The track I’ll be opening my next DJ set with
Traumprinz: Neeeeed
Sets the mood for what’s hopefully to come. It’s rolling, a little trippy, intimate, slightly out of time.
The track I always play to rescue a dancefloor
Terrence Parker & Claude Young Jr: The 4 Play EP
I found this record on the street in Brooklyn – it didn’t work well for that person but for me one track from this record gets played every set.
The track I wish I’d signed to my label
1991: Thermoform Slogans
I’m just glad it exists.
The track I think has been unfairly slept on this year
Echoplex: The VS Theme
Serene but melancholic techno that puts me in the same headspace as tracks like Televised Green Smoke and Domina do. Future classic.
The track I’d play to show off my eclectic tastes
M Ashraf Feat Nahid Akhtar: Ho Jeth Ji Aaj Main
It’s sick! Showing off, however, is not sick.
The track that got me out of bed this morning
Unknown: Kasa Odori
From a mixtape of beautiful Japanese folk music from Japan Blues on The Trilogy Tapes.
The ideal festival track
Members Only: Get Another Love
We making party!
The best track by my favourite new artist
Hank Jackson: Mongoos
A unique voice and feel for groove. Don’t sleep!
The track I’d play at my auntie’s wedding
Get Some Crew: Run Forest Run
My aunt and my mom were out clubbing for most of the 90s. They’ve settled down now, but I bet she’d love a trip down memory lane with this one.
The track I wish I’d never played
Levon Vincent: No Regrets
I love all the music I’ve played in some way.
The track I’d play at sunset in Ibiza
Stephanie Mills: What Cha’ Gonna Do With My Lovin’
A cheap’n’deep record – get a copy in your local dollar bin and fall in love with music again.
The track that should have been a crossover hit
Juju & Jordash: Jewsex
Killer.
The track I’d play at my funeral
Huerco S: Angel (Phase)
This song can transport you to higher states of consciousness if you let it. Fuck death!
