November 2025 Mixtape Playlist

This month we are going to get into some underground techno and indie house. We have new music from Gilligan Moss, Swimming Paul, Barry Can’t Swim, The Blaze, Mindchatter, Yuksek, A/S/L and even a couple tracks using some retro samples, including one that samples  Nelly Furtado’s track, “say it right” and another that samples Kool & The Gang’s track, “Celebration.”

This month’s mixtape feels like a night that starts on a rooftop at sunset and somehow ends in a sweaty 3 AM warehouse, before emerging from the club in the early hours to catch the sunset. The mix opens with the glistening optimism of Gilligan Moss and Lemonade Baby, then dips into silky pop nostalgia with that sly Tiffy Vera remix of “Say It Right” by Nelly Furtado.

By the midpoint, Swimming Paul and Mindchatter steer things into darker, more melancholic territory—perfect for the 2 AM head-nodders—only to let Yuksek and MELVV crack the blinds open with glimmers of sunrise. The back half pushes deeper into peak-time techno — Thomas Schumacher’s double-hit of “Umbra” and “Ex Machina” is down and dirty techno at it’s best. But we offer up a soft-landing into the euphoric hug of Barry Can’t Swim and the cinematic close of The Blaze live at the Royal Albert Hall.

It’s a journey mix—equal parts rooftop champagne pop, underground sweatbox, and sunrise catharsis—the kind of set that reminds you why you fell in love with late-night dance culture in the first place.

This month we join James in East London in search of some of his favorite New York food: bagels. I know this isn’t a food blog, but a good New York-style bagel has pretty much been impossible to find in London… that is, until we tried Paulie’s Bagels. So I thought I had to share here.

When I had this generously filled bacon, egg, and cheese bagel in my hand, it was like I was back in Brooklyn. If you are looking for a little taste of NYC, I highly recommend looking this place up.

(I’m not sponsored by these guys, by the way. Just love a good New York Bagel).

Alright, back to the music. This month we have two hours of what can only be called a bit of escapism. It’s two hours of jazz, indie electronic, funk and tropical psychedelic to fill your soul. It features new music from The Ironsides, Sven Wunder, Pearl & the Oysters, Mulatu Astatke, Doctor Bionic, Goose Down, Lars Fiil, Sweatson & Klank, The Groovy Nobody, and many many more.

Get involved!

(before you get into the music, here are some videos from the music on this month’s mixtape

Pearl & The Oysters pyscedelic visuals for their new single, “Side Quest”

Pachyman’s live session from recording “Switched-On”

The retro Hermanos Gutierrez video for their track “Barrio Hustle”

And last, but certainly not least, the very hilarious video for God Colony & Roy’s single, “Loss is not Infinite”

PS: Go buy the new album from The Ironsides!
