Familiar hooks, fresh beats. For this week’s episode, we’re exploring that beautiful friction between the '70s/'80s disco era and modern production. This is "Disco but Edits" — a deep dive into the world of disco re-edits and nu-disco reimagining. I’ve put together a selection of tracks that pay homage to the legends (think Stephanie Mills, Whitney Houston, Chaka Khan, and Pino D'angio; don’t think Kiss and Technotronic, but they’...

In this week’s episode: sweet classic soulful & vocal house, and 100% DJ Soulmate vibes. :) From 2003 to 2007, soulful house had a special kind of magic - piano-driven hooks, live percussion, and proper songs with full vocal arrangements. I’m playing some of my favorite gems from the era, including tracks from Richard Earnshaw, Jamie Lewis, Roberto De Carlo and Rasmus Faber. Whether you remember these from the first time around, ...

After years of strictly soulful house, I'm exploring sounds that feel like the perfect natural evolution for Summer Fondue. So in this week's episode we're doing another fusion of Modern Funk, Nu-Boogie, and Nu-Disco with soulful edits. We're traveling from the West Coast synth-funk of E. Live and B. Bravo to the chic disco-infused streets of Paris with Yuksek and L'Impératrice, while keeping our roots in place with George Benson ...

This time, it’s all about that sophisticated swinging jazzy house sound. The selection leans heavily into its jazz roots: live brass, saxophone loops, snappy Rhodes pianos, and that unmistakable Parisian energy. It’s the groove that happens when house music meets jazz culture. Urban, classy, and built for those who love a bit of soul in their 4/4 beats, the mix builds from smooth deep-jazz openers into high-energy funk-infused cut...

Sitting in the lockdown, I just felt like djing and hit “Record”. So there it is, 80 minutes of Summer Pandemic Sessions, freestyle of some nice tunes, no skills, no new releases, probably not even soulful, but still worth sharing. Expect works by Cerrone, Chuck Love, INXS, Lisa Shaw, Can 7, Goldroom etc. Published in Jun 2020.
