It is our divine pleasure to welcome back to the fold one of our favourite ever guests. We've hosted Dave twice now under the guise of both his record labels Hustler Trax and Closer To Truth and both mixes have received overwhelmingly positive responses!

Today Dave returns under his Closer To Truth Label (co-run with Alex Agore) based down in Bournemouth. Closer To Truth  focus on intrinsically deep records with luscious rolling deep basslines, elements of jazz, dreamy vocals & soul however they do suprise with the odd bit of bump 'n' swing. Their back catalogue boasts EP's from Henna Onna, Jason Hersco, Tree Threes, Immersif, Tiptoes, Milton Jackson, Marlon George & Intr0beatz to pick from just a few!

We're delighted to say that this mix features plenty of forthcoming & exclusive records signed to Closer To Truth with varied release dates from later this month to early next year. These forthcoming releases are from Rephlex, Black Chynese, Bralan Arias, Javonntte & Radic The Myth. Also on rotation are some other fine releases from the likes of Intr0beatz on Slothboogie & Crackazat on Stay True!

Grooveology with Closer To Truth is now live on our Soundcloud and as soon as you're finished don't forget to go digging through the labels catalogue for some sweet records! You can also check out the Taktix mixes on the CTT Soundcloud for some extended deep house mixes!

House Saladcast 929 | Darius Kramer
Soul Room Sessions
Vancouver, Canada

Darius is a self proclaimed "House Addict". He fell in love with the house sound as a teenager living in Montreal back in the early '90s when he would stay up late on Friday nights and record a dance mix show on Montreal radio. He was hooked from then on. He then proceeded to start mixing with one tape deck and a CD player and never looked back.

When he moved to Vancouver in the late '90's, he started buying records almost daily and spent most of his free time at his favourite record stores at the time, Bassix and Mekanix records. Over the next few years, Darius held various residencies and ran 2 club nights in Vancouver, playing alongside such talent as Lawnchair Generals and Johnny Fiasco, as well as playing at numerous after hours and raves. After getting tired of both the late nights and politics in the scene, he decided it was time to hang up the headphones in the early 2000s, but the love of house music still burned inside of him as the years passed.

In 2013 he decided he wanted to get back into DJ'ing and purchased a basic Pioneer controller and started to collect digital tracks again. Over the past few years Darius has been busy making a name for himself in the underground scene with numerous guest mix appearances around the world on such labels as House Salad, Reason2Funk, Uglyhouse, Little Routine, Selecta Music, Leven Underground and House Jet Radio just to name a few. He also started the very popular "SPEED BUMPS" mix series which showcases his love for hip hop and jazz as he shows his versatility as a DJ by blending mixes of nu jazz, hip hop instrumentals and acid jazz flavours reminiscent of Mark Farina's legendary series, Mushroom Jazz.

He also launched the hugely successful "Soul Room Sessions" podcast showcasing the soulful and jazzy side of house music and downtempo beats with guest mixes from some of the biggest names in the game and the series is still going strong!

In 2017 Darius got his first taste of out of town gigging playing live shows all over the West Coast from his hometown in Vancouver, to San Francisco and Oakland. Stay tuned for much more from him in the near future!

Good Vibrations Mixshow with Sean McCabe - March 2024

Music Producer / DJ Ezel has been in the limelight of quality house music since its inception almost 14 years ago. Still, in the last 3 years, he has taken the scene by storm establishing himself as one of the soulful top house music producers constantly delivering chart-topping and floor-filling jams.
Originals productions such as his work with musical teammate Rona Ray for songs like “Hard to Stay Away” “Don’t Know Yet” or “History Repeating” and carefully curated remix work such as his afro house remix banger J.A.E. “Love Me Right” or the funk boogie filled action on his remix of Dezaray Down “The Real Deal” create the unanimous consensus that we are in front of a true musical powerhouse that knows no boundaries when it comes to creating amazing dance music with a timeless feel and with its own deeply authentic signature sound behind it.
As a DJ he has traveled the world with gigs all across the United States, Europe, and Japan. Just recently he shared the stages with greats such as Osunlade & Natasha Diggs at NYC Soul in the Horn party at one of the city's most exclusive venues club SILO in Brooklyn to a packed house leaving the audience asking for more.
As he exchanges being a very sought-after session musician/engineer and producer with selective touring each year, last year also saw him grace the west coast of the U.S. and Mexico for the first time as he participated as one of the headliners of the famous Mi Casa Holiday event sharing the decks with none other than Louie Vega.
This year 2024 with the announcement of his new album project “Take Me Home” produced by himself and that features a duo partnership with the amazing singer Rona Ray, one of the hottest voices in the house right now, Ezel embarks on his first European tour in years and is about to grace for the first time, in a long-anticipated reunion the audiences of the UK, which sounds and vibes has brought so much inspiration and vision to his work.
The new album “Take Me Home” brings about a newfound excitement for this experienced producer who started his career as a protege of the infamous Osunlade back in 2009. Now the owner of his musical destiny and a proud owner of his imprint “Bayacou Records” which sees the majority of his work, Ezel procures to continue to elevate his status in the scene by continuing to build a reputation of being an exciting vibrant contributor to our music putting out constant quality work while impacting audiences worldwide.
