J.Handel & Psuedosimian @ Subtle Sol Garden Party LV 05.23.2021 🎶Downtempo House🎶

Recorded live at Subtle Sol's re-opening event on the patio of Peyote in Downtown Las Vegas on 10.10.21. 

We shared this night with our good friend ITAI ! Always a pleasure to have him out especially for this special occasion.

Fun fact* Subtle Sol has hosted ITAI 4 times at 4 different venues ;) Thought that was kinda cool.

Subtle Sol 10.10.21 w/ ITAI - Pseudosimian & J.Handel

Pseudosimian and I had so much fun during this final set of 2022 with live sax by Sojourner and vocal by Trice Be. The live element always adds such a robust flavor to the environment which is hard to recreate when listening back. But i loved this night so much and the energy leading up to the end of the year that I couldn't not post it :) The set starts with a half hour of myself then the next by Pseudosimian, from there it's a quadfectca of family love! 

To finish out the night we had my friend Adrian aka Magician On Duty as our special guest to close out the evening <3 Much love to MOD for coming a day early out toVegas to groove with us! This was his 3rd Subtle Sol performance, and certainly not his last ;)

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Into The Void Festival, Utah - 10.22.22 🎶Daytime Downtempo | Organic🎶

This one felt really good to play as I haven't played a full set in this style in a while <3

Downtempo House is the genre that I feel most at home DJing and the alignment was certainly felt during this live recording for my friends YouTube project "HouseGuest Radio."

This set will be available to watch on YouTube in a few weeks.

I will post the link here when its ready!

SubtleCast 003 - J.Handel - 04.05.2018

Recorded Live at @serenity Gathering 2018 on Saturday from 11:30am-1pm at the New Moon Stage.

Serenity Gathering was a complete recharge of my soul ❤️ the grounds at Woodward Reservoir were absolutely gorgeous, the festival itself was perfect size both geographically and in attendance.

I saw little to no trash on the ground the entire weekend, and the porto-potties were pristine each use👌🏽

I had so many meaningful and deep conversations with countless people. Everyone I met was in control and looking out for one another. This feeling of unity and community is missing from many festivals these days, blanketed by the overselling of tickets and overuse of substances.

The variety of tasteful music was extremely refreshing and brought people from many sides of the music spectrum together in unison.

I did miss having a reunion with so many friends at Desert Hearts , this was the only downside, and I’m happy you all had an amazing weekend as well ✨ but as far as feeling spiritually full-filled after a festival I know Serenity Gathering was the best choice for what my soul needed and I’m truly blessed for all the experiences of the weekend and the amazing new family I’ve acquired 💜

Sonic Cocktails 073 - J.Handel

Recorded live on November 29, 2018 at Subtle Sol's 2018 Finale.

This recording is the opening set by Creator, Curator, & Resident J.Handel.

I couldn't think of a more beautiful way to close out 2+ years of immersive music, infectious vibes, connectivity, and LOVE. I deeply thank everyone who attended and contributed to Subtle Sol on this night and any other night before. Without your individual contributions Subtle Sol wouldn't have been able to flourish as it did over the past two and a half year.  Each of you helped create a safe, conscious, and welcoming home to many.

I can't wait to share the next chapter of Subtle Sol with all of you as it returns in a big way THIS SUMMER <3

Stay tuned for upcoming events as well as a new SubtleCast released every other Tuesday! 

I hope you enjoy SubtleCast 010 feat. J.Handel

SubtleCast 010 - J.Handel - 11.29.2018 [2018 Finale]

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series!

On this week's editions we welcome @j-handel

Born in San Diego, Jordan Handel, aka J.Handel, has always been an avid collector of music and a concert enthusiast. But it wasn’t until being exposed to CDJs by a life-long friend in 2010 after submerging himself in the LA rave scene the year previous that he found an entirely new way to interact with music. Mixing became an immediate addiction and since has only strengthened his passion for sharing music.

