What Frequency does happiness live in?

Sunday afternoon on a splendidly beautiful and sunny day. It’s my dad’s birthday. We arrive on the 4th floor COOP in Anderlecht. Cool building with 360 views of BXL. 

@lunarconvoy is paving the way with mesmerising tunes and I get in the mood. Suddenly a man rolls in onto the dance floor on his in-line skates… seems he came with my dad! 🤭

When I take over I’m slightly nervous (so you can hear by my first mix hahahah). The crowd makes me feel so welcome, they are giving me encouraging smiles and everybody’s moving. Suddenly the flow is there… two hours flew by like the birds outside. 

@sonhan took over and guided us in a deeper state of ecstasy. For me it was one of the most satisfying gigs I did in my short carrière. 

Love to all of you who was there. Humbled and thankful. <3

AYLI: Ambient Grace with Reagenz (Move D & Jonah Sharp) | Live Set at Grace Cathedral | July 7, 2023

I’ve been thinking on how to approach my residency at @refugeworldwide , to distinguish the radio shows from the sets I play on the weekends. To share more music with all of you I will be dedicating some upcoming refuge shows to specific genres or decades from my record collection. I will still have to figure out how I will go about it. 

For the last show at Refuge, which was the day after @deschoolamsterdam : I focused on 90's House tracks from my collection, many of which I played during my De School set, capturing the weekend‘s vibe. 

If you're interested in knowing some ID’s, and Shazam fails to identify it for you, feel free to send me a message; I'm always happy to exchange and share!

A masterclass in aerial hypno grooves from Vancouver's @thurlowjoyce, fresh off the back of a mind melting split EP for NAFF alongside Priori and Regularfantasy packed with euphoric peak time delights.

Q. Hey Cole, what inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time/place in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. Hey Myles. Thanks for having me. I've been Deepcasting since day one. It's a blessing to be able to contribute.

I'm in between a few worlds here. I'm originally from Vancouver, Canada, and have been lucky to soak up Canadian sounds since my early days at the Mood Hut parties of free sparkling water. Mood Hut, NAFF, Plush, ISLA, Planet Euphorique, 1080p, they’re cozy CanCon scenes and there's a strong connection between Vancouver & Montreal. 

In parallel I've been stuck on the free form ambiance of 3 X L, Motion Ward, West Mineral Ltd., Kwia adjacent sounds. I'm currently spending a few months in Berlin and just played my first show at Kwia thanks to Nat Marcus (she’s the best), and it's an incredibly unique space, the effect of the experience has been lasting.

This mix feels like a connection between these experiences. I often feel like my taste is a bit too heavy, emotional, euphoric, or dark, and decided to lean into that. There's some softer sounds I've been lingering on mixed with a lot of functional high energy strict business. I hope there's something the listeners can enjoy as well.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart, or new or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment?

A. Naturally there's a healthy amount of CanCon in here. There's so much amazing stuff coming out of NAFF right now. I've been hung up on releases from URA, Purelink and Cousin, as well as one from Cousin's (lovely) label, Moonshoe. Some real bliss from Special Guest DJ as well as with Pontiac Streator as crimeboys. A few favourites from friends (Sverre!), and I've contextualized some of my own. 

Q. I really enjoyed your recent split EP alongside Priori and Regularfantasy for the wonderful NAFF label. Tell us a bit more about those songs you recorded and how it all came together for the label as your debut EP?

A. Thank you! That means a lot. 

Lemon Citrus and Varial are 100% pandemic tracks. I've always struggled to push my own stuff and haven't released much of it or done a good job of putting myself out there. I was writing a lot in isolation during this period and remember trying to be more comfortable with the idea of sharing music, and doing so with my friend Jamie (Big Zen). 

The NAFF connect came about pretty organically. Francis and Adam have been amazing to work with. Jamie’s a G. It was, and still is a trip. NAFF has always been a favourite label of mine. It was a dream realized to be able to contribute.

Thanks again for having me.
