Late Nite R'n'B [Mix/May 2022]

Summer has ended and Mellow Madness is back for the 7th season!

I'm lucky to host dj, producer, @deeply_rooted label boss, the one who's been a model, has inspired and continue to inspire lot of people to become a dj and to make music : @djdeepparis 😊 - who went into jazz-funk, soul, brazilan, electronic music & mooore for a 2 hours mix 🎶

This episode will be a bit special as it's a 3 hours show.
I'll take care of the first hour with music by Pharoah Sanders, Ramsey Lewis -
big though to all the artists who have left us this summer and past days. Thankfully new releases will cheer you up and surprise us!-
I'm happy to introduce again and again our new project on @chuwanaga - Fusion Affair which we're very proud!! Also, Capinera and new @pellegrinoo on @earlysoundsrecordings (it's Neapolitan scene guys 🇮🇹!!!), @str4ta - britfunk new generation 😍 and a treasure never released before from SASS on @highjazz 💫

LYL RADIO - Mellow Madness w/ Clémentine & Dj Deep 11.10.22

The tape recorder was running, this was about 3a.m. on a Chicago night 2001. My friday night party, "The Hole". We did this party for about a year in Chicago, it was private. I gave Toby many of these recordings, he named this tape like many back then I made by what songs struck him the most. This night is so clear still, many great moment and memories This first from the main boxes of my cassette collection will be an endless series of tape transfers of my music journey through life.

Next up in our Record Club Guest Mix series are Sanctuary, the moniker of Ben and Liam, a DJ duo from Australia who have been living in Berlin for the past 9 years. You may be familiar with their 'Life Classics' project. It started as an output for their own edits then later branched out into a mix series and club residency at OHM in Berlin.

Their mix landed in our inbox and from the get-go we knew it was destined for the Record Club series. Covering many spectrums of soul, it masterfully glides through tempos and unleashes a quiet storm inside you. Not ones to fear a vocal, it's stuffed full of soaring voices, sweet strings and the tightest grooves. An extended blend done right!

The guys pulled from of a couple of record bags and served it up on 1210’s at their Berlin base. As they described it "back to back burgers, boozas and records all the way". 

The mix is loaded with many of their favourites and a few dusty ones from the back of their shelves. Look out for cuts from Reggie S, Stage Coach, Edwynn Page and Herby Charles. It's packed with winners, some you knew, some you do now. A real steppers' delight.

Thanks so much to Ben & Liam for the mix.

With a hint of sun on the horizon, Limited Brothers step in with a delicate blend to guide us into the warmer weather. Based between Switzerland and France, the collective draw on their different backgrounds and push their diverse sounds around the Euro zone. 90 minutes of choice cuts best served with a fine drop and a fresh spring salad.

Jacques Renault @ The Lot Radio 06-24-2023

“Let’s set the scene. You’re walking through Williamsburg. It’s not the Williamsburg you remember but you know there’s a proper dance party happening somewhere. Oh, what’s this? A tiny fruit market? You see people entering but not exiting. Also the lights are dim for some reason. You poke your head in, cough up some cash, and you’re immediately greeted by a Pharoah Sanders remix playing loud (but not too loud) on Klipschorns and La Scalas. You’ve arrived at the Rocksteady Disco night at Milagrosa Mezcaleria. Next thing you know you’re making out.”

@redgreg

In anticipation for our upcoming Life Classics night at OHM, Red Greg serves up an hour of power to set the tone. Since he began collecting records in the late 80’s Red Greg has built a reputation as one of the finest DJs when it comes to sounds from across the disco sphere. His amassed knowledge of 70's Disco-Boogie and early 80's Modern Soul and Funk shines through in his edits and renowned Under The Influence compilation.
