H.A.N.D. MIX 048 EVIE

Safe to say this one has been worth the wait! Relentless Sydney digger @daniel-lupica uncovers some seriously next level 90s kwaito and mid-tempo house from South Africa for a summer time spread full of pure under the radar heat! 

Q. Hey Daniel, what inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time/place in dance music history that connects all the different elements in one way or another?

A. Kind of, but it wasn’t super intentional; obviously I’m into 90’s sounds (in particular South African Kwaito and House) so I wanted to share some of my favourite finds of this year and string them together in a cohesive mix, keeping a steady mid-tempo vibe, where everything sounds both similar and different the whole way through. Nothing groundbreaking, just trying to keep an emphasis on quality and not play too many jams I’ve heard before in other DJ’s mixes.

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart, or new or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment?

A. There are a few! As a lot of the SA stuff is not easy to come by, it feels like it’s by chance (right place, right time) that I ended up with a couple, so pretty grateful to have some of my grails in hand, such as the “Shima - S'Phete Vibe” LP, the song “Dlayani” is in the mix but it’s packed full of heat. Another is the “Andile - Want Me (Viagra Mix)” (recently added to my YT) that is red hot fave at the moment.

Q. With so many great under-the-radar South African records in the mix, can we expect to hear a few of these popping up on your youtube channel in the months ahead? And what other rabbit holes have you been exploring for the channel of late?

A. Yes for sure! There’s 3 or 4 in there that I plan to throw onto my channel. But hopefully I don’t sit on them too long and miss the boat.

The other rabbit holes that I’m always exploring include 90’s Latin/Spanish/Brazillian Hip Hop and Hip-House, as well as Reggae and Dancehall covers of 90s RnB and pop songs. Always nice to throw something familiar yet different into the mix when playing in a bar or club.

Mix of the Week #517: DJ Lloyd

Caressing your skin like a soft warm breeze, Danny Bodega hits all the sweet spots with this lovers special. Straight from the Balearic cowboy himself “ The vibe is to float on through a valentines evening with your squeeze of choice. From the dining table, to the boudoir, then out to the discos, with a few tiffs and trips to the powder room along the way, as is tradition.” Let this one run as you reach the pleasure dome.

Hailing from Philadelphia, Shawn, Alex, and Brian have been consistently putting out some of the most wonderful mixes out there. With an incredible ear for all sort of genres and a pallet that is deeper than the Mariana trench, they only went and smashed our expectations with this mix for 5918mins. Get ready for soothing soft rock,  slow jams, sleazy funk, and upbeat disco amongst many other things. (If you are in luck you might even get some of those juicy IDs, but there already is a line for that :))  
Thank you Universal Cave !
