Episode 007 invites special guest Estimulo for an extended 2 hour free-flow b2b session, centered around the theme "Afterhours". Atmospheric, breezy and deep tracks that work just as well on a sunrise-drenched dancefloor as for tripping out on the sofa, be that Deep House, Italo House, Ambient House, Atmospheric Dub Techno or Proto Trance - simply music for when late becomes early, and those blurry moments where the afterhours slide into the pre-hours.

Come Down With Me - Dream_E - 24 Oct 2023 (Refuge Worldwide)

Next up for CKFM we have Edinburgh based DJ, noodle. "This mix was inspired by those early 00’s compilation CDs which were one seamless, continuous mix and soundtracked countless train journeys growing up. The CDs always seemed to have hyper-sexualised women throwing their heads back in ecstasy on the cover and evoked some kind of sleazy, flirty feeling within. This mix opens with progressive house and evolves into a journey of tribal-infused tech house from its’ golden era: the late 90’s and early 00’s. Percussion and groove-heavy bassline puncture throughout before finishing on euphoric house cuts. Tech house can be a bit of a dirty word these days, and I wish there was more appreciation for its original roots before it became commercialised."

GRDN DJ, EHFM resident and Subterranean Sound curator, noodle is constantly digging the internet for new sounds that feed her obsession with euphoric house, stripped back minimal and even slippery dubstep. Be sure to check out her monthly radio show on EHFM where she meanders playfully through her softer side: whether its hypnagogic ambient, rare 90’s hip-hop or twinkly house music.

For the 36th entry in the Honcho Podcast series, we have a special treat from none other than Carlos Souffront. Carlos is widely known in the underground dance music scene for his eclectic, spellbinding sets and he's delivered a mix that reflects just that. In collaboration with Amsterdam's 'Is Burning' party, we are releasing Carlos' mix in two parts. They have already released the first part of the mix, which can be found here:

We are providing the second part of the journey as our latest mix. Enjoy!

Here's something from somewhere down under.

Myles Mac is a dj based in Australia, Melbourne to be precise. He is the founder and curator behind the quite magnificent online platform and mix series, Melbourne Deepcast. The series has played host to some of the most innovative and interesting figures in dance and electronic music and has fast become one of the most influential out there. 

Myles himself is an eclectic dj, channeling a broad range of musical influences and styles. He meanders between house, techno, electronics and the spaces which exist in between. He dj's both independently and as one half of Project 95 - when he takes to the turntables there is a sense that you might hear something unexpected and unique as we present in this instance.

We invited Myles to record a mix for our series and he delivers in fine style.
