Papa Spice, the DJ behind legendary Sydney after-hours club, Spice (Cellar), has been making his own grooves for a few years now, and his latest is an early 90s-flavoured deep house chugger that tickles the ivories and warms the cockles of your bass heart.
Shan Frenzie
https://www.mixcloud.com/Frenzie/dj-shan-frenzie-the-zulu-beat/
A Sydney veteran and funkateer extraordinaire whose podcast Groove Therapy has been gracing the radio waves for nearly fifteen years. This new mix is an excellent bunch of classic breakbeats – some new some old – put through the blender, layered with vocal grabs, and a bunch of cuts.
Trinity
http://www.juno.co.uk/products/trinity-orchard/605033-01/
This Maltese Sydneysider started off with her own reputable night Loose Kaboose before taking the bull of original music by the horns and producing her own blend of minimal tech-house and techno. This latest EP is dark, minimal, very Berlin.
John Devecchis – The Owl
https://soundcloud.com/owl_the/pimp-talk-editorial-records-out-now-digi-vinyl
JD has been around the Sydney traps for many moons, a staple of the terrace@home when proper house ruled the roost, he’s played pretty much every venue in the city. His own productions resonate deep, soulful, funk vibes and his latest exudes a seductive ghetto groove.
Bruno Dante
https://hearthis.at/brynstar/zephyr/
A champion of all things funkalicious, the DJ known as Brynstar has a party going on with a seriously thang mix. Familiar grooves and others on the more rarer tip are given the re-edit and pumped up remix.
Johnny Gleeson & McLaren
Sydney seasoned pro, and another all-round nice guy, Johnny teams up with a couple of other locals to produce a proggy tech-house track designed for the balmy all-nighters of Ibiza. It’s a moody number that throbs away giving pause to a lilting Latin trumpet break, and then back to the pulsing throng.
Alba – Knokke/Law
Alba were formerly known as Albatross, the Sydney duo have releases a fine record full of their trademark warmth and attention to detail. Knokke is driven by 909 hats and kick, repitched vocals and deep disturbing sounds. Law is a bonafide blast with its percussive action and scrapes building into a melodic feast for the ear.
Enschway & LOLO BX
Nic Schweighoffer creates a unique electronic dance beat sound that will have you getting down.
Montaigne – In The Dark
