On this full moon in nurturing Cancer, @bezier captures and releases the effervescent force we need to inspire and sustain us in this strange season of annual rebirth. Percussive rhythm and flow capture the structured energy of saturnalian domme Capricorn, while textured breaks hint at Venus' current position in Aquarius – reminding us that rules are made to be tested – everything is cyclical, and yet novelty is a constant calling. Enjoy this gorgeous and energetic start to 2023, hatch plans, and soak up the secure lunar warmth of Cancer, which reminds us of who we are, and where we belong, even in the depths of Winter 🦀 

"I chose to present an energetic mix. Capricorn’s ruler Saturn is the taskmaster. We need a lot of pep and charge to get through the harsh January conditions so we can complete our mission. Saturn is a hard, dominating presence requiring discipline and direction. You need to ask for help from your friends and comfortable familiars to navigate all the obstacles Saturn throws at you. This is where the full moon in Cancer comes in. The full moon during Capricorn is where you need to look for guidance and inspiration to complete all odds and ends before the next new moon. Cancer rules the home, and the environment that nurtures you. A lot of tracks here represent a lot of artists and collectives that have influenced and inspired me over the years as a music producer and DJ. My friends are my family and home. It is an honor to represent them here in this mix."

Ron Like Hell for TYFS

On January 22nd, 2023 the world celebrated the Lunar New Year, and the gate was opened to welcome the astrological proclivities and inclinations of the Yin Water Rabbit. Now, on February 1st, patiently and excitedly awaiting for the arrival of the Rabbit, which is to occur on February 4th, we celebrate the new year and the arrival of a very special contribution to our fledgling series, provided by the inspirational selector, and friend of many years, Cay Horiuchi.

In Cay's words: 

"This mix features some of the tracks I played for a cute underground NYE party organized by my friends in the unceded lands of the Chinook and Multnomah tribes. Living in the Pacific Northwest, this season is when I long for sunshine the most. Take a sonic journey with me all the way from South Africa, Japan, Algeria, U.S., Taiwan, and beyond. 
It’s about the celebration of the new year, 癸卯 (mizu no tou). New growth, new beginning.
It’s about dancing with your family and friends. 
It’s about the celebration of life.
It’s about love."

And so, dear listeners, in whatever state or corner of the world this mix finds you, we invite you to return to the untarnished listening you were born with, and to begin again.

previously available only on the club’s patreon, this is now public for everyone to enjoy. created for Virtually Nowadays at the beginning of the shutdown in April 2020 the movie was created by Jay Ivan as we drove through the empty streets of the NYC area, he filmed with a handheld DSLR and then aligned the audio after editing. 
programming this mix was emotional..i did my best to hopefully help people process positively while enjoying a "dance music mix" during a time of overwhelming uncertainty.

love and respect to Nowadays, Kristin (DJ Voices) for inviting me to participate in their livestreams, to my husband Jay Ivan for his patience and support for my professional goals and to you for your attention and kind appreciation 💜

🎶please FOLLOW me for NEW releases😊...... It's all about expression...this is part of my 20 year legacy portfolio (under aliases) of live mixes (including vinyl) to make the classics live again!..my music style comes from blending sounds that normally wouldn’t live in the same space or time - I love taking familiar groove tracks and reimagining them with new energy, whether that’s through creative sampling, stems, adding subtle beats, unexpected transitions, or layering vocals over completely different instrumentals - see my track list here: https://soundcloud.com/ch_risk_1   I hope you enjoy the vibes and please share it across all generations, so everyone can join in my New Groove! 🎶 💞  a big Thank You to Pioneer, Rekordbox, Albleton and Remix live, who provide all my beats 🥁and also all the the original artists. Where would DJs be without you and where would artists be without DJs🙌
