Vintage grooves for warmer climes from the Love On The Rocks boss. Interview with @paramida: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/paramida "I was pretty tired, had a cold, was in between cities and had time pressure. Guess I was a bit moody and you can hear it out. But it’s groovy and at the end of the day, it’s all about the groove."

Soaring electro heat from the Berlin based Aussie. Interview with @tred-dj: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/tred "I’ve been going through a pretty intense period of self reflection recently and made this recording right in the centre of it all.

House from another realm. Interview with @nomoontrax: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/no-moon "As recently I’ve been playing a lot of sets later on the in night, it feels like I haven’t had much of an outlet for the lighter side of my music collection.

Mind bending ambient techno from the On Board Music boss. Interview with @laurabcr: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/laura-bcr "To be honest I wanted to make something totally different at the beginning, and then due to travels and meetings I got new records and another perception on how it should be.

A moody journey through early left field electronics. Interview with @umutrotation: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/umut "I put together what is in currently in my bag from starting from Lo Fi boogie finishing with some Cold Wave favourites, nothing too rare or hard to find..

Classic deep house from an Edinburgh favourite. Interview with @telfort: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/telfort "For this it’s a mix of some nice deepness leaning into a few different areas, from warmer more upbeat stuff to more full on rippers in the middle somewhere and back to the uplifting gear again.

Live jamming with the Butter Sessions smiling assassin. Interview with @calesexton: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/cale-sexton "The recording is from the Friday night at last year's Hopkins Creek Festival.

Interview with @nummer: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/nummer "90% of this mix is made out of tracks produced (and/or released) by friends of ours (Benoit B, Sentiments, Geena, Deep Nalstrom, Telephones, FIO to name a few). A lot of these tracks are absolutely killer and don’t necessarily get all the attention they deserve so...

Local favourite Millú rewinds to the glory days of UK acid and breaks. Interview with @millydavison: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/millu "I was so nervous before my set at Pitch that I couldn’t set the recorder up, so this mix is a rehashing of what I could remember of the set - there’s a lot of acid and UK breaks and stuff, I hope it translates to the ‘cloud as well as I felt it did out there i...

The Bunker favourite exposes a weirder side of NYC house music. Full interview with @gunnar_haslam: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/gunnar-haslam "I wanted to put together a mix that was a bit slower and housier than usual, but that was still psychedelic and dubbed-out.

Exquisite odds and ends from the Oz Waves master. Interview with @steelebonus: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/steele-bonus "I recorded the mix at the Red Light Radio studio on a Sunday when they are closed.

A special mention has to be given to Antiloop for...

A two hour journey into the night with one of Sydney's most trusted guides. Interview with @magdabytnerowicz: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/magda-bytnerowicz/ "I've been trying to find a place for a couple of sequences in here for aaaaages and it's so satisfying when the pieces of the puzzle fit together in a way that tells a cohesive story.

Beachside bass music. Interview with Rings Around Saturn (@rdjm0): melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/rings-around-saturn "In my own time I make a lot of bass music like digi dub, dubstep, garage, dub techno and jungle, a lot of it doesn't see the light of day besides DJ sets or occasionally live sets because most of it is just for fun. I thought it'd be a good excuse to put together a dub inspired m...
