As we near the year's end, the amazing Producer/DJ and our dear Friend Daidu makes sure we go out with a bang. For Daidu, hailing from our hometown, the journey began with drumming, his interest in different grooves and beats eventually lead him to producing and DJing. Each music genre's distinctive mixing style continues to fuel his passion to explore a playground of endless possibilities.

This eclectic mix embodies a fusion of old-school hip-hop, jazz, paired with Chicago and Detroit influences, unified by one core element: soul. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Q-Tip, Kendrick, Yussef Dayes, Kyle Hall, and DjRUM, Daidu crafts a sound that pushes our sound and exemplifies top-tier DJing.

As the sun rises, Daidu sets the vibe for this mix, going beyond the usual. He tries out funky mix timings, blending techno, enjoying the freedom to mess with time signatures. The mix builds up to an awesome trip, flipping between deep, heavy, and mind-bending sounds that suck you right in.

Enjoy these 80 minutes by Daidu.
