We’re delighted to share a 60 minute tantalizer from Francesco Del Garda's closing set from The Beach stage last summer.

This recording has transported us right back to Tisno where Francesco played until sunrise for his long-awaited return to Dimensions. Those that were with us know how special this set was, and now, for the first time those that weren't can also enjoy a slice of the magic.

Francesco Del Garda - Live at Dimesions 2022

Last week's Ode to Nat at Wiggle was a moment of pure and electric bliss that wholesomely reanimated the original spirit of Wiggle as it did the ethos of its dear, late co-founders Nathan and Lou. Their contagious grins could be felt filling what remaining space was left between the dancers. I arrived exhausted after an 11-hour door-to-door journey from Romania, but the energy from all the faces, familiar and new, quickly swept all that away. Unsurprisingly, Fabian and Josh clearly have it in their blood to pick up the baton from their parents under the guidance of Terry. Everyone who I heard played impeccable sets, but I'm just gutted I didn't get to catch the boys with Harvey under their 3 minds alias earlier on, but I heard it was on point as ever. Wiggle is back, and long may it thrive! Oi oi!

Big thanks to Eddie, who kindly recorded my set.

Our mate from day dot @stevehuerta takes to the wheels for episode 22, on his birthday no less. For the keen eared listener there's a few newies off his next @leizuremusic, the label he launched 3 years ago. Big ups Diesel.

Our very own Hamish & Toby take the reins for podcast number 73, with a special recording from their opening set at Houghton this past summer.

Lock in for 2.5+ hours of deep & summery house gems from across the map. Anyone that was there will know how much of a sweet day this was, so it's our pleasure to re-live this moment.

BSU 073 - Hamish & Toby (Live from Houghton ’24)

Liquid Earth contributes to Off-Kilter with a club mix recorded live at Carousel in Sydney. Driving and propulsive, this submission moves through jackin tech house, melodic and warpy techno with moments of acid-tinged electro.

The singular brand of house music that Taylor Freels produces as Liquid Earth is uniquely transatlantic, infusing the rhythmic sensibilities of London and Berlin with the sun-soaked serenity of his native California. Part '80s sleaze, part '90s deepness, part '00s wiggle, Freels makes dance music cocktails that pop like a twist of lime hitting seltzer. Melodic, crisp, and always refreshing, each track by the California-native is singularly recognisable as he refashions vintage sounds for the clubs of tomorrow.

Under his most recent alias, Liquid Earth, Freels has been pushing, as Resident Advisor put it, "tech house with a twist." His state-of-the-art analog grooves emerged from the ether fully formed in 2019 with some of the deepest basslines and crunchiest melodies out there. Freels' squigly take on contemporary house and techno always comes primed with a dose of California sunshine. 

Carrying on the legacy of storied California predecessors like Halo and Hipp-E, he's been swivelling heads and moving bodies with releases on labels at the vanguard of the underground, like Kalahari Oyster Cult and Is/Was sub label TerraFirm, collaborations with Tornado Wallace as Dinnervisions, and a remix of his starry-eyed, "Scope Zone" by Youandewan landed him notoriety among the scenesters alike. 

More than just a producer, Freels knows how to pack a punch behind the decks, moving from classic West Coast Breaks to UK tech house with aplomb and mastery. His bookings and podcasts have been piling up like hot cakes with best-in-class mixes for the likes of Honey Soundsystem, Butter Side Up and Faciendo and DJ appearances from Dimensions Festival to Panorama Bar.

Joining us on the podcast this week is Silverlining. A prolific producer with over 200 vinyl releases and remixes across almost three decades, Asad is a true legend of the UK underground, his inventive, deep sound recognisable across the many aliases he’s operated under.

On DIM330, his considerable skills as a DJ take centre stage. We’ve already had this one on repeat—nearly two hours of deeply dug house, mixed with a seamlessness that reflects his decades both in the studio and the booth. Classy, dynamic and the perfect midsummer soundtrack.
