Duddy D is poised to establish an unmatched place in music and culture. As you listen to his first album, you will begin to see true energy exposed. Duddy D expounds the spirit of the quantum model rotating between the inner and outer extremes, constructing an energetic experience like no other. Duddy D knows there is an audience with needs that are not currently being met and he is here to change that. The more feedback he receives from the haters and fans alike, the more music he produces. It’s awkward, it’s fun, it satisfies that which has been lacking up until now. Like no other, always raw, never edited, enjoy you some Duddy D.

The Feeling Flow mix series asks DJs to share a recording of a mix of tunes that gives a personal insight into their go to tracks for feeling good and getting into the flow. 

There are no rules for feeling flow, the mix could be a selection of the music DJs may listen to at home during isolation to create a soothing and positive mood, a collection of favourite love songs, uplifting club anthems or an unexpected genre offering. It could be a recording from a previous gig, home session or live stream where all was flowing as an expression what a DJ loves the most - feeling good and being in flow! 

The aim of the series is to provide a platform for DJs to offer something personal and possibly different and unexpected during these strange times and also to draw attention to coming together to feel good and help others during the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond. 

Each mix upload will include a link to donate to the *FOOD FLOW* charity, providing food packs from local farms in the Western Cape to communities and families in need. We ask listeners to donate voluntarily to the cause.

The mix series will be uploaded to the Feeling Flow SoundCloud with personalized artwork for each DJ provided by Luke Stroebel. You just need to supply an image of yourself to go into the artwork - a mandala acting as a frame giving a nod to plants and growth. 

If this is something that resonates with you and you would like to contribute a mix or if you have any questions please get in touch. 

The mix series will go live later this week once we get the first 3 mixes in to be able to upload to the SoundCloud page. You can submit a mix anytime from now going forward as we hope to continue to raise funds beyond the lockdown. Ideally it would be great to capitalize on the intense amount of time people are spending on social media and listening to music to get as much awareness and focus on the cause we are supporting. As this is a Cape Town based initiative we will be reaching out to local SA DJs primarily but the invitation is open to all internationals of course - please feel free to forward to anyone you think might be interested to donate a mix.

FEELING FLOW - WE RISE BY LIFTING OTHERS

His passion for Dance Music began in early 90s Devon, whilst sampling the delights of the free party scene that was kicking off in and around the West Country. Meeting in car parks, trying to find a phone box to call for directions and dancing in fields until the sun came up. Nights in clubs such as Plymouth Warehouse, Pawlett Manor, the Cavern and Tube were also enjoyed during the 90s.

He learnt the art of mixing on a set of battered, second-hand 1210s, teaching himself the craft, developing his style and filling up his record box with deep house from record labels such as Bomba, Warp, Shindig, DiY and UMM to name just a few.

 A move was made to Bristol, which opened up a wealth of new musical inspiration at iconic venues like Lakota, Trinity, Academy and The Thekla. Over a period of time, he started to mix Techno, House and Breaks. He was playing occasional gigs at clubs, but more often for friends at parties. Also enjoyable was travelling to free parties in Wales & the Midlands and regular nights at the Q Club (where Atomic Jam was an old favourite) the Custard factory and Wobble.

He has regularly attended Glastonbury Festival - started by jumping the fence over 25 years ago - and has particularly enjoyed venues like The Glade, Common and Arcadia. Many nights and early mornings were spent(what was in the earlier days) the one large dance tent which was located where the dance village now stands.

 Now, having settled down a bit and successfully organising a few small, outdoor parties, he decided to take forward a long-standing ambition to produce music as well as continue to DJ under the name of HUGEhands. 
Because he has massive hands.

 He has travelled musically full circle and is now mainly focusing on the deep house sounds which originally caught his attention years ago.

 His eclectic musical influences come from far and wide from the deepest house and techno, Old skool Hardcore to breaks and funk. Some of the DJs and producers which have inspired him over the years include (in no particular order); Inland knights, DiY, Miguel Migs, Johnny Fiasco, Daft Punk, Groove Armada, Freddy Fresh, Carl Cox, Jeff Mills, Dave Clarke, Chemical Brothers, Fat Boy Slim, Sasha, Tom Middleton, Way out West, Stanton Warriors, Plump DJs, Krafty Kuts, Lee Coombes, Meat Katie, DJ Punk Roc, The Freestylers, & Adam Freeland...and more recently Huxley, Leftwing and Kody, Maya Jane Coles, Jay West & Catz n Dogz to name just a few….

Have a listen and enjoy.
