It's that time again. As the weather decides what it's doing I've been thinking about summer, and day parties, had a right rummage before my set at Ldn East last month for Forward Motion and was playing all sorts of old bits deciding what to play, recorded this as a little practice mix but it's one of my favourite sessions I've done for ages. Bit of a concoction of Deep House grooves to open the mix and slowly moving into some more jackin and techy stuff before ending with some garage favourites.

Ossom Sessions // 24.01.2025 // by West Coast Swingaz

A Bill Withers Classic done in a 2025 Way..A few years ago my artists Paul Metsa & Willie Walker were opening for Joan at The Dakota jazz club in Minneapolis. We talked about something together. For starters I did this Remix with Joan and some of her band. I played the new feel bass track and added my vocal. Sometimes less is more if the emotion that moves listeners is there. One of my kind followers commented "Can’t stop replaying this! Absolute masterpiece." Thanks dear! Z.

Forgotten Gems 83-95 - Mixed by Tony Safe

This one’s special. ❤️
“Closer Than Close” was one of my all-time favourites back in 1997 — the golden era when I first discovered real clubbing and the magic of UK Garage.

There have been many remixes over the years, but this version hits different…
A deep, soulful blend of deep house and afro house energy — impossible to box into one genre, but perfect for sophisticated clubs, lounge bars, cocktail sessions, or sunset sets.

A collaboration with my Polish brother Deeprule, this remix is exclusive to SoundCloud for now.

If you’re feeling it —
💜 Drop it a heart
🔁 Repost it
📩 And DJs: send me your email for the extended mix — an early Christmas present will be waiting in your inbox.

Enjoy the vibe.
BIG UP Rosie Gaines & Mentor!

ARUHTRA is an international DJ with over 26 years of experience in the music industry. Known for his dynamic sets, he spent a decade playing across the globe for Nikki Beach, gaining a reputation for bringing high-energy house music to some of the world’s most exclusive venues. From 2020 to early 2024, Aruhtra was a resident DJ at the prestigious Puente Romano and NOBU Resort in Marbella, further solidifying his status in the luxury music scene.

His collaborative track with Kings of Tomorrow’s Sandy Rivera, “Love Somebody Else”, became a notable hit, showcasing his talent in producing crowd-moving music. A follow-up track titled “My Rose” also made waves, reaching No. 4 on Traxsource’s Melodic / Progressive House chart. Two more exciting collaborations with Sandy Rivera are lined up for 2025.

Aruhtra has worked with some of the most respected names in the industry, including Lost Frequencies, Sonny Fodera, Martin Solveig, Solomun, and Sam Divine. His emotive house track “You Stopped Loving Me” was signed to 3 Beat Records for a 2024 release, and he has been tapped for an official remix of OMI’s “Poker Face”, set for mainstream release in summer 2025.

Aruhtra’s recent chart success highlights include:
	•	A No. 1 on Beatport Dance Pop with “One More” ft. Kye Sones (Total Freedom Recordings)
	•	A No. 1 on Beatport Funky Releases with “All For You” (PLAYEDiT Records)
	•	A No. 4 on Beatport Tech House with “Waiting” (Aruhtra Music)
	•	A No. 4 on Traxsource Melodic / Progressive House with “My Rose” (with Sandy Rivera)

In 2025, he also signed three tracks to the iconic PURE GARAGE label as part of their 25-year anniversary compilation—another testament to his versatility and credibility across genres.

He is also set to release a tech house collaboration with Martin Ikin on Know Where Records, cementing his place at the forefront of cutting-edge club music.

A true craftsman of the DJ booth, Aruhtra’s unique blend of open-format grooves and his passion for live performance ensure that every set delivers an unforgettable musical experience.

Born and bred Londoner Tom Frankel is emerging as one of the nu breed of extra talented dance producers breaking out onto the scene. 

Over the last few years he has honed his trade by playing at legendary clubs such as The Egg, where he is a regular feature, plus many gigs at huge London clubs such as Studio 338, The Cause, Lightbox, Fabric in the UK. While also doing many seasons in Ibiza playing at Sankeys, Privilege, Viva, Zoo project, Hypercolour, and underground haven Plan Be.


Tom has played alongside industry greats such as Bushwacka!, Steve Lawler, Subb-An, Dubfire, Nina Kraviz, Julian Perez, Darius Syrossian, Bicep and Move D, but it is now that Tom himself is starting to take the limelight. 

His productions are fresh, forward thinking, and always with the dance floor in mind, creating his own unique fusion of House music where he has releases and remixes on labels such as Burnski's label Constant Sound and iO (Mulen) imprint OLDiViBES and more recently with his and Dayne Harper own imprint Council Work receiving a lot of attention, with support from Ben UFO, Call Super and Loco Dice amongst others, plus no1 chart positions on Beatport and Deejay.de for the first two releases. 

Tom has earned the admiration of his peers and rightly so, he’s a chap with a lively, transfixing personality and his sets are spirited and distinct, marrying a rich medley of current house, garage and minimal music with sounds from a bygone era. His rapid climb to success is attributable to his hard work and endearing character, which combined with his expert musical knowledge make him a serious one to watch in the future.
