The first ZeeZout Co-Orientations Mix Series of the year is by one of our all time favourites, @san-soda!  

San Soda, also known as Nicolas Geysens, is known in underground music circles as a real record collector. This shows in his predictably unpredictable DJ sets, which are made up of carefully chosen gems after years of crate digging around the world. 

In this mix, Nicolas gets us through 80 minutes of cheerful sounds mixed with disco, enchanting influences and classic house. His selection and mixing skills are definitely a sense of cohesion. 
 
Enjoy the mix! We promise you it’ll light up your day!

Man of the hour X-Coast kicks off our ZeeZout advent calendar with his set from ZeeZout Festival 23. The Serbian-born who’s now hailing all the way from Brooklyn shows us once again why his versatility is taking him from stage to stage across the globe, seamlessly blending influences from all kinds of genres, blending disco samples into playful, upbeat tech-house grooves. Just what you want to hear when it’s 30 degrees out there, or just what you want to be reminded of when it’s December and it’s not anymore.

Some call it winter; others call it club season. Either way, as we brace ourselves for it, there’s no better way to get in the mood than with D. Tiffany & DJ Voices’ set at ZeeZout Festival. Once again affirming the timeless talent of these two artists, this fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek extravaganza barely drops below 140 BPM and would probably work just as well in a dark, steamy club as it did in our beloved little Corner on the 2nd of September. Whether you’re getting ready for a pumped night out with friends in a hazy club or going for a late-night run through a fog-filled park - this is your jam.

Continuing our advent series, we're delighted to showcase the dynamic duo of Skatebård and our very own David Vunk—brothers in arms who require little introduction. What we would like to emphasize once more however, is that we will never get enough of Mr. Bård’s infectious smile and the Vunkinator’s precision in delivering rhythmic movements. Balancing between gritty electro loops and euphoric synths while not holding back on the light-hearted disco and italo vibes, this set might be exactly what ZeeZout Festival was all about if you’d ask us. Friends making friends dance.

Topping off the year in style is Bristol-based Danielle – it’s safe to call her a ZeeZout mainstay by now. Seamlessly blending from euphoric house to quirky 303 melodies, driving basslines, and even some early hardcore-inspired ravey breakbeats, it's not hard to imagine how our beloved Tunnel was bursting at its seams during her set at ZeeZout Festival. Indulge yourselves in a true digger's delight – after you turn the lights down.

Back soon on ZeeZout soil - but let’s keep that between you and me for now 🤫

About time it came online, Nèna is finally taking us down into her wormhole of fast-paced hypnotizing beats. A realm where rhythm is king and breaks and latin influences are interchanged with rattling hi-hats and glitchy synths that remind you of the early days of techno, keeping you on edge all along the two-hour trip.

The chance you haven’t heard at least one of The Flexican’s productions over the past 10-15 years is close to zero. His DJ sets however, are quite rare but always in high demand.

Let us take you on a wild ride back to Liberté Liberté 2025. Picture a sun-flooded courtyard, Lucky Done Gone on his best behavior and stacks and stacks of 90’s induced house bangers, some cheeky 00's edits and all-round good vibes. The kind of energy that doesn’t just stay in the moment, but carries on with you - this one will last you through every summer picnic or rooftop party for sure.

If Darwin were still around, he’d probably name David Vunk the final form of dance floor evolution. 30+ years in the game, still as fresh as ever and not slowing down. His set at Liberté Liberté 2025? Living proof.

As Resident Advisor put it:

"Nothing screams 'pure vibes' like a back-to-back from Move D and Gerd Janson."
