Presenting the first of three choice chunks of our Kings Day DJ set in Amsterdam this year. (Kings Day, if you don't know, is a national holiday in NL during which the whole place turns decidedly orange, drinks a whole lot of beer and goes nuts.) 

For the last few years, as part of the festivities, we've been hosting a little secret location sound system party during which we can cut loose and play an extended DJ set covering a whole bunch of bases - sometimes with friends guesting, sometimes (like this year) flying solo for the whole day, dropping as many solid personal favourites as we can along the way, natuurlijk.... 

So here's the first chunk, from early in the day, warming things up with a soulful, skanking, boom-bapping selection of edits, remixes, favourites and classics - hope you enjoy!

Download will pop up in a couple of weeks on the mailing list: https://kleptones.com/pages/contact.html

Or you can get it right now (along with Part 2 & 3 of this mix) if you become one of our awesome support team - Join up on Patreon or Liberapay, and become one of the folks that always gets everything (and more) way before anyone else...

Stephen Allkins (Love Tattoo) Live at SPIRIT OF HOUSE Tribute July 6, 2025 | SOUL OF SYDNEY #428

Sydney legend in full effect! For fans of Feel-Good Funk, House, Garage & Disco, here’s a special live recording from Stephen Allkins—the original “Mr. Disco” and mastermind behind [Love] Tattoo. Clocking in at two hours, this set captures a deep dive into the soulful heart of Sydney dance culture, recorded live on the Greenwood dancefloor at our beloved SPIRIT OF HOUSE tribute.

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who came down to the SPIRIT OF HOUSE jam. This beautiful community is what makes these parties so special. We’re proud to share the first of our live recordings from the event—a set from a true Sydney original, Stephen Allkins, also known as Love Tattoo.

Stephen’s legacy is woven through decades of Australian club culture. Starting his journey in 1978, he played a crucial role in bringing disco—and later house music—to Sydney’s underground. Affectionately called “Mr. Disco,” his legendary record collection, adventurous selections, and pioneering sets broke new ground across the city’s gay clubs, warehouse parties, and iconic venues, inspiring generations of selectors and dancers alike.

As a producer, Stephen’s releases as Love Tattoo pushed Australian dance music onto the international map. His single “History of Disco” was an instant classic, and “Bass Has Got Me Movin’” in 2001 earned ARIA nominations and global attention for its soulful, modern spin on house and disco. With a career spanning over 40 years, his contribution to the evolution of disco and house music in this city is unmatched.

This two-hour mix, recorded on the fly at Greenwood Hotel for the SPIRIT OF HOUSE tribute party, dives deep into early house, uplifting garage, and those soulful, grooving disco vibes that have come to define Sydney’s dancefloors.

Vibes4YourSoul Brasil Special Mixtape

Recently I had the pleasure of performing at Crystal Palace Bowl in London as part of the South Facing Festival, alongside a bunch of heroes & influences of mine, namely DJ Shadow, UNKLE (James Lavelle & Ronin), Morcheeba, Zero 7, Chali 2na (Jurassic 5) & A Skillz, as well as my good friend DJ Cheeba.

Here is a 33-track 90-minute mix including some of the music I played during my sets at the event, and tracks from the artists that performed. One-take business.

Incidentally, last time I was at Crystal Palace Bowl was back in 1996, when I was an extra in the video to Chemical Brothers & Noel Gallagher's No.1 single 'Setting Sun' (!), so it was quite the trip to be back nearly 30 years later for this event! So as a bonus, for pure self-indulgence, I included that track too.

The mix also kicks off with a nod to Busta Rhymes, who headlined the festival the following day.

It was nice to be able to play some of the music on big speakers that I was playing in my bedroom way back when, along with being on stage with some of the artists that dominated my record collection around about that period too.

Shout to Rob Soundcrash & team, New Analog Design, Ishani Chakra, Big Martyn, Lauren & Ben, all the artists, and to all those folks that showed love. This one's for y'all! x
