Headspace, the fourth instalment of the moodboard mix series, is out now. I made this one a few months ago whilst feeling pretty overwhelmed by life, so it felt right putting it out now amidst these uncertain times. Featuring beats from Invadhertz, Pola & Bryson, Hugh Hardie & Etherwood, this mix is for those days where you just want to slow down and unplug - a sonic exploration into refuge, mindfulness and escapism.

Headspace is the fourth instalment of the moodboard mix series I started a few years ago. Following previous themed mixes of Hurt, Soaring and Sun-kissed, Headspace is an attempt to capture mindfulnes

(((Day))) is out now ☀️ 80 minutes of sunshine sonics tailored towards the kind of set you’d expect from me during the daytime - my favourite kind of set. Featuring obscure and well known tunes from the likes of Phaction, Athena & Break, this set starts soulfully, plays around with some bouncy breaks, and then later finds pace in a rolling liquid sound. Perfect for kicking off pre’s, your festival roadie, or your summers day sips. Had so much fun putting this one together, link below!

Hey, been a minute! Back with a double header for your Monday: This Friday McCann and I take on Pointers alongside a local lineup for a heavy shift and we couldn’t be more keen after separation anxiety from one another behind the decks 🥰 The sets will be judged and the winner gets a headline show at Pointers as well as an international main support slot! Come support us

It gets a hell of a lot better though - so stoked to announce that we’re also on the bill for one of my idols in the liquid game, BCee! The bossman of Spearhead Records and a DJ that has provided tune after tune for years on end - such a privilege to be passing the decks to him! For those of you heading to Plane Sailing - here’s your after party covered ☀️✈️

see you Friday and see you Jan 6th ☀️ huge ups SUB180

Sun-kissed: The third instalment of my liquid mood mix series. Red Light may have signalled the end of Summer as we know it, but let’s not forget the feeling so quickly. Featuring 61 tunes from 37 different artists, 80 minutes of soulful sunshine vibes. Built for beach trips, day sips and summer antics. Liquid, breaks and a couple new bootlegs of my own - hopefully a ton of stuff you’re unfamiliar with. Loved making this one, feedback always welcome ❤️ sam x

24/01/2022

Hey all, been a while! Was really looking forward to finally playing out a number of gigs in coming weeks but Red Light seems to have chucked them on hold for now. However, it would be selfish of me to moan when there are people out there that rely on the events industry as a sole source of income - sending love to all of you.
Put together the third instalment of my liquid mood mix series, this time the theme is ‘sun-kissed’. Some cheerful, soulful tunes reminiscing moments in the sun that hopefully lift the mood: a mix of liquid, breaks & a few bootlegs of my own. Drops 6pm tomorrow. Peace x

Just finished up my favourite stream yet, heaps of beautiful tunes flowing out over 90 minutes. So you can imagine my joy when I realised I may or may not have selected the wrong audio output 🥲 high IQ moment 😎 apologies for no sound, thankfully i managed to press record after 2 mins or so and that’s now up on my Soundcloud! Link below. Otherwise, enjoy 90 minutes of me making bizarre hand movements in silence 😅

Recorded 31/10/21 for Sunday Livestream - Rolling liquid, deep subs and work from the likes of GLXY, Henry, In:Most & Soul:Motion

10/10/2021

As this lockdown drags on and on, these Sunday sessions have actually been a really good outlet for me to escape for an hour or so amongst the madness. I chucked the idea of a stream out there not really caring whether i get 1 view or 1000 views, so it’s amazing seeing so many people interacting with the polls on Instagram and then tuning in on here! Todays stream of feel good liquid is in two pieces thanks to copyright, managed to slide a new bootleg of mine in at the end, cc: loyle carner 🤞🏼 thanks as always! Sam
