Here comes a wonderful mix to start into the new year with. Perfect for a little dance to blow away that grey in grey madness, it will definitely cheer you up!

Our dear friend Subradeon is the next for our OYE Podcast series. This 3 hours mix is a live recording from our OYE night at Renate. It´s a groovy house mix full with funk, soul and jazz influenced vibes.

Subradeon is a musical mission started more than fifteen years ago in southern Italy, well known as a territory rich in artistic and musical vanguards, with the intention to continue and be an active part of that message born in Detroit’s streets in the middle 80’s: “live the music” as a universal message, as the most important thing, as a cultural movement. One thing is clear, from the first listen one can appreciate their innovative ability, their creativity in mixing different styles, honoring the pure techno sound with the soul of Motown combined with elements that range from hip hop to jazz, from funk to soul.

2018 is the year of Subradeon Records. “God Bless” EP was the first release that opened the doors to the electronic music scene. From there followed a series of releases on several labels such as Hardgroove, Rekids, Sous Music, Character, and two new EPs on Subradeon records. Subradeon has established a powerful role behind the decks, showcasing its skills at renowned clubs such as Tresor, Radion, Kalt, Watergate, and many more around Europe. “Trying to accurately convert the human experience into sound”.

In an exciting development for OYE Records, the renowned Berlin record shop is set to relaunch with an anticipated debut EP from fast-rising local artist LACATY . LACATY's journey into the industry began through a serendipitous meeting with an OYE team member through Femme Bass Mafia and eventually found their own paths. As the idea of releasing a debut EP came up, it felt natural for LACATY and them to join forces. Relocating to London marked a pivotal moment in LACATY's career. Immersed in the city's vibrant energy, she was among a select group chosen for the AVA Creator Forum, where she honed her skills and creative practice. The distance from Berlin's social scene provided the mental space to fully develop her ideas, resulting in a debut EP. "I wanted to create what I play – tracks that are not only energetic and punchy but also filled with emotion," LACATY shared. "Being in London, away from the familiar Berlin vibe, allowed my sound to evolve naturally, unconfined by genre expectations." Designed to heat up any dance floor, all three tracks feel like an ode to the vibrant 90s music scene. They are woven together by a blissful euphoria, while simultaneously evoking a sense of nostalgia.
