Favorite Mixes of 2023

New year new thread, back to the American spelling so I can find it. :)

Kicking things off with Ariel Zetina, both emotional AND full of bangers:

Francesco del Garda at the helm, from last year but only just heard

The weekly radio Mumdance shows have been a real highlight of the last few months for me (they're all great):

Same!! I've also been really enjoying hanging out in the discord on Wednesdays (first time I've ever enjoyed doing anything on discord), although I haven't been able to catch the last couple weeks live.

Sadly haven't managed to catch any of them live but it looks fun, hopefully it will line up at some point... First Patreon mix was great too.

Enjoying this Laurel Halo set

Also recorded at Nowadays, I had this Beta Librae set in constant rotation for a while.

Yeah likewise on the Beta Librae. About to listen to the Laurel Halo, thanks for the link (I thought I followed her on soundcloud but evidently not).

Eats Everything did last night's R1 Essential Mix and it is completely and utterly fantastic:

The Essential Mix has always been the pinnacle of mix series to me. I’m lucky to have done a fair few, but tonight is only my second studio one, and my very first History Of Rave Essential Mix!

I wanted to really go in & take a 2hr snapshot on a History of Rave. Now don’t expect 2hrs of rave bangers and nostalgia tracks, this is multi-genre, multi-tempo, multi-decade spanning. Stuff from old to new, crossing the entire “rave” spectrum. There are some exclusives, pretty much every track is an edit/Reebeef & not every tune is a classic, I hope that you don’t know a fair few of them!

Icing on the cake is some cameos from some very famous voices from the world of dance music. This is the best mix I have ever put together by a country mile. Sit back, drop your trousers, and listen with an open mind to 2hrs of belters tonight on Radio 1.

these brazilian djs speak to my heart. if i heard this stuff in a club i might just explode with joy. when Peroli drops "perfect" in i want to die. i need to own that song in every version available.

I kind of love how we've just committed to the 2023 thread we are ...
