🎧 DJ Reado — Decoded Magazine Submission: “Journeys in Sound”

This mix is everything I love about house and electronic music — emotion, groove, and story.  I’m DJ Reado, born from the Liverpool–Manchester club scene — 3 Beat Records, Cream, Bowlers, the Essential Mix era. Those nights taught me that the best DJ sets are journeys: sunrise to sunset, calm to chaos, motion to meaning.

It begins in stillness — waves, vinyl hiss, the hum of life — before unfolding into deep, melodic, and cinematic house. Inspired by artists like Jasper Tygner, Floating Points, David Orin, Nōpi, Synthetra, and Model Man, this sound world blends organic warmth with modern precision — fluttery, choppy, stretched textures that feel like breath and heartbeat woven into rhythm.

I listened to over a thousand tracks, digging through Bandcamp, Rivoli, and small boutique labels to find hidden gems that feel alive — working hard to avoid commercial/known, every inclusion had to serve the story.

The journey moves from ambient introspection to melodic flow, through progressive momentum and sunlight energy, then returns to reflection. It opens by the sea and ends back at the shore — a full-circle experience of motion, memory, and meaning. Think Floating Points at dawn, Tygner’s shimmer at sunrise, Nōpi’s dreamscapes by afternoon, and Model Man’s pure human groove by evening.

Every transition was shaped for flow and feeling — chasing that moment when sound becomes storytelling. For me, DJing has always been about emotion over ego, connection over perfection. I did aim for perfection to my best ability, i hope you enjoy.

Wherever you are — eyes closed, headphones on, or driving at sunset — I hope you feel the same thing I did while making it: that beautiful sense of movement, memory, and meaning.

DJ Reado — Liverpool / Manchester UK — October 2025

Decoded Magazine Mix of the Month October Submission – DJ Reado (Journey Into Sound)

House music lover since around 1988. Stu Allen key 103 Piccadilly Radio. The acid days. The rave days. Quadrant Park. Farnworth Pleasuredome. Legends Raves Warrington. Cream. Liverpool. Life@Bowlers. 3Beat Records on a Saturday. Hot Wax. Pete tong Essential selection. 

All of that was the catalyst. Had some citeonics and crappy. Borrowed belt driven drives for really poor efforts at DJing local youth clubs and occasional private parties. Kept up the music love and bedroom DJing. 

More recently enjoyed bringing the rave to fitness boot camps and the ambient soulful melodic house to Crosby Beach. Sunsets and sunny days been amazing.
