these are my recorded live sets since turning 'semi-pro' in late 2016. I try to create a fun dance-able atmosphere through a combo of interesting house re-edits of classic disco beats and more contemporary electronic dance, often overlaid with jazzy instrumentals to create a 'cosmic disco' sort of sound. xx

at home #11 - a deeper neon pink

Dear friends and fellow party animals,

Picture the scene - it is 1pm on a Saturday in late August.

You are on a patio terrace at a house party like no other, in deepest english countryside, your festival tent is set up, you are here for a good time.

The music begins and will not stop for 48 hours...

---

Here is my opening 2hr mix recorded live at a truly EXCELLENT weekend of intense professional partying @Kimberfest - the very special annual festival hosted by @alexandra_dj & @kai_dj-producer host to now hundreds of deep DJ performances exclusive to their max capacity of 100 people.

I loved the experience of preparing these tunes, getting in the zone, playing the set - and grooving to the music - proud to be listed alongside some seriously talented pro and semi-pro DJs all of which can be found HERE: https://soundcloud.com/kimberfest/sets/mini-kimber-2023-recorded-sets

Listener context: there was rain coming in and out, with PVC panels protecting the decks between me and the emerging party scene on the terrace. So what you will hear is adaptive to the crowd as people came in and out. So a fairly casual warm-up for an afternoon (and entire weekend!) of fun and love, with a song selection loaded with warm neon flavours.

It was a huge privilege to play some groovy music to my friends after a long break. Please enjoy the raw unedited cut - including the disaster moments at the end!

What a WEEKEND!

Thank you @wayne-gibbins for the invite to play poolside at your wonderful 40th out in the country. I was (mostly!) happy with my performance and it was an honour to play to a crowd of many great friends, who were variously either in the jacuzzi, engaged in one-wheel championships, or raving it up with me in the conservatory. 🦉🎶 xx

Musically, you can expect a few old NP favourites, some new blends, and generally summery upbeat early-evening vibes throughout.
