Spotlight

It’s good to be kind and recognise those who are quietly doing great things. So this Spotlight shines the light on a few of those lovely people who we are proud to call our friends…

I have never ordered anything for myself from DNR Vinyl, yet I have spent a lot at this store and I’ve received nothing but quality and kindness. I really respect and admire DNR because it's just a whole lot of genuine love for music in one spot. The home for underground vinyl lovers run by a true connoisseur. A few gems currently in stock include the exclusive ‘DnR Allstars Vol 1’ with a great gnarly piece from El-B, ‘Waiting 4x4 EP - Genius Cru’ which is one of my all-time favourite tracks, and my wonderful friend’s release ‘Iree / Global Killer - D-Mize’.

We welcome Shadowhearts Recordings from parent-label Slime Recordings. This new project focusses on DnB, where we can expect “the finest liquid beats and melodic sounds”. The Slime identity is ever-increasing its reputation of quality and skilful craft. Every single element of the brand, the releases, the administration… is a work of art, thoroughly thought out and beautifully expressed. So, even with just the snippet of knowing that Australian producer Drop Frame will be the first artist on Shadowhearts, is enough for everyone to know that it will be something pretty notable.

Trance artist Daniel Wanrooy is living his best life (okay, that was cheesy). He’ll be back in Helsinki in October warming up for Ferry Corsten at The Circus, he’s been chosen in Trance Podium’s top 100 DJs for 2019, and his latest edgy track ‘Insight’ is killing it on the FSOE Parallels imprint.

One-man band Danny Blaze is forever busy these days. He’s one of those who has been in the game for a long time, mainly working with House & UKG, and has worked hard to climb the music ladder. It’s so great to see him finally getting the recognition he deserves and enjoying so many exciting opportunities. You can catch his show every Monday 2pm on Flex FM 101.4FM, find him playing at his ‘National Anthems’ events
