🌞 💓 🌞 💓 Hello my dear friends 🌞 💓 🌞 💓

I'm so honored and delighted to share this week's guest mix because it's coming from one of the true heroes of chilled-out electronica and a musical genius, with by now 30 years old music career, Sir Steve Cobby.

Steve Cobby is a producer, musician, and DJ from Hull, UK. His first commercial outing was with Ashley & Jackson, a short-lived project signed to Big Life records in 1988. When they were dropped, he co-founded Pork Recordings and Fila Brazillia in 1990. Fila released 12 critically acclaimed LPs besides producing over 70 remixes for artists as diverse as Radiohead, Busta Rhymes, Black Uhuru, Simple Minds, James, A Certain Ratio and Moloko.

His first paid DJ set was in 85. He has since gone on to play all four corners of the globe from Sydney to San Francisco, New York to Tokyo, as well as performing live in Europe, Japan and the US with Fila. With David Brennand he established the iconic label Pork Recordings in 1990. An imprint that went on to become internationally acclaimed for its quality and integrity. The acclaimed compilation series Another Late Night was kickstarted by Fila’s mix in 2000. They also co-produced Afghan Whigs Greg Dullis debut Twilight Singers and co-wrote with seminal US composer Harold Budd and UK legend Bill Nelson for the Three White Roses collaboration.

Steve's other projects include Heights Of Abraham, JSTARS, The Cutler, Hey Rube, Chieftain and Citrus with Richard H Kirk. Cobby now releases all solo work on his own Déclassé imprint. His solo LP ‘Saudade’ garnered considerable critical acclaim, selling its limited-edition run in spring 2014. The follow-up ‘Everliving’ was named in Piccadilly Records top 100 LPs of the year in 2015. Last year's third solo outing ‘Hemidemisemiquaver’ received similar glowing praise.

Recently, he undertook a new challenge and scored the music for the very successful Hull City Of Culture bid film besides providing the soundtrack for the play ‘Revolutions’, performed by local theatrical company Ensemble 52.

2017 saw him curate City Of Vultures series of evenings to celebrate Hulls year as City Of Culture. Guests included those he’s befriended and played alongside over his 30-year career, including Mr. Scruff, Ashley Beedle, Richard Dorfmeister and Daz Emerson.

In 2019 he released the critically acclaimed 'Sweet Jesus' and collaborated with Dennis Bovell and UB40's Jimmy Brown on the track Quality Weed.
He's put 4 LPs out since that but you can find his whole discography on the links below:

DJ Magazine has said that Cobby deserves a knighthood for his “major contribution to downtempo funk in his country and leftfield dance music in general.” The man knows music.

 His renaissance as a solo artist these later years is only further proof how what a true musician the man is and one could only hope he never stops delivering his sonic crafts to the world because they make this a cooler place. In the case of Steve Cobby, there is nothing but originality, heritage and sincerity. Biggest ups!

This veteran producer and multi-instrumentalist brings for our listening pleasure a collection of tracks that capture "melancholy and warmth in equal measure .“
He’s put together a special mix for the Sunset Lovers, so hit play, sit back, relax and enjoy your musical journey through sonic heaven.

Big love to all and huge thanks to Sir Steve Cobby for his contribution ❤️💛👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩🌅💏🌅👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨🌅❤️💛

The Sunset Lovers #41 with Steve Cobby

Another year draws to close and its been another strange one by all accounts. This month we welcome JBERR, an artist ventured upon back in the summer for the final episode of 2021.

JBERR is the outlet for Melbourne-based Jack Berryman's delicately crafted low-fidelity vignettes and stripped-back Antipodean techno sketches. Drawing on decades of home-studio R&D, and an observational outlook soundtracked by experimental composition, 90s hip hop, dub, house and the techno spectrum, the project seeks to set free some of the more fully formed ideas cooked up over the past few years.

