Ploy - 07 October 2025

In the words of Scott Zacharias, who closed the Outer Space Room at No Way Back, May 25, 2025, Day 2 of Return to the Source at Tangent, Detroit:

“NWB, being more than just the sum of its parts, always reflects my current life state(or lack of) and this year was no different. My friend Zach reminded me of this ultra-special cut by Arthur Russell: “In the Light of the Miracle.” It’s one of those holy grails and this mix (by Danny Krivit & Tony Smith) only existed as unreleased Talking’ Loud promo until a Soul Jazz comp finally issued it properly in 2005. I used to run it occasionally some 20 years ago, but hearing it again left me shook and set the stage for my entire set. And the rest of my life. My partner Ellen and I learned we were pregnant that same weekend.

Completely overwhelmed, I felt like I just wanted to share music for folks like I do in my own living room. Not really as a mix, but an intimate family affair. In the wee hours of the morning when I finally decided to share Russell’s opus, Ellen joined me on stage. We embraced and cried as we saw all our friends dancing in a now sunlit room. 

“I love you and that's all, living in the light.” — Arthur Russell”

Quick update — Life’s been life-ing, but I thought it might be fun to figure out whatever the hell I was doing last No Way Back. There have been a lot of ID requests so let’s get into it. Big thanks to IT, Jim Gibbons for mastering this mix, and all of the wonderful artists featured. Music is love and love is the message — SZ

A blessed transmission from our dear friend from London Sam PV (@sam_pv)! A stunning opening set for our friends in Pittsburgh recorded live at the new Hot Mass location. 

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙨 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙚𝙩 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙎𝙖𝙢...
This is a recording of my three hour set, opening for Nono Gigsta at Humanaut at Hot Mass in Pittsburgh. Hot Mass looms large in the mythology of the North American queer underground and i’d heard countless stories from friends who’d both played and danced there. Tragically, I never got to experience the old location but I can say for certain that the new spot is surely up there with the best clubs in the world. 

Nono is also one of my absolute favourite DJs, and was embarking on her ‘first and only’ US tour, so to say this was an important gig for me is something of an understatement. As a promoter, dancer and DJ I place great importance on the art of good a warm up set and I wanted to set it up so that Nono felt comfortable to let her most mercurial and unpredictable instincts fly. 

The end result was a journey through genres and eras, starting at 100 bpm and ending at 135, with a focus on drawing out shared sonic connections through disparate sounds with a common grounding in bass weight. And some contractually obligated UKG - shout out Jack!
