New mix comes from Darshan Jesrani !

Based in Brooklyn, we dare to say Darshan is a true NYC legend with more than 25 years of djing and producing quality music under many aliases. 

You all know, or should, the cult Darshan's project “Metro Area” on Environ, with his teammate Morgan Geist, who captured the very best of the crossover between house music and disco.
In solo, he produced records as Darshan Jesrani, Cylinder, Funn City or Acronym City. He's also part of Siren alongside Dennis Kane with many releases on Compost Records. Can't name all the projects and collaborations...
He also made plenty of remixes for the likes of Hugh Masekela, Tracey Thorn (Everything But The Girl) , Escort, Mock & Toof etc etc...
He also runs his own Startree label since 2013.
But enough blabla and name dropping, let the music talk !

Danny McLewin aka Skyrager is one of my favorite people on the planet. His ability to dig out rare unheard of bangers and drop them hot on the dance floor sums up all the reasons we love to go out. Based out of England, Danny travels the world spreading love through music with the group Psychemagik and under his solo moniker Skyrager. An avid record collector and dealer, I'm always so excited to comb through all his mixes. Before After Hours takes you on a blissful musical odyssey. From demented dubbed out synth reggae jams, Krautrock, Italo, Arabic disco and beyond, this mix has it all. Enjoy friends x

Private Panther

DJ, producer and record collector Trujillo’s trajectory from Venezuela to Berlin is as colourful as his music. His well-honed sense of soul, disco and tropical 80s house rhythms comes paired with an unparalleled devotion to digging up dusty dance floor heat. 

Trujillo grew up in Merida, Venezuela, where records were a part of daily family life. His grandfather opened the city's first modern art museum and had a longstanding tradition of playing classical music everyday at lunchtime. His father had a vast collection of 60s and 70s rock and gifted Trujillo his first record when he was five years old and he’s never looked back. 

He wrote some words about his mix:

“During the last few months, I’ve been touring paradise islands in the Caribbean. Every day, I used to go to shell beach, a place with a magic view, just the perfect spot for watching the sunset and the waves dancing to the rhythm of my playlists, while dreaming to come back playing for crowds. On my return to Berlin, I decided to put together all these musical memories in a mix which I called Dreamwaves. When my good friend and fellow digger Danny asked me to join the exquisite Idle Cellar’s podcast series, I thought this would be the perfect summer soundtrack for enjoy a good glass of wine whilst watching the sunset.” 

Enjoy friends xx

Danish music connoisseur Mike Salta is a man of many talents. Whether he’s acting as musician, DJ, record producer, radio broadcaster, remixer or composer, Mike Salta always strives to create musical magic. Operating in a sphere where time and genre is nothing and vibe is everything, and with 35+ years of experience from performances and entrepreneurship all over the world, Salta has released records on an array of highly regarded labels including NuNorthern Soul, Music For Dreams, Café Del Mar and Claremont 56. Keep a look out for Mike Salta's 12" remix of 'City Lights' by Flashbaxx which is due out on NuNorthern Soul this spring. He also has a single called 'Espalmador' coming out on Music For Dreams in March/April and a full length album due for release in the summer.

Mike Salta has delivered an outstanding mix for the series. Recorded in 2022, his thoughtful selections are a perfect balance of old and new. There’s no shortage of gold on here, such as Suso Saiz' ambient masterpiece ‘Un Humbro Oscuro’. Back in 2016 Music From Memory licensed and made this track available on both vinyl and digital formats for the first time. Quincy Jones smooth jazz-funk classic 'Velas', off his 1981 three-times Grammy Award winning LP The Dude. Philippe Royan’s blissed-out ‘Cap Malheureux‘, the instrumental B-side of a super-rare 7” from 1990. Absolutely gorgeous record. As for some of the newer material represented here, there's Simon Mills' brilliantly emotive track 'Coco', a digital/Bandcamp exclusive from 2020 which I'm hoping will get a physical release at some point. Closing the mix is Pablo Color's lovely guitar noodle 'El Abrazor' from his latest (at time of writing) LP Hora Azul, released in 2021. A big thanks to Mike Salta for taking the time to record this mix.
