RADIO.D59B / THINK ABOUT IT #3 w/ Delfonic

In the early 2000s Alex fell in love with the power and the spirit of house and disco. A love that has not changed ever since. Paired with a decent rave attitude, Alex aims to create a dance floor where every dancer feels at home. 
A sound best describes as Power Disco: a multifaceted crossover blending all shades of House and Disco – from A like Acid House to Hi-NRG (lots of it) or Italo, all the way to Z as in Zouk – coupled with a good dose of Rave Classics.  It's vibrant and unconventional. A bold musical statement with an absolute focus on the dance floor. Music selected and crafted for all the dancers among us. The kind of music that sparks those "Hand-Up" moments, leaving us speechless, eyes closed, a wide grin on our faces, and a bold "What the f***?" echoing in our minds as we seamlessly merge with the dance floor.

Dagfest [da:g fɛst] is the Swedish word for day party and that is what the duo have dedicated themselves to make - the perfect Dagfest.
With the perfect blend of emotional pop, pulsating bass lines, shiny disco and a 707 the duo transforms the musical journey to a place in the sun.
Members Patricio Cabezas and Mats Lundgren consists of equal parts producers and crate diggers. Inspired by a vast range of synths and a miscellaneous record collection their exposure to a broad musical diet are clearly heard in their dj-sets which smoothly moves  the dance floor through different styles. The result is rich and varied sets that always surprises. 
Together with the community Gläntan they also throw underground parties, intimate and with house party vibes.
Characterized by a wide range of genres Dagfest is not unambiguous or easy to define. But one thing is for sure, it’s sticky.

Wax on Fridays was born through the creative struggles of a classic nine-to-five state. The chosen moniker makes a reference to the only legitimate synonym for Friday - the golden child of the weekdays. He has been into records on different mediums for as long as he can remember. Always on the lookout, always listening. Some days it’s mellow, other days it’s straight-up dancefloor business. His moniker was born ten years ago — not for the glitter, not to tick boxes — but to showcase those tracks that caught his attention. Digging isn’t some flex. It’s work. He goes through piles of music just to find that little something-something. Music that sticks. No trends, no gimmicks. Starting out digging soul, funk, and disco, he took the long route into the depths of 12"ers. A few years of traveling, catching nights in dark clubs and bright rooftops, and house music started leaving its mark — a genre which, according to him, sits very well in real life. Check him out to get to know his musical identity and vinyl-only mentality, which put him on the path of becoming a respected selector on the scene.

I started collecting records in the early 80s and in the wake of acid house I began my DJ-ing career (1988!) and started amassing vinyls. I have been collecting all kinds of soulful and deep stuff from classic soul and R&B thru house, jazz, funk and more left-field artists that haven't been widely popular but kept passion for creating exceptional music that is deserved to be heard, enjoyed and respected. In this times, when music is pushed aside for its ability to create critical view on the world and spread the powerful messages, its important to show your grit and passion for true quality and dedication to good cause. This channel is dedicated to my musical and artistic explorations thru the Influences Radio Show - Soulful Music from Past to Present on D59B Radio every second Wednesday from 8PM.
