Embracing eclecticism is something we admire with artists we feature & our next producer/DJ is no exception. Welcoming Naarm based Aldonna onboard our guest mix series. It's easy to pinpoint why she's become a local favourite within the thriving Naarm scene; her ability to drift in and out of house, techno, breaks, and trance is impressive. However, what elevates her is an innate ability to seek out lost old-school classics from the '90s and early '00s. 

She's notably contributed to the “Feel My Bicep” mix series curated by none other than the legendary international duo BICEP, and recently played at Australia’s longest running New Years Day festival, Let Them Eat Cake.

Indeed, any Aldonna set is physically spontaneous, an uplifting affair that borders on the highly contagious. She recently made her foray into music production, already producing tracks that are becoming stand out moments in her own DJ sets.

Aldonna's comments on the mix: 'I went straight in with this mix , no preparation or playlists made just some good old digging on the spot, incorporating both records and mp3s. Everything felt super organic and I had the most fun recording this! 

I start off the mix with a classic house favourite of mine , Taste - Capricorn. This track is a staple in my sets and I find always lifts the energy in the room. The mix progresses slowly through house, breaks acid house and prog with quite a few fun vocal tracks in between! I always try to balance out my mixes with a good amount of both old and new music and a variation of genres!

I included tracks from some artists I love such as Paramida, CJ Bolland, Luca Lozano, Eris Drew, Fruit , Clint and many more!'

Off the back of his recent ARIA nomination for Best Cover Art, Eben (aka @ekzander) continues to create a surrealistic atmosphere in his portrait series for phase 080-089. Focusing on his fascination of eyes and the human form, he explores abstraction of digital painting mediums and traditional techniques to create warped techno figures.

Eora-based DJ, producer and Start Local Records label-head, Tom Bruce is not one to sit still. Today, he steps up to deliver Lost Sundays Session #022 🏄🏼‍♂️

A pillar of the scene and a regular face at Lost Sundays, Tom Bruce has proved himself and more since his debut EP 'Cloudy Days Often Have The Best Sunsets' released on Eora's @galleryrecordings last year. Often spotted passing the headphones to partner in crime Cleo, this time around he's brewed up a Tom Bruce special - an hour of grooves. In his own words:

"I don't think I've made a mix that didn't include a Fantastic Man gem. The way he blends really hard-hitting bass with softer, also italo-type sounds just creates such interesting tracks that can be played in almost any setting. I caught him playing the Lovejoy party a few months back and it just further cemented my love for everything he does.

I've been listening to quite a lot of Eden Burns lately and just love his approach to making music. He just releases so much stuff and he clearly doesn't take himself too seriously, which I think is really important when making music. He just makes all sorts of crazy, groovy stuff and pushes it out. I've got in the habit of whenever he releases another Big Beat Manifesto, I go back through his discography and almost always find a new song I haven't heard.

Keep an ear out for Kermond, a local Sydney artist that I've recently been playing a lot. He sent over some demos to the label I run, @startlocalrecords, and I just couldn't stop playing them. The same week just I just happen to run into him at a gig and we just got chatting, lovely guy and is just making such cool music. His track Ur Love is a serious earworm!

'Holding On' by Lone Cat is a track I am dying to play out sometime soon. I am an absolute sucker for classic house sounds, anything with some piano and a few gospel vocals I'm weak at the knees haha. I love to sprinkle really uplifting vocal tracks through all my sets cause I just love to share those soulful moments with crowds. People should normalise clenching their fists and singing along in the club.

Coming up in my world: I'm putting lots of time and effort into the label, organising some events with a few local crews, playing shows and enjoying what life has to offer." - @tombruce2

Listen to Lost Sundays Sessions #022 mixed by Tom Bruce.

Lost Sundays Sessions 022: Tom Bruce

“This mix was put together while reminiscing over all the fun and amazing sets I got to dance to over the Summer. I tried to recapture that buzz using  some of my favourite tunes and artists from the past year and also slipped in an unreleased one of our own. Expect a load of fun high-energy house, a bit of breaks, some trancey numbers and a lick of acid.

Hope you enjoy, Thanks xx”
