David Paul Mancuso (October 20, 1944 – November 14, 2016) was an American disc jockey who created the popular "by invitation only" parties in New York City, which later became known as "The Loft". The first party, called "Love Saves The Day", was in 1970.

Mancuso pioneered the private party, as distinct from the more commercial nightclub business model. In the early 1970s, Mancuso won a long administrative trial when the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs found that he was not selling food or beverages to the public and therefore did not need a New York City cabaret license.

Mancuso's success at keeping his parties "underground" and legal inspired others, and many famous private discothèques of the 1970s and 1980s were modeled after The Loft, including the Paradise Garage, The Gallery, 12 West, The Flamingo and later The Saint. Mancuso also helped start the record pool system for facilitating the distribution of promotional records to the qualified disc jockey.

For their Worldwide Family Mixtape, Bicep did something a little different from the ordinary, looking to Africa for inspiration. 30 minutes of afrobeat and disco - a blinding selection!

Bicep on Gilles Peterson Worldwide (GPWW944)

We’ve all had those moments: when you hear that groove and instinctively turn the dial up a notch. When you’re in the car, the sun’s shining, and a wry smile creeps across your face because that track makes you feel so good. When you catch someone’s eye on the dance floor and that simple nod of acknowledgment resonates with you both in that moment.

That’s House Music. It’s a feeling.

Solid Steel in association with Serato (20th November)In Hour 2 we welcome Session Victim to Solid Steel. The German House duo have released two albums so far on Delusions of Grandeur and a whole host of singles and remixes, with their last EP coming out on Retreat in September and a track is featured in the mix. We also hear a fine selection of music from Mark Hand, Skylevel, Romare, Henry Wu and The Dark. They told us; 
"We have been fans of Ninja Tune forever and of the Solid Steel radio shows for many years, so it's a huge honour for us being asked to provide an episode ourselves.  The mix has been recorded with a mixer and two 1210s, like all our mixes to date. Our intention was to put together music that you want to listen to at home or in your car rather than something you would freak out to at a party." www.sessionvictim.de
