'For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

As we build up momentum and start to get our lives back on track, something (life) might be moving a little too fast. It would be wise to take note, take some time out, and slow down for a minute (or 127). It just so happens that I have the ultimate reality stabiliser in the form of an emotional tapestry to help you do this, woven by none other than Mr. Kev Danzey, one of the unofficial mascots of Naarm. 

Now, this bloke is a bit of an enigma, a big heart with a smile to match always got time for everyone else, someone you’d like to have a beer with. Incredibly talented on both sides of the decks, his net casts deep into every corner of the audible universe. He can mix his way into and out of a baking competition. A founding member of the Sunset Sounds movement (TIP!! (Of the hat to k-hole disco)), Wether a 5 am D-floor destroyer or dinner time digestive discourse in all things non-dance, his grasp on all things musical is second to none, and this little recorded piece of time is a resume to back this up. 

Never has there been such an acute collection of emotional pieces put together in such a way that has the potential to move mountains. I’ve listened to this mix so many times and it hits every-fucking-time, at certain points reverberating through the body, in-between those points, coursing through the body like blood. Maybe I'm a bit dramatic but I'm just trying to get the point across, maybe I’m also biased, but fuck it. Anyway, this is something you send to your parents and play to your children, it transcends most things and ascends most situations. Perfect for road trips down the coast with people you hold dear. On that note, go for a drive, press play, get out of here, cya when you get back.

Be as good as you can be.

For Trushmix 201 Cato Canari is back in the mix! Mr Canari traditionally rings in the new year at Trush.This year due to the Trushmix 200 celebration mix, it is a very belated new years mix. But  no less a good one.

A chilled out slow burner of a mix. Starting the year easy to build up positive energy and strength for the new year to come. Melodic, atmospheric ambient sounds, new age and soft Balearic. Music to enjoy!

Melbourne based label @papercutslimited join us for Butter Mix 91 with a fresh blend of tripped out and intelligent electronics mixed by label head Dylan Batelic! The  relatively new imprint kicked off their catalogue with a brave flexi disc (!) release in 2017 and have since graced us with releases by Hybrid Man, Furious Frank, Rings Around Saturn etc etc. Keep an ear out for some more brain tingling releases in the future no doubt!

Butter Mix #91 - Paper Cuts

For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Good morrow, my good people. How is thou? And is thou now? As we dive back into this altered state of what we once knew as reality, I think it's important to just stop what you’re doing and just take a minute to check yourself. This is that minute, this is that hour you should take to reassess, you owe it to yourself. This little respite for the soul comes courtesy of Naarm local, rev lon. A local future legend and a driving force behind party/podcast slingers Slow Burn (!!TIP!!), a gifted selector, playlist co-ordinator, dance floor director, the list goes on. Get to know her, you won’t regret it. 
 
The mix is absolutely sublime, relaxation at gunpoint, I implore you to press play and switch everything else off, and hopefully, your brain will follow. This is a forced restart *insert windows startup music*, embrace every bit of it. It’s what imagine clouds sound like, so soft and freely flowing, not exactly going anywhere but always moving, infinite shapes and sizes, some carry rain the others carry your imagination. Send this to someone who needs to chill the fuck out. On that note, it’s time for you to just that. Press play on this and pause on everything else. 
 
Take care of yourself these holidays. Hug your loved ones. 

Peace

For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

This year is off and running! (Please slow down), alas, let us dive into another offering from the audible gods, this time we’re joined by local legend Ryan Berkeley. This busybody is across every iteration of the music scene in Naarm; with fingers in all the good pies. From Hopkins Creek (great music festival), and The Love Above (fantastic record label and sick parties), to dj’ing, producing, and playing live, as well as drumming in the band ‘Plastic’. He’s a nice guy to boot (and great in the kitchen). His continuous support for the scene hasn’t gone unnoticed and the trajectory he’s on will take him to the stars at least. All of the above disciplines shine through in this incredibly innate musical resume. 

Layers on layers, on layers. Fluctuating soundscapes are strategically interwoven to produce this galactic tapestry. The blending of ideas and concepts throughout the mix is sublime as we hear Berkeley fully flexing his musical knowledge across genres. Spaced out funk, minimalist proto pop, mod classical ambient, future folk, peppery street soul, and even some MF Doom (RIP) materialise in rhythmic waves, slowly and hypnotically crashing against a phantasmic shore. A feel-good affair from start to finish which perfectly embodies Berkeley's musical ideals.  

Sit back and press play for the fist of many times. 

You’re welcome.

FHUO # 51 // Ryan Berkeley

In 2016, DJ Ingrid, Ryan Berkeley, and Dawn Again kicked off The Love Above party series to provide a sanctuary for house and disco lovers in Melbourne. They've since evolved into a record label that showcases some of the finest antipodean excursions into house music - check out their mammoth 16 track comp Locked In The House for more. Bliss out with two hours of Ingrid and Ryan playing the finest wax around.

Ep 233 w/ Love Above (AU/NZ)

Ryan Berkeley is a DJ, producer and multi-instrumentalist based in Naarm/Melbourne with his fingers in many musical pies: he is one half of Love Above Records; a member of jazzy house group Lush Life and local alternative-rock band Plastic. In 2018 Ryan released his debut EP on local label Houses in Motion showcasing a diverse side to his productions, with his songs “You Dance, You Move” and “All Love” picked up around the globe. His live sets use analogue gear to make his stripped-back take on house music, described by some as “polished, textured and leaving the whole crowd craving more”. This mix features the best of what makes the Ryan Berkeley sound appealing: house music dipped in a minimalist and raw approach with nods to the halcyon years of house and techno.
