Mad heat on the ones and twos

Summer marches on, the weather traverses its usual peaks and troughs, and the parties keep coming. Whether it’s taps aff saluting the sun or hunched in a basement ignoring electrical storms, we keep dancing.

This week we bring you five more mixes to keep those outside concerns where they belong.

01

Laurel Halo

DISCWOMAN 27

A skittish and heavily melodic affair with shades of electro, piano house, batida and grime. Out just weeks after her album Dust dropped, it shows Halo clearly enjoying herself.

02

Athene

SIREN MIX 001

The first mix on SIREN’s new series is from one third of the crew behind the label brokntoys. Athene here moves in unsettling breakbeats through wonky techno cuts to moody electro, encapsulating the vibe of the label’s releases nicely.

03

Bandshell

LYL 15 July

Hessle/FTD weirdo Bandshell plays Outkast, DJ Stingray, King Tubby on Lyonnaise internet radio.

04

Elena Colombi

NTS 17 July

The wiggiest of Monday mixes from one of the most in-demand in London right now. Interspersed with vocal snippets of people fleeing in terror.

05

DJ Persuasion

Air Mix 010

Tape-Echo affiliate DJ Persuasion puts together this “exploration in to the roots of rave and hardcore.” High-grade bleeps, breaks and stabs.
