Mixes

Daytimers sat in for Ahadadream this month, with members Michael Diamond and Temujin taking over hosting duties. Michael is in the mix for the first hour running everything from jazz to jungle. Temujin is at the helm for the second with a bag full of UK bass.

Daytimers w/ Michael Diamond & Temujin - August 2021

Having recently been acclaimed by Gilles Peterson as one of his 'future bubblers' Michael Diamond has now announced the release of a debut LP. The UK based musician draws upon an array of enigmatic influences - channeling inspiration from the underground electronic music circuit as well as from jazz, hip hop and the spaces in between.

When we asked him to record this mixtape, we weren't sure which way he might choose to go. This could have been an all out club affair but what we received is remarkably more abstract and conceptual offering a unique perspective into the workings of a promising young musician.

Phonica Records Takeover: Michael Diamond - 16 December 2024

The multifaceted talent Michael Diamond steps up for the next edition to our Off The Record mix series with a selection of bass driven leftfield club sounds. Off the back of his excellent EP "Placid Wakefulness" on his own Vasuki Sound imprint, which closed out the artists 2024 to much critical acclaim, we reached out to the South East Londoner for a mix. With a sound that draws elements which would stretch from  the likes of Music From Memory all the way to Hessle Audio Michael has deemed himself unique in production but also very much so in his DJ sets. With a massively expansive taste we knew he would be a perfect edition to Off The Record. With a more club focused mix delving into the UK techy and bass vibe it gives us an example of Michael Diamond at peak time. We had a brief chat with Michael about his mix and what he has coming up in 2025!
