DJ Possum & Myles Mac @DramaRadioBar · Aug 02 2025

This year the Sputnik stage hosts a start-to-finish takeover by the rascals at The Gun – formerly the dirtiest discopub in East London until its tragic closure in March this year: rest in sleaze! To honour its unholy spirit we decided to reach out to pub landlord and flame-keeper Nick Stephens to invite the Gun Club first team down to FM. Not only did they say yes, they fielded Vladimir Ivkovic and Lena Willikens, Tia Cousins, Daisy Moon and – it must be said – an undersung hero of London clubland: bloghouse original and techno survivor Casper Clark.

Nick and Casper will cut the ribbon on Sputnik with a two-hour B2B, which might sound a tiny bit like this warm-up session recorded on the first day of 2025. “Nick and I had the honour of opening up The Gun’s last and final New Year’s Day festivities,” recalls Casper, “before Dan Avery, Lukas Wigflex, Tia Cousins and Nathan Wilkins. Some lineup, that!

“In truth we were confronted by a biblical downpour and the slowest of starts, but if anything that emboldened us to dig a little deeper and play even more eclectically that we’d normally be inclined.” Ah, the E-word. A lot of DJs claim to be eclectic, don’t they? Usually playing a heady mix of techno, house, tech-house and everything in between. Not so with these two, as demonstrated on their finely crafted yet freeform, almost supernaturally guided mix, which wanders like a ghost from underwater dub through to ‘80s minimal wave, Muslimgauze and misty Balearica, before setting us afloat on gentle waves of drug-chug. No requests, please!

For ONOMIX 013 we are extremely psyched to present a mix from Tokyo based selector / wizard Gold 43. 

A solid fixture of the Tokyo underground scene for the better part of a decade now, Gold 43 cut his teeth working at the esteemed Face Records in Shibuya, where he would have first pick of the wax coming through the door. Building up an arsenal of 90's rave rarities and house gems that define his truly unique style. 

Inspired by the scene and the DJs around him he began spinning his tunes around town, eventually kicking off the party series COMBO at Illas bar in Shimokitazawa, with friend and fellow 90's house nut Jima. A club night where the two of them, plus some special guests, could spin records true to their own style. 

"This mix was totally made with the idea of playing my favourite dance music. I selected some of my records that I have that are unique and I like! 🤟" - Gold 43

After knowing Daisuke for a couple years now we are delighted to be releasing this mix. Such a sick DJ with a dope style, and a total legend too! 

We hope you enjoy! 🔉

Need something to listen to en route to FM? Toshiki Ohta has got you covered

As both a meticulous technician and a built-in-the-90s raver, Toshiki Ohta is the kind of DJ who can mega-mix his way out of the tightest genre corner. Which is handy, because his gift to FM this year is a near-three-hour mix crafted entirely from this year’s line-up – a task so excessively awkward you have to wonder if there’s some sort of masochistic kink going on here.

Now the risk, obviously, is completing the task to the letter only to deliver a rizzless plodathon of C-tier tunes and awkward transitions. But this is Tosh we’re talking about: no half measures! The result is monument to the moment: hoving into view under a fog of ambient Midland, it starts heady and heads-y, flowing through chuggy electro (auratekh, Lena Willikens) and rugged club tesselations (Ikonika, Prince of Deptford) before hitting a shinier seam of techno intensity (Roza Terenzi, Benton) and exploding into confetti cannon rave (Angel D’Lite, Big Ang).

Unsurprisingly, Tosh rates it as one of the most time-consuming sets he’s ever put together (including his recent eight-hour Goodhood mix). “It was a massive researching process – there were spreadsheets,” he sighs, “because I treat every mix that I do like I’m recording a mix CD in 1995.” Standing O, please!

Thursday, July 31st, 2025 

Excited to be back in London. Haven't seen Pat in ages. It's been seven years since we first met back in Copenhagen. When I first saw this guy and we got talking, I quickly realised I had gained a friend for life. We grew fond of each other so quickly, it's kind of romantic now I think of it. London seems to be treating him right, can't wait to see for myself. Brought my main man Gustav along for the ride–the biggest supporter of the NES/DJ Popup community and the best dance companion there is. G and I have been waltzing around with our roller bags, looking three times each way at every crossing. Silly tourists. Made it to The Chesham to catch up with Ronan and Naomi. I've been a fan of them for quite some time (ddwy is their project), and I'm happy that we finally got to meet in person a couple of years ago (Love to R and N!!)

We've got dinner with Pat tonight, and then we're linking up with some of our friends after (S/O to the crew!!). South London tomorrow...curious, I've never really hung out there. Also, finally reuniting with Jamie (I think 2022 was the last time we saw each other). We started as online friends and then made it IRL a couple of years ago. Super grateful he's pulling strings to set up tomorrow's Club Cheek party (thx to the whole Social Records Society crew!!). First time playing outside Denmark in a while. Hope it goes well, in good company tonight.

* Recorded live at Club Cheek for Social Records Society
