Proto Hustle mixes made with love

Been over a year since the lockdowns started. 
Gotta be opening up again soon.
It won't be the same.
But anything new will do.

Here's a crunchy downtempo mix I made in a short session over the weekend. It's got moments where you might wanna dance, but it's too chill to start a party. Enjoy the ride!

You're on mute

MISHA SVIRID - KOKON . DECEMER 2021.

2022 has been a quiet one for me, but not for much longer. I'm very excited to be heading to party it up at Karrusel in Copenhagen soon. I'll be very focused on catching my long-time DJ crush @Partiboi69 and popping that Partiboi69 cherry. I made this mix with that in mind. It starts out meandering some favourite tracks of mine (Kraftwerk Numbers ❤️) then heads into the hard house, techno, hard electro zone very quickly. Enjoy!

WOCI's Summer Parti 2022 Mix

XLDK 23 Sani S Usami - Burning Snowflakes

Tracks with tempo, sometimes down, sometimes up, all electro. Put together with the intention to encourage body moving.

Includes tracks from Seefeel, Romare, Against All Logic, Pale Blue, C.A.R., For Those I Love, UK Electro, and a bunch more.

Zaren // For The Bears

This is the first set played at the Astral Matter Experience at Sacred Vibrations 2019 in Shepherd, MI. Starting slow, we build up into some solid progressive vibes that had our new open dance floor groovin'. Such a fun set, it was an honor to get to play for everyone there and to be able to share with you now!

Unfortunately I lost the track list, as my computer is a lil janky sometimes, but if you want to know any particular track, please ask in a comment.

WOCI's Boom Clap Boogie Mixtape

Moonlight Behind The Clouds - vol.1

This year, many people were deprived of various feelings for a while. But we can't lose our sense of rhythm!

Feel the taste of Dark Disco

Live streaming has been a good way for me to musically unwind during the last 10 months. I had a couple of months off from broadcasting recently though (life got bizzay), but got back into the stream game recently and had a blast. Here's an hour excerpt from the middle of my last mix for @ProtoHustle Presents. 

My mixes tend to switch it up between disco, house, downtempo and techno. This mix is mainly house 🏠
