Pre Christmas Shenanigans

This London-based Scotsman played a crucial role in London’s esteemed SlothBoogie label for the best part of a decade. At the turn of 2024, he unveiled a new solo project, and it was here that Kenny Blacksmith was born. With time to hone his studio craftsmanship whilst digging within his extensive record collection, a new direction has been set.

He’s a dancer and clubber at heart, with an affinity for the rhythmic instrumentals often found on the B-side. Think deep dubs and acid rollers with a dancefloor focus. As a result his sets are filled with energy and depth, composed with long organic blends and at times a subtle elan. 

Working closely with friends and family, 2024 will see the release of several analogue excursions. His debut release ‘Monday’s Fish’ appeared on Natural Frequencies ‘Harmonic Frequency Vol 1’ and garnered support from Ralph Lawson, Sean Brosnan, Make A Dance, Jive Talk, Emerald to name a few.

The Deep Groove N14

What started as a deep/groovy solo-set at a speakeasy margarita bar, turned into a spontaneous dancefloor takeover, when Saracosta dropped in like a ferry into the courtyard. With lots of raw talent and intuition to navigate a chaotic tangle of unfamiliar playlists of mine, she just stitched together a genre/reality-bending, joyful ride that had the crowd smiling and dancing. It was unplanned, unfiltered, and unhinged fun, the kind of fused magic that only happens in Berlin when music stays at the core!

FRI's 42nd release, 'The Way You Like It' EP by Glasgow-based DJ and producer Kokode, showcases the label's commitment to quality deep house through four tracks that reflect classic aesthetics — clean, minimal arrangements enriched with lush chords, airy pads, and subtle vocal elements. With a keen sense for groove and mood, Kokode's 'Outerspace' closes the EP on a deeper note: a dusty, late-night journey built on looping, wobbly chords that gradually spiral into a hypnotic, mysterious groove.
