The first mix in a series to showcase those that inspire us, it seemed like a no-brainer to kick our series off with the man who influenced our musical tastes more than any other; the Godfather of the Salt Lake City, UT scene, the one and only Chris Sick. This is a mid tempo breaks and house mix, but just one side of Chris' sound. It showcases his innate ability to select highly original, chunky and groovy music and mix it in a way that melts and fuses vibes and basslines, telling a journey through tempo changes, juxtaposition and harmony.
We hope you enjoy the ride as much as we do.

Hand Selected Mix Series 002:  @tjcoito (Bloom - ATL)

This set was recorded at a recent Bloom party in direct support for @Shakolin, touching all sides of techno on the electro tip.  

Tj Coito, co-owner and resident vinyl selector of @bloomatl is originally from Los Angeles and now deeply embedded in the Atlanta scene. With roots in drumming and early influences in tech house and prog house, his time spent digging in Europe led to a refined sound that traverses genres with precision and passion. Whether playing downtempo, trip-hop and Italo at one of Atlanta’s hi-fi sound bars or blending high energy genres for a dance floor, Tj focuses on collecting and playing records from across the spectrum. 

We hope you enjoy this refined blend of electro vibes.

Considered one of the "Godfathers" of the Salt Lake City scene, Chris Sick has been active in DJing, producing and promotion for more than 30 years. His musical journey began in 1986, when house music still was known by names like: "New Beat", "Acid House", "Rave", "Hip House", & of course, "Techno.”

Originally known as "DJ Mechanized,” Chris was the founder of the first EDM record shop in Salt Lake City, UT, “Mechanized Records,” later co-owned with Kaskade (aka Ryan Raddon) where they both created, promoted and attended many of the first rounds of parties.  Chris also released his first record, “Arms Wide Open” (on the short lived “Mechanized Records” label) which has become an extremely rare and highly sought after release, cherished by anyone lucky enough to own a copy.  His earliest days in the House music movement had him as resident DJ in some of the most influential clubs of the time, such as “Playscool,” where his weekly 6 hour sets gained a devout following.  Throughout the 90’s, Chris became famed for his moving, beautiful and powerful sunrise sets at parties under the stars, in seemingly endless deserts, on lakeside beaches and wooded mountain clearings.  He has played alongside most major US DJs and a grand host of international talent in 39 States and 3 Countries.  

Chris continues to push the boundaries of dance music with his unique blend of broken and glitchy breaks, with a release on his label “Sick Sounds.”  He prefers to play in a “fusion” style that blends breakbeat driven music (Progressive Breaks, Glitch, Nuskool, Dubstep and Old School Funk) with traditional 4/4 dance-floor fare as the backbone of the set, and this set perfectly embodies it.  Chris’s title for this mix is Armed With Analog. ❤️

This mix is vinyl only.  Expect some pops and crackles. 

Relax, sit back and enjoy the ride. 🎢

This all vinyl mix is the full recording from Corrigan and Nico Tobón’s back to back set from our Hand Selected party on 09/26/25. 

Not many DJs these days have the patience, restraint, or even track selection to properly open a room.  However, Corrigan and Nico Tobón aren't your average DJ.  Both are local heroes known for throwing underground parties around Denver, with Nico Tobón’s party series “Con Amor” and Corrigan’s party series  “Breakeven Productions.”  Not to mention, the unbelievable sound system used on this evening was hand crafted / DIY by Corrigan and rivals the best sound systems in the city.

Corrigan and Nico were in fine form, sounding like a single entity, layering moods and vibes as thick as the fog.  We are happy to share their set and hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
