Club Novia Talents - Frontroom - 02.08.2023

To me funky and groovy house music is characterized by infectious and upbeat energy.

This energy is provided by added elements that make you want to move, to make it impossible to stand still while listening to the music. This element comes in many forms. It could be a vocal, a drum loop, a bassline, or even different instruments. The track has to carry an element to engage you and make you move.

This mix incorporates some easygoing tracks, and some tracks that carry serious energy. There is no limit, as long as there is funk and groove to it.

This mix contains different energy levels, with an increase in energy throughout.

Some tracks go back in time, whereas some tracks have been released fairly recently. I like to blend these together to show the timelessness of music, and to provide a variety of sounds while trying to keep the sound consistent and coherent.

REC 001

This mix dives a little bit deeper than the previous one and contains some tracks that I haven't yet played that often. Some older gems from the early 2000s by artists like StoneBridge, Phunk Data, and Olav Basoski.

I strongly feel that tracks being faster/harder does not mean they have to lose their groove. I tried to capture that in this mix by giving it more energy, keeping the bpm above 130 with a big focus on with groovy, funky, french/filter house.

Not much more to be said.

REC 002

Easily one of my favourite sets that I recorded. Put a big focus on groove, making sure the whole set was rolling along. Tempo is fairly high as well.

Came in with a rough list of tracks and no other preparation. I often decide on my first two tracks and then feel where the rest goes. It's what I do during my normal sets and it always gives me the best experience and results. Wanted to try the same approach for this set, and for me it worked out for me. Simply connecting with the music is what works best and what makes me most creative.

Enjoy bouncing along x
