Manu Miran in the mix for @the-carry-nation at the closing party of 2021 at Good Room, Brooklyn

Manu Miran At The Carry Nation Dec 2021

Makadsi at Honey Dijon's New York NY Dec 16, 2022

For my horny mixtape, I selected tracks that make me feel grounded and in my body—music that makes me shake my hips, snap my fingers and throw my hands up in the air. I wanted to take the listener on a journey of embracing their own sexuality, and to bring them face to face with the thoughts and feelings that they might encounter over that process. Sometimes it feels cheeky and flirty, slinky and slippery, aggressive and throbbing. In the end, I hope it makes you feel excited and empowered, and that you’ll listen to it as a way to celebrate yourself, wherever you are on your journey to self-acceptance <3

Everything Comes Back to You is about the cyclical nature of life; friends and lovers, important places or pieces of music, all entering and exiting your orbit over time. Just when you think someone or something is gone for good, there they are again. 

I started compiling this mix in the spring of last year right after my 30th birthday, recorded it the following summer and have sat with it ever since. It was a very emotional and introspective journey in the throes of my Saturn return, while experiencing a lot of uncomfortable growth. I hope it captures the feeling of not being who you were anymore, and discovering who you will be, but that this "new" version of yourself is actually lost somewhere behind or maybe deep inside you, and it's only a matter of time before it orbits its way back around.

It's been very fun to see the tracks pop up in serendipitous and special ways since selecting them last year, only further proving the thesis of the mix. Midland recorded a beautiful mix in 2021 with the same title for Honey Soundsystem's HNYPOT series. Do yourself a favor and go listen to that one too: https://soundcloud.com/dpleated/hnypot-400-midlands-everything-comes-back-to-you-mix

Everything Comes Back to You

Much like his preferences in the bedroom, Spanish boy toy Juguete likes to cover all sides and positions with his music. Fresh from playing BUTT’s launch party at Madrid’s church-themed Skin Club this spring, the born and raised madrileño blessed us with his latest mix. Taking a trip through the full gay music spectrum, steamy progressive tunes make way for a healthy dose of pop vocals and kinky electro-house bangers, with an ending that would please even the most picky circuit queen, naturally. When he’s not behind the decks, Juguete, aka Rubén, throws parties as a promoter with his collective, Girltoy – and yes, he’s 100% single…
