Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself?

Hello! I’m Ivy (she/ her) and I live in Eora (Sydney), Australia :-) + I have a 2 year old cat called Frankie 

Who/what currently inspires you music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

I’d say that my emotions generally inspire me, as well as different times of the day. I tend to get the most ideas when I’m trying to figure out what music to listen to in a particular setting - like whether I’m walking around the neighbourhood at dusk, at the park on a beautiful day, cooking something really yummy and comforting or if I’m in a bad mood and need to let some angst out haha


Favorite sound of the city? Describe how it makes you feel. 

I don’t know if this is specific to the city but I love the bird calls that magpies make - I can hear them outside my house early in the morning and it makes me feel like I’m on holiday in the country somewhere :-)

Dream line-up? 

Sandpit Alias - sundown to sunrise 

Who do you think is the most underrated artist of our time?

Alex G <3  

If you had to describe yourself as flavor, what would it be and why?

Cinnamon - a little spicy but also sweet and delicious ;P

What is your favorite party/collective where you reside and why?

Such a tough question! If I had to name a few - Nectar, Pure Space and Vibe Positive for always putting endless love and care into their events - from lineup curation to constantly working on how they can make spaces safer, more accessible and representative of Eora/ Sydney’s diverse music community :-) 

What was your best moment on the dance floor?

In 2019 Moopie and Bayu closed a small festival called Echo Flats that was a few hours drive away, they played like 4 - 5 hours of the best, grooviest tech house I’d ever heard until the sun came up - it was a life changing morning :’)

What is your favorite temperature? What kind of music goes well with it? 

Probably something between 25 - 28 degrees celsius with some downtempo RnB :-) 

Any advice to upcoming DJs? 

Practice makes perfect! 
Preparing/ pre-planning your sets - especially when you’re nervous about a gig
Backup your shit (!!!!!!)

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community? 

More 24hr licences for venues - less gronks - more tech house

Ivy - 32˚C

"For this mix, I wanted to try something a little bit out of my comfort zone. Instead of a dance mix I went with the downtempo & trip hop sounds I've been inspired by as of late."
Milla's group project, Purelink, just released their debut full length "Puredub" via Chicago's Lillerne Tapes, the outfit's take on ambient, dub, downtempo grooves, and more.

An absolute dream of a set recorded poolside at our Glen Falls Weekender. Josh, aka Downstairs J, played from 12-3pm soundtracking sweet goodbyes & final dips in the pool. We hope it brings you relaxation and new memories.

Nothing In Moderation With DJ Voices And Kia @ The Lot Radio 09 - 14 - 2022

Nueen has been mad busy in the last two years. The Barcelona-based Mallorcan has put out three albums of beautifully quiet and unhurried ambient. Each one has unfolded with its own intimate sense of narrative and showcased deft craftsmanship with both synth and guitar. The tunes drawn on the atmosphere of Nueen's home island so fits in with what you might call Balearic, but very much on its own terms. They are warm and gentle but underpinned with a melancholy that makes them all the more engaging. 

There is plenty of that on show across the opening of this week's podcast. Roomy arrangements are detailed with only the wispiest of pads but slowly a rhythm begins to emerge. It's dubby and dreamy and transports you out to sea on a sonic life raft that eventually sinks to the ocean floor. From there you roll along on supple drums, wispy pads drift by and shards of light pierce the surface. It is a perfect soundtrack to slowly awaken your soul on a lazy morning.

Welcome to dubby, wubby paradise with one of the best of the best, Toni Yotzi <3  ( @toniyotzi)

Jo doesn’t really need much of an introduction considering she's been a mainstay in the Australian scene for a long time now, and for very good reason, but I'll do it anyway :) Her ability to spellbind with smooth genre blends with style and ease never ceases to amaze me.  She floats between dubstep, dnb, bass, techno & beyond.

Originally from Boorloo (Perth), she has been based in Melbourne/ Naarm for a decade, playing at the nation's biggest festivals & events, and having a hand in Camp Doogs (Perth) & Dooj (Melbourne). Beyond playing regularly in Melb/ Perth/ Australia, her divine DJ skills have traversed the oceans to the US & Europe.

So happy to have her as part of the series ahead of her 11pm-1am set at the Animalia x Temporal Cast party this weekend before Perko. Hope to see you all there :) 

Thanks again Jo <3333 - Downloads enabled
