good extended mixes

We're all familiar with the healing power of music, but the Motor City's Whodat has made it her life's mission to spread that through her DJing and productions. Always coming at music with a sense of sincerity that carries over into her infectious sounds, she has released on the likes of Uzuri, Meakusma, and Queen Mum's Mail. Always uplifting and filled with life-affirming melodies, her take on house is all about feeling good and sharing love.

On this week's podcast, Whodat's smooth mixing style allows the glory of her selections to shine though. Despite dealing with difficult personal circumstances of her own, on top of the pandemic we've all endured, her music never fails to bring joy. There is warm and diffusive soul from start to finish, with scuffed up beatdown, off-grid Detroit grooves and seductive deep house all adding up to the sort of heartfelt and authentic grooves that the MidWest, and Whodat herself, are so well loved for.

A summertime house mix from our dear friend Terri "Whodat" McQueen. Whodat understands the dance floor is spiritual and that music is a vehicle for transcendence. This mix will let your ears travel to Motor City Wine or Detroit's Downtown Synagogue, as she tastefully weaves through timeless house and modern dance music in a journey that will move your feet and your spirit.

Dublab - Heidi’s Magic Roundabout Guest Mix

Juanita's Mix 007 with Dee Diggs @dee_diggs

Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. I’m a DJ, a black queer woman, and a music lover. My DJ bio central theme is ‘a selectress with no inhibitions’ because if a song makes me feel something specific then I will play it for other people to see if it elicits the same feeling in them. I seek to keep everything I do playful yet intentional.

Q. How long have you been involved in the NY music scene?
A. I’ve been performing in NYC as a DJ since the spring of 2018 and moved here in the fall of that year. So it’s been 1 year and 9 months of being based here. I always had a hunch I’d enjoy living in Brooklyn and I do.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. This mix has a lot of nostalgic sounds and emotional vocal tracks on it.  It’s a very warm and personal mix. It’s a mix of voices and sounds for those who find themselves feeling lonely or trapped during this quarantine. This is the kind of music I would play for me and a good friend chilling at my home: tribal rhythms, soundscapes, 90’s boom bap, funk, and tributes to legends like Pharoah Sanders & Manu Dibango. I feel it conjures up a very groovy loving place to go to in your mind. Somewhere you can set your worries down & boogie.