Jack has put together a selection of his own music for a 45 minute mix that closes out the last episode of '21 in his own deep electronic style. Thanks Jack

Big thank you also to all the guests over the last 12 months. Matt White, Cottam, Flash Atkins, J-Cub aka Jacob Kelly, Matthew Bowles aka Mezla, Craig Christon, Tony Green Released Records and Jack Berryman aka J-Berr. 

Hope you've found some delight within this year's offerings. Next up we have Darren Rock (Xpress-2), Balearic Social and Ben UFO Club Lewis (Invisible Inc)

For those venturing upon us for the first time and enjoy what you hear, come join us on the facebook Reframe group for infrequent musical ramblings, show tracklistings, info, updates...we are a nice bunch

The ReFrame & JBERR (Melbourne)

Have been a huge fan of Rocky & Diesel since stumbling across them aged 18 firing out what was to be a sound that would shape my musical trajectory thereon. Tracks dropped that night were Carl Craigs paperclip people nestling amongst NY gay disco anthem Born this way by Carl Bean and deep house tinged with mood and soul in the main room of Cream Liverpool.  

As a youthful adolescent we’d try get into cream but struggled week on week until a chance encounter one Saturday and opportunity seized when the promoter Darren Hughes popped into JD sports where I had a Saturday job. 

What followed was an exchange of Green Adidas Marathon,  a giving from John and David aka JD sports for services to house music. The favour was returned with a contact number scribbled on some paper and the words just call this when you're coming down to Cream and you and a mate can go on the guestlist.. whenever.

That was August 1994…27 plus years ago.  Its such an honour to have Rocky aka Darren Rock, one half of that duo and a third of the global reaching X-Press II  to close out the show with an hour of signature dance-floor arsenal.

https://soundcloud.com/francescamackay is back with Architextures, this month bringing you 2 hours of music inspired by AfriCOBRA, and the AACM (Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians), a still-flourishing organisation of primarily African American Chicago musicians whose interdisciplinary explorations expanded the boundaries of jazz.

AfriCOBRA was a Chicago-based group of black artists whose shared aim was to develop their own aesthetic in the visual arts to empower black communities. Rather than bringing about change through political revolt, these artists used the black identity, its style, attitude and worldview to foster solidarity and self-confidence throughout the African diaspora.

This month's show includes music from AACM members Wadada Leo Smith, Muhal Richard Adams and Tomeka Reid and Jeff Parker, and is inspired by the intertwined legacy, style and ethos of the sounds and visual art of both collectives.

Mr Scruff DJ set, Manchester Band on the Wall, Saturday 3rd October 2015

∞ I'm happy to share the recording of my set from Sunday afternoon at the Lichtung area ∞

Music is communication from the heart. Weaved together, it wants to tell you a story about life, dreams, loss, and love; about the beauty and wisdom of this earth and its ancient cultures, and about visions of interplanetary consciousness. In the end, it all makes you feel uplifted. 

thanks to the colourful listeners and dancers for being there, the beautiful Lichtung crew for having me and all the music makers who add new dimensions to this life ♥

After having several "Love And ..." talks at THF Radio this year Love Foundation Berlin now starts a new monthly series of small talks and music to showcase artists. The kick-off was with no other than our beloved @lemonella with who we already had the pleasure several times to welcome her at parties and to dance along to her tunes.

Lovecast 85 - Lemonella @ THF Radio 06.09.2020

Für die Ewigwachgebliebenen zum Feierabendbier, für die Frühaufsteher als Seelenfutter zum Wochenbeginn: Montagssorbet mit Laut & Luise. Alles erlaubt, was gut tut und Gedanken kreisen lässt, nur der Name ist Programm: cremig, fluffig und ganz schön weich.

Zeit ist lang und Raum ist groß, viel Spiel sich zu verpassen. Dennoch: Manchmal passt's halt einfach. Um so schöner eben, dass nicht nur die Ausgangslänge schön statt schief ist: @neoBeo sonst zwischen Fusion, Sisyphos und Katerschmaus unterwegs, heute mit Zeit und Raum im Montagskontinuum. Mit custom Edits, eigenem Instrument und Vocal Support von Andy Snatch.
