V special guest for number ninety, Austin raised, now Brooklyn based Deep Creep ( @deepcreep88 ) presents a crazy mix in her signature style. Diverse, exciting and always fresh... Somehow always finding a way to blend smooth tech house and groove with surprising pops of dubstep, bass and beyond.

Resident at @thelotradio , regular at NYC favourite Public Records, and creative brain behind one of my favourite mix series @pipipigroup (www.pipipi.life), it's safe to say sasha is an integral member of the NYC scene. 

Admiring each other's series from opposite ends of of the world, we thought it'd be cute to publish our mixes for each other's series at the same time.

Big love and thanks again for this stunning mix Sasha!

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself?

Hello, I’m Sharlese Jul-anetia Metcalf, she/her pronouns. My DJ name is Sharlese and on IG it’s Sh6rl6s6. One fun fact about me is I like to write fan mail. I’ve made many friends this way. I like to tell people that I like their music or their mixes so they feel appreciated. 

Who/what currently inspires you music-wise that has nothing to do with music?

Riding the bus. I ride the bus to and from work, mostly and sometimes I don’t listen to anything, but the natural noises from the bus. Sometimes it gets real wild with situations and other times, it’s just regular busy bus noises. 

Favorite sound in nature? Describe how it makes you feel. 

I love the sound of the wind. Sometimes she starts screaming and I feel like she’s telling me to stop overthinking. I find some comfort in hearing the wind, she’s moving things around and adding some texture to the world. 

What was your best moment on the dance floor?

Watching Pablo Bozzi at the XXX-Floor at Berghain and crying for his entire set. Questioning my life, my contribution as a DJ and my overall purpose and absolutely dying over his set. I kept dancing and I wore sunglasses and kept getting compliments on them. Some people noticed that I was crying and asked me if I was ok, others offered me drinks and the rest complimented me on my sunglasses. This entire situation might sound awkward, but crying felt good and thinking about my life felt necessary and seeing Pablo was essential because I love him. I was alone and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. I learned so much that day, about myself and a bit of the club world and I’ll never forget it. I’m still processing and also finding it a bit funny that I was so dramatic. 

Longest you've stayed up and why?

Three days because I was at Movement in Detroit and I didn’t want to miss one thing so I went for it and it was all worth it.  

What is your most recent favorite DJ mix and why?

Pure, fucking, ravepop, happiness! 

Dream DJ gig?

XXX-Floor at Berghain or Dekmantel :) 

What was your first gig? How did it go? 

My first gig was at a space called Electric Tea Garden in Seattle. I played witch house, minimal synth and cold wave. They were a bunch of tracks I found on a blog site at the lowest of the low quality. I was trying to mix it, but I had no idea what I was doing. Someone actually came up to me and asked if I was a new DJ and I felt so embarrassed. Overall I give myself an A+ for cool tracks and knowledge, D- for the quality of the tracks and C- for not knowing how to handle the situation and an E+ for feeling embarrassed. 

Any advice to upcoming DJs?

Do it because you love it and you don’t have to say yes to everything and you don’t have to be at every after-party to get a gig. 

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

More headlining slots featuring black and trans women and the termination of hierarchical name positioning on event flyers.

Next up in the Field Manuevers takeover is Dalston Superstore resident J.Aira who late last year released their debut single, ‘TPL’, on the club’s in-house label. Through their work as a vocalist, composer and DJ, they showcase a passion for unearthing lost queer histories and bringing them to life whether that’s through radio documentaries and soundtracking for Stonewall 2069. Growing up, J.Aria found themselves fixated on voices such as Sarah Vaughan, Diana Ross, Judy Garland and Whitney to name a few and cite Sylvester, Arthur Russell, Patrick Cowley, Anthony and The Johnson’s as influences too. 

‘This mix was recorded in Brooklyn NYC in August ’22. When I play I’m building the extended narrative of a ki, with twists that encompass diverse sounds and the journey of the dancefloor. Sultry and percussive, deep and acidic, with high emotion and tears. Field Maneuvers have supported me as an artist and a family member for so many years now that it’s hard for me to imagine where I’d be without their constant encouragement, and a lifetime’s worth of unbeatable dancefloor memories that almost too perfect to have been real. K-Hand, Eris Drew, Violet - sets and connections that have changed me forever. It’s unbeatable.’ - J.Airia

DJ FART IN THE CLUB INVITES: ASTRAL VIP 160922

Campout is an experience that we meticulously curate from start to finish; finding an artist that can connect the dots and close the festival is never an easy task. When asking artists to play, we always encourage them to stay through the festival in its entirety. This is the best way to truly understand what the festival is and what the community brings. 

This brings us to @ciel_dj, who we view as one of the most talented and hardworking DJ/producers in dance music. She's put in the work with her own music but also with her community in Toronto. We fully trusted her to step up and give us all proper send off. From slamming house to funky tech house rollers, Ciel gifted the crowd the energy to make it across the finish line. The ending track, 'Right Here' by SWV was damn near perfection.

CCL b2b Kiernan Laveaux Live @ Public Records [09.09.2022]

@livwutang has really arrived on the world stage in the last year. The Seattle-raised, NYC-based artist came up through DIY raves and pirate radio and is now a regular at cult clubs and festivals across North America, as well as being booked in for next year's Dekmantel Selectors. Her sound freely moves between dub, Central and West Africa rhythms and a history of Black American music. All this comes out in her widescreen sets, her curation of the Eto Ano label and her hosting of their show on The Lot Radio.  

The confidence of her selections and ability to shift through moods from the serene to the deep, the energetic to the melodic is evident in this week's mix. It slowly works through the gears from dubbed-out depths to buoyant club rhythms via tribal techno. There is an ever-present mysticism and spirituality that adds an extra layer of intrigue to the body-popping rhythms and it's that which will keep you coming back for more.

Peking 313 / Detroit Techno - The Soul Of Resistance w/ Jon K 140223

With this mix for the Ever Afters 2023 campout, I wanted to help set the stage (literally) for the lineup that Envelope booked for the Yurt. This took three forms: lesbian soundsystem music to establish dancing in that room as a norm (prog); dark and percussive and carnal tracks to open the gates for wider tempos and sonic palettes (dnb); and experimentally-focused pieces to acknowledge the history of the Yurt as a site of primarily ambient casting (experimental ambient). It works best I think if you imagine yourself in the depths of the California midlands, huddled under swerving UFO lights as the hours from 3-5am careen by 🖤
