This week on The Swap Meet, we’re joined by Leon D, probably the busiest DJ in town. His selections were the perfect soundtrack to a warm Auckland evening — from Theo Parrish’s rework of Jill Scott’s “Slowly Surely” to the Stepney classic “I Am the Black Gold of the Sun”, Barry White, Metro Area and ESG, tracing a line through dusty disco, boogie and proto-house.

Earlier, a quiet salute to D’Angelo: deep cuts like “Really Love” (Questlove leak), RH Factor’s “I’ll Stay”, and Don-E’s “So Cold”. Leon closes with Moodymann, Recloose, and his own “Your Love” — love and lost groove intact.
