I was happy to put together this mix for esteemed Naarm, Melbourne based DJ James Steer. Our connection was forged through the love of similar tastes through Soundcloud. For this mix the idea was to imagine playing to the tail end of an all nighter - last set of the night or morning when people are winding down. I included a bunch of records I have been slowly collecting together to record a deeper mix like this. The selection includes some old favourites by Photek, The Connection Machine, Echospace and Basic Channel, some top shelf recent releases from friends - Albert Chiovenda, Neotex and Simon Mann and a new one by Berlin based artist Insomanist from the First Light EP that was released this week on Delphic Iris Records.

For the second instalment of our somewhat irregular mix series, co-owners Drox and 16faces team up for a rare IRL session—recorded while crossing paths in Sydney over the Aussie summer break.
One of my fav parties so far this year!! Recorded live on January 1st, 2025 at The Lord Gladstone, Sydney Part of Got Music's : Mercury Strut NYD party. This b2b mix unfolds in 30-minute chunks, blending deep, rounded grooves, otherworldly synths, and lush sunny textures—including a few rare vinyl gems to kick off the year. Drox delivers choice house and Detroit deep cuts, while 16 Faces leans into UK garage, bass, and grimey-tinged flavours. A soulful, summery ride with just the right amount of grit. It’s a shift from our usual darker, more pensive sound—but a perfectly timed to the Euro summer on the horizon. Hope you enjoy the selections.

Drox's music can be described as heavily influenced by electro and indeed, electro past and present in all it's forms is one of his primary inspirations. But that is only one part of the picture. Techno, house, dub, ambient, experimental and all manor of deep experimental music are integral to his sound, and it's not easy to file him under any one genre or any one style or mode of production.
