We're very excited to bring you the second instalment of The Sunrise Mixtapes, and our first guest-mix: None other than Mr Phil Mison! 

A chance meeting with José Padilla at London's Milk Bar lead to a two-season DJ residency at the iconic Café Del Mar in Ibiza in the mid nineties. Phil continues to produce and tour the world. A true champion of the Balearic scene, we were thrilled that he said Yes when we reached out to ask if he’d like to contribute to the series, especially seeing as the mix he’s submitted is a very special live recording of a set he did at the Café Del Mar back in August 1994. It’s a simply gorgeous selection of white-Isle classics and oddities, including ‘Mediterranean Dream’ by Shahin & Sepehr, ‘Voodoo Jammin’ by Dancing Fantasy and ‘Yawn Yawn Yawn’ by Sth Notional, just to mention a handful as there are so many great records in this mix - Seminal music from the golden age of chill. 

A big thanks to Phil Mison for letting us have this wonderful mix in the series, and a special thanks to Paul Byrne @ Test Pressing

Guided by curiosity and a love for musical discovery, Balearic Banana open up their bags of high grade for this edition. Known for their fine taste and genre-blurring sets, Berlin based duo weave worldly treats around a strong Brazilian thread for this mix. The blend reflects their open-eared approach, where anything goes as long as it fits the feeling. Perfectly suited for a warm summer night, this one invites you to kick back and float off into the haze.

Mix of the Week #589: Hiatt DB - Chrome Lover

Glaz-go Skills!

Max Hammer @maxhammur delivers a tip-top recording for MIX035​, a sun-drenched blend of boogie-disco juice that glides between eras and continents with real flair. No fancy flips, just straight-up entertaining grooves served as they were meant to be heard ​, and like the man himself, full of character​.

Now based in Naarm/Melbourne, Max (a Glaswegian native) is the co-organiser of SANGAM, a fresh monthly celebration of sound, culture, and style ​that's hosted in some of the city’s most ridiculously cool and intimate venues. Influenced by early sound system sessions at The 78, late nights at Le Cheetah, and more, he brings with him a slice of Glasgow’s underground spirit.

This mix is steeped in that same energy​...think off-peak mystical grooviness that feels both nostalgic and new. From the driving pulse of Tabou Combo’s “Let’s Do The Groove”, to the smoky uplift of Eloise Whitaker’s “I Will Fight”, Max digs with heart, jumping borders with ease.

Proper inspiring stuff from the man.

Sebastian Grätz, based in Hamburg, Germany, and known professionally as Basso, is the man behind Growing Bin Records.
Growing Bin was set up in 2007 as a music blog before evolving into an online record store in 2012, with the offshoot micro-label Growing Bin Records launching the following year. The blog initially existed to catalogue Basso's broad musical tastes, today Growing Bin is very much in the business of selling records; From the ultra-rare and special interests to generally curious finds.

A core appeal of Growing Bin is that the material is handpicked according to, and solely for one man's esoteric tastes. There is no chasing of trends; If Basso likes it, he'll sell it. Another of the shop's unique traits is its copywriting; Growing Bin's website is a marvel with musical categories including Cocktails By The Pool, Cheap Magic and Dancing For Mental Health, breaking down into subcategories such as Embarrassing Mindblowingness, Never Leave The Bag and many more.

Anyway, over to the mix. As expected, Basso has delivered a wonderfully eclectic selection of records. 
We'd like to mention a few of his inclusions; 'La Bimini' by Spunk, a breezy P-funk monster if ever there was one, off their 1981 LP Tighten It Up, tight as f**k indeed! Remaining in Jazz-funk territory, Underground Canopy & Paloma Paloma's deep and soulful 'Même Heure Même Endroit', B-side of a 7" single from 2023, is just sublime. The HaHa Sounds Collective version of Marker Starling's 'Silk Rock', as championed by Gilles Peterson on his Worldwide FM radio show, is an absolutely stellar piece of music and arguably one of the strongest releases of 2020. Taken from her 1976 LP Più, Ornella Vanoni's moody 'Tu Chi Sei?' (underscored by a beat suspiciously reminiscent of a certain Paul Simon record) is another timeless inclusion here. 
A big thanks to Basso for taking the time to record this fantastic mix for the series.
