Interview & Tracklist

Off The Record Mix Series 21: Jura Soundsystem

"A mellow collection of melodic tunes, including many personal favourites from my original, Toronto-based Good Timin' night and radio show (RIP). It's an all-vinyl session, and I had a lot of fun going through a bunch of my records that I just got out of storage. I was a little rusty on the Technics, so the blends are loose and carefree; a bit like how I might mix after a few glasses of vino! " - @jexopolis

Guest my by @valentin-hauptmann

Valentin, who is the brain behind the new "Baile de Mainman" channel is taking care for the newest SOW edition with music ranging from AOR/ Prog- and Folk Rock into New Wave, Italo-Disco and other cosmic 70s/80s treasures.

The multilingual (mainly) Euro sound promises an irrepressible desire for freedom paired with a wild longing for togetherness. It immediately lets you drift off onto a sunny coastal road along the mediterranean sea, surrounded by loud radio and fresh air…

And in the best case, ending with the 114min, you will step out in an optimistic and hopeful mood! 


PS: for all the record nerds, keep an eye his yt channel with the link below. There will follow some uploads of his finds which got fittet into this mix.

Faking Jazz Together 🎷

For us, Norm is the ultimate definition of a selector, and many in the community will agree. Needless to say, we were incredibly excited when he joined TNP as a resident. His new show “Faking Jazz Together” is an excellent addition to his other projects, which include(d) Memorabilia, Bayetë and Native Dance.

Norm’s ability to unearth the warmest, sweetest and deepest sounds is unprecedented. The first installment of his residency stole our hearts: a jaw dropping, incredible selection of lush music that we didn’t know we needed to hear. We recommend you to listen to this one eyes closed, shoes off, laying in the sun. 

Words from Norm: “This opening Faking Jazz Together show connects the dots between songs cleverly juggling with chords voicing and offbeat progressions. Spanning from major studios productions, One-Hit-Wonders and confidential amateur acts, these titles share a charming perspective of these codes while treasuring a genuine song writing. 

This is my fantasized outtake of what could have been a local fusion jazz program back then. It features biting AOR, hazy Chanson, fierce Boogie, Japanese Bossa impersonation and wistful Italian score.”

Start your week right with this mix by Gramigna. An all-Italian excursion into dancefloor obscurities from the late 70s and early 80s. Gramigna remembers being obsessed with records since the tender age of 10 when he first got his way into his parents' collection and has been collecting ever since. He self identifies as a "nerd" who cleans every single record after each DJ set - a quality we surely wish we saw more often amongst record collectors and DJs today, who love to pull records out of their sleeves squeezing the first grooves of the records with their dirty greasy fingers like they're a fish or something.
We hope you enjoy this 1 hour and a half of delightfully thick research, thick as a slice of mozzarella di bufala campana in the deepest valleys of Lazio. Thank you Gramigna for this precious mix, to the highest standards of Denominazione di origine controllata e garantita (DOCG) ❤️

'tis not everyone's favorite season of the year, but definitely the last mix of the decade. What better way to end it than let the high priest of Synth-Pop (Episcopal Minister John Zahl) read us the mass. John has prepared almost 5 hours of musical cleansing (recorded live et at Public Records on Oct 26, '19), which hopefully should be enough to wash you free from your sins of the last 10 years. Amen

Near ubiquity is something unimaginable for anyone, even if we consider how the internet helps us transcend distances and timezones, but it seems to be easily accomplished by this vinyl-loving and show-hoarding selector that we have as our special guest at this edition of Gop Cast. Bianca Lexis is the kind of DJ that can accumulate as many outlets for displaying her immense creativity as opportunities to show off her gigantic collection: she seizes them all without diluting neither her unique collecting sensibility nor her special selecting ability. And from a steady slot at Dublab in her hometown of LA to her own spot at NTS aptly named ‘Panorama Heaven’ everything she does carries the same care for the audience and commitment to share her treasures that is shown here.
