Guesting

Majestically dropping in with magic mix number fifty eight is Merchant @merchantrecordslondon

The tag team of Harry and Al based outta London were firmly bitten by the digging / vinyl bug during their uni years and continue to collect with the goal of 'If it's good, it's good" regardless of genre. 

You get a sense of that here with this mix as they move through a number of genres with ease! Enjoy! :)

M a g i c a s t - 0 5 8 🎇 - Merchant

The Merchant duo of Al and Harry step up for Loose Connections 001 and I couldn't think of a more fitting start for this series. These guys walk the musical spectrum daily digging deep into all things World Music and beyond, which really does show in this carefully selected 2 hour delight of a mix. With a residency on @balamii radio and a raft of other guest mixes, edits played by our favourite dj's on international stages, regular party slots in The Jago in Dalston and beyond these lads are worth keeping an eye on!

Loose Connections 001 - Merchant

Harry e Al são os meninos do Merchant, uma dupla de diggers dedicados de Londres que procura e compartilha música que faz bem para a alma. Para o seu mix na Alter Disco, eles nos levam por um passeio através de gêneros, cheio de jóias estranhas e incríveis. Recomendamos sintonizar nessa frequência e ficar até o fim da jornada! 
------

Harry and Al are the boys from Merchant, a pair of passionate diggers from London who look to find and share music that is good for the soul.

For us, they wanted to do something a little bit different. The result is a genre-hopping ride of weird and wonderful gems. We recommend you plug in, and stay for the full journey.

Slow Fire Disco Machine is the alias behind Andrea Carassai and Giacomo Fiorani. Their friendship behind the decks started as Polyphonic, then became quickly something different giving birth to Slow Fire Disco Machine, an entity exploring sounds from the world with no restriction of genre, with eyes (and ears) to groove and good vibes.
When they're not digging or djing, SFDM runs a YouTube Channel where  they upload their finds  & edits.
They also curate the "Espresso"  monthly show on Rocket Radio Milano, where they often invite friends from all over the world
