For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

It would seem that you have returned for another offering from the audible gods, this one (or any in the future) will not disappoint. Another special delivery from the blessed lands of Helsinki. The god behind it is Olli Koponen; a resident favourite of the local dance floors, he jumped at the chance to put something together that didn’t revolve around a 4 x 4 formula. 

He’s delivered a bit of masterpiece, expressing his knowledge of all things music in great detail. The mix reeks of passion and understanding, consistently evolving whilst the narrative remains strong, ebbs and flows of ups and downs. Dusting off all-time classics and seamlessly integrating Neo-classics, digging up old emotions and inciting new ones. There is a lurking, pulsating current that permeates this mix but never actually breaks the surface, a perfect demonstration in the art of restraint. Euphoria still exists, this is a gentle reminder of where to find it.

Tom Moore’s Brunchtime radio special is here with a bunch of dubs and downtempo riddims.   

Recorded on Dec 9th before his partner in crimes; Otologic/Animals Dancing, Nick Murray  took over on a warm summers day.  

Always a pleasure having the mayor of Melbourne back, long since the days when Dr Morse would host Animals Dancing recovery sessions.

architect of fuzzy logic and math

A familiar face around the Dutch capital, Amsterdam-based DJ and producer Kennedy has been immersed in music and records for over two decades, putting into practise his mantra of moving both the body and the soul.

While day-to-day he can be found behind the counter at Red Light Records pushing wax, as well as being part of the team at Jamie Tiller and Tako Reyenga's Music From Memory imprint, his own musical endeavours see him taking over the waves at Red Light Radio and running his own Dream Machine imprint, which he launched last year with a debut record from himself. 

This year will see him release a second on the label and also debut overseas on DJ D.Dee's renowned Pacific Rhythm imprint. In the run up to these production outings, we asked him to take the reigns for this week's Shine A Light On mix, which sees him serve up a soothing selection of music for the soul...
