NDR Mix Series

The word 'selector' is often casually thrown around - and rarely reflects the obsessive dedication and precision it takes to truly accept be able to  take this term on your shoulders. 

Kirollus attention to digging, vinyl culture and all things dance related undoubtedly allow him to take this in full stride. Whether afrobeat, hip-house, boogie or funk - Kirollus rolls between feel-good basslines for this straight vinyl mix in a familiarly spectacular fashion.

With a new monthly Vinyl Factory showcase, Kirollus' infectious passion for music is going to take him far - keep an eye out, and have a flick over his sets - they're always something outstanding.

Hailing from a traditionally conservative Kuwait, Casa Cascou looks outwards on the taboo of the modern dance-floor world. His intrinsic perspective on music has therefore naturally delved towards obscurity, eclecticism and selection. 

In this mix, Casa Cascou weaves Jazz, world and other rarities in a blissfully relaxed manner. Sit back, and take a step into his curious sonic story.

🌺 Plastic Eden — MindVibesFM

Welcome to Plastic Eden — a garden that never wilts, a paradise built from neon and noise.
Synthetic petals, digital rivers, chrome fruit hanging from data trees — everything shines, nothing breathes.
This track slides between beauty and illusion: lush basslines, glassy synths, and grooves that melt like plastic in the sun.
A meditation on modern perfection — flawless, fragile, and humming in 4/4 time.

🎧 Best played while watching the world glow a little too bright.

Nectar is a celebration of diversity in music. It recognises that without the influence of different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives, music wouldn’t be what it is today. We’ve invited some of our favourite artists who are invested in promoting inclusivity to share an unexpected side of their music taste. Because ultimately, all music, being an individual expression of self, holds equal validity.

"This mix captures my love for a wide and increasingly undefinable variety of sounds that fall under the umbrella of drum and bass.
D&B has soundtracked some of my happiest memories; from my first experiences of being at a rave, sneaking into Herbal with our passport photocopies, to Jungle Jams in Leeds and nights at Rupture more recently. Now as I make steps into production I find myself leaning towards 170 bpm. 

I realised after recording this mix that there are no womxn producers featured. Moving forward, this will be front of mind always, not only as this is one means to work towards a healthier social balance across the music scene, but because the best outcomes are reached when diversity of input is respected. Whilst it's undeniable that there are a small number of womxn producers out there who are making music infused with the old school jungle flavours I love - huge respect to Mantra, Yorobi, Sweetpea, Djinn, Decibella, Charla Green & Fauzia - I understand if you look hard enough for great music from underrepresented talent, it can be found. I'd also very much welcome recommendations - yasmine@pollination.uk

That said, I had a lot of fun putting this together, big up all the incredibly talented producers who are innovating D&B today. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy it :)"

Something New

Big A.D. - Back to Me

Conceived in the literal underground of the INDEX:Records basement studio in Berlin, the enigmatic, new-coming “pop” group Downstairs People, is an unlikely collaborative project to be birthed from 2020 – the year of isolation. ‘Underground Pop’ is a collection of aural serotonin hits that touch the feel good receptors, genre hopping between synth-pop, house and neo-RnB. 

The group is conducted and glued together by INDEX:Record's own, Jorge Camacho, the maestro behind his alias, @vasesound. Camacho brings together a gauntlet of Berlin-based artists and INDEX: affiliates, dishing out something fresh after countless late night sessions, only to curate a serendipitously coherent record of left-field pop hits, that arrive just in time for summer.

‘Underground Pop’ by Downstairs People is out 16 April 2021 via single disk 12” LP vinyl, with full album artwork outer-sleeve and black inner-sleeve. A run of 250 copies are distributed worldwide by Rubadub and available to purchase on INDEX:Records' Bandcamp (where a limited amount are offered with a rare edition Downstairs People Zine, designed by @amos-turner).
