This week we welcome the Belfast DJ Jude Dude to the series, supplying us with a smooth all-wax selection of deep, groovy and upbeat house, with tracks from the likes of John Tejada, Kynesis, Deep Rhythm and Denia. 

Jude says that the mix was made with the intention to improve mood, conserve positive emotions and decrease maintenance of thoughts. He has certainly been putting the Discogs hours in, digging deep into the realm of forgotten 90s house to curate a real corker of a mix. To catch more of Jude, head to Alto Radio where he has a great bi-monthly residency called Bioscaping. For now, crack open a beverage, put your feet up and enjoy some tasty and mindful beats.
