In memoriam of Aérea Negrot (by Jacob Meehan, feat. Kyle Kidd) @ The Lot Radio 11-16-2023

At this point, Shy One might be familiar to most music fans as one of the hosts of NTS's daily breakfast show, Soup To Nuts, where she helps listeners across the UK and Europe settle into their morning routines with an eclectic and soulful selection of dance music and downtempo. But the London artist has been around a lot longer than that, with a discography that goes back well over a decade. 

She started releasing music as a regular on Scratcha DVA's label, and it was there that she sketched out a recognizable but impressively varied approach rooted in her home base of London. On her records, Shy One sometimes feels like London incarnate, synthesizing the histories of Black British dance music—drum & bass, grime, UK funky, broken beat, jazz, you name it—into one syncretic and immensely appealing sound. But her music glows with the warmth of American deep house, too, which lends it a timeless, ageless quality that has proven immensely appealing. She furthers this mission with Private World, a party she started with Ruby Savage. The name kind of says it all: she's inviting you to her own personal space, but what awaits is a whole wide world of music and culture.

Her RA Podcast feels like a hybrid between a club DJ set and her morning show, and here, she zeroes in on a the lineage of American house music from the '90s and beyond, featuring tracks from the likes of Green Velvet, Marcellus Pittman, Roy Davis Jr., Wbeeza, Jay Daniel and more, plus a spotlight from Baltimore club king DJ Technics. It's patient and easygoing but perfect for a small dance floor (or a livingroom party), focused but stylistically diverse. It's everything we've come to expect from an artist like Shy One, who weaves stories and histories with her DJ sets, and does it effortlessly, too.

Chunk: Smallville Records Special with Julius Steinhoff - 18 November 2023

A tribute to Jamie Tiller. NM033 is a bow of gratitude for his abundant generosity, musical heritage and kind friendship.

Regular listeners may have noticed the frequent shout-outs to Jamie - for good reason. Especially many of the ambient records he gave me introduced me to a lot of amazing music and discoveries, with lots of spins both on air and at home.

Here's a waaay-too-tiny selection of a few personal favourites, records and for the most part, Music From Memory releases he snuck into my bag, and shared with the world over the years. And some clumsy anecdotes. Apologies for any messyness on the info-parts, this is by far the most difficult episode I've ever done.

Thank you Jamie - we miss you.

Rest in paradise <3

Telephones' New Massage 033 Jamie Tiller tribute [Refuge Worldwide]

Musical purveyor & vibe creator https://soundcloud.com/jacob-meehan injects our weekend with a more than healthy dose of sultry beats. Since moving to Berlin in 2016, he's become one of the driving forces behind two events beloved by the queer community: Buttons & WHOLE Festival. Both encourage imaginative, playful possibilities that emphasize creativity, presence & care.

About his favorite track:
I love Sekucci's psychedelic remix of John Yienger's "Think For Yourself." Shout out to my NYC sis, who is an amazing DJ, producer, and all around lovely person. Sekucci will be joining us this summer at WHOLE Festival's ambient stage. That record is out on Major Records, which imho is currently the hottest label out there bringing us all the kicky fresh club cutz.

Hailing from Chicago, Jacob Meehan has made a name for himself over the last fifteen years as both a musical purveyor & vibe creator. Since moving to Berlin in 2016, he's left his mark with two beloved queer institutions: Buttons & WHOLE Festival.

During the pandemic he dove deeper into music production; later in the year expect an upcoming release with Physical Therapy. Jacob is also known for his ambient sets, which has led to a residency at Kwia (Berlin). He regularly leads yoga nidra guided meditation sessions.

BIS Radio Show #972 with Jacob Meehan

Buttons resident @jacob-meehan :

"At the start of 2019, a dear friend invited me to the house of Lana Turner, the co-founder and chair of The Literary Society, a New York City book discussion group founded in 1982 and based in Harlem. At dinner Miss Turner spoke about the practice of writing to oneself, particularly a letter or postcard while traveling, a way to check-in, reflect, remind.  

I wrote this long letter on a short piece of paper to remember my first trip to Japan, particularly a very cleansing & much needed hike that I took in Atsumi Onsen - Tsuruoka, Yamagata.

This mix is dedicated to my aforementioned dear friend, Sir Jacobs."
