Just The Music Please

Dr. Kyky

Welcome to my home of audio-only versions of amazing dance music sets and compilations. Lots of these are published to YouTube only, which can be inconvenient for listening, and often the video doesn't add much. Get back to the basics with only what you need. No ads, no talking, just great music.

Above & Beyond @ Group Therapy 700 (2026)
Well, Group Therapy 700 (two weekends ago) was definitely one for the record books! In the midst of weeks of beautiful September weather, the skies decided to open up at 8:30 pm on Saturday night, unleashing enough rain and fierce winds to pause the show. The lower bowl at The Gorge had to be evacuated, the entire show was paused, and we lost at least 2 1/2 hours of music from Oliver Smith, J Ribbon, and Ilan Bluestone. However, I'm not here to talk about that. I'm not even here to talk about Above & Beyond's main set (which was terrific, as usual). I'm actually here this week to present their deep set, which really kicked off the weekend's festivities. Unlike previous years, where the deep set is pre-recorded (usually on a boat) a few days before the weekend, this one was live, kicking off the livestream at 7:00 pm on Friday. Also unlike years past, this one was 90 minutes, rather than the usual hour. Tony, Paavo, and Jono each took turns manning the decks for 30 minutes, playing loads of new music and really setting high expectations for the remainder of the weekend. A friend described the set as "PROFF-coded", which I think is an apt description. Another description would be: it's just really good. It's definitely the best deep set (to open a live Group Therapy show) they've ever played. 1. Above & Beyond - Eclipse 2. Above & Beyond - Tri-state (Yuvèe Remix) 3. Jamie Stevens & Fixation - Time Falls Away 4. Above & Beyond - Good For Me (Volen Sentir Remix) 5. Above & Beyond - We Are All We Need (Jody Wisternoff & Jamie McDermott Remix) 6. Planet Of Souls & Lily Papas - One (PROFF Reshuffle) 7. Volen Sentir - Vera 8. Above & Beyond - Prelude (PROFF Remix) 9. PROFF & Tony McGuinness - Bolero 10. Above & Beyond - The Cove 11.

Grum @ Group Therapy 300 (2018)
In honor of Group Therapy 700 happening next weekend — we'll be there! — I'd like to post a deep cut from the archives this week. The first Group Therapy show I ever went to was 300 (in Hong Kong) and Grum was one of the artists on the lineup I was really looking forward to. He's one of my favorite progressive producers and his set that night was right on the money; I can still remember being in the center front of the crowd and feeling the bass reverberate through my chest while he took all of us on a 1-hour voyage into space. Sadly, this set and Grum's album Deep State were caught in the crossfire of a legal battle between Anjunabeats and Chris Sevier, a lawyer-turned-musician who had recorded vocals on a few Grum tracks and co-wrote some music. I don't want to give a lot of oxygen to this, so let's just say that it became known to people that Chris was a fringe, far-right nut, with some extreme and bigoted views that do not gel with the dance music community, which is known to be welcoming and inclusive. He and the label parted ways, but this caused a number of Grum tracks to become embroiled in legal issues. The YouTube set was taken down and Deep State had to be delayed and reworked before it could be released, which didn't happen until the following year. With all that nastiness out of the way, I will say that this is an excellent 1-hour Grum primer. It's not my favorite set of his (see Episode 004 for that), but if I had only 60 minutes to sell someone on Grum, I would play them this. I think the real treat here is that it lives in Anjuna lore as the only Group Therapy set that's ever been taken down (to my knowledge). Well, the other treat is the final song ("Hiding Place") which is honestly my favorite Grum track ever... but it'll never see the light of day, so you'll have to enjoy it here! I will dutifully post a YouTube link at the bottom like I always do, but since it's a random re-upload from a fan, there's no guarantee it'll keep working in the future. I actually have the entire set in video form (recorded from the live stream), so if you ever want it, have your people talk to my people and we'll make it happen! 1. Grum - The Pledge 2. Grum - U 3. Grum - Price Of Love 4. Grum - Lose Control 5. Grum - We Are One 6. Grum - Genesis 7. Grum - Shout 8. Grum - The Ascent 9. Grum - Altered State 10. Grum - Deep State 11. Grum & Waves_On_Waves - Never Have To Be Alone 12. Grum - Hiding Place Original post: https://youtu.be/7mlnYCO3VSc?si=90NC1OjlhcTjwRo_

