COLLISIONS @ Shelter, Amsterdam-181123

For the first time in our 25-year history, we are releasing a live solo recording by Craig Richards from the club. 

“This mix was recorded on the second of December at a Continuum party. I commenced just after five and finished at nine. The heady combination of nostalgia coupled with the past, the future and more importantly my daughter dancing next to me, resulted in a mix that I felt happy with. Historically, I have been very self-critical and have chosen not to release many mixes. Across nearly four hours this one seems to encapsulate the twenty five years of playing at fabric. In 1998 I was invited by Keith Reilly to play weekly at what was an imaginary nightclub. I had no idea that experience would continue for so many years. Playing vinyl on that sound system and mixer is highly exciting and a joy in itself. I am delighted that this has been my method of sonic communication and remain deeply grateful for my ongoing residency.” - Craig Richards


Craig will be joining us at the club on 30th March to celebrate his 25-year residency with a 25-hour Continuum party.

Futureboogie Recordings keep up the heat with three jams built for the good times, courtesy of Cassio Kohl.  The Nottingham based producer steps up to the plate with his debut release for the label, delivering a trio of finely crafted house tunes for the discerning ear.  

‘Let It Be Me’ opens the EP, heading straight into uncomplicated and organic deep house territory.  Nifty 909 drum patterns and melodic keys and chords deeper than a wizard’s sleeve, the influence of the greats like Larry Heard can be heard in Cassio’s production here.  Wistful Moog refrains and gentle pads float along the old school beat as Cassio drops a real killer vibe here.

This sophisticated style is upheld on ‘Hear Me’. Built around an infectious bassline and disco drums, the deep flavours remain centre stage to Cassio’s music as loungin’ chords and vocal refrains and skats blend with staccato guitars and luscious strings on this superb live sounding jazzy cut.

‘Come Together’ closes the EP, the swinging drums and hypnotizing bass harks back to the original deep garage house sound, as chopped up vocals in a hip housin’ style and heaps of emotive melody are layered on top, reminiscent of the sterling productions of Ron Allen in the 1990s (for the uninitiated, go check!).

A highly accomplished debut release for Futureboogie here, and one that demands the attention of Cassio Kohl as ‘one to watch; over the coming months…

Live at The Lion & Lamb - London (14.07.17)

This august would have been my first visit to Crato for a very special happening, Waking Life

The name itself carries a very deep meaning for me as it is shared with a film that has a very significant importance in my life.

Well, we all know what happened to the summer of 2020.. instead we gathered in an enchanted land behind the screen, called "The Space Between".

Chats at the beach bar and exploring our dreams underneath the stars.

This was my contribution, a trip through consciousness with eyes wide shut, traveling to the party that could have been.

Maximum gratitude for the invitation @Wakinglifeportugal

O.bee’s Dreamscape [21:22:28] The Space Between

Surely one of the best DJs in the game of House Music, Gene has not only presented killer mix after killer mix showcasting the immense depth of his collection, he also is a very good producer himself - constantly raising the bar on his very own "Limousine Dream" imprint. 

For 5918mins., Gene slows things down a couple of BPM and leads us through the downtempo side of things, with the same combination of thorough- and playfulness that has become a hallmark of his mixes. We're very happy to have him onboard and will patiently wait in line for track IDs. Enjoy!
