The Beat Mix: Dazion

Jackmin (real name - Mindaugas Juodeikis) is a DJ and promoter who started his career back in 2005 in Kaunas. Mindaugas' musical style was formed while dancing at the then legendary progressive, deep house parties, and behind the DJ decks he was known as a representative of deep house, jackin house styles. During many years of playing, Jackmin was a resident of clubs and bars in Vilnius, Kaunas, Šiauliai, played at such festivals as Sūpynės, Granatos, on radio shows and curated the Spicy Sugar series of events and podcasts.

Over the years, the musical style has correlated with trends, but has always maintained a positive deep, spacy sound, placed in the framework of house, disco genres and maneuvering between modern and 90s sound.

Named as a "sun and see music pioneer", Jackmin maintains tradition and sound and presents a summer house mix that takes you to the sea and far into the African jungle.

Hilltown Disco - Italo Special (14/7/23)

It's always interesting to learn about the musical insight and influences of a radio host or dj who doesn't travel the road most followed. Thea HD, has for many years, worked behind the scenes, drawing inspiration from music in the widest sense. A regular radio show on NTS has offered Thea an opportunity to showcase a variety of interests and perspectives on sound - fusing the likes of Soul, Folk, Ambient, Jazz and everything in between into a listening experience which somehow makes sense, cementing a musical identity and a story. 

This year also marked the launch of a new label - a side project designed to offer a new outlet for musical expression. Thea emailed us earlier this summer to tell us about Odda Recordings - an imprint described as being focussed on "design, landscape and unearthing new sounds".

With this in mind we weren't sure what to expect from this mixtape. However, what has arrived is pleasantly delightful and perhaps represents the very best of a music collection and a personal journey which feels well rounded and whole. There are delicate Ambient textures, percussive grooves and deep, whimsical sounds which make for a perfect atmospheric midweek listen.

Thea HD: The 'Wednesday Alternative' Mix

We welcome Parisian artist Botwin with a DJ mix in our series. The Everybody Trance resident has made a name for himself with some top-notch production work on French imprints such as Bardouin and Griffé / Chat Noir, but he also knows how to deliver killer DJ sets, combining old schlool trance and breakbeats. Hope you enjoy this one as much as we do :)
