SlothBoogie Podcast

Berlin based Londoner, Nat Wendell plays records with the same unbridled passion and energy that he did back in '98. Since then, his connection with gritty, bass heavy sounds has been visceral, that demands you dance, and means the clubs he plays are always filled with energy and wholly locked into his groove. His up-tempo sounds draw on real emotions and feelings that always keep heads as busy as heels. From the deeper end of House the spectrum to more physical Techno offerings, he reaches for music that mirrors his own emotions and that never fails to hit the mark.

Nat has played all over the capital, London from 93 Feet East to Plan B, Crucifix Lane to Vibe Bar including Wire in Leeds, as well as further afield around Europe - more recently in Brno, Czech Republic & new hometown, Berlin. He translates these experiences of seeing how and why music moves people—as well as the lessons picked up on his worldly travels, to inform the music he makes. It is hardware-based machines that allow real and raw, hands on approach where Nat teases out subtle new sounds, refreshing textures and compelling grooves.

"I thought I’d take it back to my roots with this mix, Deep Soulful House - those who know my Soul Aspiration mix series [started over 10 years ago] know where I’m coming from.

Imagine a Sexy Deep House Sunday in your favourite club or a stage at a festival, in the sun..."

The mix was recorded live on 2x Technics with a old rusty mixer.

The sun has been blazing here in the UK so Danny is here to supply some aquatic audio enhancements. Ice creams and sun lotion at the ready!

Mr Doris is something of an anomaly in music. A humbling example of what it takes to truly succeed within the framework of multiple fields. With a steadfast work ethic, an obsessively extensive vinyl library and the willingness to pursue the full extents of his roots (Latin, Soul and Jazz), foundation (Funk/Hip-Hop) and future (Electronic/Dance music)

without any restraints.

"As with most of my mixes, I tried to incorporate as much of my influences as possible. So you'll hear everything from soul, funk, disco and house to latin, afro and even a smattering of electro hip hop for good measure.

It's been an honour and a pleasure to mix this for you!

A big shout out to Graham Sahara for letting me invade his family home to record the mix on his setup!"

“I am, above all, a DJ,” states the always captivating Lea Lisa. The French selector is also a vinyl addict who never stops digging and hasn’t since she first started in 1996. From emotive deep house to driving techno, warm and soulful sounds to jacking club tracks, she has it all in her arsenal. Her sets always effervesce with passion and have lead to high praise from greats like Kerri Chandler and Jovonn. They have also taken her from clubs everywhere China to Copenhagen, New York to Paris, as well as high profile festival stages at Nuits Sonores, Southern Soul Festival and Polaris.

Lea’s much-loved No Boundaries Radio Show on Universal Rhythms offers an even broader window into her collection. Each episode finds her share many different sounds and stories from her eclectic collection as she joins the dots between the past, present and future. This well-informed knowledge and understanding of dance floor dynamics also play out in the music Lea makes, which has so far been spun by the likes of tastemakers such as Ron Trent, Tyree Cooper, Laurent Garnier or Anthony Nicholson to name a few.

They say 'house is a feeling', and it's a feeling which courses through Lea's very bones. This one is very much for the headz, but in a manner that's enjoyable for all.

Anyone familiar with the work of HDSN has seen him make big waves, leading the line so brilliantly for his own imprint NUTHIN BUT A SOUL THING over the course of its twelve physical releases. If you've heard his most recent EP 'Break Ups 2 Make Ups"' or the outstanding debut release "We Must Protect This House" on his new sub-label (which received an overwhelming response from the likes of Pete Tong to Shadow Child, Cinthie and many more of the scene´s true heroes) you will know he is an artist unconfined to the restraints of the norm, and he displays this once again within guest mix edition #287. fill your boots people, it's the weekend once more.

"The last months felt like time was standing still. But now I feel some new energy and motivation to dig for music. The last year was super challenging for the music scene but I feel that we will head to some better days now. So this mix is driven by a positive feeling but still includes some mellow moments. I love to melt melancholy with optimism."

If you want to picture the sound of Sarah Wild, you have to combine pulsating 80s-wave with driving avantgarde house, add a few servings of acid (-techno), and some trippy live saxophone elements. Sarah is a professionally trained saxophone player and also versatile on the piano, and this all comes through in today's mix.

She is part of the labels "Tal der Verwirrung", "Feines Tier" and "Love Foundation Global" while working on creating her own imprint "Midnight Operators".
