We are back with March's edition and Loft Sessions resident Jay Lewis. This mix features a blend of all the flavours Jay's been digging old & new. I've got a tasty little Q&A which can also be read below ⬇️

Who are you?

My name is Jay Lewis, an Aerospace Engineer from Stourbridge. My passions are music, work, football and fitness. 

Who inspires you?

One of my biggest inspirations will be a surprise for most, but Ernest is at the top of my list. Easily one of the best, if not best DJ I have seen live, and yet most probably haven’t heard of him!
Others are St. Germain, PINDER, Sweely & Shonky. 
St Germain combines the fundamentals of house and Jazz perfectly, two genres that I adore. I love that Nathan has his PINDER alias to venture into another genre, both genres are ones I love! Sweely may as-well drop on a purple wizards gown when playing because the guys ability to play live is unreal, the wizard. And as for Shonky, someone needs to show that fella the naughty step because his sets are just damn RUDE.

What is your sound?

Over the last year since parties returned in July, I have really managed to hone in on my sound. Minimal/Romin is my main genre, but I just can’t help buying UKG & certain house records. 
I feel very fortunate that I have the ability and collection to sway through these genres when I want at home. It also gives me the scope to also vary my set when playing live. 

When did you start your journey?

2016 I got my first serato powered plug-in decks. The reason being was I constantly listened to House/Tech House at the time, so I thought why not play?
About a year later I invested in a XDJ-RX & Rokit 5’s, as I knew I wanted to start playing live music. From there, over a few years I started to buy turntables and a few records. The addiction became real and now I have around 550 records. 

Where are you located and where do you wanna go?

I am local to Birmingham. This is where I have played the majority of my bookings. I would love to be able to establish myself in the scene, but I know there is some great talent out there so I know it is neigh impossible to ‘make-it’, but I happy with whatever happens with my music.

Why is music important to you?

Most people people work hard, whether that be part-time or full-time and music is an escapism from normal life, especially on the dance floor. This also applies to me. And that is just listening to music.
DJing live is a mad feeling, being able to share some really under-heard records and to see the reaction from the crowd is satisfying. 
If I can show a room full of people at least one record they didn’t know they wanted to hear, then I am satisfied with my performance.

Introducing Kesh Loi. A front runner in a new generation of production prodigies. Based in the centre of the colourful, Midland House Music scene, Kesh not only thrives but has a hand in shaping the unique, party starting sound being found in his area. Focused on piecing together elements from a wide range of genres to create a sound that would be welcomed on almost any dance floor, Kesh has taken inspiration from not only a wide range of artists, but a plethora of situations and events that have made his journey through music unique.

Kesh has focused his releases on young, exciting labels such as Friktion, Orange Records and Abstrakt Music whilst not missing out on opportunities to add his name to the roster of more experienced labels such as Hungarian Hot Wax. His EP’s have a reputation of smashing the charts, with his first solo EP ‘Peach’ on LuvRhythm Records breaking into the top 10 global releases and his most recent release ‘Conga Bonga’ on Friktion storming the Minimal / Deep Tech Releases charts, reaching #9.

Kesh’s sound is not only unique in its energy, but unique in its creation. Constructed through years of hard work in the studio and memories fashioned on a number of dance floors, Kesh can safely say that his music is not only individual to himself but it sure to get a reaction from any crowd he plays to. Taking elements from UKG, 90’s House and Electro, Kesh has distinguished himself as none other then a certified party starter and in the ever-changing sound of house music, he stays true to making music that almost anyone can dance to.

His sets are also nothing to sleep on, forming journeys that span for as long as he is allowed to play. Defying genre boundaries, the only things consistent in Kesh’s sets are the high octane, high energy vibe and the growl of a 90’s influenced bassline.