Whether playing 95 or 125 BPM J.Handel's well-curated DJ sets are always fine-tuned to complement the current environment, energy, and time slot. Offering a unique blend of organic sounds and groovy basslines with textural influences from progressive and electronica.

His event "Subtle Sol," established in 2016, will be hosting a series of four events in LA this summer starting June 28th. This downtempo event focuses on providing a uniquely immersive experience, merging open minded beliefs, cultured palates, and widespread backgrounds. For more info visit www.subtlesolexperience.com 

We are happy to welcome him to our family, and we hope you enjoy this mix as much as we do!

JetSetRadio #13 J.Handel

This was the first Subtle Sol event I hosted in Vegas since June 2018. It was put on in collaboration with Garden Party LV who hosts different music collectives every Saturday night at Park On Fremont smack dab in the middle of Downtown Las Vegas. It was a pleasure decorating the beautiful back patio of Park On Fremont and offering downtempo, midtempo, & deep grooves for the city I call home. This event occured just before the quarantine was put in place so it was nice to offer one last night of music before we became confined to our homes. 

I hope this recording from that night finds you well as you pass this interesting time in our world <3 

Stay positive, stay active, stay focused. This too shall pass, and when it does I have optimism that we will see the world in a new light, with greater respect for it and the people around us. 

I will be doing occasional live steams during the quarantine. 
to stay up to date with those follow my Instagram page @j_handel .

J.Handel @ Subtle Sol Garden Party LV - 03.14.2020

Recorded live on March 30, 2020 as part of a weekly live stream every Tuesday afternoon on my Twitch account ( Twitch.tv/j_handel ). This was originally a 7.5 hour session but had to chop it down to fit the max length of 6.75 hours that soundcloud allows. 

Tune in to my Twitch each week as I share new finds as well as favorites from my collection over the year.

Hope you enjoy this long journey of sounds and feels <3

Stay safe out there!

J's Quaranstream #2 "Late Morning Stretch"

It was a pleasure to have a wide-open lounge of friends and new faces in the center of Area 15 Las Vegas for this 5 hour set. Starting with organic downtempo to Electronica to a little bass section 3 hours in, finishing with deep melodic house 😌 hope you enjoy the listen as much as I enjoyed playing it!

Recorded live on October 24, 2020 at Las Vegas's new immersive art warehouse Area 15. The center bar Oddwood features a 25 foot LED interactive maple tree, light fixtures by Hybycozo, and a great hang in the middle of all the action.

BIO:

Originating from the sun-kissed shores of San Diego, Jordan Handel, aka J.Handel, is the product of the vibrant coastal culture that shaped his journey into the immersive realm of DJing in 2010. Over the span of 13+ years, J.Handel’s steadfast commitment to delivering perfectly tailored sonic experiences across diverse environments contributes to the continual refinement of the way he shares music. His deepest passion and artistic expression exists in the artful skill of harmoniously synchronizing the energy of the present surroundings with carefully chosen music, prioritizing the listeners experience above all.

Since 2015, he has called Las Vegas home, and sustains a versatile presence through his event ventures and collaborative efforts. His event company, Subtle Sol, founded in 2016, is Vegas’ premiere gathering for Downtempo House Music, while Subtle Bass, hosted at AREA15, is an outlet for deep dubstep and bass music. Both events hold the intention of self-expression and cultivating community, providing a platform for local artists to paint, perform, showcase, and sell their personal creations.

Emerging out of 2020, J saw immense personal and communal importance in wellness & self-care. Since then, he has been actively collaborating and crafting ongoing spiritual gatherings directed toward elevating collective consciousness and cultivating community around somatic sounds and healthy lifestyle practices.

Built upon the foundation of DJing. J.Handel assumes a myriad of roles within the music industry, embodying positions such as Event Producer, Facilitator, Curator, Designer, and Sound Healer. In addition to his diverse contributions, Jordan’s cornerstone resides in his commitment to superior quality and humble professionalism. No matter where life may take him, he will always find a way to pursue his passion and purpose in music.
