Justin Aulis Long is a sonic sorcerer, urban Homeric poet, and cosmic wanderer that exists within the liminal spaces where light meets dark. Long is the offspring of a gorgon, conceived within a brick and mortar labyrinth while surrounded by the supernatural electronic voices of angelic forces.

While engaging in themes of the uncanny and erotic, Long opens thresholds which lead to psychedelic realms during communal dance gatherings. Applications of sonic alchemy during ritual action generate vibrant forces created through collective effervescence, causing a bubbling over of ecstatic energy leading to rapture. During the rite, incantations are expressed through fusing a swarm of aural fragments composed from diverse temperaments by way of a personal and singular technique.Sacred objects (records), selector’s tools (turntables and mixer), body, spirit, harmonic and discordant voices unify and become one - The Soft Machine.

During a ritual performance, phonic collages are created intuitively on sight, sigils are aurally direct with specific intent, and offerings are bestowed before an alter, all charged by an engine of chaos. Time and space unravels while normality ruptures and disintegrates as foundational structures of the status quo are dismantled through intensive executions, founded in the practices surrounding musical selection.

UK born, Rotterdam based @sebcantmix brings us an extended 2hr vinyl mix for our 14th instalment. The @hidden_rooms & 40Hz co-founder gives us a very special ode to the warm-up, which in turn is his favourite set to play.

I’ve always enjoyed doing warm-ups. In some hypothetical dream scenario where I could play for any party at any club & choose my slot, I’d choose to do the warm-up.

I find watching a room fill up & laying the foundations for an entire night &/or day of partying is often the most satisfying experience you can have as a DJ.

Sometimes I think there can be a bit of a narrative that you have to ‘play it safe’ during the early hours of an event, but I actually often think the opposite. I think as long as you get the mood right, you’re free to play some of the most interesting music.

I'm gonna go for @achterban - They’re not tied to a particular sound but instead always combine DJs from all different genres throughout their programming. Their event production is always great, they bring a lot of visual art & lighting installations to the club to good effect.

Oh there are loads, how can I just pick one? @yopoono is always impressive. Every time I listen to him I always think he’s really good at getting his tracks in the right order. Sounds simple I guess but it's probably the most important thing to get right haha.

Also big up to @krismika - super sick selections, always love listening to her sets!

Earlier this year I went to Golden Pudel for the first time.

What a club. It’s really got everything you want imo. Small room, low lighting, cracking system & a crowd full of people really into their tunes & up for having a good time. 10/10, would Pudel again.

It doesn’t feel competitive. There are a lot of creative people doing a lot of cool things but, in my experience at least, it’s never felt like they’re fighting for their own space. People are open to collabs & support each other’s endeavours.

Far too many to choose from but the first time I saw DJ Sprinkles will always stand out. She has this whole different way of thinking about what a DJ set can be. I’ve never heard anyone else do it like her.

The last one that really left its mark was Floid on @woodyninetytwo Neon Cleptu show on @lyl_radio. Crazy tunes, expertly blended. Out to Marco for putting it on at work!

Again too many to choose tbh.

I lived in Helsinki for a year & went to @clubkaiku near enough every weekend whilst I was there. Something about that place & the way it’s run, the way the booth is built, the soundsystem & the crowd of regulars that attend, it always seemed to bring the best out of the DJs that played there.

The whole scene in Helsinki is really top notch. It’ll always have a special place in my heart.

Also, memories of going to the @hessleaudio residency at @fabric when I was 18/19. Truly transformative experiences.

Up & coming fresh Melbourne/ Naarm talent Miki @tirumiksu for number one hundred & thirty eight with the perfect balance of cheeky minimal, lush electronica & euphoric groove, the perfect summer rollers. Miki is making waves in the scene, popping up more & more at local parties, showing off her different styles, with a beautiful knack for downtempo rhythms and storytelling, embedded with broken beats & rare tripped out gems.. and often a more dancey side with hot tech house baselines & high-energy melodies.

Thank you for the mix Miki!

80s UK House Mix by Tom Carruthers

Sunday evening... An unexpected visitor from Chicago named duKe comes to Kiosk Radio to enjoy the good weather, music and vibes... all of a sudden the owner of the establishment asked if he would like to play... that was accepted and exclusively as an impromptu demonstration of finds from an afternoon spent digging at Crevette Records, and after an all-nighter at Fuse’s Motion Room. 
Lock in for the ride!

The Unplanned Moment w/ duKe aka Traxx @ Kiosk Radio 08.10.2023

Many DJs claim to be champions of free-spirited eclecticism, but few truly break boundaries or swerve convention. Step forward Elena Colombi, a DJ and radio host whose inspired sets are not only open-minded and mind-altering, but also seek to toy with the emotions of listeners. It’s the perfect recipe for our Smoke podcast, where we invite to lay back and soak in the music.
