Now for something a little bit different. I asked the Melbourne based collective House of Friends to join this series after coming across their page a couple of months ago. Since then I've gotten to enjoy their unique take on house mixing, blending multiple genres of electronic music into one cohesive yet eclectic mood. This hour is kicked off by a tune from the criminally underrated Gene on Earth and goes on to include tracks from Jura Soundsystem and even George Michael.

In the vast expanse of the universe, where stars danced to the tune of cosmic symphonies, there was a peculiar notion known as Loxley. Now, I must caution you, dear reader, for Loxley defied the laws of reality itself. It was neither a place nor a thing, yet it existed in the whispers of the cosmos, a paradoxical enigma wrapped in a riddle shrouded by mystery.

Legends spoke of Loxley as a realm that didn't exist, a place where the very fabric of space and time unraveled like a spool of thread in the hands of a mischievous deity. Its motto, if one could call it that, echoed through the emptiness of the universe: "There's no such place. There's no such thing."

But despite its nonexistence, or perhaps because of it, Loxley emitted a haunting melody, a symphony of the impossible that reverberated through the minds of those who dared to ponder its existence. It was said that those who heard its ethereal music were forever changed, their souls eternally intertwined with the enigma of Loxley.

The backstory of Loxley read like a tale spun by the most cunning of storytellers, a narrative of intrigue and uncertainty. Some claimed that it was born from the dreams of ancient beings, while others whispered that it was the creation of a forgotten civilization lost to the sands of time.

Yet amidst the whispers and speculation, one thing remained constant: the inexplicable allure of Loxley. Its motto, "We are," served as a reminder of its elusive nature, a declaration of existence in a realm where existence was but a fleeting concept.

And so, travelers of the cosmos would often find themselves drawn to the edges of reality, seeking the elusive whispers of Loxley. They would chase the echoes of its music across the void, their curiosity fueled by the promise of unlocking the secrets of the universe.

But as they ventured deeper into the abyss, they would come to realize that Loxley was not meant to be found. It was a puzzle without a solution, a mystery without end. And yet, in their pursuit of the impossible, they would find something far more profound—a glimpse into the infinite possibilities of existence, where even the concept of nothingness could give rise to something as enigmatic as Loxley.
