''We thought of life by analogy with a journey, a pilgrimage, which had a serious purpose at the end, and the thing was to get to that end, success or whatever it is, maybe heaven after you’re dead. But we missed the point the whole way along. It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing or to dance while the music was being played.''

Stockholm based (but you can often find him on party’s in the Netherlands) MO))) spoiled us with a 3,5 hours set consisting of only quality grooves to delight your soul. His presence on the dancefloor is indispensable and he brings us the same energy in this mix. MO))) brings us Moroccan gnawa, Brazilian jazz-funk and warm soulful deep house. Lovely people, enjoy 😊

Finally!

At long last, after quite a few requests, here's the follow-up to my 1st mix for House Dance Forever, which i did back in January 2018, over the years re-titled to "HOUSE MUSIC WILL NEVER DIE", from here-on shortened to HMWND.

This 2nd installment harbours 15 jammies; ranging from Garage to Techno to Afro House to Deeper Cuts to Gospel, as House Music embodies so many different styles and/or feelings, it would be a waste to stay in one pocket. 

Here's a good moment for a tiny disclaimer: this isn't your proper background house music, as I felt like incorporating a few tracks I tore up some dance floors with over the years (and myself too in the process), so at certain points the stuff goes. At least you're warned ;).

Lastly, but surely not least: this mix is dedicated to the memory of Phil Asher, who sadly left this planet in January 2021, and since The Great Reset was in full effect at the time, I never got around to do a proper tribute to the good man.  The two gems "Revolution = Solution" & the remix to Lisa Shaw's "Always" are done by him, the latter as a member of the Restless Soul collective. Phlash Forever!

HMWNDII: House Music Will Never Die - pt. II (HOUSE DANCE FOREVER 2022 Promo Mix)

Moe is originally hailing from Sudan and moving through different destinations landed in his current home, Stockholm / Sweden. I first noticed the 2 meter giant ( 2,50 if you count the hair ) on a dancefloor in Amsterdam wearing his usual colourful tunic, dancing his ass off literally as if there was no tomorrow. Rumour has it he's in the 50.000 step dance programm. The strange thing about first meeting him was, that EVERYBODY i knew , knew him already. The way I understand it is, that he's dancing at every party everywhere at the same time. Don't ask me how that's possible, it just is. 
I ve never met somebody with a purer heart and a purer love for music and dance. A wonderful manifestation of pure love for life and a deeply spiritual being.
As all the best DJ's the journey starts on the dancefloor, that's where we learn the pace and buildup of energy of a good set. We experience how it feels to be mesmerized.
I have nothing but love for Moe and the way he approaches music and dance. Give it up for the one and only: Moe!

Lumberjacks In Hell (Guest Mix)

Lumberjacks Tapes 040: Moe ( Endless Groove )

Migrating from mixcloud to soundcloud. New mixes incoming, but for now I'm reuploading some older ones, starting with this mix I did last year for Davide Del Vecchio's REHAB LDN radio show at Universal Rhythms Radio. 

"I met @davidedelvecchiomusic a few months back (on a dance floor, as per the norm) while we were both losing our collective mind over a deeply soulful set by the maestro @guakacvo at the jazz cafe. We immediately bonded over the shared love of music and parties, and we bumped into each other again during hunee's wild 10hr set later that weekend. I will never tire of saying this: dance floor pals are the best of pals.

Davide and his crew immediately make me feel welcome and part of the gang, an attribute I value and appreciate above all else. So to be asked to play a guest mix on his wonderful @rehab_ldn show on one of my fav online radio stations @universalrhythms.music is an absolute treat, thank you for the invite man.

I wanted to capture the energy of that incredible weekend that featured dancing at 4 parties across 3 days, and hopefully this hour mix of deep gwoka, soulful electronica and jazzy house does just that.

As always, thanks for reading and listening."

Hi and Welcome to Italo Moderni

Almost weekend and we are releasing a new inspiring mix by the Programmer at Operator radio, event producer, cultural researcher and dj; Krismika is heavily involved both on and off stage in Rotterdam's nightlife. Her sound is heavily influenced by the months she spent in Prague in 2021. She saw here that the sound of Prague's nightlife was a lot darker and gloomier than what she knew from Rotterdam. As a dj her sound yields a broad selection of tunes within the genres of Electro, New Beat, EBM, Wave and Italo. A dark combination destined to get (and keep) you dancing.
