Memories of a friend, rain pouring outside the window, a few cups of tea. This was a tough one to make.......hope there are some bits in here that you enjoy.

Genre hopping, key clashes, only a few beat mixes. Just how she used to like it.

Bleaching Agent: The 'Altered Currents' Mix

Don't Leave Me This Way

Don't Leave Me This Way (Extended Mix)

SmileyGaz has been immersed in the dance music scene since the 1980s, witnessing and contributing to its ever-evolving soundscape. From the raw energy of Chicago House and Detroit Techno to the euphoric pulse of Acid House, it’s the latter that continues to inspire his creative drive and infectious energy behind the decks.
With decades of music appreciation and storytelling under his belt, he crafts intuitive, mood-driven sets that reflect his eclectic taste and deep-rooted music passion. Whether it’s nostalgic classics or exploring fresh sonic textures, he keeps the spirit of the dancefloor alive and thriving.
For him, music is more than just sound—it's emotion, connection, and release. It's that electric moment before the drop, the shared ecstasy when the beat hits, and the unspoken bond among dancers moving as one. His sets capture this kaleidoscope of feeling—moments of joy, reflection, longing, and unity.
SmileyGaz doesn't just play music; he curates journeys—woven with energy, nostalgia, and soul—that speak to the heart of the scene and everyone in it.
This mix is no different……
Peace, love and acid house x

Asterism w/ Andy Blip - Radio Buena Vida 03.10.25

3 Hours in October

Dark Circles have only been releasing music over the past few years, each time with infrequency but serious impact, and always on their own, specially tailored imprint, DC Trax. They also nailed a weird and wonderful remix of Phantasy’s own Future Four (a creative partnership between Erol Alkan and The Emperor Machine founder, Andy Meecham), which has become a go-to selection for the likes of Gerd Janson.

Consisting of the acid-tinged dream team of Iain Bogg and Matthew Waites, both of whom have been DJing for decades, the music of Dark Circles is a case study in the power of acid techno, with shades of Chicago jack and even the vintage days of proper proggy house.

We caught up with DC’s own beloved North-Londoner, Iain Bogg, to talk formative influences, the benefits of running your own imprint and why despite their fruitful studio partnership, we might not be hearing a Dark Circles LP anytime soon >> phantasy-sound.lnk.to/blog
