Post corona it feels like dancefloors are operating on a different kind of energy. The longing for elation and euphoria are center-stage again. Nostalgia and clinging to the sounds of yesteryear are probably part of the post-corona zeitgeist. Time to through the bludgeon into the dog kennel.

Coming in the club on Saturday afternoon, I was not really expecting anything. But as soon as I entered the door to the floor I could sense the energy and noticed that thanks to the DJ before me the floor was warmed up like a hot chocolate bun. This is great, as I would consider myself to be a diesel engine kind of DJ.

From the very first record on I felt completely at ease. Not the kind of tension that comes with serve-and-deliver sets, more like the happy kind of mood when unpacking presents.

What follows in the next four hours or so is some of my favourite music from some of my favourite artists, past and present. I tried to connect some dots of 40 years of dance music without making it sound like a history lesson. There are definitlely the nods to the (queer) pioneers but also the newer generation of artists that deserve the spotlight.

So here it is. I hope you take some of that energy with you and spread it.

Much Love

Enzio Etchaberri

p.s.

For every track I tried to come up with a liner note. I miss the days of having a physical record in my hands and being able to write little notes on them. In this form I like to share them with you again and try to give back and credit where the credit is due; the artists and labels that put out all this love for you to enjoy.
