5 NEW DJ MIXES FROM THIS MONTH TO HAVE A LISTEN TO
From Dream Pop to Amapiano – 5 DJ mixes from July 2023
SYSTEM Mix 095: Akanbi
Known for versatile selection and infectious positive energy, the NYC-based Groovy Groovy head honcho supplies a mix built for the summer months, with loose grooves and sunset melodies clashing with heavy soundsystem ammunition. If you’re sweating… you’re doing it right.
NTS Radio: Trinh – 7th July
An hour of covers and nostalgic feels, playing a wide range of genres with a focus on L-O-V-E.
Crack Mix 505: Laura BCR
With both her own productions and DJ sets, Laura BCR tends towards immersive, ambient techno terrains – which is exactly what she brings here, curating a blissed-out journey filled with cosmic and hazy sounds.
In her own words, this is a “drum’n’dub-based atmospheric mix spanning genres between unreleased and fave tracks that I’m playing at the moment.” One to get lost in during a summer’s afternoon.
Windrush 75 mix: Tash LC (Reggae / Dub)
For anyone that wants to relive carnival… An all vinyl (bar a few tunes) reggae / dub mix with some sprinklings of calypso too. These selections mainly span from the early 1960s to the ’90s and features big choons like ‘Tu Sheng Peng’ and Jennifer Lara’s Lover’s anthem ‘I Am In Love’, as well as B-sides and instrumentals from Admiral Bailey and Dennis Bovell.
DUMMY MIX 011: Yokel
Eclectic two hour tour-de-force via the man behind Rat Life Records, Credit 00. Follow this mix with conviction resting on the knowledge that Credit 00 knows his stuff — expect a diverse range of top tier records, weaving together rare synth-wave, new wave industrial, art punk and unrecognised classics.
