Eddward Currelly took it gently with his career. He spent over 20 years behind the decks playing for any sort of events - from birthday party to weddings.

Then the year 2009 came and C's first EP was released. Since then, time flew by quick for Eddie. He followed his canadian friends and moved to Berlin, released his debut album 'Parts Unknown' on Endless Flight and graced a lot of other quality labels with his beautiful, deep Slo Mo grooves.

Sergio Similis aka Seranthonys career as a DJ began in the early 90s in the small town Solothurn. While many DJs started their career in Solothurn and then moved to the bigger cities like Zurich or Berne, Sergio remained faithful to the arguably most beautiful baroque city of Switzerland and dedicated himself to the developing of the club culture in this city. With his club “the hidden” which he opened over 10 years ago together with his buddy Bidu, he not only created a cultural space in his city, but he created a flagship for the whole country. This tiny, underground venue opens twice a month and invites guests like Chez Damier, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Gerd Janson, Thomas Melchior, but also works a lot with national and regional DJs. Sergio himself doesn’t like to be in the spotlight but when he stands behind the decks, be it at the hidden, at the Cabaret in Zurich or anywhere else, there’s always a sort of magic in the air. He always spinns the right record at the right time.

Zukie & Sanders have their own Podcast series coming out every two weeks. For this mix, Zukie173 selected some Tracks to warm us up during winter.
