what i’ve been listening to

leave a comment

It’s been a while since I last wrote here and I apologize for it.

Well, here’re some mixes I’ve been really enjoying lately:

Claude Young Live @ Dommune, Tokyo – 16-05-2010: a new two and half hour mix from Claude Young, recorded live at Dommune in Tokyo last week. That’s what DJing is all about, nuff said.

Takasi Nakajima, 2010.415: another nice one from the Cynet-Media camp – an hour of deep techno from Takasi Nakajima. For fans of Orlando Voorn’s NightVision imprint, don’t forget to check out his latest mix that features material from NightVision.

Quince Live @ Awakenings 04-04-2010: Bram Sluiter really nails it with this shit. Quality.

LWE Podcast 50: Mike Huckaby: a killer mix from Detroit’s own Mike Huckaby.

Last but not least: The Black Dog Drifting and Sometimes: two beautiful ambient DJ mixes from tBd who just released a brilliant ambient album on Soma Records.
