Trujillo's Mix October 2011

For the 14th installment in our Just For The Night series, selectors take you on their own journey through groove. Anything goes.

Enter, one of Motor City's hidden gems. Keyboardist, composer & selector Jade Zuberi aka Jay Sound caught our ears & we just had to invite him onto the series. An incredibly diverse musician who can shift between New Age, Deep House, Funk, Jazz & more, his sound has a constant deep retro atmosphere at its foundation coupled with 80s synths, complex polyrhythmic bass lines, dream like chords & retro drum machines.

Fuelling his artistry are wide-ranging inspirations from Theo Parrish, Larry Heard, Ron Trent, Benedek, Bonodo & Trinidadian Deep to Herbie Hancock, Prince, Sade, Kuniyuki Takahashi, Robert Glasper, Dam-Funk, George Duke, Hans Zimmer, John Carpenter & so much more.

Detroit came through! 🙏 Eternal appreciation @jaysound-1

Late Night Locosessions w/ Levphonic - August 2023

Based out of Bushwick’s Human Head Recordstore, California’s Shawn Dub and Germany’s Sticky Dojah bring you the „Records Before Rent“ show. Each month they play their latest finds and your all time favorites. Both won’t shy away from themed sets (their post election healing set was a favorite!) and often feature guests from all around the world. All vinyl, all live, all soulful. Both are heavy diggers and seasoned party rockers and love to bring it all together on air. Expect the odd classic as well as tracks and versions you’ve never heard before.

AQUARIO is our intimate monthly party in Torino, our occasion to dive deep into our favorite sounds, dancing with eyes closed and feeling the vibe we need for a few hours.

This recording was from my closing set of the past season, a nice memory of what we built and an invitation to join us for the new season starting on October 28th 2023.

A DJ Mix that my Gang Gang Negroclash (Prince Language, DJ Lindsey and myself) did for the Fools Gold Podcast the summer of 2011. People have said they can't find it, so here it is!  Fools gold description of this mix  " The trio have whipped up a note-perfect collection of funkables perfect for your next house party, BBQ, vacation drive, or any other hot-weather activity that requires that extra degree of jams. No tracklist, just know these are the handclaps, basslines, 909s and good vibes you absolutely need in your life. Plus: it’s hosted by Sun Ra!"
