«My approach to DJing is all about spontaneity – I let the sound lead the way. Every vinyl I add to a mix is a direct response to the track before it, creating a flow that feels organic and alive.

That’s why I never plan my sets in advance. For me, the real magic of a performance comes from interacting with the energy in the room, reading the crowd, and letting the music shape the journey in real time.

I took the same approach while recording this mix for Tiella Sound – letting instinct and emotion dictate the selections, allowing the records to guide the way.»

Genres aren’t the main coordinates here; I chose tracks that, no matter the style, can make you dance, even when you don’t expect it.»

My feeling about Tiella Sound is that of a free space, populated by artists and selectors who are great and educated listeners. So I decided to try something different—building a journey to follow with patience, letting ourselves be carried away in this mix of deep vibes, percussions, tropical sounds, and hypnotic loops.

«This mix is a collection of slow, hypnotic tribal tracks that pull you into a deeper groove. It’s not about going full shamanic with Himalayan hats and such; it's just that after some digging in Tokyo, Lisbon, and London, I realized the stuff I was buying had sort of a theme going on, and I found myself drawn to these sounds.

Clearly, the influence of the Italian Afro/Cosmic scene emerges strongly in this mix. I really enjoy how the slower tempos, paired with deep basses and repetitive yet organic rhythmic patterns, don’t just get you moving physically — they make you feel the music mentally.

I thought Tiella Sound would be the perfect place to record this mix, given the care and attention they show for the quality of music and their cherished, refined sound.»

In the Netherlands, the Kapsalon is a perfect example of synergy between different cultures, a dish that combines many of the country's ethnic components: Turkish kebab, local fries and cheese, and finally, a generous dose of Indonesian sambal sauce to top it all off. Layers and layers of greasy beauty that inevitably spill over each other to create a delicious intersection of cultures and tastes.

Federico Dask, long involved in the electronic music scene - mainly as a journalist and public speaker for Soundwall - has wondered what would happen if he tried to apply the same blend in a DJ set, without imposing any limits or dogmas to his sound. Will the result be just as delicious? Lace up your dancing shoes and come find out!

«While sifting through the dustiest corners of our beloved musical heritage, I stumbled across an absolute hidden treasure: around 3.000 Italo Disco and Synth-pop jams out of which I carefully selected a handful that became my Summer's soundtrack, to the point where my girlfriend would hum them while walking around at home. Wouldn't be surprised if some of you would do the same after listening to this guestmix.»

Thanks to her Danish/Argentinian roots, and her upbringing in the land of Bass & Garage, her sets are a testament to a rich blend of cultural influences, with a focus on punchy basslines, diverse percussive patterns, groovy breaks and hard-hitting house.

«For this mix, I kicked things off with some slower, bongo drum-infused tracks to set the mood before gradually ramping up the BPM into a more percussive bass style set because, honestly, I can't get enough of percussive bass.

The mix is diverse, also featuring some nice touches of Latin-influenced music that weave throughout the set.

I was really happy to get to play two of my favourite tracks at the moment: "All Like That" by Moktar and "Vera" by Darama. Both are sick artists and are doing a very cool job of incorporating Arabic and South Asian instrumentals into their tracks. Have a listen with some friends if you want a little boogie or a boost of energy!»

«This is a vinyl-only mix that you can easily enjoy at home, in the car, or simply in the club. It aligns with my vision in terms of DJing, which shares many similarities with Tiella Sound.

Additionally, I included a few tunes that I used to regularly play at our private Loft Party at La Terra over two decades ago. La Terra was a private mansion owned by my spiritual father and mentor, Joe Palesky, one of the most prominent Italian record collectors. Sadly, Joe passed away a couple of years ago. Without him, I wouldn't have been able to create such beautiful music experiences.»
