The Future Sound Of Stonnington

For the 115th entry in the Honcho Podcast series, we welcome Sam PV! Sam is the founder and a resident at Pumping Velvet, a London-based Queer dance party that takes place bi-monthly at LGBTQ+ venue Dalston Superstore.

Frustrated by the lack of queer spaces where you could hear both a Svek record and Kylie in the same night, Sam founded Pumping Velvet in 2018, driven by the firm belief that any barriers erected between pop and ‘serious’ dance music are entirely artificial and that there’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure. It’s this same ethos and disregard for boundaries that makes his DJ so thrilling.

This mix is a live recording of Sam's set at Kiss Me Again, a Manchester-based LGBTQ+ dance party, in November 2022.

Angel D'lite - 12 June 2024

We continue our podcast conversations with Kikelomo & A Song For You, who bring their collaborative debut to our forest on Friday 6th September!  

Electronic and choral music will mix as 8 vocalists line up around the booth to put on a show that will unite us across the dance floor. You'll be carrying this experience with you for the rest of the weekend.  

We talk to Kike, Noah and Danesh about the origins of singing and how it's as ingrained in humanity as music and rhythm. We also speak about how A Song For You came to be, how Kike got involved and what to expect during their performance at Draaimolen.  

We can't wait, and we're pretty sure you won't either, after listening to this episode.  

Love,  
Team Draaimolen ❤️

Title: 'volatile butter'

A track that means a lot to you and, if you feel like sharing, why: 'Fix to Fax - Lover Lady'
I still remember the first time listening to the track played by Roza Terenzi on her RA mix. It was a fast mesmerization. I love how the tracks of this EP capture the mellow and healing essence of 90s music yet meanwhile produced in a danceable way. It somehow marked a turning point for me as I later plunged into the vast mine of 90s rave music. 

About you:  As a producer based in Beijing, Night Swimmer grows out of the raw underground music scene in Wuhan. In 2022, his album "Xia Ye" won the title of "Album of the Day" on Bandcamp. Acclaims from Electronic Sound, Mixmag Asia, Groove.de, and MUSIC MAGAZINE ensued. Xia Ye taps into the sonics of traditional Chinese instrumentation with a touch of 90s Chinese psychedelic rock and underground electronics. It tries to encapsulate the fickle mental state under the lockdown of COVID 19. 
Starting as a DJ just recently, he manages to maintain his orientation towards antique sounds through old rave and like-minded modern producers. Aquarian eclecticism is the trait.
