“Dancefloor Memories” is a new compilation, a love letter to the dancefloor, released on the Swiss label Proxima. Its focus is on the epiphanies lived on a dancefloor and translated through 10 tracks + 1 bonus track.

This compilation is curated by Proxima co-founders Audrey Danza and Nicolas Oggier, also representing Motel Campo.

The dancefloor, place of expression, of life, but also real catalyst of memories. We measure all that we built there in the sweat, the brushing of bodies, and the music which transported us: a memory. These key moments, absolutely separate, touching ecstasy or epiphany, are the stories told through “Dancefloor Memories”. Drawing their energy from these moments of unprecedented intensity, those tracks have been produced by artists who have delivered their own interpretation of a strong moment on the dancefloor.

10 tracks including a psychedelic, bewitching and undeniably gripping vision (Trent, Eva Geist), a punchy and percussive, kaleidoscopic and colorful celebration of the dancefloor (Powder, Castro), a futuristic and electro-cataclysmic perception (Neu Verboten, Nicola Kazimir), as well as a melancholic journey (BSS, Belia Winnewisser, NVST) and an introspective vision (Epsilove).

In this compilation, we find regulars Cocktail d'Amore DJs, Trent and Powder but also Castro from the Berlin record-store Sound Metaphors, cutting-edge artists from the Swiss underground scene: Neu Verboten, Belia Winnewisser, Nicola Kazimir or NVST, the Paris-based producer Epsilove, Dutch producer and Dekmantel regular BSS (Beesmunt Soundsystem), and the Italian composer, synthesist and sound designer Eva Geist. 

The bonus track consists of a remix of Neu Verboten's track by Proxima's co-founder and Motel Campo resident dj Audrey Danza.

For this 21sh show, I am very glad to have Limbe (@robin_limbe) on board! Limbe is a member of Pompelope (@pompelope), a party curator since 2016 who invites artists without any genre limitation, and with only leitmotiv: sharing their own vision of a party.

They’ve enlarged their activities during the successive lockdowns by hosting a series of online takeovers on IMR Radio, and by releasing their first compilation ‘Foule Contact’ last year including artists as such as Gui Scott, Running Hot, Eternal Love, Hysteric, JAI, and others...

This mix is all about the desire of going back behind the decks, and find back the heat of a club.

The mix was broadcast on Internet Public Radio (@internetpublicradio) in Guadalajara.

Gumar aka Break Mode is always riding a wave of outsider joy. From his irreverent DJ mixes and club appearances to his stacked discography of remixes, re-edits and original material there's always an electric sense of expertly harnessed ecstasy which has made his events and releases west coast classics.

Almost 6 years ago Frinda Di Lanco and Hendrik Stein met in a small, fumy bar in Berlin Kreuzberg, where one was playing records and the other one danced. While the AOR and Balearic-aficionado Hendrik ran the infamous Disco Train with Charlie Smooth at Crack Bellmer, Frinda was regularly spinning records at Cafe Wendel, defining herself as a record collector with a deep knowledge of Funk, Soul and Jazz.
Since 2018 the couple can be found as a DJ duo with a deep love for obscure vinyl records. Their sets are a vibrant mixture ranging from cosmic, disco, Italo, new beat, proto house and they will never fail to surprise their audience with some unexpected NDW, Schlager or other treasures from all over the world.

You can find their traces at Berlin’s Heideglühen, where they appeared straight from a sweat-inducing match on the tennis court at 10 in the morning or at Krakow’s Spitalna 1, where they emptied the main floor and kept the whole crowd dancing on a small side-floor to a myth-enshrouded 135bpm cosmic disco set. In 2020 they founded their Record Label "Avec Paisir" and re-released an enchanting collection of Austrian Cosmic Tracks from the 90ies. The second Release is just in the making and will be another example for their love to the unpredictable and eclecticism.

Isterika Mix 016: Frinda di Lanco & Hendrik Stein

With his explorations of the beauty in repetition, which comes in both music and nature, Šarūnas Bixon here sets up that feel of comfort. Being on the liminality of dusk till dawn - it is yet an ever energizing selection to feel wide open to whatever comes next - collage of breakey house variations as well as early trance beat resonations which all blends well while setting the tone for cushy moves under Yaga pines. 
Šarūnas is also part of Minimal.lt community and Minimal Mondays event series. He is performing at Pinegrove stage on Saturday night.

Kunze, Jürgen Grah and Markus Kammann. Musically, the sound of Cold End was something special back in the time, as a successful fusion of electronic and soul.
