dj fart in the club @ sustain-release year 7 (2021)

With what was mostly a full and fruitful year for us with many beautiful moments, we now turn our eyes forward to what is looking to be a very exciting year for us at Phonica as we walk into our 20th year of being alive. 2022 saw our mix series get even more killer contributions from artists like Paramida, Sally C, Fred P, Eden Burns, Alex Kassian, Erol Alkan and more. 2023's series line up plans to keep moving up and we have opened this years mix season in the capable hands of two of the finest DJ/Producers doing it right now. Bringing nothing but powerful, euphoric and goddess energies it can only be Octo Octa and Eris Drew of T4T Luv NRG. Amazingly celebrated for their strand of psychedelic, rolling progressive, trancey-house and break rhythms we can't think of two better selector's to take on our series. With an excellently curated compilation and mix for our good friends at Fabric last year as well as two banging cassettes on T4T we can't begin to imagine what this year has in-store for Maya and Eris but we have no doubt it's even more on the upward trajectory! Most likely to the heavens and back! We had a chat with Maya and Eris to see what they have been up to lately and little about how they approached the mix.

Reveal Yourself to the Pure Elements of Groove in the Afternoon

This set is a nature spell, an afternoon praise break, the trees shook with us as we followed the source energy through the drum beat with disco, house, gospel, all kinds of soulful music for the funky people of the rainbow. 

I am reminiscing to this. It brings me back to visions of the sun peaking as white light through clouds, the sweat, the incense, the smiles, the moments of elation and rhythmic sensation. 

Thank you for letting me play music from my heart for you this afternoon. My one woman jazz takes many bumps twists turns, and you all were there for the journey! It felt so good. Your energy & memories are diffused into these sounds now too. Gratitude to all the forces that brought me here, to be a conduit of joy - Dee Diggs
