1) Tell us a bit about yourself and your record collection.

I'm Dom and I run Miles Away Records. I've been collecting records for 10 or so years now. When I first started collecting records I was properly into northern soul. I remember the first proper record I purchased was a one sided bootleg of The Snake. Since then I've been lucky enough to have been to record shops all over the world from Peru to Berlin. Lots of my records have come via tips and recommendations from people I;ve worked with, record shop owners or my own personal research. I try to buy the majority of my records in record shops as I feel like you get better records that way which you might not have considered before but over the years I've spent a fair amount buying online via discogs and ebay. I have a particular love for soulful music be that soul 45s, jazz, jazz-funk, latin, salsa, rare groove, MPB and of course modern and northern soul and my record collection largely reflects that. 

2) 45/7 is all about celebrating the 7". Can you tell us a bit about what you love about the format.

I love 45s. I love being able to take a small box of 45s to a gig over your shoulder. I love the louder cut. The shorter time lengths keeping you on your toes. The price. The label artwork. The house bag. There's just such a simple beauty to them. The original idea of my label Miles Away was to put out soulful 45s from all over the world because of my love for the format. 

3) One hour of vinyl goodness... can you talk us through your selection for your 45/7 mix?

The mix consists of recent finds, classics and personal favourites. I wanted this mix to reflect my DJ style and I always prefer mixes which start slower and build up. I tried to keep it flowing as much as possible, blending where I could or chopping in where I thought it was right. I wanted the mix to keep the listener engaged and wondering what was coming next so in the latter end we dip into some Caribbean and salsa records to keep things interesting.

4) Where can people catch you / listen to your music? 

I have a monthly radio show on Soho Radio. Wednesday 6-8pm UK BST. Every 4 weeks. Aside from that, you can catch me Djing around London and beyond regularly playing at venues such as the Jazz Cafe, The Century Club, BBE Store, Brilliant Corners as well as running my own nights at The Jago club in Dalston.

My name is Cosmo, I am a DJ born and raised in Ohio currently based in NYC. I am most known for my high-energy sets that incorporate house, club and r&b. I always try to bring people back in time with familiar tunes in a whole different way. 

I grew up to music always being played from the time I woke up till the time I went to bed. I started DJing when I was 15 from my older cousin visiting from NY showing me dance tracks he was spinning and I fell in love. It has been a long journey but I have found so much healing in music. My main focus is to bring us queer poc to the front and amplify our voices.

Notes on the Mix ///
"Instead of a sweaty set I usually do, I created this mix to release some of the feelings I've had over the last couple of months. Something you can listen and relax to. These are some of my all-time favorite songs that i've been playing non-stop. I hope you enjoy. Mwah <3 "

Sean Lyles embraces the potential of music as nourishment and relishes in the process of painting a colorful picture with sound. His speciality lies in harnessing deep, pulsating basslines and crisp harmonics to enhance flow and immersion in any given space. 


Shaped by constant travel from his formative years to now, his resonance with various pockets of culture has imprinted on his sound signature through unique melodies and soulful beats. Free from an affinity to a particular time period or genre, Sean tunes into his feelings to search for the records that are rich in emotion and saturated with soul. Sourcing music from the hole in the wall shops in New York and beyond, he seeks inspiration from every corner of his travels. 


Behind the decks, Sean channels his love for the dance floor into vibrant sets, alive with both emotion and sound. Fueled by a desire for communal movement, his repertoire consists of rhythms that are easily accepted by the moving body. He flows from R&B to driving disco, while infusing melodic techno and giving detailed consideration to house music in all its forms and flavors.
