People usually talk about Berlin, London, New York when discussing electronic music hotspots, and Paris doesn't always get its due. Case in point? It produced Jennifer Cardini, one of the most distinctive DJs to to ever come out of the city. (She's lived in Germany for a while, but the point stands.) Her sound lands somewhere between disco, house and EBM, rooted in a groovy, post-modern chug. You'll hear nu-disco, industrial, techno and electro too, usually built around big hooks. It's a sound that is not only instantly recognizable, but instantly likable.

As a producer, Cardini also deserves her flowers. She's been putting out records since the mid-'90s, and with her first label Correspondant, she's built up a rock-solid catalogue from artists like Fort Romeau, Man Power, Cormac and more. More recently she started the Dischi Autunno imprint, a place for more crossover-friendly music that indulges Cardini's tastes for all things melodic (and maybe a little goth).

Cardini's RA Podcast is a beautiful summary of all these ideas and influences. It's hard and banging, sure, but also lithe and athletic. There are plenty of tracks with the surge of EBM or the stab of industrial. Lots of reverb. Decadent melodies undergirded by tough drum patterns. And it's paced as expertly as you'd expect from someone who's been DJing for over 30 years. In the interview below, Cardini says she "loves how the young generation is digesting four decades of club / rave culture," and you can hear that history living and breathing in Cardini's DJing, too.

First up for The Mix is Danny From Miami 🌴

@dannydaze takes us on a trip through Miami dance music history, diving into the irregular rhythms he grew up with and nodding to the new wave of flag-bearers. It also features an in-depth interview, exploring  his journey from childhood DJing to time in prison to rising up as Miami’s favourite figurehead, and the first explanation of the concept behind his long-awaited debut album ‘::BLUE::’.

"With this mix, my intention is to show a side of the IDM world I grew up with, steering away from the misconception that IDM is chaotic kitchen utensil-like sounds. I wanted to show a softer side focused on “danceable IDM” and electro. Music you can still bop your head to. As a youngster, I grew up dancing to non-traditional rhythms coming out of labels like M3rck, Schematic, and Beta Bodega, so I wanted to represent quite a bit of this Miami-infused sound along with some newer acts I’ve been immensely into at the moment," he says.

The Mix is our new online mix and interview series, dedicated to the spectrum of electronic music from around the globe, exploring sounds and stories from the early days of rave to the future. 

Mixmag has a long history of publishing mixes, from our legendary cover CDs accompanying the print magazine to our worldwide video streams in The Lab. Last year we celebrated 40 years in the game and The Mix now arrives as a fresh outlet to document DJs and the musical movements they represent, showcasing their sound alongside an in-depth interview. The design pays homage to a previous Mixmag logo from the ealy ’90s, nodding to our heritage while using the square and rectangular building blocks to construct an aesthetic that works cohesively with contemporary design elements and digital motion systems. 

We’ll still be bringing you the Cover Mix, The Lab and occasional sets in other formats, with The Mix is taking the place of our In Session and Impact features, intending to bring an updated look and vision to our flagship weekly DJ profile and sequencing them into one place, without separation. We hope you enjoy.

Tracklist + Interview

The Mix 001: Danny Daze

To us, Daniel Ansorge aka Barnt is what Lady Gaga might be to someone else. Barnt is one of our all-time favorite artists. Whenever he played somewhere nearby, we made sure to be there.

We’ve been following him closely ever since his early releases around 2012. So you can imagine that having Barnt play at Festival Rosnička 2024 was a dream come true for us.

Even though Daniel, together with his label Magazine, has influenced an entire decade of younger underground music producers, he has remained incredibly humble and modest. He also never lowered the quality of his music or changed his sound just to become more popular.

We’re honored to share with you one third of Daniel’s set from his performance at Rosnička 2024.

Welcome to episode number 105 of Observatory by Sungate on Openlab Radio
For this edition, Facundo delivers a masterclass in cinematic depth and restrained tension. Drifting between dub-soaked techno, broken rhythms, and spectral ambiance, his hour-long set unfolds like a lucid dream—textural, shadowy, and deeply immersive. A soundtrack for introspective motion.
In true Observatory fashion, Moy Santana, Sungate cofounder, takes the reins for the second hour, guiding us through a refined constellation of propulsive grooves and emotionally charged electronics. Hypnotic, fluid, and always reaching forward.

A longtime friend of Nachti - we all remember his legendary sets from the early 2000s in Olganitz. We were truly thrilled to welcome him back, this time with his captivating new dub project.

Mathimidori @mathiaskaden treated us to a beautifully textured journey - dreamscapes that delighted every ear on the Ambient Stage during those warm summer days.

Hodei Zabalza, Olite/Erri-Berri (Navarra) 1999

El joven navarro Hodei6Z comenzó muy pronto su andadura en el mundo de la música, cursando 9 años de percusión y otros tantos de guitarra eléctrica. 

Con el paso de los años, por influencia de amigos cercanos empezó a conocer el mundo de la música electrónica que desató una gran curiosidad en él. Comenzó explorando varios estilos siempre manteniendo esa esencia melódica envolvente acompañada de ritmos marcados entre 118-130 bpms.

Tras un tiempo probando y desarrollando nuevos estilos, sus sesiones actualmente destacan por su gran selección musical que se caracterizan por arrancar a bajos bpms con melodías tribales de afro-house seguido de temas más movidos de Deep-house con ritmos elegantes y sutiles que van llevándote por su viaje musical para acabar con sonidos mas agresivos y a altos de bpms e inclinándose a géneros más techno y electro.

Cabe mencionar su gran conciencia con la cultura electrónica, cultura de club y musical en general de este artista, apoyando y aportando cada vez más a ella.
