Manchester-based DJ Aletha's tastes stretch far and wide. She's just as comfortable meandering through blissed-out ambient and jazz, in its many forms, as she is shelling out electro, acid, jungle and breaks in a dark room. This versatility is exactly why she's had such a meteoric rise in the last few years.

As well as playing at a lengthy list of venues and festivals across Europe, when at home you can find her channeling her wealth of musical finds through her monthly radio shows on Sable and Melodic Distraction. 2021 has seen her rise even further up the ranks. On top of sets at We Out Here, Lobster Fest and Dimensions, she became one of this season's residents at The Warehouse Project, alongside the likes of Jaguar, India Jordan and Gina Breeze.

She steps up to the plate for this week's mix which is another testament to her ability to effortlessly blend different flavours and styles, from broken beat and UK bass to acid and vintage house.
