The latest Ransom Note Mix comes courtesy of Heretic. We caught up with him to find out what we could about the mix and the man behind it; 

Where was the mix recorded? 

This one was put down in my flat, just next to London Fields on a beautiful, sunny morning. 

What would be the ideal setting to listen to the mix? 

Wherever man! Everyone has their own preferences, my idiosyncrasies are mine so stick it on wherever you want to, make it your own. 

What should we be wearing? 

I suppose preferably something comfortable for lightly dancing in, perhaps a velour tracksuit. Or just entirely nude. Add a banana hammock or sports bra to the latter, according to your sex, for maximum comfort.

My 3-hour set from the last Serpentine takeover at Parquette for their monthly 24-hour party series, Flip, at the end of September.
I played from 7 to 10 a.m., after an intense night packed to the max.
Thanks to the dancers who made it through those early hours — I hope it brings back some nice memories <3

Josh Cheon grew up in northern New Jersey, just outside New York City
where he spent his weekends dancing at goth clubs and digging for
records. He moved to San Francisco in 2006 and joined gay DJ
collective Honey Soundsystem from 2007 to 2017. His love of
underground ‘80s music pushed him to start Dark Entries in 2009, a
record label specializing in reissuing lost music from that era as
well as contemporary bands referencing those analog sounds.

Public Display of Affection consists of Jonah Considine and Tam Tam, the core DJs, residents and organisers of Berlin soiree PDA, whose truly underground and headturning parties in the city act as a celebration of alternative dance culture. Optimo, Babyschon, Curses, John Loveless, Boys’ Shorts and our very own Erol Alkan are all artists who have guested at PDA, offering their take on PDA’s core sounds of disco, Italo, raw house and EBM sounds, a musical faultline that splinters out as far as London, Leeds, Brussels and Chicago.

Public Display of Affection’s own marathon DJ sets regularly keep dancers rooted to the floor well into the following afternoon, an unpredictable, energetic and generous style captured in Considine and Tam Tam’s collaborative mix for Phantasy’s long-running series, featuring favourites and propulsive obscurities from DJ Hell, Michael Prince and Zillas on Acid. As per PDA’s slogan, “it’s not for the faint hearted.”

“This mix is our interpretation of the Phantasy sonics. A selection of our favourite tripped-out records that capture the essence of our Progressive Disco Aciiiiiid sound.” - Public Display of Affection
