Production and DJ duo https://soundcloud.com/the-carry-nation is comprised of Will Automagic & Nita Aviance who have been bubbling into the helm of NYC’s underground over the last 10 years. They just released their mix to our podcast series which oozes with style and is firmly rooted in the excitement of New York’s City history. With mayor milestones as Panorama Bar, Glastonbury’s Block 9 and DJ support for Beyoncé, there is no sign this unstoppable duo is slowing down. We couldn’t think of a better way to start the weekend! Link in bio.

On their favorite track:
At 1:16 this mix includes the track "Damn" by Nick Brenner. We added this track to the mix as it will be released this month on Major Records, our label we run with Justin Cudmore and Mike Servito.

Good news! Pacific Spirit is back after a small hiatus with our first mix of 2024. This time around it's a 3 hour live recording from one of Pittsburgh's finest, Aaron Clark. Here's a bit of back story on the recording:

In October 2022, Hot Mass threw a fundraiser for the Kyiv Angels – a group doing work to support Ukrainian civilians. We tapped Kyiv’s Closer resident Shakolin, and I took the warm-up set of the night. This is the recording of my part of the night. I dusted off a lot of old favourite records and leaned into a slow build that I try to set the club up with, tugging the floor between psychedelic rhythms, trippy techno and pops of house. This recording landed in that bullseye opening zone I aim for, and I hope it transports you to my favourite little dance floor in the world."

Enjoy the audio everyone! Also be sure to familiarize yourself with the many projects Aaron is involved with including - Hot Mass, Honcho, and Honcho Campout. Aaron is also a resident at the NYC dance institution Nowadays, if you happen to find yourself in the Big Apple and he's playing you're in for a solid session!

ANALOG SOUL @ The Lot Radio 01-17-2024

Alias: Dee Diggs
Pronoun: She / Her
Location: Brooklyn, NYC
Music labels: Toucan Sounds
Name of the mix: House is a Spiritual Feeling
About the mix: For me, House music is a 44-year-old genre of music that originated and popularized in the black gay LGBTQ+ nightclub spaces of New York, Chicago, and Detroit that spilled on to influence and inspire the world. House music is a living breathing relic that tells its own story in the hits, the lyrics, the parties, and our legends and legacies in local and worldwide scenes. 
House music is a mode of being, a ritualistic euphoria we gather for, a space of praise, connection, and unadulterated feeling, healing and dancing- kind of like church should be, a dance floor where there is room for someone like you.
The mix I made explores a spiritual realm of House music with influences of Jazz, Disco, Gospel, and African and Latin Diasporic sounds. 
Its infectious rhythms take you into a certain sentimentality. This is an ancestral conversation twisting into different messages of hope and resilience. The heart, soul, and mind are wrestling with big themes in these transitions. Though breaking through at times to find lightness, this one is meant to go deep. I love that House Music can hold all the multitudes and complexities of being human.

Live recording from Dee's opening set at Nowadays with Stacey Hotwaxx Hale.

Dee Diggs
"Legacy connections on the dancefloor and in the dj booth inspire me to go deeper than ever before. Usually, I can do this by tapping into a spontaneous element of playfulness that allows me to seek catharsis in the imaginative layering of sound, using intuition to connect the messages within the lyric soup of my selections and braiding them all into a story, a feeling or an atmosphere.

I'm grateful for a recording that captured the pure passionate expression and alignment of this night. I got to play Disco, House, and Soul with and for someone as esteemed as Stacey Hotwaxx Hale! This is the opening set, the opening of a portal where the soul awakens and gets to shake and dance to an ecstatic peak in the night."
