Odd Selects w/ Odqin: Soundcloud Edits - March 2024

Body Tools Presents: Jay Sound - Extended DJ Mix (VPN Radio - 07/17/24)

About The Mix:
"Essentially this is a love letter to the west, even though Detroit will always be the love of my life because it's where I’m originally from. The west will always be the place i feel the warmest & most like myself att. It’s the Palm Trees, the stunning sunsets, the blissful beaches to the vast & diverse landscapes of the desert to the mountainous national parks. Ive spent a good amount of time living on the west, and its had a great deal of an influence on me musically, so this is my thank you." - Jay Sound


About Our Guest:
A hidden gem & one of Detroit’s most underrated in the underground music scene. Jay’s style reflects his city and his long time spent on the west coast, curating a perfect blend sonically and musically of raw, deeply thought provoking & soulful. Learning from watching the great Theo Parrish spin for years while on the dance floor, he’s picked up a huge love for being well rounded, eclectic & versatile within any genre of music. Having a strong technical dance background in the Black American vernacular underground scene, Jay’s selecting approach is a no nonsense, no fluff storytelling take no matter the room he’s in. 

About the Show:

Body Tools Presents: Jay Sound - Extended DJ Mix from Detroit (VPN Radio - 07/17/24)

To celebrate 10 years of one of London’s most loved underground club nights, Tangent, Mr Bongo are thrilled to launch this new compilation series. Crafted by its two residents, John Gómez and Nick the Record, it aims to transmit a taste of Tangent’s spirit. A party rooted in inclusivity and open-mindedness, whose name captures the spontaneous switches in musical direction that are a defining element of their nights. For the compilation, the pair have cherry-picked a selection of their prized, rare and dancefloor-ready tracks from around the globe, that have soundtracked the past decade of parties.

Friends for close to 20 years, music lovers, record obsessives and internationally renowned DJs in their own right, John and Nick have two lifetimes worth of musical knowledge to draw from. John a long-standing NTS Radio resident and compiler for Music From Memory. Nick one of the UK’s go-to record dealers, resident DJ since the ‘90s at one of Japan’s pioneering parties, Life Force, and co-captain / co-edit-expert of Record Mission with Dan Tyler (Idjut Boys).

In 2014, the pair decided to bring some of Life Force’s grassroots principles to the UK, whilst channelling underground clubbing institution Plastic People’s meticulous attitude to sound. Tangent grew from being a small gathering of friends, to an established fixture in London’s nightlife, whilst always maintaining a strict no guest DJ policy. “As London’s clubs have become increasingly reliant on international guests, we wanted to emphasize the importance of a club night growing through its residents”, John and Nick reflect. With 10 years of the duo at the helm, an intimate connection between DJ and dancefloor has been built, allowing for freedom of expression on both sides of the decks.

Tangent reaches around the globe and across different eras to make connections that stimulate emotional reverberations in the unfamiliar. Where the blissfully Balearic ‘Laberinto’ by Miguel Perikás, goes hand-in-hand with the Cameroonian hip-house of King B.’s ‘Love is Crazy’. The thundering ‘Amek Amek’ by L'Innovateur Djoe Ahmed et le Zoukabyle, rubs shoulders with the soulful Caribbean-influenced touch of Champagn’s ‘Bel Ti Négress’. And Pellegrin El Kady’s afro-cosmic ‘Seiva de Carnaval’, crosses paths with Kajou’s Kompa disco anthem ‘Tet Chajé’.

Tangent’s longevity is in part down to it having always embraced contemporary sounds. The sub-rattling bass of Srirajah Sound System’s stunning Molam dub stepper ‘Si Phan Don Lovers Rock’ and the slow, woozy mantra of leftfield dancehall explorer Androo’s ‘Lyriso’, are two shining examples.

This compilation represents an ongoing dialogue between past and present, transporting listeners to the heart of a pure musical experience, where open minds and open hearts are eager to follow the tangent.
