Another SonicSunset.com journey…

Setting s a long launch pad through the dark and cosmic, then wringing out some longer and deeper house tracks. More new records this time out, including standouts from Oracy and a pair of Japanese artists really bringing it- alongside NY house moods and Detroit basement tracks.

I just launched a new mix on SonicSunset.com

A 2.5 hour extended trip through soul in different dance styles. From chill Detroit nighttime transitions to synthy boogie, house, and some abstract dub electronics. Don’t miss your medication from Talking Heads, and Deadbeat’s searing remix of Saul Williams for the closer.

The site of mixes over at DeepSoul3.com have always been a great source of music. Chris Edwards & Matt Mollicone have curated some incredible sets on there of cross-genre, balearic and cosmic disco styles.. open minds and deep crates, ripping up boundaries and laying down moods.

They ask me for a mix almost a year ago, and I finally put something together I felt was unique enough for their website. A decidedly mixtempo mix of boogie, electronics and unique soul, 100% vinyl. Hope you enjoy.

Download it from their Guest Mixes page.

Alternate soundtrack to a 1983 film about a spaceman stranded in Harlem, expressed with soul, electronic funk & boogie - winds up with a few beautifully synthesized italo disco anthems from the same era.
