Heeeere weee gooo. A little blast from the past. Starting off with slow and sexy swings and quickly upping the tempo to move ya hamstrings. Raphaël Top Secret played an all too sweet set at Post Bar in February 2019 (when most people woulda laughed at the idea of a pandemic hitting in a year, hah). And it’s all on tape. Hit it.

Up next on The Guest Mix we welcome DJ and producer duo Timm Sure & Richard Hampson, aka Coyote.

@coyotesounds

Since their first meeting (after both becoming residents at the historically important club “Venus” in Nottingham), between them they spent the 90s’ with residencies at many of the decades seminal parties including the Gardening Club, Venus, Deluxe, The Bomb and Stealth, as well as making regular appearances at events such as Andrew Weatheralls’ “Sabresonic” parties, Ministry of Sound “Open All Hours”, Club UK, Voodoo, Malibu Stacey, Golden, Progress, Moneypennys and even guesting as tour DJs for Underworld and James.

Coyote officially came into being in 2004, when Timm and Ampo decided to start making music together. Since taking on the moniker, Coyote have had a wealth of releases and remixes on a huge array of labels including International Feel, Claremont 54, Ene, Nang, Needwant, Aficionado, RVNG International, Polydor, Phantasy, Rothmans, Tusk Wax and their own “Is it Balearic?” itself, for artists including Odyssey, Charles Webster, Claire Mcquire, Soft Rocks, Runaway, Jose Padilla, Connan Moccasin, Chris Coco, the Backwoods and many, many more.
 After the birth of Coyote, Is It Balearic? Recordings followed in 2007. Initially conceived as merely a platform for the original Ltd Edition Coyote releases (all of which sold out very quickly) it has since branched out into releasing music from artists including Tiago, Downtown Party Network, Max Essa, Hardway Brothers, Justin Robertson, Social Disco Club, Midlake, Smith & Mudd, Mushrooms Project, and Craig Bratley, Leo Mas, Sorcerer as well as breaking new artists such as The Project Club, Giulio Dj, Ahiki, Rompante, and Pharao Black Magic, Daniel Whitehead. 
Is it Balearic? Also boasts a list of remixers that reads like a who’s who of the current Balearic music scene. From Norways dub disco legend Rune Lindbaek, Belgiums world renowned Aeroplane, to underground pioneers such as Andrew Weatherall, Hardway Brothers Phoreski, Pacific Horizons, Time & Space Machine, Prins Thomas, The Backwoods, Last Waltz, Begin… (the list goes on)...  
Thanks to their distinctive sound as both DJs and music makers, Coyote find themselves regularly invited to play music all across the UK and further afield, in places like Japan, Ibiza and Scandinavia.

Their latest 12”/mini album ‘Everything Moves, Nothing Rests’ has just been released on my last guest Phil Cooper’s label, NuNorthernSoul. Go check it via bandcamp.

Coyote have kindly put together a real treat of a mix spanning an hour or balearic, downtempo, world, italo, dub and house! The mix is available via my bio and soundcloud page- enjoy!

"I assembled a mellow mix full of records that have been setting aside for a special occasion! This selection takes in many genres but keeps the vibe pretty chill.
Fits perfectly while driving down a coastal road with your old Benz SL 280… Or you just might enjoy this mix with headphones at the office, basically… up to you :)" -@marwanfilali

Karol XVII & MB Valence Deliver a Stunning Organic House Remix of Green George & Tabia’s ‘Ofana Nawe’.

We’re proud to welcome back long-time Déepalma friends and Polish production masters Karol XVII & MB Valence with their exceptional new remix of ‘Ofana Nawe’ by Australian DJ/producer Green George and South African vocalist Tabia. Out on October 31, 2025, the duo bring their signature depth and warmth to this already soulful original, reimagining it into a lush organic house journey that captivates from the first beat.

The duo's remix unfolds with a warm, rolling bass groove, complemented by intricate synth layers and a fluid rhythm driven by shuffling shakers, tambourines, and hats. It’s a perfect balance of groove and atmosphere—an elegant production that highlights both Tabia’s expressive vocal delivery and Karol XVII & MB Valence’s timeless touch in crafting immersive soundscapes.

Also included in the release is an exclusive Karol XVII & MB Valence Acoustical Version—a truly cinematic, not to say epic reinterpretation that elevates the emotional depth of Ofana Nawe into something entirely transcendent.

Our friendship with Karol XVII & MB Valence spans well over a decade, marked by a shared dedication to authentic electronic music. Over that time, they’ve delivered several standout remixes for the label, released their acclaimed collaboration with Lazarusman ‘Whispers’—remixed by the great Gorge—and most recently topped the charts with their inspired rework of Yves Murasca & Rosario Galati’s ‘Close Your Eyes’.

With their remix of Green George and Tabia's ‘Ofana Nawe’, Karol XVII & MB Valence once again showcase their deep musical sensibility and reinforce the creative bond that’s been part of the Déepalma story for over a decade.

Out October 31, 2025 on Déepalma Records.

DPR PREMIERE: Green George & Tabia - Ofana Nawe (Karol XVII & MB Valence Airplay)

This song is about "Soldiers for Hire", Raincoats are far from the concerns these men and women worry about.   Bravery, Skill, and Intensity are broadstroke traits that are engrained in every one of them I would have to say...  I know one who has valiantly and proudly served in US Army Rangers as well as the Finnish Army and brother I know you are reading this.  I know you will return after each "hire", I know "SISU" will show you the way:). HOPE EVERYONE ENJOYS THIS ONE THAT COMES FROM MY SOUL...
