V/A - The Breaks - Original B Boy Street Funk & Block Party Classics (60min mixtape by Gerry Hectic)

Volume 21 of Cellar Sessions featuring one of our favourite radio DJs Kerem Gokmen. 

Bio:
Producer and host of Dubmission since 1998, Kerem got his start in radio at a very early age in Istanbul, Turkey. While still a junior in high school in 1993, he started as a DJ and eventually on-air personality at Power FM, one of the country’s first commercial radio stations that played foreign music.
After moving to Pittsburgh in 1995 to attend university, Kerem started at WYEP as an intern in 1997 and started hosting an overnight show on Tuesday nights called Modern Times. He served as assistant music director at the station for a couple of years in the late 90s, and although he now is on-air at the station only during his Dubmission show every late Saturday night, he has remained an active DJ in the Pittsburgh music scene over the last two decades, with a focus on playing mainly vinyl when performing at different venues through the city.
Aside from his endeavors at WYEP, Kerem also serves as the director of the Pittsburgh chapter of Clean Water Action, a national grassroots environmental nonprofit organization, fighting for strong environmental and public health standards as a community organizer.

Dream Chimney proudly presents "Tidal Figures," the new EP from Paris based producer Sim Fossil. The release is a deep dive into cosmic soundscapes, synth melodies, heavy basslines weaving together elements of house, nu-beat, and ambient into a truly unique, low-BPM fusion. Across four original tracks, "Tidal Figures" explores a quiet duality of space and time. "Echo Marina" and "Nyrosine" bask in a soft, melodic glow, while "Null Meridian" and "Backcurrent" plunge listeners into a darker, even slower synthetic haze. The tracks are all driven by deep, slow basslines and shimmering synths that feel heavy and submerged, reminiscent of a half-speed Harold Faltermeyer adrift in an underwater voyage.

Adding to the EP's allure, "Tidal Figures" features two remixes from revered artists Max Essa and Project Sandro. Balearic luminary Max Essa takes on "Echo Marina," infusing it with his signature magic touch while preserving its gentle tempo. Project Sandro, the collaborative vision of Rollmottle and Tony Watson, then propels "Null Meridian" into an even deeper, outer space cruiser, showcasing their masterful blend of studio expertise and vision. This release showcases Sim Fossil's ability to create a sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking, electronic yet gently fluid, perfectly suited for the ears and hearts of the Dream Chimney fanbase.

Colour and Pitch Sessions with Sumsuch - July 2025

At We Out Here in 2021, Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy's Love Dancin' tent saved me from a very ropey day I was having. I was so grateful for and inspired by the positive vibe and music of the tent that day that I decided to put together a mix for her, on cassette tape, like we used to back in the days, to give to her at her next Loft Party in London. Unfortunately that day she suffered a nasty head injury from a collision with a turntable (live by the sword...) and had to leave early, so I left it with her partner...

Since that day at WOH, I've dreamed about playing in that tent and this year the dream has come true! I'm playing with my beloved Balearic London crew on Saturday 16 August 2025 in Love Dancin' ahead of Colleen and one of my all-time heroes, François K. So it felt like the right time to finally upload this mix. It has a disco vein running through it, in keeping with the Loft spirit, but was more specifically inspired by Colleen's set that night. I loved seeing her in peak time mode and hope the sensual, organic flavours in this mix reflect some of her energy. It features many of my favourite tracks of all time, and a few of these are definitely shortlisted for my playlist this year. I hope you enjoy it and a huge thanks again to Colleen and WOH for inviting us! 

Music from Basement Jaxx, Dimitri From Paris, Argy, DJ Duke, Loco Dice, Chicken Lips, Nebraska, Circulation and more...
