreciation and gratitude. Evident to that, he has his own party called Local Moves, born at The lion and Lamb, supporting local artists, enhancing exchange and contributing to the scene he is a part of.

The venue he holds that party residency in now Little Portland Street, also where this set was recorded. LPS is an audiophile space in Central London with a Martion Installation. This venue is very dear to my heart because I programme the Thursday nights there since it opened for nearly 3 years now.

We reach today the number #40 on our Nugcast series!

Welcome, @alsan_dj

Born in Ghent, Belgium, Alsan is a key figure behind Extase, where he not only co-organizes but also brings a signature sound that moves both bodies and minds. His sets blend electro house, tech house, and progressive rhythms, always driven by groove, energy, and a keen ear for finely curated selections. With an instinct for flow and a passion for detail, Alsan knows how to set a dancefloor alight.

So tune in for some of Arthur's favorite nugs!
