Brekstacy may no longer be live on the airwaves, but here we have a recording from it’s host, creator and curator, Nick Saw playing sweet music from 1-3pm; serenading our ears as we enjoyed brunch, a few mimosas & plenty of sunshine in the Dr Morse beer garden.  

All good gear from start to finish, with a little treat that the man is going to be putting on wax later this year.  Stay tuned…

The debut cassette from Bar Part Time. Available for sale in limited qtys at barparttime.com Tuesday 2/27

"Following up on our first shared endeavor, “Magic Jive” (2020), we are thrilled to continue this journey and introduce you to our first cassette mix, “Matamoros”.

We strived to seamlessly transition from where our previous mix left off, with the former ending “Late Summer Night” echoing at the very beginning of the recording. You will find here a collection of songs that have serenaded our lives over the past three years, mostly re-edited to make them coexist flawlessly.

On Side A “Onda”, you will listen to a light contemplative sailing soundtrack whilst Side B “Costa” depicts what would be our dream setting for a night at a resort park discotheque."

🚀 Skyflare – the new album by John Franklin! ✨
17 electronic tracks that hit hard 🔥
A mix of old-school electro house, deep house, and Detroit house — raw, cool, and full of vibe 😎🎶

And yes… I intentionally used the same vocal samples in two tracks — because it just sounds too damn good 😍🔊

If you're into fresh vibes: listen, feel it, enjoy 💫
And if you love it → maybe grab the album 😉🙏

Shuttered Rhythm

Embark on the Coast Oscura, the stunning debut album from Objects of Affection Collection. This record is a sophisticated, intoxicating journey across the Mediterranean, defining a new frontier in global electronic music: Tribal Noir.

Fusing the driving, hypnotic rhythms of Dark Afro House with the opulence of the Balearic sound, this album is a masterclass in sonic layering. It trades typical synths for genuine, cinematic instrumental drama. You will find yourself immersed in deep-cut tracks driven by a heavy, undeniable bassline, where the passion of the Spanish Guitar meets the melancholic grandeur of Arabic Strings and Horns.

This is a sound built for massive moments—from sunset rituals on the White Isle to the deep pulse of a Moroccan labyrinth. Tracks like "Caravan to Casablanca" and "The Sultan's Tempo" establish the album's core identity: expensive, spiritual, and utterly irresistible.

Coast Oscura is more than an album; it is an exotic invitation to dance Entre Dos Mundos (Between Two Worlds)

European Carryall head of operations Telephones dives into his Aussie tour bag for our latest installment!

Check out the full interview with Telephones: https://oddysee.fm/podcasts/telephones/ 

“It’s a straight up special Australia party-mix! A snapshot of what I played over there. Not one particular set, but it has many of the most played and favourite records from that tour-bag. It´s got a lot of the main bits I played at Pitch Music & Arts, so for everybody that has asked (thanks, really appreciate that!) if that set was recorded – this is kiiiiiind of a rewind.. to be played loud haha. I also wanna give a big shoutout to Sameheads Berlin for burrowing me a CDJ so I could include my “secret” USB bag of tricks, edits and private things, like the second last track here.”

Soulful selections in the spirit of his 2018 Inner Varnika set, by one of Europe’s finest DJs. 

Our tenth instalment in the Theory Therapy series is extra special as it comes from one of the genuine masters of deejaying: Finn Johannsen. Since first cutting his teeth in the 80s playing on the Rare Soul circuit, the veteran selector has garnered a reputation as one of the most versatile and skilled DJs around. The Kiel-born, Berlin-based selector is also behind the Macro Recordings imprint, which he co-runs with Stefan Goldmann. As well as having worked at Berlin’s Hard Wax, he’s also a well-respected writer among music aficionados, contributing to numerous publications over the years. 

For many Australians though, the Berlin selector is best remembered for his incredible 4-hour closing set at Inner Varnika in 2018. In some respects, his Theory Therapy mix feels like a spiritual sequel to that special evening in Victoria. It possesses the same warm, soulful tip, sounds like virtually no one else, and displays his uncanny ability to effortlessly combine sounds from across the globe into one free-flowing, spellbinding trip. He might make it look easy, but the best usually do. So sink into the vibes and allow the masterful Finn Johannsen to take you there—few do it this well.