Arodes @ Nómadas Festival (2025)
This week we're heading to a rock quarry in northern Portugal for two hours of big room melodic house from Arodes, a Spanish DJ and producer who's mostly new to me, but has been on the rise recently. In the last few years, he's played Tomorrowland, Coachella, Burning Man, and ADE, on top of residencies in Mykonos and Ibiza. Nómadas Festival takes place at Pedreira do Monte Castro, a quarry just outside Braga. It was started to give Portugal an event built around Afro and melodic sound, so Arodes was a perfect billing. His set is mostly his own tracks, remixes, collaborations, and mashups; it's filled with great Keinemusik vibes and fun emotional drops. 1. Arodes & Mahmut Orhan & Jamek Ortega - Gaia 2. Tiago Cruz & Sollu & Bēni - Just Another Dream 3. Arodes & Misha & Amikam - Solta Mulher 4. Florist (BE) & Deco (BE) - SHHH 5. The Weeknd & Playboi Carti - Timeless (Arodes Remix) 6. Luch - ID 7.

Claptone @ Chinois Ibiza (2026)
As promised at the end of my last episode, the Kyky's did indeed have a blast in Ibiza and Albania last month, and JTMP was indeed on a hiatus, though for much longer than I would like. Appropriately though, we're back with music from one of the highlights of our trip: Claptone at Chinois! Claptone has been a fixture in the house scene for many years. His music is always fun and driving and a party, oscillating among melodic and quasi-retro and just plain "thonky". That said, he's probably best known for his caricature of an image: all black clothes, white gloves, a top hat, and a golden plague doctor mask. A few years ago, we attended his live Q&A session during ADE, and he remained fully in character the entire time. He masks his voice when recording his radio show and used this same voice modulator during the interview; it was surreal and actually pretty funny to hear his serious answers about music in the voice of a kidnapper making demands on the phone. There's also a "conspiracy theory" that Claptone is actually multiple people (namely, multiple white guys with beards with similar body types). Based on a cursory "enhance" of Internet photos and the fact that he has tour dates across the world in a way that would seem to defy the laws of physics, maybe there's some truth to this? These days, Claptone is known for his Masquerade party, and the one we attended at Chinois had all the trappings: fun decorations, dancers in elaborate costumes, (fake) candles, and even an aerial dancer who went above the crowd on silks. My memory of that evening was that of a very fun and engaged crowd — and we had a blast with all our friends! — but the crowd in this YouTube video is definitely underwhelming, though I guess the video is useful for seeing what the space looks like. My advice: listen to just the audio here, then go to Ibiza and see him in person! 1a. Powers That Be - Planet Rock (Acappella) 1b. The Mekanism - Do The Disco 2. CASSIMM & Allan Nunez - Puxa 3.

LP Giobbi @ Coachella (2026)
LP Giobbi has been making a name for herself more and more in recent years, from jazz-influenced dance music to her remixes and after parties for The Grateful Dead (yes, for real!) to her own brand of fun piano house music. She is a classically trained jazz pianist and studied classical piano at UC Berkeley, and this musicality is very evident in her music. Moreover, she has been doing important work with Femme House, a non-profit she co-founded which provides education and opportunities for women, minorities, and LGBT folks in the music industry. Beyond the education and fund-raising, Femme House also has a weekly radio show with guest mixes and interviews. At this year's Coachella, she played the Weekend 2 sunset slot on the Quasar stage. The video is honestly not that great, especially by Coachella's standards: it's mostly just close-ups of her, dancing and smiling and putting on a pretty stanky bass-face. (Shots of the crowd or the sunset are few and far between.) Ignoring that, her set is fire: some IDs, some older deep cuts, and everything flows seamlessly. Is this "femme house"? I'm probably not qualified to say definitively, but it sure is fun! JTMP Industries will be going on hiatus for the month of June, as the Kyky's will be traveling to Europe to go to Ibiza and Anjunadeep Explorations this year. Wish us luck! And enjoy this episode until we get back. 1. LP Giobbi - ID 2. Edward's World - Soul Roots (Piano House Mix) 3. Funk D'Void - Diabla 4. LP Giobbi - All In A Dream 5. LP Giobbi - You Are 6.

