I was asked by Italian DJ / producer GLEDD (also record label boss) to make a mix for his label’s series. If you’re not familiar, do yourself a favor and check out the Saint Wax catalogue- lots of dancefloor gems and heaters! My mix is 70mins, leaning heavily into Afro, Disco, & House, with some Latin and a bit of other trippy Psychedelic sounds blended in as well. Also a couple unreleased edits of mine in here. Enjoy the trip!
It’s been a long running tradition of mine to make a mix during the dog days of Summer. Something about these hot slow moving lazy weeks, mixed with the saudade of how fast it all passed by, make me feel really reflective & nostalgic. Hope these tunes help capture that mood for you too. 60mins of super eclectic global soul- Brazilian boogie, Balearic, Afrobeats, Afro House, Latin House, Disco and intercontinental vibes.

The idea of a late-summer mix built around reflection gives the track selection a purpose beyond genre tags. Afrohouse, disco, and house can all carry warmth and movement, while still leaving room for the slower, nostalgic feeling described here. A mix works particularly well for that transition because its sequencing can let the mood shift gradually instead of demanding one fixed emotional note. That sense of pacing is what can make a seasonal listen feel cohesive.
I’m back once again with another 60 mins of super eclectic dance sounds from all around the globe. In case you didn’t already know- Mixtape Riot stands in total defiance of all things algorithm, seamlessly blending selections that would rarely find themselves back-to-back in a playlist elsewhere, creating a virtual sonic journey like cassette tape mixes from yesteryear. It’s about personality, soul, and making connections where you often least expect them. From Euro balearic reggae, to funky Brazilian soul, to Colombian Afro electronic, to Middle Eastern & West African disco, to house bangers & Amapiano & beyond… It’s all in the mix! Grease up them hip joints and open your mind to the intercontinental boogie.

A 70-minute mix gives the sequence enough room to develop instead of treating genre changes as quick highlights. The combination of Afro, disco, house, Latin elements, and psychedelic touches sounds especially suited to a label series: it can show a selector’s range while still keeping a dancefloor focus. I’d be curious how you approached the transitions between the more percussive passages and the trippier material, since that pacing is often what makes a long-form mix feel cohesive.

A 70-minute blend built around Afro, disco, and house leaves room for the transitions to become part of the story rather than just links between tracks. The Latin and psychedelic elements sound like a useful way to introduce contrast without abandoning the dancefloor focus. The connection to Saint Wax’s catalog also gives listeners a clear path for exploring the label’s wider sound after the mix. It will be interesting to hear how the energy develops across the full runtime.
