Resident Advisor podcast

RA.796 Darryn Jones and Tone B. Nimble

By choice, @mark_seven keeps a low profile. But the truth is, he is one of those low-key but influential characters you really should know. The Stockholm-based Brit is a busy record dealer and online store owner as well as DJ and producer with a penchant for timeless disco and house. He showcases this in his productions, but also via his much-loved Parkway and Parkwest labels which explore both the soulful and more punchy sides of disco and early house. Loosely defined by raw drums, sweet Italo melodies and hints of early garage, this work has made him a firm favourite of everyone from Hunee to Jamie Tiller to Eris Drew.

After 30 years in the game, there aren't many aspects of house and disco he hasn't explored. All that feeds into his glorious mix for us, which is in celebration of the 10-year Parkway Records anniversary in mid-October. It is packed with happy, classy tunes and big vocals from across the ages. The crunchy drum textures and tinny melodies, warm basslines and infectious claps all transport you to a utopian dance floor packed with smiling faces and loose limbs. It's a life-affirming selection that will uplift and enrich your soul.

The tape recorder was running, this was about 3a.m. on a Chicago night 2001. My friday night party, "The Hole". We did this party for about a year in Chicago, it was private. I gave Toby many of these recordings, he named this tape like many back then I made by what songs struck him the most. This night is so clear still, many great moment and memories This first from the main boxes of my cassette collection will be an endless series of tape transfers of my music journey through life.

Mark Grusane - Your Sweet Touch (2001 Mix -  Live From The Hole - Chicago)

Who else sounds like Larry Heard? In the late 1980s, The Chicago house producer was one of the first artists – initially as a part of Fingers, Inc., and then as a solo act – to truly stamp their own unique aesthetic onto the nascent style of electronic dance music. Favouring lush instrumentation, foggy chords and dreamy melodies over the more mechanic pounding of many of his counterparts, he inspired the "deeper" sounds of the midwest's second wave, and generations of young clubbers elsewhere around the world. 

This In Focus features close to 3 hours of untouchable deep house beauty from Larry Heard - compiled, mixed and edited by [Giles Smith.](https://www.nts.live/shows/giles-smith)

For longer than anyone can remember, Mika Snickars has been known for his eponymous record shop in Stockholm, Sweden (since 1995, in fact). He’s been a versatile DJ even longer, starting at 3rd grade school discos.  

Mika’s knowledge is deep + wide and his vinyl excursions are legendary (who else caught multiple og Beat Bops in the wild?). 

Through his passion he has gone to influence several generations of Nordic dj’s and producers (not to mention other record stores).

What we have here is a timeless mp3 artifact from a time when Mika was one of the very very few dj's pushing disco in the Nordics. 

Many of the songs here are considered underground classics now, but back in 2000, before vinyl internet as we know it, they were just underground. From the gospel vibes of NYCC to the boogie masterclass of SASS, selection is flawless & life-affirming 🧡

MIKA SNICKARS /// Live in Stockholm, 2000 /// seminal disco set by Nordic master of records 🧡

A soulful three-hour closing set from Danilo Plessow (MCDE) at RDC "Sound Horizon" on 24th November 2023.

RDC 064 - Danilo Plessow (MCDE)

Does it get any better than this? 85 minutes of pure joy. San Soda’s disco dimension is a worldly voyage that’s undoubtedly worth the trip. This makes us remember our early days when we started Festimi with the most innocent intentions to just make people feel good on a Sunday. Did that change? Not when San Soda visits us, that’s for sure.