David Hohme @ Burning Man (Bubbles & Bass) (2025)
Firstly, many apologies for the lack of content so far this year! Even though we haven't been traveling, somehow this spring has felt busy, for side projects at least. I'm hoping to pick up the pace soon and get back to my usual cadence. I realized recently that I haven't done a David Hohme episode yet, so I'd like to remedy that this week. David is an absolute master of melodic deep house and I've been a fan for many years. He also has a prominent place in Dr. Kyky lore: Mrs. Kyky and I saw David on our first date (true story!). This set is from last year's Burning Man, which David usually attends as part of the Bubbles & Bass camp. It has his customary fun and joyful sound, and even though it's filmed in the desert, it absolutely sounds like a pool party. Put on your bathing suit, crack open a cold one, and enjoy! 1.

Eric Prydz - EPIC Radio #025 (2026)
Hi kids! Do you know what the word of the day is? Well I'm going to tell you: today's word is "shamelessly". As in: I will be shamelessly reposting someone else's podcast episode today. But not just anyone! The maestro of dark, driving progressive house himself: Eric Prydz. After an 8+ year hiatus, Eric has suddenly resurrected his podcast, EPIC Radio. I have fond memories of being in coworking spaces in Asia, pecking away on my laptop, listening to his radio show. Much more so than other producers, Eric would fill his show with deep cuts, unreleased tracks, and works in progress. It was always a fun and interesting listen, so I was disappointed when the podcast quietly stopped getting updates. But the man has clearly gotten a second wind and it sounds like he'll be posting new shows regularly this year. Normally I wouldn't blindly repost another show's episode, but this feels like a momentous occasion worth celebrating and highlighting. I encourage all of you to subscribe to his show! Based on his commentary, it sounds like he'll be releasing a lot of new music this year too. In true Eric Prydz fashion, literally every song in this episode is unreleased and/or unnamed. I present to you the most worthless tracklist ever: 1. ID - ID 2. ID - ID 3. ID - ID 4. ID - ID 5. ID - ID 6. ID - ID 7. ID - ID 8. ID - ID 9. ID - ID 10. ID - ID 11. ID - ID 12.

Gregory Esayan - Pilgrim's Diary (2016)
Happy new year! Just like everyone else, JTMP Industries is back in the office after an extended holiday break. Cheers to another year of excellent dance music! To kick things off in 2026, I've reached into the archives for a bit of a deep cut: Pilgrim's Diary, the second album by Gregory Esayan. Gregory is a Russian producer who has released on Monstercat (formerly Silk) for many years and very much embodies the label. That said, this LP adds an extra wrinkle to the usual "hopeful melodic" sound that Monstercat is famous for. While the album is indeed melodic and proggy, it's also spacey, dreamy, druggy, and even slightly new age. I'm not sure if this is even a real genre, but "psychedelic progressive house" seems like the perfect description. It's a real "Lucy meets Molly" vibe, if you catch my drift. "Taxi" — the exact middle of the album — is the beautiful, dreamy gem here. Turn the lights down, put on a good pair of headphones, maybe pop a gummy or two, and really sink into this journey. 1. Gregory Esayan - Healer 2. Gregory Esayan - Numb Capsule 3. Gregory Esayan - Healer 4. Gregory Esayan - Game of Hearts 5. Gregory Esayan - Coastal Glow 6. Gregory Esayan - Taxi 7.

