Moods 67: Tammy Lakkis

Dress2Sweat.FM on Beloved Radio 3.16.24

"Ladiez Drink Free" is the dynamic trio of Mariposa, Drupe Jam, and Perna. These three Florida-raised DJ’s met in Brooklyn, immediately bonding over their passionate experiences through music and how much it means to them. Since beginning to playing collectively in 2022, their sound has become known for its eccentric vocals and hypnotic basslines, resulting in a controlled chaos that entices you. Their individual eclectic tastes find common ground in the ability to create unexpected sets that are flirtatious yet grounding, alluring yet bracing, and unpredictable as they are nostalgic. They recently began a new residency at Bossa Nova Civic Club, where they aim to deliver monthly on their motto "Great Rax, Great Trax." This mix, recorded using 2 turntables and 2 CDJ 350s, showcases their love for blending various eras of music, wandering through classic yet fresh sounds.

the seventh installment in our guest mix series opens with the tinny call of a Darbuka drum over a winding 303 bassline, a perfect portrait of our guests' diasporic Detroit roots. Motown’s rising voice [@tammylakkis] takes us on a journey through her richly textured, self-contained, and nutrient dense audio universe

Tammy has an unsuspecting appearance when behind the decks, one that was on display while she played our [#RRSEASON0NE] showcase in Detroit last October. head down and nodding, she’s fixed on the waveforms and equipment in front of her. sonically however, she’s delivering Hulk-sized grooves onto the dancefloor, sending bodies into frenzied knots, tangling and untangling at her touch

over the next hour Tammy invites us to experience her Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde essence. we’re led through electro, breaks, acid, and techno, while encountering tracks by Mim Suleiman, False Persona, Dagga, and eventually landing on a jazzy grime conclusion by the emcee of emcees, Novelist

catch more of this virgo virtuoso at Movement Festival in May and keep an ear out for her contribution to the upcoming compilation by Rare Frequency Transmissions, arriving April 5th

This installment of Live & Direct features the opening segment of a set that Russell E.L. Butler (@russellelbutler), played alongside NIKS on June 2, 2023.

"Reggae music is a teacher. I’ve learned about spaces between short moments through this music. I’ve learned to listen through this music. I’ve learned how to connect with others through love and consideration through this music. I’ve learned that every moment is the beginning and the end and how to listen for the space in between. I’ve learned that no matter how far away home is, you can always find a way back." — @russellelbutler

Russell E.L. Butler returns to Nowadays for an all-night set this Friday, April 19, 2024.

Honey Bun is a multidisciplinary afro-futurist artist and DJ whose work aims to reclaim the black past, affirm the black present, and demand the black future. Born in NYC, raised in Texas, and now based in Brooklyn, she aims to seamlessly blend her east coast roots with her southern upbringing. As a resident of The Lot Radio, Honey Bun hosts her monthly show, BUNTOPIA, captivating listeners with a distinctive mix designed to "sonically journey through the cosmos." The show also features guest DJs, each bringing their own interstellar interpretation to the theme. The sounds of BUNTOPIA, extend into a party night often hosted by intimate NYC clubs, Le Bain and Mood Ring. She is the co-founder of beloved party series, Soul Connection, along with DJ, Lovie. Together, they craft an immersive atmosphere filled with soulful house, R&B, funk, and disco music, bouncing between renowned Brooklyn clubs, Good Room and Nowadays. Honey Bun is also a regular at Mansions, a fusion of a natural wine bar and nightclub. Here, she orchestrates bi-monthly all-night sets where she effortlessly buzzes through genre, crafting 6-hour mixes that are uniquely her own. 

Honey Bun quote: "In this mix I wanted to find an energetic meeting point between classic house/techno and club music with a southern perspective. 'Swangin' by Scan 7 and 'Down South' by Alexis Curshé blend into classic tracks by Detroit and Chicago legends, Robert Hood, K-hand and Paul Johnson. I also added a splash of Acid, a sprinkle of UK Garage and a sneaky Beyonce remix to really make it an essential Honey Bun mix. Big thank you to my friend Karl who extended me studio space and mastering services to get this recorded"

Alias: Tammy Lakkis
Pronouns: she / they
Location: Detroit, Michigan, USA
Residency: Fun House of Fun, Monday is the New Monday
Labels: Portage Garage Sounds
Name of the mix: Bad House
About the mix: “Bad House” is an attempt to touch on the wide versatility that has moved me under or near the “house” umbrella with an emphasis on yummy basslines, hot percussion (especially toms), and wacky melodies. The mix goes all over the place much like my DJ sets. Let’s enjoy the coexistence of joyful disco tracks with jackin acid house!
