Tosiは東京出身のDJ 。90年代後半から都内クラブシーンでキャリアを積み、ハウス、ディスコ、コズミック、バレアリック、イタロ・ディスコ、シンセポップを縦横無尽に織り交ぜる独自のグルーヴでフロアを魅了してきた。2005年にはコレクティブ兼レーベル「Timothy Really」を共同設立し、シーンの中核に関わる。近年は同郷のSisiとともにC.O.M.P.A.S.名義でリエディットトラックをリリースし、国内外のDJからサポートを受けている。

Glaz-go Skills!

Max Hammer @maxhammur delivers a tip-top recording for MIX035​, a sun-drenched blend of boogie-disco juice that glides between eras and continents with real flair. No fancy flips, just straight-up entertaining grooves served as they were meant to be heard ​, and like the man himself, full of character​.

Now based in Naarm/Melbourne, Max (a Glaswegian native) is the co-organiser of SANGAM, a fresh monthly celebration of sound, culture, and style ​that's hosted in some of the city’s most ridiculously cool and intimate venues. Influenced by early sound system sessions at The 78, late nights at Le Cheetah, and more, he brings with him a slice of Glasgow’s underground spirit.

This mix is steeped in that same energy​...think off-peak mystical grooviness that feels both nostalgic and new. From the driving pulse of Tabou Combo’s “Let’s Do The Groove”, to the smoky uplift of Eloise Whitaker’s “I Will Fight”, Max digs with heart, jumping borders with ease.

Proper inspiring stuff from the man.

Live From Orbita - 001 - Raphaël Top-Secret

After a long spell of Goa Trance and other electronic music since the 90s here in Anjuna Beach, I sat on the beach over a bowl of Mayo with Frietjes and a lobster one day when it hit me, I realized I should assemble an A-Team of the best diggers and edit makers to start a new label based around the genres where my music journey began back in 80s Amsterdam -  Disco / Synth-Pop and New Wave, perhaps even some early House. After some deliberation over a big pitcher of warm Heineken with ice cubes, I decided on the name Smutty Edits. I will get some help on curation and Art Direction from friends in Europe, some of whom feature on the upcoming releases. Let's see what we can come up with. Bear with me!

If you message me, please be patient, I don't log on to Soundcloud very often
