Disco edits, piano house belters and soulful house grooves from German producer @joecleen who has been making waves on labels like SlothBoogie and Jazz Cabbage. Unreleased material ahoy…

*How would you describe your sound?*
 
Always danceable, sometimes cheeky, mostly unpolished.
 
*What and who inspires you and influences your sound?* 
 
The sudden impulse I get when I hear a certain sound or sample or melody, which leads the way then into the creative process. A very general thing I guess. 
 
*Can you tell us a little about this mix and what it means to you?*
 
So this is the very first mix I ever did that only consists of my own music (yeah..ok, there's like some edits, but you get what I mean).

I always found it super hard to integrate my own tracks into DJ mixes, never finding the right timing. The mere idea of compiling a mix of 100% home-baked goods was a bit stressful in the beginning, ngl. In the end I have to say I'm quite happy with the result as I feel there's a good flow in the tracklist.

Live at Sisyphos

SB Sisyphos Takeover - Pat (02:00-05:00)

This night was special! I'm super happy to share this live recording of the last @not-in-my-house event at Humboldthain with all of you. It took me a while to get a recording that also captures some of the vibes of this party, so I'm really excited that it finally worked out. The last year with Not In My House has been a really exciting one and had a huge impact on my musical journey. 

Thanks to everyone who's been part of this project so far! I'm really looking forward to 2023 and plenty more events like that last.

I hope you all enjoy the mix and see you on the dance floor!

Following up on the success of House Of Riviera released in 2019, Mona Musique releases House Of Riviera Volume 2 curated by label head @NickV, a compilation that pays homage to forgotten gems of the classic Italian House scene, circa 1991-1994. 9 tracks from the artists and record labels that were central to this seminal era of House music, including two never released cuts from Ricky Montanari, Davide Ruberto and Ivan Iacobucci.

House Of Riviera Vol. 2 unites a selection of tracks that encapsulates the atmosphere, the energy and creativity that reigned during that era. Starting where the first compilation left us, with, once again, Alex Neri and Marco Baroni opening the opus, this time as Green Baize and the wonderfully deep and harmonious « Switch Back » released in 1992 on Oversky Records. Night Communication take things closer to peak time with « Let’s Face The Music » released in 1994 on Hearbeat. Ivan Iacobucci brings two tracks to the project with the disco tinged « Get Up », released as Mental Detector on his very own label Hole in 1993, and the previously unreleased « Melt The Sun » extracted from a DAT tape from 30 years ago. The very deep and sensual « Load In Total Darkness » by More Heavy Soul, released on Irma sublabel Calypso in 1992, with vocal samples and beats lifted from Disco classics, is clearly a nod to the New York underground house scene. The second record opens with the Ricky Montanari Ethos Mama remix of Sima « Give You Myself » on D :Vision released in 1992. Ricky contributes a second track to the compilation, the original version of London made in 1993. Originally commissioned by Freetown Records as a track to feature the vocals of Arnold Javis, the project was unretained and almost scrapped, until Ricky decided to preserve a rough version on DAT tape before leaving the studio in the early hours of the morning. Workin’ Happily bring some late night dub energy with the percussive vocal snippets and grooving synth stabs of « Make My Move » released on UDP in 1993. The compilation closes as it opened with Alex Neri and Marco Baroni as Sound Set for « So In Love With You » a classic deep piano house track that samples the vocals of Colonel Abrams out on Oversky Records in 1992.

Joe Worley. Founder of independent music and arts festival, Westival. Comfortable going in any direction, you will find him spinning Disco, House, and other Balearic sounds, to Garage, Jungle and Trance, depending on the setting/time of day. His sets are always of an eclectic nature, twisting and turning, keeping the audience on their toes. Living by the slogan ‘if it’s good, it’s good’, gives Mr West the freedom behind the decks to explore many genres rather than being fixated by one sound or style. From DJ’ing at the festival and other club events around the UK, he has had the opportunity to support artists such as O’flynn, Peach, Dr Banana, Alec Falconer, Dan Shake amongst others.

"This mix was recorded as an ode to Westival. I pictured sounds I’d be likely to hear over the weekend, most likely at the Garden stage, an outdoor setting next to the bar that has a fun upbeat nature throughout the day and night. Imagining the crowd throwing shapes at the front, and others indulging from the many sofas dotted around the tent. The mix starts off with some of my favourite South African bits, then onto many variations of House; Italo, 90’s, Hip, Garage, Soulful, it covers the lot. I had loads of fun putting this selection together, and if you enjoyed the tunes, then grab yourself a ticket for Westival as you’re guaranteed to hear a bag of this throughout the weekend!"
