The long overdue revival of our mix series is finally here, with this killer edition from London via The North East's @meganleo.

Recorded live from @fabric at their Continuum party in March, Megan reopened Room 3 on Sunday afternoon while Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann and others were shaking the panels in Room 1.

Many of you will know her already from regular appearances in Newcastle, holding residencies for Me Me Me, Midnight People and Cafe 1001 as well as her very own Swirl party. 

This year has seen the release of her debut EP on Me Me Me, playing shows at Pikes Ibiza and up and down the UK with more of the same in store for 2024.

It's an honour to have Megan contribute to our series and we hope you enjoy the journey 💫

* FULL INTERVIEW: https://boltingbits.com/mixed-by-wallace/

Wallace is a name becoming more and more synonymous with that dancefloor moment. If you’ve seen any high calibre diggers lately such as Hunee, Moxie, Axel Boman or Gilles Peterson then you’ve most likely heard a Wallace ear worm. Through his productions on Rhythm Section, Studio Barnhus and his own elusive white label series Tartan, he’s become a hit machine responsible for elevating dancefloors everywhere. Headed by Palms Trax, Wallace adds CWPT to his prestigious discography list, cooking up a four track EP of leftfield disco, progressive house and wonky drum rhythms with a seasoning of psychedelia. We had a chat with the UK-based musician to dig a little deeper into the man and the music.

Ariane V joins the series for Viscera 109! 

"Prague-born, London based Ariane V is a selector on the rise. Cutting her teeth with a stint behind the counter at Soho’s legendary Phonica Records, she quickly developed a taste for a broad range of dance music, building an enviable record collection in the process.

Initially rooted in house & disco, Ariane V’s exquisite selections frequently drift through the dreamlike and euphoric to the broken beat and acid pumpers. She’s a regular at many of London's best venues, either getting people dancing at the likes of Corsica Studios and the Cause, or digging deep at audiophile spaces such as Brilliant Corners. An experienced radio host, she has appeared on multiple radio stations in the UK and abroad in addition to her regular monthly show on Peckham’s Balamii Radio."

Let today's mix guide you through a deep exploration of the cosmos.

Enjoy.

We're finally back in business and ready to celebrate the 2024 reopening with the third episode of our HD Series. BufoBufo is at the helm this time, and we've been cultivating a certain admiration for his music since his first record on Partout. At the crossroads of electro, breakbeat, and tech-house, Ben Murphy's productions reinvent a retro-modern dance music, drawing their energy from the UK raves of the '90s. A personal touch that has caught the attention of some of our favorite labels such as Altered Sense, Art of Dark, Cabaret (his Wetlands double EP/Album was one of the shop's highlights in 2023), and soon Klasse Wrecks.

So here is his podcast, embracing the vision of club music we share: a 1h15 eclectic set of techno, acid, and even some touches of drum and bass, including some of BufoBufo's unreleased works, which make us even more eager to go out this weekend.
