AT HOME WITH LWE: 4TH SEPTEMBER

Kick-start your weekend with our feel-good Friday selection of disco, funk and house. Featured in today’s blog are DJ Holographic, Channel Tres, Laurence Guy, D. Tiffany & Jayda G, Hot Since 82 and more.

DJ Holographic - RA Mix

With the legendary Detroit marathon set from J2v still getting a constant rerun here at the office, we’re thrilled to see some fresh new grooves from DJ Holographic. A high octane sonic voyage through cosmic funk and slapping house.

Channel Tres - TGIF Mix

One of the biggest acts to blossom out of the West Coast in recent years, Channel Tres continues to impress with his unique blend of hip-hop, R&B and funk laced soulful house. This mix for TGIF is a definite party starter.

Laurence Guy - Your Good Times Will Come

Afterhours, euphoric, lofi house connoisseur, Laurence Guy, recently came in with a strong late contender for one of the EP’s of the summer. Patented with trademark sun-kissed chords and lush dreamy pads, the buoyant lead single provides a perfect reminder of the good times still to come.

D.Tiffany - Spirit Alien (Jayda G Esoteric Mix)

One of our favourite remixes of 2018, D.Tiffany’s rave infused basement hit, Spirit Alien, received the Jayda G flip for an instant classic. A thumping late night gallop through an airy haze of intimate melancholy.

Hot Since 82 - Live At Magazine London

What seems like a lifetime away now, back in February we launched Sphere, a unique 5 part concept series at the brand new Magazine London. Although the series was cut short due to the lockdown, we still cherish the incredible memories created at the purpose-built Greenwich space. So, to get you boogying into the weekend, we leave you with a set from the tech funkmaster himself, Hot Since 82, recorded live at the Sphere launch party.
