Back to Life
NOTES:
Mood: Springtime, chilled but upbeat
Best for: Daytime/Early Eve
This is a fairly chilled blend of jazz, soul and house. Some 90s gems too!
Sound Rays
NOTES:
Mood: Sunny
Best for: Daytime
This is an extended version of a mix I had played at Lusophonica in Cascais a few months earlier. An upbeat mix, full of soulful, jazz and Latin house.
Sunshine Mix
NOTES:
Mood: Chilled, Sunny, Dreamy
Best for: Days by the pool
Recorded in Marbella during the summer, this is a warm, uplifting mix of Afro and Latin house and nu jazz.
Dance and Dream
NOTES:
Mood: Chilled, Gentle, Dreamy
Best for: Daytime
This mix was strung together while walking along the cliffs of Cascais. It probably holds a mirror up to the more earthy, organic and afro-house influences I was exposed to during my first year living in Portugal.
Sunday Sessions 3
NOTES:
Mood: Soulful, Chilled, Uplifting
Best for: Daytime
This was the third mix I recorded in a series of “Sunday Sessions” during the darkest months of the pandemic. This one is mainly a mix of soul, hip hop and electro.
The Onyx Space
NOTES:
Mood: Dark, Ambient, Downtempo
Best for: Evenings
There used to be a beautiful bar in the basement of Blakes, a boutique hotel in South Kensington and it reminded me of an old black lacquered Chinese jewellery box belonging to my mother.The space had a minimalist oriental vibe and was very dark with hints of gold. I was in talks with the manager about playing there for a while. It never happened in the end but this mix was very much inspired by and designed for that space.
