That playlist moms would put on for us to clean the crib to before we had family over. eating turkey and tamales. playing football with my cousins & taking that walk. Music that feels like these days. 

Happy Holidays from mine to yours.

Our playlist is still updated every couple weeks for you, but every so often we leave weaving sounds together to the experts. SAVVV is a Toronto-based DJ that has curated radio shows for platforms such as There's No Signal, Reprezent Radio, Soulection Radio on Apple Music 1 and several others across the world.

This mixtape is the soundtrack you want playing when you’ve just waved the flame off the tip of the incense stick, decided you’d rather stay in than go out, and you’re fully immersed in whatever you’re doing because you have notifications turned off.

SAVVV x Curves 'Close Knit'

got the opportunity to do a b2b with my brother @soundsofadream for this week's mix. our guest mixes are supposed to be an hour long but soulduro has this effect on you that makes you wanna keep it playing.

thank you for all the support as always. love u

dream avenue (episode 17) [love ave b2b Sean Dream special]

Hi everyone! It's only fitting we end the month of January with a guest mix from the Aquarius king - @boolahradio 

Representing from Nashville, TN, Boolah uses his platform to uplift and empower creators on a global scale, featuring artists near and far to curate a space where creators are free to express themselves - By the Homies. For the Homies. He's introduced me to a lot of amazing djs and producers through his platform, and his story-telling of their "why" is what I believe elevates Boolah Radio among the rest. 

 Y'all are in for a sweeeeet treat with his guest mix cause I sure did :) Peruse your way to the link in my bio or on SoundCloud. With love always!

This mix blends sonic sounds from Afro beats, R&B, Riddim, and a twist on familiar jams. It’s a dynamic range of sounds that is perfect for any cocktail hour or hosting friends. We start off nice and slow then kick it up a notch. Enjoy.

FAMILY & FRIENDS RADIO EPISODE 003 W/ EMANUEL

on march 14, 2024, i made the decision to start my own radio show. it was an idea that i had for a while which went through multiple changes before actually existing, including changing the idea to being a podcast, doing only live events with no radio mixes, and almost scrapping the idea completely.

on march 15, 2024, a day late that i initially intended, i uploaded the first culdesac mix onto this channel (https://soundcloud.com/ontheculdesac/episode1). now we are one year deep and we've had some amazing guest DJs on, we've done 3 live events, and have our own mixtape series with some of our favorite artists.

thank u always for the support. it means the world to us. we'll be coming to a city near you soon.

happy one year anniversary. love u.
