Cool Ecstatic Dance Dj Mixes Five 2023

For our 50th edition and almost a year since the inception of this mix series we are ecstatic to have one of the undisputed legends of the house and techno scene to celebrate this milestone: @djnickwarren.

You can tell when Nick Warren is on the decks. The music emanating from the DJ booth is that perfect club mix of driving percussion and soaring musicality, bursting out of the speakers, soaking everyone in melody, drenching them in sound.

To this day, Warren remains at the forefront of club culture: he packs clubs and arenas worldwide from London to Buenos Aires to Burning Man, transfixing dancefloors with his distinctively forward blend of credible progressive sounds, deeper tunes, atmospheric layers and any other grooves Warren deems appropriate for his turntable.

Nick Warren became one of the first so-called "superstar DJs" in the mid-to-late '90s, holding down a high-profile residency at Cream in England, touring around the world, and appearing on several DJ mix albums before they became commonplace. Though he spun an eclectic array of dance styles in the late '80s and early '90s, he eventually championed the late-'90s trance sound of labels like Hooj Choons and joined the ranks of other superstar DJs like Paul Oakenfold, Sasha, and Tall Paul.

Warren moved to Bristol in the 1980s after having just turned 20. By the early '90s, he was one of the city's top DJs, spinning upstairs at Vision, one of the city's first super-clubs. At the time, Warren spun everything from dub and hip-hop to house, which became his preferred style.

When fellow Bristol artists Massive Attack left to tour America in the wake of their early success, they invited Warren to accompany them on tour as their official DJ, a testament to his turntable skills as well as his reputation at the time. Eventually, Warren began a massively successful stint as the resident DJ at Cream in Liverpool.

The years that followed saw Nick Warren enjoy a whirlwind of success. Through a combination of providing acclaimed mixes for Mixmag, DMC, and the hugely successful Global Underground series, and releasing a string of club-smashing solo singles, Warren found himself catapulted into the electronic and house big leagues; and, by continuing to release acclaimed albums, singles, and remixes with his Way Out West partner-in-crime, Jody Wisternoff, and remixing tracks for the likes of Lana Del Rey, he firmly established himself as a truly multi-faceted producer of top-quality dance music.

Having already graced the decks at every self-respecting super-club on the planet and made his name as a superstar DJ, the late Noughties saw Warren turn his hand to the business side of the music industry. Now, as the A&R of Bristol-based Hope Recordings, he spends his time seeking to hone and promote the next generation of club-smashing DJ and production talent; and, through the expansion of his label The Soundgarden into a globe-straddling international events and entertainment brand, set in stone his already firmly-established reputation as a giant of electronic, techno, and house music.

Flow Sessions 050 - Nick Warren

A born and bred Berliner who never had to learn how to be one, Britta reflects the city in which she still calls home: a little edgy, a little down to earth and always filled with artistic ambition. Having once lived in a caravan with her cat ‘katuscha’ on the grounds of the Bar25, she takes this Happy Camper vibe with her into every space she enters, whether the club, the festival, the studio or a walk through her home town. With the support from her global electronic family pushing her in the right direction and a naughty box of tunes on her back, the future of this lady from outer space only goes from strength to strength. So get your space suit on and go intergalactic roaming with your best friends and lovers. Do it to the hypnotic and wired sound of Britta Arnold.

Words from the artist:
For me, the last month was a journey of ups and downs of emotion, and I am happy. I went through all the feelings and emotions, and I re-tuned myself to become more grateful for everything I have. My set reflects these emotions: it has powerful moments and some softer parts. We can only see the light when we acknowledge our shadows and accept all sides. I hope I will be able to play all these amazing tracks again out loud for you, and we can once again dance together. Much love Britta Arnold (@britta-1)

Its been more than six months since I’ve had the last chance to play some music in front of a crowd. I tried to put all of my hope, my love & dedication as well as my anger into this DJ mix. This journey reflects what I would be playing in the morning hours at a club such as KaterBlau and some melancholic-melodic moments to just make you fly away. I tried to create a mixture of old classics and new tracks - and even three of my upcoming releases. I really hope you resonate with it as much I did. - Love, Milo (@miloh-fliger)

It’s not about the destination, but rather the journey…and this mix encapsulates that.
 
A 3 hour, 33 minute and 33 second journey of tracks that resonate with me on a deeper level. I thoroughly enjoy traversing different genres to create magical moments and a special energy to help tell a story with my music. This mix will allow you to venture through a variety of styles and sounds from a selection of my favourite international and local artists across the deep house, melodic techno and tribal spectrum.
 
I don’t often get the opportunity to create these extended experiences at clubs to really express myself, so when Flow Music called, I had to say yes.
 
