From hiatus, Fair Shake has returned to tell the tale of a city’s spirit through the eyes of dear friend, Lazy Suzan. A saviour selector, she sways us with a sermon, lifts us up, beats our celestial heart. This mix is full of discrete grooves and complex rhythm, exploration of the aural and movement towards the light. So on this day of rest, Bless yourself and tune in.

Deity to the dancer,
Bodies in motion
Perscussive psalms, sound escapes
Deep in the recess of rhythm

Happy 2025 to all the Idlers out there! We're back with our first mix missive of the year - and it's a doozy. When it comes to edit records, so much has already been done. These London-based boys decided to ditch the well-trod paths of Disco, Boogie & Soul to dive headfirst into the devil's maw that is American Rock & Country music, making some of the best we’d heard in awhile, subtly turning some of the stodgiest 60's & 70's shitkicker jams into glorious glitterball anthems. The fact that they're kickass DJ's to boot made this decision a no-brainer! Ladies & germs, please welcome to the Idle Cellars Mix Series stable - Flying Mojito Bros! These two fine gents were extremely gracious - if not eager! - to tackle the Idle Cellars brief and we all have hit the jackpot. Presenting "Americana Pacifica" - we would call it Balearica re-imagined through the lens of US AOR, soft rock, country and more. Accompanying the mix is this message from FMB:

Rugged, saline guitar jams and sea-smoothed rock – from really recent finds to long-cherished shoreline treasures once popped in our pockets for another day, another day. Well – yesterday's mañana has come. Reach for your nearest Idle Cellars cuvées, grab your grampa's corkscrew, hit the cove barefoot and let the 'super-space-age seventies' pass on by while we linger, carefree.

Here we go - stretch out, grab a glass and press play! See you next time! 

@flying-mojito-bros - follow them!

Guests are encouraged to explore a bit further into their collections with an opportunity to step away from the dance floor if they desire.

For the forty first episode we invite Jay White, GOT Music alumni back again, he previously put together Episode 41, this time approaching things from a slightly different angle. I really enjoy JAy's mixes, they more often than not take me down a rabbit hole of new labels and producers that I had not come across and this mix is no different.

The mix is Slow Life Initialising, in his words is the process of embracing a lifestyle that emphasises a more intentional and deliberate approach to daily life, focusing on quality over quantity and slowing down to appreciate the present moment.

I  agree that the mix is embodies this concept, I've had a great couple of listens, while busy with my work day and also will full focus and attention on the speakers. I enjoyed the latter much more and encourage you to do the same. 

As always, turn it up lock in and enjoy the music!
