For the 52nd installment in our Just For The Night series, selectors take you on their own journey through groove. Anything goes.

This week brings us to London via France, with party host and label curator at Beauty & The Beat, Cédric Woo. You might find him playing Brazilian, Afro, zouk or gwoka just as much as revolutionary jazz, soul, dub, funk, deep house or obscure grooves and forgotten classics. The idea is to find the connections to create a unique cosmic bubble.

He started out in the mid 90s as a radio DJ & music coordinator at Radio Campus Clermont-Ferrand, with a love for post rock and all things Jamaican expanding to hip hop, funk and soul. At the turn of the century, he spent a year in New York City which would be transformative. His flatmate in Harlem (and soon to be mentor) introduced Cédric to the magical worlds of The Loft and Body & Soul, ushering in a new found love for spacey disco and cosmic music in general.

A close friendship with David Mancuso would follow, and once resettled in London in late 2000, he soon became part of the Lucky Cloud team which has been hosting the quarterly Journey Through the Light parties since 2003.

In 2005, alongside friends and fellow DJs/promoters Jeremy Gilbert and Belle Bete, BEAUTY AND THE BEAT was born, a party series & whole community built around it to this day. They would describe the sound as “organic psychedelic soul” (from Pharaoh Sanders to Patrick Adams, Talking Heads to Larry Heard, Ebo Taylor to ATCQ, Jorge Ben to Lee Perry) played on an audiophile sound-system (Klipschorn and Tannoy speakers, Sugden and Mark Levinson amplifiers, Isonoe mixer). 

It's now the longest running monthly audiophile party in London 🚀 Long may it continue!

Cedric's delivered a suitably eclectic, cosmic mix, a recording of his closing set at a Beauty & The Beat party in November 2023. We're super grateful he's shared this exclusively with us to live for all eternity on the series.

Thanks @cedricwoo 🙏

In Hour 2 we hand over to Virginia the talented DJ, singer, songwriter and producer who has been deeply involved in electronic music for over a decade. Growing up in Munich, the energetic and dedicated artist quickly found her feet in music. Having relocated to Berlin she’s been a Panorama Bar resident since 2012. Her DJ sets fuse warm analog house and electro of the 80s and 90s with off-kilter swinging grooves, layered with spontaneous live vocals that add a unique third dimension. 
She released her first solo production, the Loch & Hill EP, on Ostgut Ton in 2013, followed by her My Fantasy EP and her debut LP, Fierce For The Night, in May 2016, which was co-produced by Dexter, Martyn and Steffi. She recently did a remix for Steve Bug & Langenberg and said this about her mix;
"I choose some records that I really enjoy at the moment. It is a selection of broken & syncopated tracks who, to me, create an atmospheric and warm soundtrack for cold days ahead."
