ocotto Wish for the top spot -- 𝚐𝚎𝚝𝚂𝙲𝚙𝚛𝚘

it's been a while... and we're back with a gentle bang a.k.a. a mix of the amazing Sanky @sankywashere!! 
Many of you will have had the pleasure to dive into his selections at other sites. Being a fan for a good while I dared to ask him for a mix and now we installed a window to his universe here at the bin too! As I always enjoyed the variety and finesse of his mixes I asked for his musical background and Sanky was so nice to share this with us: 
"My mother was a piano teacher and sometimes practiced with various classical musicians who were playing at city hall so the house almost always had strange, orchestral sounds emanating from the dusty front room. I can't play a note of piano as my hands don't seem to want to work together as 10 fingers but I can play some wind instruments and loved learning the trumpet, these strange organic sounds are something that I now realize feature heavily when out looking for records, weird sounds seem to mean as much as beautiful lyrics these days. I also think the varied pace of classical from Adagio all up to Presto might have influenced me more than I thought too. I've never really understood music in terms of bpm's but more on feeling. I'm 51 and I feel really lucky to grow up in a pre internet world on rare soul and jazz, boogie, soundtracks, samples and hip hop which provided another view of how incredibly different music really can be. Hearing Colin Curtis screaming down the mic at age 15 playing Margie Evans “Waterfalls” or watching David Mancuso drop “Whole Lotta Love” after Tamiko Jones “Can’t Live Without Your Love’ at 6pm in the afternoon and watch people lose their minds are things I feel truly lucky to have witnessed, genius at work for sure.
 
I just still look out for the oddness, especially on 7” as there is still so much undiscovered music there but also something that sounds familiar even when it’s not. I live in Mexico now and again due to what I hear day to day in the street (not just necessarily music) changes what I collect, the feeling of life here is softer and slower so this mix might have a piece of that in it. I hope you listen to the mix all the way through in a comfortable place you feel happy to be in. It has some of my most favorite records I play over and over…big love.

Let me know if you want to know what any of the tracks are and thanks to the main man Basso who’s been an inspiration for years. 

Cocktails on the beach for all…x

Dedicated to My Mother Kate. RIP."

THANKS SO MUCH SANKY!!!

Balearic Disorder Nr. 54 (26/07/24)

Viscera podcast 120 comes flying in from the amazing Megan Leo!

"Hailing from Sunderland and now based in London, Megan Leo is a dedicated digger, music producer and founder. Her tribal and balearic sound is rooted in chug, cosmic and italo, through to progressive house, burned-out trance and rock inspired electronica.

As a DJ, she has gained a reputation as a versatile selector who “keeps it interesting” and builds up from slower, chuggy grooves to more uptempo; frequently playing extended warm up and all night long sets. Her taste and ability to interpret mood has led to residencies at Me Me Me, Midnight People and Cafe 1001, as well as multiple appearances at the likes of fabric, The Cause and Pikes.

As a founder, Megan Leo has her own party and radio show, Swirl, which champions the balearic spirit right in central London. Through Swirl, Leo hosts and performs at monthly, intimate parties at The Social in Soho alongside residents, Rosy Ross and Stella Z. Swirl brings together like minded
communities and creates opportunities for emerging artists, as well as sharing sounds through Swirl’s monthly show on Threads Radio.

As a producer, Megan Leo released her debut EP on Me Me Me in 2023. The EP features two tracks, showcasing the more uptempo side of her musical palette; both tracks tell a story, combining cool melodies, contrasting feelings and “weaving in a multitude of elements that should feel overwhelming
but never do - instead they’ll be driving you to hit replay over and over again to identify each one”."

Get your dancing shoes on, this one's a real groover.
