10K Gift #2: Derek - Station Codes

As a thank you for helping me reach 10K followers, I’m sharing music and memories; gifts from the journey so far.

This is my way of expressing gratitude and giving something back: unreleased tracks, shared moments, and stories from the dancefloors, studios, and friendships that shaped it all.

It’s a reminder of how much we’ve built together through sound...

One night I’ll never forget: a starry evening on Balearia vibes, dancing for hours to Derek at Ibiza Underground. His mixing had us smiling nonstop. It was one of those nights where time flies, you run into old friends, and the music navigates. It was a gift to hear his set, which stood out as a rare gem on the island in 2023.

Then there’s Sunwaves, always a reunion. We catch up, share tunes, reflect, reset. Every year, there’s a lightness when we cross paths, a shared understanding through music.

Beyond the decks, Derek has been behind so many of my video projects mixing and mastering the audio so the storytelling can be impactful. Having a skilled engineer and artist by my side has elevated the quality of what I share, and I’m endlessly grateful for that.

So of course, it’s only natural he’s part of this compilation. The common thread amongst friends. Thank you, D. 💛
