[not mastered recording - under construction]

let's celebrate this nye extravaganza covered in musique fantastique, sweet confetti trés chique! 🎊

hi there,

to begin with, my new years' wishes for all of you would be the sweetest, mischievous and most of al affectionate yet fulfilled 2025.
as i am a true expert by experience in the field (not to be confused with jerkinism s.v.p.), i assume that all those wishes and ‘good intentions’ are a ‘reflection’ of peoples’ dubious, or at least, questionable self-consciousness... but who said they're no good?…
...as nye is right behind us it is time to wrap all of this up; coming straight to the point where i’m firmly wishing all' of you them prayers mentioned above come true.
and check this out: the’re may are coming 10 more of them desires your way, if you come up with some proper ideas -within 15 seconds, ofc. (...)
however.. to me, being invited to play this 2h opening set at the legendary 'confetteria' party (or better explained as this phenomenal affair), felt more than an honour and major compliment of these same underground chiefs who brought me my dear debute @capsulerecordings’ first rave of summer '23. moreover, one told me that the music i played, took him back to the moment he started dj'ing.. him sharing this blissful memory of pure joy with me, just because of the tracks i selected… well, these feelings mean the world to me, as in the end, THAT'S what it is all about, right? house music was born to set friendly bounds over non-understandable conflicts and connects them souls, by dancing, smiling, and most of all, sharing their groove driven by chunky beats and cheeky hats.. anyhow, thank you for following me during my journey so far, and also for those who are made their sweet acquaintances only recently.
especially as my sharing is beyond acknowledgement, it takes some proper ass to dive into this sucre. approach regarding this kinda 'under-the-radar'- modus-operandi.
thus, as sucre. proudly endeavours being a flowerpower ambassador, with outermost enthusiasm and great respect the invitation to open confetteria: 'vive la nostalgie ~ chic & magnifique ~ anniversaire dixième' was accepted.
attention, attention les capitaine and les dammes; une petit piece-peux of candy showed some determinatión to deliver un punchy trip down friendly underground lanes, promising nothing to expect than a fine selection dug-up straight from the good oll' days, resembling underground aux un flourish touch!
as a result, it all ended up mixing 34 tracks, dragged out a variety of never-ending jams played in the past while unveiling some brand spanking-new unreleased sucre. tracks... 😼
unfortunately, the recording isn’t as clean as you should expect from sucre.; which is an obvious consequence for sleazy risks which were taken, e.g. running out of time, match-doubts, being fixed on certain tracks i had to find, some rough looping (fyi: quick-fixed), accompanied with sometimes slightly sloppy counting... but guess what. it turned out to be the perfect mix 'n match...!!😍 i never had such an experience before, playing a packed room this size, full of dressed-up handsome folks. time did not exist, and suddenly i was realising that this intense feeling of happiness took over my body and mind, while it seemed like i was playin' this never ending mix... ∞
while noticing i was surrounded by people who are really dear to me, i had the pleasure of catching faces expressing indulgence in its’ purest form.
well.. i simply adored it, and hearing some of my fav' slappy beats at this fancy, well-established soirée totally knocked it off. together we celebrated the arrivé of a fresh and friendly 2025, whilst covered in jackin' style confetti decadence... ✮✶𝄪
i wish you all one of a more fortunate, healthy & housy new year, topped with loads of glitter and sweet love..!! ❣
enchante!!

xxx sucre. 🍬

Esse é o meu set mais dançante e cheio de camadas. É o resultado de cinco anos de experiência como DJ e três anos como residente no Faísca, tocando em vários lugares do Brasil, com DJs do mundo todo, na terra e no mar. Percebi que música também é uma forma de transmitir informação e fortalecer a cena do Brasil, da América Latina, artistas queer e sons do mundo inteiro — ainda mais quando tem percussão, que eu amo. Fecho com uma faixa de 1996, You’ve Got To Be You, do Celvin Rotane, pra lembrar que, mesmo com todas as minhas referências, meus melhores sets sempre foram aqueles em que eu fui eu mesmo. Espero que você se divirta tanto quanto eu ❤️.

This is my most special set — danceable, complex, and full of layers. I let go of prejudices, because it was born for a dance floor as diverse as the set itself. It’s the result of five years of experience as a DJ and three years as a resident at Faisca, playing all over Brazil, alongside DJs from around the world, on land and at sea. During this time, I realized that music is also a way of sharing knowledge and strengthening the scene in Brazil, Latin America, queer artists, and sounds from all over the world — especially when there’s percussion, which I love. I close with a 1996 track, You’ve Got To Be You by Celvin Rotane, as a reminder that, despite all my references, my best sets have always been the ones where I was truly myself. I hope you have as much fun as I did ❤️

as you made it up here, i am really looking forward to meet you there!!' 🪩

enchanté!

DJ PROFILE:

Donny only started beatmatching at the age of 21; he always enjoyed raving to old skool garage and house music but never thought he could actually mix. It was only 'till he got messing with some MP3 mixing software (Atomix)...........then caught the bug.

Instead of going down the electronic route he managed to grab some dirt-cheap Technics SL-1210 Mk3 decks & SH-DJ1200 mixer (for a bargain £500 from his mate) and was soon trawling the record shops of Soho London and eBay tracking down those rare-as-rockinghorse-sh*t tunes!

Over time (and many £s spent) he has built up a vast & extensive collection of the very best Old Skool Garage nostalgic tunes from 1997-2002; he likes to call this the 'Golden Era'. Many, many hours of practice behind the decks gave him the skills and confidence to take the plunge and jet out to Laganas, Zante in 2005 for the entire summer to share his talent. There, he immediately gained residency in Wackabout/Sabotage Club and also DJd guest nights at Amnesia, Club Black & White and Footprint Beach Bar.

Since his return he has played out at various bars/clubs and private functions around central London and Surrey at bars & clubs in Wimbledon, Fulham, Croydon, Clapham and Chelmsford (Essex). He specialises not only in UKG but now Funky House which has mainly been driven by his passion for anything Hed Kandi – he owns a massive collection of their CD compilations dating back since 2001.

Having visited most of the European party islands over the years (Malia, Kos, Zante, Faliraki, Kavos and most importantly Ibiza) he has learnt to understand the ever-changing clubbing scene. Donny has the crowd in mind and endeavours to give them what they want. He loves to know his music inside-out so can drop tunes at the perfect spot to keep them jumping all night. Music-wise pretty versatile; he can also mix Trance and Drum & Bass. His partner in crime http://soundcloud.com/djmikechadwick is also somewhat of a master around the decks who specialises in HipHip and R&B of all years so, together will always have something in their boxes for the masses...

Not forgetting https://soundcloud.com/ross-peckham, his dj partner in house & garage music.

This Soundcloud page has his top mixes so lots of to keep you going. Check back to stay informed of his latest mixes. Feedback is always appreciated so you are welcome to leave comments on any.
