Sam PV (He/Him) - Live at (Re)treat 2024

Sam PV is the founder and a resident at Pumping Velvet, a London-based Queer dance party. Sam grew up in London, his tastes moulded by the city’s diverse dance music scenes: from childhood trips to Notting Hill Carnival, to formative dancefloor experiences at nights like FWD, Trash and Süd Electronic. He brings these influences to his DJing in sets that span a broad gamut of genres, tied together by a love for big drums, pop melodies and sleaze.

Notes on the Mix ///

"This mix is a live recording of my set from the most recent edition of Vietnam's (Re)treat festival, taking place in the beautiful location of Mai Châu. The set acted as a love letter to my wonderful queer friends and family who turned up to turn out the dancefloor while I played and features a number of queer producers who's music I hold dear <3 It opens with a patient stretch of house tunes, both new and old, before letting loose with Mexican electroclash, UKG and straight up pop bangers. I hope you have as much fun listening as I did playing!"

XOXA BLEND 235 - Sam PV

💥Recorded live at Bounce House on 5/10/24 between 2-5am💥

We welcome a special guest with sharp ears, refined palette, and no shortage of accolades: Russell E.L Butler is a methodical and diligent student of music, thoughtfully pursuing and evoking concepts through sound as a highly inspired producer, exploratory DJ, and musical archivist (recently having worked on digitizing a large portion of Frankie Knuckle's extensive record collection). Inspired by personal experience and history, Butler sets concepts into motion with intellectually informed but emotionally mediated sounds. Butler is one half of Boyz2Them with Bounce alum and Philadelphia favorite Adab. With releases on labels like Opal Tapes, T4TLUVNRG, Fixed Rhythms, Left Hand Path, and Mister Saturday Night, Butler's production touches on classic house and machine-music-techno, with some slamming queer nonbinary anthems you may very well have heard on our dancefloor.

Russell E.L. Butler - Live at Bounce House 5/10/24

This a recording of my set at Nowadays Nonstop from December 2024.

Shared this to commemorate the Voüch zine I was on the cover of for Valentine's weekend 2025 ~~~ (insta: @vouchwick)

Did you get your copy?
Gotta ask IRL 
when you see me or Zach <3

before it's out of our hands and into the archives.....

~Reflections~

My favorite moments in the mix are when a sense of urgency to play around, to switch moods, to linger and lean into experiments,  all of it riles up and smooths out the beat connection again and again. Just like the oceans tide, it comes in swells of beautiful music and risky stitching of all the messages together. It's not perfect, but I am living in these songs for this moment. Washing them through my being and my perspective, that's the fun part and the part I feel the deepest, that somehow I'm bringing this music to life through appreciation and reverence. 

Giving you something new at the end. The culmination of all the inspiration - is new music - sonically pushing to channel more light to this world.

Liam J (he/him)

Liam is a DJ, dancer and party host based in South London. He’s the co-founder and resident of non-profit dance party Handclap, which has hosted guests including Seb Odyssey, Wallace and Tia Cousins. His tastes took root with early disco, before tracing the queer histories of electronic dance music through house and techno… tastes that have been honed over a decade on the capital’s queer dancefloors at parties like Chapter 10, Pumping Velvet and Adonis. His DJing revolves around house music and all of its subgenres, with doses of industrial muscle, dreamy atmospherics and plenty of sleaze.

Notes on the Mix ///
This is a section of a live set from last year, recorded at a party with friends in the Norfolk countryside at the beginning of summer. This was a pretty rare case of feeling totally at ease when playing, and the music flowing freely… the result of a perfect balance between considered prep, improvisation, and a great energy flowing through the dancefloor. It’s pretty upbeat (for me), lots of groovers, some classics, nice textures, and a bit sexy too. Hope you enjoy!

Josh Watkins (he/him)

Josh Watkins is a Brooklyn based DJ and co-founder of DIY party series and event space, The Hole - a project that aims to preserve space in NYC for people to dance that centers intimacy and community, and is free from the distortion of commodification and profit. With a musical focus on texture and emotion rather than any one genre, Josh plays to the convergence of body and mind. 

Notes on the Mix ///
"This mix is a reflection of my current musical and emotional states—attempting to lean deeper into weirder, fuller sounds while still maintaining groove, clarity, and occasional sass. Turn this mix on when you want to get lost in the palace of your mind and dance along the way."
