The New LoFi Mixtape

This month we’ve got new music from Club 8, Ms Ray, The Parade, Officer John, Eichhorn and many more. This mix is a blissed out journey through indie pop, synth, and eletronica with a special feature instrument: the marimba. Plus it’s curated by special guest Jarrett Edmund, photographer, festival veteran and long-time TNLF writer.

Everything is fresh as always (while reaching back to 2019 with a deep Alex Kassain instrumental cut). So kick back, vibe out, and enjoy!

This month we’ve got new music from Overmono, Collect 200, Fcukers, Jimi Polo, Billy Inns, Yung Singh, and many more. It’s a mixtape deticated to the dancefloor: indie house of every flavor. The mix goes bonkers around 35 mins when the new Overmono single enters the chat. So good.

As always all the music is new, except this time we are kicking the mix off with a single that is just over ten years old this month. We wanted to include Julio Bashmore’s single, “Holding On” to kick off the mix to celebrate a song that still holds up over the test of time.

Check out the video for Holding On by Julio Bashmore

June 2026 Mixtape Playlist

We’ve got a little something different for you this month. It’s a Mixtape takeover. 

We just launched a new radio show on the website called Fizzy Legs Radio where record label boss, Jason Smith takes you through some deep cuts. Jason has always had a fascinating ear for music … he’s always uncovering interesting new artists and the way he connects and curates a wide range of music… it’s great. 

So I thought for this month I’d do a Fizzy Legs Radio takeover of the mixtape. The mixtape plays the Febraury episode in full (stream it below). Also check out his other episodes from the the series: Fizzy Legs Radio Mar 2026, Fizzy Legs Radio Jan 2026. And if you like what you hear, head over to the Fizzy Legs Mixcloud page for more.

But for now, enjoy Fizzy Legs Feb in full below.

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.