I hope you enjoy this journey with me xx

For this podcast, I decided to explore my different facets as an artist. Through sound, I explore all the Paradoxes we face in our lives: throughout the whole 3 hours, 33 minutes and 33 seconds journey, I contrast darkness with lightness, emotions with energy. The podcast starts with softer dance music that I truly enjoy but don’t have the opportunity to play most of the time. The energy levels then gradually increase, reaching the sound I play in peak time, until we finally reach an emotional ending. There are many unreleased (and some unfinished) tracks of mine in this podcast--some for
the dancefloor, some to enjoy on a sunset drive. Some of these songs will come out this year and others in 2023. Can you spot them?

I've always been a huge fan of longer set times as it enables me to fully tell my stories without any boundaries, which is why the concept of Flow Sessions deeply resonated with me early on. I deep dived in my library for days and after everything was set, I've just let it flow in my studio for 3 hours 33 minutes and 33 seconds, fluently grooving to higher BPMs, playing some of the most beautiful tracks I've collected over the years. Some hidden gems, some long forgotten beauties, a few new unreleased tracks of mine... I hope you flow as much as I did while recording this and it makes the upcoming autumn and winter months a little more bearable to you if you're based in the northern hemispheres. If you're to be found in the southern hemispheres I hope it makes you smile to the sun and appreciate life and music to the fullest. Isn't music such a beautiful thing?!

Hello to everybody! I wanted to connect you to the enchantment of Greek summers and the memories they leave behind! I'm in London right now and totally focused on the new music production that my team and I are developing for the upcoming period. As I travel constantly between many countries, this is a really demanding time for me. I consider myself very lucky that my job gives me the chance to regularly encounter new people, new cities, and new cultures that can stimulate my thoughts and help me grow and develop as a person and as an artist.

I had the pleasure of recording an extended mix for FlowMusic. Extended sets are my favorite since I’m not limited for time and can take you on a melodic journey which is always the goal. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride!

With releases on esteemed labels like Oddity, Bedrock, Radikon & most recently This Never Happened with his third studio album ‘The First Last Day'. We are very proud to have him on the series & hope you enjoy! Words from the artist:

"My goal was to make a nice descent with the mix starting smoothly and then increasing rapidly. Then I wanted it to descend again a little before eventually climbing to the top. I hope you guys enjoy the journey!"

In preparation for this 333 mix I spent time making a tracklist varying in genre’s with some major inspirations across my time as a DJ. Songs that stuck with me and really moved me as an artist have been included throughout, intermingled with a progressive journey featuring some originals aswell. It was great being given the opportunity to be able to push outside the boundaries of a standard Australian set time and explore what I would do when I play for over three hours somewhere. I approached it in this manner and recorded it in one take with one recording. I have poured myself into this mix and presented it unaltered as a raw expression of my abilities . 
This set starts at 140 bpm and ends at 110 so it is sure to take you on a journey no matter the space you are listening to it in.

For my upcoming Australian debut, this 03:hr:33min long audio journey gave me the opportunity to play with energetic dancefloor music, progressive elements, melodic vocal tracks, and leftfield indie vibes, and of course a few tracks accompanied with electric violin to describe the musical story. Playing such an extended set, I felt like hiding some unreleased music in between this never-ending romance with sound - so enjoy it with a good pair of speakers and casual sense of humour! Allow yourself to be danced by the music and don’t take it all too seriously. <3 Seth @seth-schwarz

If you were to ask, DADADISCO wouldn't name a single specific source of their inspiration. These two French gourmands take in and digest pretty much everything, from hard rock and heavy metal to synthetics and ambience... That means you can expect anything from Denis and Guillaume but cliché. Design, art, cinema and fashion are just as important to them as music. And it all comes through in their sets. These gents are very much the products of the "promiscuous and omnivorous" disco mayhem, forever imprinted in the collective memory of club culture as Bar25. It was through this jolly demonic mill, fumes and flames, thick and thin, that this combo blazed their way onto Berlin's raucous music scene. Veritable performers, their epic endless sets were somewhat of a cross between music and circus. When it closed for good, DADADISCO went global, spreading their retro-futuristic sound along with their overtly surrealist attitude. "Dada" in their name refers, of course, to a movement that in the mid-20th century famously repudiated and mocked all sorts of artistic conventions while emphasizing the illogical and absurd. DADADISCO keeps experimenting with genres and influences to discover and deliver their own unique blend of sexy electronica, always favouring spontaneity over etiquette. The name sticks on all of these counts.

Tout est DADA, DADA est partout.

After so many months of not having a proper dance floor, being close to all the dancers and living the familiar routine of playing every weekend it was a special journey to create a three an a half hours mix for me. Within the last year I realised more than ever that electronic music and the culture that comes with it is one of the most appreciated parts of my life and I guess it was like that for many people, too. This mix is a reflection of that. I wanted to create a mix that includes all of the different variations of four to the floor music I like. My intension was to have a groovy and drifting but also smooth and diverse vibe. I was digging deep in my music collection to include some of my old favourite tracks combined with some new stuff. I wanted to have a slow dance atmosphere with a soft and light touch...a flowing space to dive into. - Mimi @spreedelay
