2nd hour of Rocket Radio Espresso #009 by Richard Fribert:

Swedish Paris-based selector DJ Richard Fribert joins us for the last hour. Richard is the right brain-half behind the YouTube-channel Quartier Groove and throws nights in Paris with the crew No Standards. He had a strong 2019 with gigs in Paris, Tokyo, Copenhagen, Brussels and Stockholm and right now, we are waiting for a handful of his own unreleased edits to see daylight.

About the mix:
After having spent the last 4 months in Corsica, Richard draws inspiration from all around the Mediterranean sea. From Italian AOR & Italo, to Swedish Moroder and Righeira-inspired bombs, to holy catholic disco and odes to the holy Madonna, Richard takes us on a fast trip through the hot Mediterranean summer. Be ready for hands in the air moments towards the end with Greek trance, Richard's own unreleased Libanese 90's pop edit, and some brutal arabic curveballs.
