"when you would lock yourself in your room to listen and dance to music without guilt
I call it bedroom reggaeton
I understand music is more than a song and sound goes beyond rhythm
i love blending melodies and integrating my taste into the creation of new languages and dialogues
(specially intrapersonal ones)"

Scuffed alum and Seattle-based artist @jasoncode_ joins us tomorrow Monday March 3th at 8pm pacific with a special guest mix recorded live at the Particle FM studio. Jersey club, bass pressure, and more.

Guest Mix w/ Jason Code - Mar 4th 2024

Music inspiration comes in countless forms and from all corners of the globe, and there was a time when @belters4u felt like quite the secret well of musical expertise... Well the secret is now officially out.  Over the past four years, you'd be hard pressed to find a music channel that's built a more impressive roster of followers, or catalog of electronic gems and digs that spans decades. Vibrary of Congress with @a_pili is stoked to welcome Belters 4U for guest mix duties on this month's show, to flex his taste and continue his dance music dissertation with a global audience. Join from anywhere, via the Particle FM website, beginning Wed. March 6 at 6p PST/ 2a GMT (Mar 7).  Hop in the chat and buckle in for a proper journey, and we'll see you in the mix!"

Get to know: Alan Gillies
DJ Alias: Belters 4U
Current city: Inverness, Scotland 
Favorite party played: My own party Joy Energiser (Glasgow)
Fave venue: Arches , Glasgow. It's an iconic club that's recently reopened after a few years of being shut. It's the club me and my friends couldn't wait to turn 18 to go to. It's a 3000 capacity club and has seen Richie Hawtin, Laurent Garnier, Carl Cox, Robert Hood, Bookashade, Vitalic, Ben Klock, plus many more play legendary sets in those famous arches.
Record Shop: Palais de Danse, Glasgow. Ran my by good mate Dennis, it's easily the most laid-back digging experience in Glasgow and is a treasure trove for all things electronic music. It's all second hand stuff too and pretty cheap. I prefer second hand shops and discogs for vinyl as new releases are so expensive.
Dream b2b partner: Lord of the Isles
Track of the moment: Underworld x Kettama - g town euphoria Luna 

Mix Inspo: Whether it's house or techno I love melodic, groovy tracks and that's the kind of vibe I went for. It's an uplifting mix as well. One for bopping 'round the house, driving , or working out.

Upcoming plans!
My Belters 4U record label is imminently about to launch with my good mate on the first release...can't wait to share it with you all. Got a family holiday in Greece too in May and I'm buzzing for that :)

Secret Level is pleased to welcome it’s first guest August V.M. (@august222222) today Thu Mar 14th at 6pm pacific on particle.fm

Augustina Moore (b. 1999 Vashon Island) is a trans songwriter & musician, DJ, & sound designer living and working in Seattle, Washington. As a selector and producer, August’s offerings blur reconstructed clubland frenetics into the hyper-familiarity of dancefloor heritage groove.

For this episode, she brings us a mix titled “Dawn of a New Day”. In her own words:

For this mix I wanted to embody and explore the concept of the “day-night cycle”, and the way video game music helps define and set atmosphere in relation to time of day. The mix is split into three distinct sections (morning, day, and night) and follows a loose imagined narrative of a day in the life of a game character! I like to use music in a very functional way to soundtrack my day and activities (I have specific music / playlists for things like studying, cooking, going for a walk, taking a shower), and was imagining this character / the listener doing the same with this mix: brushing their teeth and making breakfast to the first section, running errands and taking the train to the second, and winding down while reading a book to the final section. I pulled VGM from some of my all-time favorite games & composers, games that I've been meaning to play forever, and also some weird obscure OSTs my friends have put me onto (shoutout Cori, Mason & Natasha !!!). Please enjoy & have a nice day!~

One day Black God was busy making the constellations by
carefully ordering the stars in the sky when Coyote became
impatient and tossed the remaining stars from a blanket into the sky, forming the Milky Way.’
