Starr Power Lunch Hour Episodes

Summer vibes from the 90s combined with a classic piano melody while rhythmic arpeggios drive the groove forward. The energy keeps building with the soulful vocal hook that rides with you until the end of time!

Hope you enjoy x SWAY.

Having his records supported by anyone and everyone from John Summit, Diplo, Lee Foss, CID, ALOK, Martin Garrix, ACRAZE, Alesso - the list just doesn't end, Darren After has been absolutely taking the scene by storm all from his humble bedroom in Scotland.

"DWM" is an electrifying high octane masterpiece. Combining the best of contemporary tech house with nostalgic undertones of old-school electro, this track offers an exhilarating fusion that's been destroying dance floors. Cloverdale first premiered it at the Brooklyn Mirage and since its been a staple in every set, from Day Trip, to EDC Vegas to Ubbi Dubbi.

British powerhouse duo Leftwing : Kody make their introduction to the ABODE imprint this August, joining forces with DJ and producer, Tomash for their debut outing on the label; ‘Raise Your Hands’. Renowned for their skills in the studio as well as the booth, Leftwing : Kody have long established themselves as one of the most successful acts in recent years, with releases on respected labels including Toolroom, Repopulate Mars, REALM, Armada Subjekt, Rinse and Circus, to name a few.

Tomash joins the duo hot off the heels of his debut release on Sleazy Deep which has already broken into the Top 20 charts on Beatport. ‘Raise Your Hands’ combines both artists signature sound, utilising organic drum grooves, a grooving low-end underpinning hooky vocal cuts, rave influenced melodies and popping percussion adding energy to the rhythm with exciting builds throughout, resulting in a dancefloor weapon, perfect for the club.

Music In My Mind

Starr Power Lunch Hour - Ep. 38
Track List Below ⬇️

Hey! Welcome back to the best hour of your week, the Starr Power Lunch Hour show. Jam packed with the newest house music and tech house out right now, this is the spot for those After Hours feels without having to leave your house! 

Tried something different this week and live streamed for the first time! I actually took the live version down but this is the recording of it. I have a lot to figure out still to live stream but it was a lot of fun. I typically pick the tracks out ahead of time but since I just did this as a stream, I just ran through the USB stick from the last 4 or 5 episodes of the show. Managed to still land on 15 tracks, which if kind of impressive if I do say so myself.

Don't forget  as well that all month I'm riding my bike to raise money for Children's Cancer Research. Going for 200 miles and $2500. I'm 1/2 way there in both miles and money so far. There's a link below if you want to support!
