Jaz is a DJ/digger, known for his genre-bending mixes and oddball edits (Spacetalk, American standard, Pinchy & Friends, Beard Science, Rotating Souls). Somewhat of an enigma, he is a minister by day and disco legend by night! Known for his spellbinding transcendent journeys, this mix is no exception.

Salon De Musique w/ Marwan Filali @ Radio TNP 17.05.2024

Next up in Mr Bongo’s Record Club mix series, we’re delighted to welcome São Paulo based DJ, @giununez. Collecting music since she was a young child, Giu started piecing together the sounds she had been digging into DJ sets from the age of 18. Fast forward 16 years and Giu’s prominence as an eclectic and inspiring DJ and selector has seen her regularly grace the lineups of some of Brazil’s best parties and festivals including Gop Tun Festival, Coala Festival and DGTL São Paulo. Further afield, European tours have seen her playing at Amsterdam Dance Event alongside gigs in the likes of London, Paris, Prague, Bordeaux and beyond.

Giu is also part of the Domply collective as a resident DJ of one of Rio de Janeiro’s most loved parties, alongside being a key presence in the São Paulo scene. She contributes to radio shows all over the world with appearances on Worldwide FM, The Lot Radio, Rinse FM, Kiosk, Operator to name just a few. 

For this hour long mix, Giu has put together a selection of sumptuous Brazilian street soul sounds that really highlight the melting pot of influences this scene encompasses. In her own words she mentions:

“My intention was to share a bit of Street Soul from Brazil, some more popular songs, some more obscure, but in any case, all beautiful songs about being in love. 

There are too many favourites in here. I love the version of Jorge Ben ‘Menina Mulher Da Pele Preta’ by Sublimes, it's another mix from a single with six minutes that keeps me totally in. There’s also another Jorge Ben version, ‘Meu Namorado’ by Verônica Sabino, which is a very interesting production. 

Luna & Dj Cri ‘Acabou Como Começou’ has so many amazing details to it. The guitars, keyboards and synths - everything is perfect. Inimigo Público with ‘Fantasia’ uses keyboards like guitars, two vocals working in an awesome way. ‘Soltos Pela Noite’ by Nina Catarina has a layer of reggae that catches me every time.”

Big thanks to Giu for the mix, she will be touring Europe again in September so keep an eye out for upcoming dates.

Mr Bongo Record Club Guest Mix - Giu Nunez

In July 2010, I got an invitation to play at a small but neat festival named Folk Ibiza. It was my first visit to the island. I got to spin at a bunch of different locations, such as the Hostal Boutique Salinas, Sunset Ashram, and on the terrace at Space. I returned in September of the following year to play a set on Andy Wilson's show on Ibiza Sonica and a second time at the Hostal. I have not been back to Ibiza since. I recently came across this picture (taken at Cala Compte next to Sunset Ashram), which inspired me to make this mix. I tried to sonically capture the vibe that I felt back then. It includes some bona fide classics such as Ashra "Oasis“, Santana "Aqua Marine," and Jah Wobble & Holger Czukay "Hold On To Your Dreams," as well as tunes by Smith & Mudd, Begin, Quiet Village and more. Full tracklist below.
