IN THE MIX

Paradise Loops is a groove infused mix series aimed to provide a backdrop of balearic, anthemic and nostalgic sounds on those sun-soaked glory days.

As we enter into 2022, we turn to a talent that caught our attention back when 1800 Girls invited Will Silver down to open up his curation for Suspect LDN's live stream at Cafe 1001 last autumn. His incredibly well thought out approach to building his set really pricked our ears up. Naturally, we had to get him to record a mix for us in the same vein; so here we are. Read more below..

"I took this mix as a great opportunity to test out new music that I have coming out next year. I wanted to keep the mix fresh by involving lots of 2021/22 releases, the likes of Hugo Massien, Ross From Friends, Supreems. 'Where I'm From' by Digable Planets is a 93' classic which brings me on-tap happiness, so I couldn't leave it out, I feel like everyone needs that record in their life. Was also nice to involve some of my favourite Mawimbi records too. Thanks to Paradise Loops for having me - hope you enjoy it!" - @will-silver-official

Will Silver - 05 March 2024

On this weeks episode of the Feel My Bicep mixtape series, we welcome Will Silver, a force in the UK dance scene. Through production and his Rinse FM show, he’s earned support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, HAAi, Four Tet and more. One to watch in electronic, lets catch up and find out what he’s been up to…

"I had the opportunity to immerse myself living in the vibrant culture of Bogotá earlier this year, where I dedicated my time to wrapping up my upcoming EPs. Connecting with talented Colombian artists through Vandelay Radio, a radio station I co-run with my close friend Dare Balogun. After this, myself and my partner took some time to travel, and my trip ended in Mexico City where I had the honour of closing out the main hall of the legendary [sic] club. Now, back home in London, I’m feeling recharged and ready to tackle new challenges and goals.

The mix was recorded at home, where I set up my turntables and CDJs on my living room table, surrounded by plants, with good lighting and a cup of tea. I wanted the setup to look visually appealing because I decided to film the mix. Capturing both the audio and visuals felt important to me for the mix.

I wanted to maintain a steady groove and energy throughout the show, as that approach reflects my style. I’d like to think that I select tracks that keep the dancefloor alive, but I was keen to introduce some variety to avoid a one-dimensional vibe. To create those subtle shifts, I incorporated tracks from artists like Terry Lee Brown Junior and Envoy, allowing the mix to breathe a bit. Of course though, I had to throw in my new bits too and it was fun to see how they fitted."

Up Next…

"I have lots of club releases coming out. My focus remains on creating music that resonates with the dancefloor. I’ve been making tunes and DJing since I was a kid, and I’ve come to realise that, for me, it’s no longer just about expressing my personal experiences through music. For me it’s about crafting something for others, something fun. What do people truly crave in these spaces? The chance to dance, to have fun, to feel safe, to forget about any troubles they’ve got going on and to be swept away on a joyful journey of transcendence.

As a DJ and club music producer, my goal is to create a space where connection is at the heart of the experience. I want people to feel deeply connected to the music, to each other, and to the moment itself. There’s nothing in the world that compares to that sense of unity on the dancefloor. And that’s why we do it. Some of my happiest moments in life have happened in those spaces, and I’m committed to bringing that experience to others in this vibrant culture. If anyone wants to watch me play, my next confirmed show is on 11th October at Venue MOT!"
