TOC Podcast Episode 011 - Guada Fk

With the winter having come to an end we embrace the summer and present you with a new podcast from label main stay Jonny Cruz. In this mix he starts off with a few deep house tunes and transitions into Rock edged vibes introducing Paul Mccartney’s 1985 remix by Timo Maas & James Teej, going into african soundscapes from the likes of Fela Kuti amongst others, then bringing it all back into house induced flavors and ending the mix withThiever y Corporation’s "Is It Over”. The mix is wide spread on different styles and it is refreshing to say the least. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Select Cuts 132: LIVING

@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.

Ray Zuniga & NIKITA - Playground - Burning Man 2018

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.

Ray Zuniga & Nikita - LIVE at The Cityfox Odyssey (NYE & NYD 2019)

We would like to introduce you to a new imprint launched in 2013 called Touch of Class Records. Founder and PillowTalk member Michael Tello along with co-founder Ray Zuniga are paying homage to their fathers by continuing the family business name and artistic principle. Originally from Los Angeles, the label mates relocated and now call San Francisco their home. TOC Records puts a new West Coast label on the map that looks to showcase the distinctive deep house and raw techno textures that embody both hometowns.

Four years ago Michael Tello and Ray Zuniga started collaborating on music together and the innovative partnership, Signal Flow, was born. Their time is spent producing and DJing on the West Coast and all over Berlin and Europe, as well as collaborating with artists such as Aquarius Heaven, Jonny Cruz, Tone of Arc, Navid Izadi, Strangers in Heaven, Eric Volta, PillowTalk, dOP and many more. They have quickly made a name for their eclectic sound and energy.

The first Touch Of Class release, “Dirty Hands E.P.”, is by the labels very own, Signal Flow, along with Jonny Cruz due out May 2013. The lead single 'Dirty Hands', produced along with Jonny Cruz of My Favorite Robot, features Aquarius Heaven on vocal duty. The track has been getting serious buzz since the debut live performance on Studio R (radio stream), Berlin. The B-side, 'Drug Lips' features vocals from Navid Izadi, which has been getting heavy play from Damian Lazarus around the world.

EP Preview here: https://soundcloud.com/touch-of-class-records/sets/tocr-001-signal-flow-dirty

For this special occasion, TOC and Signal Flow invite you to listen and download their first Podcast for the new label. This special mix contains original forthcoming Signal Flow material along with upcoming Touch of Class releases. It also features music from some of our dearest friends, and personal favorites of the 2012 year.
