Crazy Rhythms were Dan Selzer and Mike Simonetti. They DJ'd sometimes. Mike was partial to old-school hip-hop that sounds likes disco and dirty, dirty house music and Dan was partial to gay electronic disco and new wave that sounds like house music. They both like Post-Punk and Acid, and they invented No Wave. Their beatmatching skills were impeccable, but used sparingly. They have DJ’d at all the cool clubs and some of those crazy Brooklyn loft parties you only read about.

In 94, Mike founded Troubleman Unlimited Records and is now the label par-excellence for cutting edge hipster sounds such as Erase Eratta, Glass Candy and Tussle. In 99, Dan founded Acute Records to reissue lost art-punk from the late 70s like the Theoretical Girls, Metal Urbain and the Prefects. While they were both well known and regarded for their collection of punk 7″s, they’d also like to be known for their 12″s.

By the end of the 90s, they decided it was time to teach the punks how to dance. Mike started Contort Yourself at the Knitting Factory and Dan began Transmission at Plant bar with Luke from the Rapture. It seemed like something was in the air, a post-punk disco-funk zeitgeist. Due to the sudden popularity of such sounds, the Crazy Rhythms crew became the most sought-after DJs EVER. Dan was voted “Best DJ’s DJ” in the Village Voice and Mike became a resident in Ibiza where Paul Oakenfold recently opened for him.

The mix you hold in your hands was recorded during a time when there was nobody who would say, “man, Italo-disco is played out” or “don’t you know that track is on so-and-so’s mix/an import bootleg/a CitiBank commercial?” No, those were more innocent times. It features Italo-Disco, New Wave, Post-Punk, No Wave, Actual-Disco, Danish Remixes of Glam One-Hit Wonders from ex-Bubblegum Artists, you know, all the same stuff everyone else plays. Of course thes records are all original pressings, M/NM quality, light scuffs on the b-side and a bit of surface noise on the play out groove.

Release Date: August 30th, 2005

Blitz Live : Richard Akingbehin : 22/03/2025

Richard Akingbehin – the tasteful selector known for his engrossing, soothing soundscapes and the driving force behind Berlin’s Refuge Worldwide and Kynant Records – made his Blitz debut in late March 2025, playing alongside DVS1 and Ogazón. A night shaped by deep cuts, subtle shifts and tactile Techno!

We’re pleased to share a recording of the first half of his opening set – and took the chance to ask Richard a few questions about the night, too: find them in our Blitz Magazine:

Blitz Live : Richard Akingbehin : 22/03/2025

DJ Spirit [@xxdeejayspiritxx] is the co-founder of Praxis and has been active in the Montreal underground scene since 2017.  Here are few words about the mix...

This hour-long mix was inspired by some recent mixes I’ve been listening to over the last few months. Really into some recordings from the 2000s that are 116bpm-ish early morning sunrise energy, and this has a bit of that essence (A good mix to check out is the Troy Pierce Mix on Dance Shake Swing from Sept 2008, it's on Soundcloud). I decided to rev it up in the latter half but I still think it remains “deep” and keeps rolling along…which is my favourite energy to dance to. Hope you enjoy!

LUBRIKATE YOUR LIVING ROOM

Episode 01 - 'Gradually & Then Suddenly' by Casper Clark

Synopsis : I was listening to some mixes by a recent discovery of mine, Kyle Toole, and felt compelled to start grouping some records from my collection into a playlist. As the list began to burgeon, it seemed to be taking on something of a downtempo, you might even say trip-hoppy flavour. Listening to the playlist took me back to being a young teenager in the living room of my childhood home. My Dad was in the grip of an ecstasy-fuelled midlife crisis and would be near-constantly playing Kruder & Dorfmeister’s ‘K&D Sessions’, bootleg Buddha Bar CDs, Leftfield’s ‘Leftism’, The Beloved’s ‘Conscience’ and various William Orbit and Fluke records. I realised over the years what a profound influence this time had on my eventual obsession with electronic music, especially of the deep and transcendent variety. I think there’s a misconception at times that all music that fell under the chill-out banner was somehow banal or wallpaper muzak, but that’s not the way that I see it at all. Hopefully you’ll agree once you’ve listened to this mix, a near 3 and a half hour journey.
