Pabels at Gop Tun Festival 2025

DJ Zaffa is a Venice-based DJ and selector with over two decades of experience in the underground music scene. Starting out at just 15, he was raised on a steady diet of funk, soul, and disco — thanks to a family immersed in nightlife and crate-digging culture. His sets reflect that upbringing: eclectic, groove-driven, and rooted in a deep appreciation for music across decades. Zaffa weaves together jazz-funk, boogie, ‘80s synth sounds, early house, and contemporary shades of techno and electronica, building sets that feel both nostalgic and forward-thinking. A skilled digger and thoughtful curator, he approaches DJing as a storytelling craft — prioritizing flow, energy, and mood over flashy transitions or obvious hits.

Beyond clubs, Zaffa is active in radio and podcast culture, notably through his series “Laguna Waves,” which explores underground and alternative sounds with guests like Robert Babicz. He has performed across Italy and played internationally with gigs in cities like London, Paris, or Zurich, steadily building a reputation for authenticity and musical depth. His selections have also been featured on platforms such as My Analog Journal (UK) or Sacré Radio (France).

East Londoner Max Sinàl has been playing and releasing music under various names since starting out on pirate radio 25 years ago.

Since then he's done the lot - regular slots at Fabric, Koko, Space Ibiza and Potato Head Bali to name a few, not to mention Glastonbury, We Out Here, Bestival, Secret Garden Party and many more.  Max is also half of the live duo 2fox who have surpassed 20 million Spotify streams and will soon be sharing new remixes from names as illustrious as Louie Vega, Soul Clap and Tommy Musto.

After Soul Quest Records - a label he co-founded with two friends - released his 'Intentions' track as part of the 'Maintain Altitude' six track V/A EP.  In its original guise, it was the result of a joint musical adventure from Sinal, producer and longtime collaborator Kingcrowney and vocalist Liv East. 

The track returns this week with a slew of top remixes from Frits Wentink, JT Donaldson and Flying Moth, with a live version to boot, and to celebrate its imminent arrival he's taken to the decks to roll out an exclusive mix for Juno Daily

Pike's House Party – July 19, 2025 – South Orange, NJ

After living in Vietnam for two and a half years, I've been missing Manchester a lot, so I took a break from producing the atmospheric, futuristic techno I'm vibing with at the moment and put together this four-and-a-half-hour mix of my favourite records to play in the city.

When selecting records for this, it was an explicit rule that I’d had memorable experiences playing them in Manchester, from my residency at Sankeys and other smaller venues across the city, like Joshua Brooks, Hidden, South, Deaf Institute, Sound Control, Subspace and more. I wanted to make sure the vibe was 100% something that would work on a MCR dancefloor; all DJs all agree there is a unique energy to Manchester crowds. 

I programmed the mix the way I felt a night should progress - starting with deep, slow records, gradually building into a peak moment with more intense and energetic tracks, before easing the energy into an emotional finish as the night fades. No sudden moves and dramatic mood/bpm shifts. For me, that always seems to be a magic formula, especially in Manchester in those times, witnessed from countless hours on both sides of the decks.

Genre-wise, it's made up of deep house, Chicago house, US house, some techno-y stuff, acid, anything I felt had 100% Manchester energy and enjoyed a good few moments with.

Full track list is in the comments, but to highlight some records with special memories for MCR, to begin, I choose the Mike Dunn record God Made Me Phunky, which is just a 1000% MCR classic track! Dionne – Back On The Planet never grows old; even listening right now it sounds brand new. I could be here all day with these to be honest, but also Jacob Korn – You & Me... damn, nostalgia levels 999 on that one. Armante – Love Me Or Leave Me (F.O.S. Underground Mix) used to get a lot of plays and always brought the peak time energy – dark evil organ slammer! I also played Theo Parrish - Heal Yourself And Move first track in every single warm up set, so that would have been over a hundred plays or something - I felt it gently warmed up the soundsystem ready for the later chaos.

Notable other records: Brothers Vibe – Can U Feel It?, Kikumoto Allstars – Last Train To Chi-Town, Rocky Jones - The Choice Of New Generation. Ah, damn, it’s all flooding back to me. Lastly, I have to shout out Music Freaks – Tribal Trance (Tribal Mix) as that is the record I played out the most (other than HYAM ofc) - the bassline used to sound so sick on the Sankeys basement Phazon system, and it had a lot of pressure for a slower track, so another one for the warm-up sets, listening to the track right now, it kind of doesn’t make sense on headphones. Definitely one to be experienced on a club system with 1250 Manchester heads two-stepping, red strip lights and a low ceiling.
