John Loveless and I go back pretty far, at least in internet terms. We were both members of the Erol Alkan Forum, a resource that was a haven for general chat, track IDs and sharing your own music, among other things. John was a day one Bandcloud subscriber, and when we met once in Manchester in 2014, we learned that we had attended some of the same gigs while I was studying in Preston and he was in Manchester. Over the past decade or so he’s firmly established himself as a writer, DJ, curator, promoter and label boss. His label Hot Concept has put out sterling releases from Pokies, Beigean, Bleaching Agent, Yr Lovely Dead Moon (who featured recently in these missives), and Gramrcy, the latter of whom he collaborated with recently for a 12” on, wait for it, Erol Alkan’s Phantasy label. John’s become a big part of that world, mixing and curating A Psychedelic Sensibility to mark Phantasy’s 100-single milestone. It’s a thrilling example of things coming full circle. I must also mention that none other than Mel C (yes, Sporty Spice) played their track ‘Highdive’ in Pacha in Ibiza recently. Wowsers.

The mix he’s done for Bandcloud is a great insight into his eclectic world view, with dreamy ’50s organ music leading into something weird and wonderful from the 2020s. This Heat leads into colourful, unreleased techno. ’80s new wave meets Wilted Woman, while ’00s Jimmy Edgar collapses into an edit of Solid Groove (aka Switch, definitely one for the EAF heads). The late Richard H Kirk makes an appearance before the mix closes out with a glorious double-whammy of Mx Tactful and aya’s remix of the aforementioned Yr Lovely Dead Moon (both of which made recent appearances here). What more can I say?
