listening queue

Enigmatic Japanese producer Shinichi Atobe evokes a range of sensations in his music that few others can. Whether he's listened to in headphones on a long journey, on the sofa on a lazy Sunday, deep into an afters or during a peak time reprieve, the rich, vivid strokes of his heady work has equal power to relax, heal, move, energise, envelop and flaw. 

Another scholar of patient tension-building in electronic music, Prins Thomas included Atobe in the footnote homage of his sixth album, alongside luminaries from all sounds and ages. As a mark of how much Atobe's work has impacted on his own, Thomas has paid tribute with an hour mix.

Praise You: a Shinichi Atobe tribute mix by Prins Thomas

on a summer night a few years back me and DTM Funk(@dtmfunk) played a 7+ hr eclectic set in the garden of De School(2016-2024). it turned out to be one of my favorite sets ever. flowing slowly from jazz, r&b, soul, boogie and house to trippy electronics and back. relax and unwind!

this is part I

****Physical Cassette Mixtape Available Our Bandcamp****

I heal myself weekly with the music I play. I listen deeply to the words buried within; the intention behind the lyrics either peppered-in or chorused. So much of the house music I connect with is rooted in love. It’s rooted in desire and hope. It’s rooted in narrative, “Do you want to trip with me?”, “I’ll outstretch my hand”, “I won’t forget about you, you won’t forget about me, we won’t forget about love vibrations!”. I listen to the messages to remind myself what I need and why I continue to move forward.

Vol.2 is represented in two mixing styles; long-melded blends (Trippin’ On Love) and fast, tight radio-style cut mixes with overdubs (Slammin’ With Love). Both convey the deep need for connection to one’s body and to others. It’s this connection energy that I find so powerful about house music’s healing magic.

Xoxo Octo Octa

Went into this closing set a bit more open sonically. Wanted to hit the "anything goes" button being it's a Sunday afternoon on Easter weekend and people have people been partying 40+ hours. It's not often you get a crowd that's up to dance to everything ... from Dexter to No Doubt to Calle 13 to 2008 stage diving electro lol. Thank you New York, that was awesome! Enjoy =)

Recorded @ Nowadays on March 31st, 20204

salam ! 

i thought it important to stay true to the emotions that birthed seed. so the first one is from me 

i found this process very difficult, got stuck in the headspace of wanting to make it a good ‘mix’ but it just not working while staying true to these feelings. and i realised that it’s not meant to be make sense, feeling these emotions simultaneously is jarring, it’s abrupt highs and lows, it’s stop and start, it’s silence. cold and warm. it’s the complete disruption of flow following slight cohesion- conflicting. it’s disrupted diversions into altering soundscapes

i had a go at this a few times, and this version was my last attempt. i cried the whole way through and it was on that very spicy full moon, it’s raw- but it’s honest

this is how heartbreak and introspection sound to me 

big love

INTERSTELLAR DOCKING SCENE REMIX

Однажды ты оставил файл,
который должен был стереть.
Но не смог.
⠀
“Сохранённая ошибка” — это баллада о тех чувствах,
которые не поддаются логике,
о воспоминаниях, которые живут даже после выключения системы.
⠀
Эта песня — не о программных сбоях.
А о тех, кого мы носим внутри,
даже когда они исчезли с экрана.

Просто Сохранённая Ошибка

note to self and whoever's looking at my profile: if you're bored and uninspired, listen to radiant records, c-, melbourne deepcast, and pi pi pi mixes. or just listen to KEXP

Immersed in music from a young age, Suze Ijó's path inevitably led her into the world of song and dance. The Rotterdam native found herself drawn to dancing and collecting records; a passion that notched up a level after she became a First Floor member.

A communal hub that used to exist in her home city, the space was designed for music lovers to come together to play, listen and talk, as well as collaborate on private events that are influenced by David Mancuso's infamous Loft parties.

That Loft manifesto feeds into the sounds in her own DJ sets too, whether in the booth or on the waves. From infectious Chicago house to uplifting 80s cuts and warm, soulful grooves; the mood transports you back to the heydays where dance floors were becoming spaces for freedom, self-expression and connection. It's music to bring people together, music to get you moving, and music to lose yourself in.
