Alex Attias started his Djing career in 1988, Lausanne – Switzerland, playing house, jazz ,funk and disco classics.
Throughout the late 80’s and early 90’s, he established himself as one of Switzerland’s top Dj’s running his own successful weekly nights The Jackal’s , being booked to play all over the world, and in return booking  International Dj’s to play in Switzerland. Alex was also long-time collaborator for the magazine Vibrations, writing reviews and compiling their series of albums. By 1995, he was ready to break into Electronic music production and  set up the Bel-Air Project, and began attracting attention with their first release “Magik”, which was featured on one of the famous Sourcelab compilations. Bel-Air Project’s next two releases became minor underground cult classics “Jazz with Altitude” and “Dark Jazzor” were both championed by the likes of 4Hero, Gilles Peterson and Stacey Pullen.

His discography includes singles for labels such as People, Ubiquity, Versatile, Neroli, Archive, Compost records as well as remixing Incognito, 4Hero, Ennio Morricone, Sun RA, Art Blakey, Roni Size, Laurent Garnier to name but a few.

In 1997 Alex moved to England to pursue new musical projects, Mustang and Beatless the main sources of his creative output , plus a few sporadic collaborations: Plutonia with Dego from 4 Hero, Catalyst with Greg Boraman and Freedom Soundz with his brother Stephane).
Joining the Goya West London Studios in 2000, Alex set up his new record label, Visions Inc., for which he’s been busy recording with Jessica Lauren, producing tracks for soul singer Vanessa Freeman, Colonel Red and his own Mustang project.

The first Beatless album “Life Mirrors” was released in October 2001 on the American label Ubiquity, featuring tracks recorded in San Francisco with the Daughters from the 70’s band the Sons and Daughters of Lite, with Stones Throw rapper Quasimoto, and the multitalented Colonel Red.
Around the same time, Irma Records from Italy released his “Quiet Moments” compilation, an assortment of chilled and space jazz tracks from the past that is still loved and played by many.

After 8 years in London its only in 2004 that Alex has completed his first solo album under the Mustang moniker on Compost Records (Germany), just before returning to Switzerland.

After a little break of about 3 years, Alex came back with various productions for Rush hour, Planet E, Mule records and a weekly saturday night radio show on the Swiss national channel Couleur 3, plus a monthly Club night LillyGood Party! inviting guests such as Zaf Lovevinyl, Phil Asher, Melik Heartbeatvinyl ..

At the moment Alex is working on his new album and making a collection of singles for his label Visions Recordings and with his brother Stephane they do official edits only on vinyl as LillyGood Party! the same name they use for their parties.

Alex aim is to share good music to good people, spread the good vibes, a have a good dance.

Louise Chen has been cutting her teeth as a DJ and promoter since the start of the 10s and has steadily been building her reputation as a keen record digger and club DJ with impeccable timing.

The Taiwanese-French artist uses her radio shows on NTS, The Lot and Rinse France to showcase the breadth of her taste, deploying a 'soul tearjerkers' special here and a 100 per cent gospel set there, as well as inviting guests like Mafalda and The Patchouli Brothers.

As she showed us last year, she brings only the finest-quality heat to the club with sets that invigorate dancefloors and radiate pure energy. The same goes for her tracks, as her burgeoning production career testifies.

Given that she's one of the most ingenious young DJs in the game, we called her up to contribute to Downtime and she's fulfilled the brief perfectly by...

Pretty much one year ago, I gave in to the urge to pull all my best Gospel records together and make a Gospel Tape to be published right before the holy night. I am not religious albeit spiritual. I am not much into Christmas jams, but I dig the Gospel. And I have my own personal story with Jesus that I might share one day but if you've read Paulo Coelo - The Fifth Mountain, there are certainly paralells. 
Nowadays I believe in the positive ideas of religion that can uplift the spirit. 

But what I am really interested in is Gospel Music. 

These records are like colours to me. Many people are used to experience the same colours over and over again. While there is so much more music to love and fall in love with. Use it as a gateway into other universes. I ve tried that with my twitch series earlier this year. Together we ve just listened through my record collection and we hardly listened to a song twice. I want to shout out Zoe, Jayne, Zuzi, Oria, Angel, Keta, Kelly, Frankie, Josh, Brian, Johnny and many others and Special thanks to Chris and Rob for introducing me to the platform and carrying me through the process. Despite the digital aspect it has been a wonderfully human experience on many levels. 

Thanks for listening and have beautiful holidays, no matter what faith you have or not have. I believe in life as the most precious entity that connects us all. 

All praise and love to my wife Kimberley

Jeremy Underground: State of Rhythm

DJs who grow up with the boogie know to boogie. This is the story of Noshaluv, born and raised in Chicago. She started shopping records with her grandmother and began playing music for friends and family from the age of 8. With roots deeply seeded in Chicago House Muzik and DJ Rush as her big inspiration, at age 13 Nosha was determined to start building her own collection. Years later, we're lucky enough to reap the fruits of this process! The result is an absolutely delicious and energetic hour of disco, boogie and soulful house. Noshaluv's excellent skillset and experience for blending tracks in together makes the time fly while listening. Chi City represent!

Lumberjacks in Hell has been founded in 2010. Intimate Friends followed in 2013. For some people the difference or the need for distinction between these two is quite evident but to give you an idea. Lumberjacks is always 100% for the dance floor, inspired by the music from Chicago and Detroit which is not only reflected in the Artists we release. Intimate Friends is a headier affair. Soul, Hip Hop and House are all fair game. If you check the releases next to each other both labels have a distinct sound. And maybe a certain BPM range. This isn't saying that some of the music couldn't have appeared on either label but somehow it all makes sense to me. Thanks for supporting the music and artists we are releasing and don't hesitate to get in touch! We love to hear from you,

Marcel Vogel, Amsterdam 2017
