E014–Ray Zuniga

Touch of Class Records is proud to present “Once Upon A Time” an EP recorded by producer, vocalist, DJ, Navid Izadi. Hailing from San Francisco, Navid Izadi makes it an art to combine multiple influences in his music, his earlier experiences constantly resonating through his productions. Here he brings us a two-part track, with remixes by Tone of Arc and Kenneth Scott. Recorded in the Lower Haight district of San Francisco, this EP is the imprints fourth release, heralding the musical qualities that the label stays true to: a combination of sophisticated and eclectic rhythms executed with style and poise.

Part one of the original track is laid down with a moogy bass line and met with classic 808 style percussion textures mixed with provocative vocals and laughter about a night out-- taking us on a groovy ride through the colorful and transient streets of San Francisco. Part two evolves from a sexy and playful escapade to a stripped back, dreamy after-thought with the sounds of a xylophone in the background and Tone of Arc delivers a 303 bass line remix that electrifies. Kenneth Scott’s remix delivers an early 90s vibe taking it back similar to the classic sound of The Orb’s Little Fluffy Clouds Cumulonimbus Mix by Pal joey. The entire EP embodies a family affair with contributions by all San Francisco bred artists.

This last year was a big one for Izadi with releases on Wolf & Lamb & Soul Clap Records, but his creative output doesn’t stop there. Besides performing live, Dj’ing and producing quality tracks, Navid Izadi has done vocals featured on tracks alongside Deniz Kurtel, Soul Clap, Signal Flow, and close friends PillowTalk.

Kiran live mix #001

@RayZuniga, DJ, producer, Touch of Class label owner and Output resident joined forces with frequent collaborator and beloved Listed resident @DJNikita for magical evening of world-class house music in The Panther Room November 18 2018.

Ray Zuniga & NIKITA - Live from The Panther Room Nov 2018

It was the last sunrise on our beloved Playa, and the morning of Temple Burn. It was also the most beautiful, absolutely surreal transformation of our moon and sun, upon the coldest night of the Burn. The energy, vibe, and temperature, quickly elevated, provided a state of bliss thanks to our all-giving sun! All these elements, along with the citizens of Black Rock City, who lift our spirits, reminded and reassured us that we’re surrounded by pure LOVE! The incredible and unique ART continues to inspire us, igniting our inner light, liberating us from our fears, and encouraging us all to be living our best lives. 

 For us, it’s an absolute pleasure and honor to be a part of such an incredible art project, broadening people’s imaginations and inspiring others to dream BIG! Reminding us of our purpose to prove the testament that MUSIC really is the answer.

The winter solstice has just arrived down under which means our homies up  North are well and truly into the swing of things! 

To signify the beginning of our distant journey to summer, we've invited Michael Tello of PillowTalk Music to bring their signature groovy, soulful and sundrenched vibes to our longest standing mixtape series. 

The all-round talented producer, DJ and label manager presents us with an hour of power which encompasses multiple genres and tempos - an accurate reflection of the maestro producer who fuses the sounds of classic R&B, boogie and disco with underground house and indie dance for a living. 

Whether you're dreaming of the summer ahead or currently in the thick of it, prepare for a journey in musical discovery and listen now.

Barney Cools | Poolside Etiquette Guest Mixtape 21: PillowTalk

We started Friday night at 4:30 in the early AM, and brought up Saturday’s sun over the course of 2.5 hours on the beach stage of beautiful Belden Town, along the majestic Feather River. 

We are honored to have been part of the 10 Year Anniversary of the Sunset Campout, and couldn’t be more pleased to share with you our set from the best campout on earth! Every year it’s a family reunion of many sorts, full of constant LOVE (and of course rigorous comedy), truly only experienced by those who attend! 

Hope you enjoy the journey of nature’s transition!! @sunset-sound-system

Your LIVING soul brutha’s, @rayzuniga @djnikita

RAY ZUNIGA & NIKITA - Live @ Sunset Campout 2019

Experience Ray Zuniga and Nikita’s trill, mystical live, opening set from The Cityfox Odyssey NYE/NYD 2019 party with this one hour and twenty-minute exclusive recording blend of deep house, techno, and a dash of disco.

Colorado-born, San-Francisco established DJ extraordinaire, NIKITA grew up as a natural entertainer. For over 16 years, he established and expanded his talents as a dynamic, versatile selector, changing and evolving the West Coast Deep House scene. Globally-established DJ, Ray Zuniga is one half label owner at Touch of Class records and one half of duo SignalFlow, as well as an internationally recognized curator and performer of accessible, yet spontaneous sounds.

After taking in their individual audible delights, it’s no wonder their shared penchant for suspending time with sophisticated, rhythmic electronic voyages have brought them together. In addition to playing together, they also produce an international music event called LIVING.us and since both have been spending time in New York creating a community who crave their contrasting fantastically blended sets, we can’t wait to see what comes from the pair next. Listen to and share this live set from Ray Zuniga and Nikita on repeat.
