Idle Cellars is back with another chiller killer for your Autumn revelry! This time around we’ve got another stellar mix from West Coast pioneer, Bay Area Rave legend & Cali breakbeat progenitor DJ SPUN! Responsible for breaking breaks in SF in the early 90s, punk rock bandleader in the early 80s, disco mastermind in the early 00’s - the man has been there, done that, whether via his label Rong Music, curating events at PS1 in NYC with the cream of club culture, humbly embodying some of the greatest DJ skills in the world, let alone the US (and let alone California!). 

His resume is far too long to list here, but he’s given us this fantastic mix for horizontal grooving that he’s titled “Idle Dub…Idle Chug”. Spun commented: “For fall and winter I usually switch to red wine…So this mix marked the start of the season and is a testament to the effect of a bottle of red!” Say no more squire! 

As usual, we’re in love with this journey through music, a gentle nudge from wonderful ambience through some late-night dubby funk on a slo-mo tip, keeping things musical and in outerspace!

From all of us at Idle Cellars, ENJOY!

Next up in our mix series is Ron Trent 🩷

We know many of you have been waiting for this one...

We're overjoyed to finally be able to share the recording from a night in The Bowl with the pioneering DJ, producer, and architect for much of today's house music; Ron Trent.

Known for sets that embody the essence of soul, his performance from last Summer was undoubtedly a highlight for many.

This is the latest REMIX of my track: IF THIS IS THE END. It's inspired by... Well Duh! 

Sadly it's about the END of a relationship. I broke up with my Partner of 9 Years. He revealed to me that He wants to Transition to female. Yes, I was in shock and HURT. It's like mourning the loss of the most important person in your life. 

But, I will NEVER STOP LOVING him or her. It's been a rough week for me... but my bestie "MaryJane" helps Rise above ALL. 

Written and Produced by RadBabyJoe.

                           Lyrics:

Dreams maybe shattered, but my soul still SINGS.

I'm still dancing, I'm still rising.

And let LOVE IN.

Take one more Breath.

If this is the END,
Let's Begin,
Take one more Breath 
And let LOVE IN.

Like the mourning may
Never come along.

BRIDGE:

This could be the Last Song.

We're Still here,
Not for LONG...
Not for LONG...

If this is the END- Hit the Bong Remix

Idle Cellars is a boutique winery located in Sonoma County, California. We are Ben Larks, a teacher and explorer from Los Angeles and Ari Heavner, an entrepreneur from Berkeley. Our shared affinity for world travel and adventure led us to connect in 2006 while working crush in Sonoma. Idle Cellars was born with our first batch of Cabernet Sauvignon reflecting, as in most harmonious relationships, a balanced yin and yang between city dwelling Heavner and country living Larks. We strive to produce an elegantly balanced wine through our grace of art. Our belief is that the essence of winemaking is getting dirty in the vineyard, ensuring the best of Sonoma. We make it from the vine to the bottle through hands-on craftsmanship. Our knowledge and deep understanding of our agricultural surroundings allows us to choose what we believe are the best processes for each varietal of wine. Working together for 17 years now, Ben and Ari’s winemaking bond is stronger than ever, escalating the Idle movement one glass at a time. 
Music is such an important part of our lives and our wine making experience, we decided to start a mix series which is a musical representation of an #idlemoment.