Anjunabeats - Cream Ibiza Sunrise (2011)
Cream Ibiza Sunrise is a bit of a deep cut and maybe only marginally noteworthy (more on that later) but holds a funny, sentimental place for me. Starting in 2013, I left home and backpacked for the better part of two years, taking photos of my travels and writing a blog about my adventures. Especially in the first year, I would periodically sit in a cafe with my laptop, editing photos, writing, and listening to music. I usually listened to that week's Group Therapy Radio, but also this album, which I somehow discovered during that time. This (mixed) Anjunabeats compilation was made for Mixmag in 2011 and came out about a month after Group Therapy (the album) was released. Sitting at 75 minutes long, it fits nicely on a CD, which was probably not an accident. It has a few big tracks, but a lot from the back catalog too. The club mix of Sun & Moon appears here, probably for the first time (or one of the first times) ever, since the album had come out only a month before. In classic Above & Beyond fashion, the track appears at roughly the three-quarters mark, which would become the tried-and-true formula for their live shows too. On this album though, I think Sun & Moon is eclipsed (see what I did there?) by "Rebound" (by Arty & Mat Zo), appropriately played at the very end. Even if you're an Anjuna fan, you've probably never heard of most of these tracks. Still, it's a fun listen as a time capsule: it captures a very specific Anjunabeats sound from the days before Group Therapy. It's not better or worse than the music of the last decade, just different. For me, listening to this album brings back memories of sipping a coffee and pecking away on a clunky Dell laptop somewhere in Southeast Asia. 1. Hybrid - Original Sin (Myon & Shane 54 Orchipella) 2.

Hot Since 82 @ A Pirate Ship In Ibiza (2025)
Just in time before the clocks turn back and the days get shorter, here comes one last gasp of summer: the latest chapter in the "live on a pirate ship" series from Hot Since 82. Fittingly, we are getting on a flight today to the Mediterranean — instead of Ibiza, we'll be heading to Malta for the 4-day Anjunadeep festival — so this set has been in heavy rotation lately to get me in the right mood. To be fair, this video is actually super fun and entertaining (just like all the other pirate ship videos), so I highly recommend you put it on at some point. But the set itself is also phenomenal and deserves recognition. It's groovy, melodic, smooth, catchy... pretty much a perfect 2-hour Ibiza mix from start to finish.

Eli & Fur BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix (2024)
Seeing as how we've just seen the very talented duo Eli & Fur twice in the span of a week, it's basically a no-brainer to highlight them on this edition of the podcast. They're currently traveling up and down the west coast for their "Dreams at Dusk" tour, where they're playing two-hour sets at twilight, and then again (in select cities) playing later in the night for some peak time energy. We saw them first in Portland for a lovely and chill Sunday day party at White Owl Social Club and then again the following Friday in San Francisco for a wild, energetic show at Audio. This mix showcases their sound really well: melodic, dancy, sometimes a little haunting, but always musically interesting with a tasteful amount of vocals. There's even a surprise Beatles remix that I had completely forgotten about and it delighted me again when I re-listened to the set this past week. This 2-hour journey is a little softer than their club appearances, but that's also what makes it a great listen. The broadcast is no longer available through the official BBC iPlayer and the only official posting I could find is a YouTube upload with a janky video: literally a camera pointed out a hotel window (presumably in Los Angeles). In other words, this was tailor made for the podcast. Enjoy! 1. Joep Mencke & Ben Juno - Rain 2. Eli & Fur - Hello Echo (DAVI Remix) 3. Elderbrook & George Fitzgerald - Glad I Found You (Club Mix) 4.

Fahlberg @ Green Valley Brazil (2025)
Fahlberg is a name that I've been noticing more and more in the past couple of years and it seems like maybe now he's finally breaking through a bit. Case in point: this set that 1001Tracklists posted a few weeks ago from a warm-up party for Tomorrowland Brazil. The genre is hard to nail down here; if pressed, I would have to call it something like "melodic deep progressive house". Fahlberg is from Sweden, so I've seen the term "Nordic Melodic" thrown around recently, which strikes me as more of a dance music inside joke than an actual genre. That said, he does sound like fellow Swede Jeremy Olander, though I would call Fahlberg's style a tad softer. This set seems to be tailor-made for the podcast because the video adds almost nothing here: the shots of the crowd are kind of boring and the video is mostly just Fahlberg lightly bopping around behind the decks. The set, however, is a wonderful 90-minute "night driving" soundtrack, so do yourself a favor and play this in the car the next time you're hitting the road for a long evening drive. 1.

Above & Beyond @ Coachella (2025)
Yesterday, Above & Beyond released their first new album (of dance music) in 7 years, so to honor that, let's revisit their set from Coachella this year. It's fairly brief compared to their usual shows since Coachella time slots are usually 50 minutes or so, but it's still a notable performance for a couple of reasons: they hadn't been to the desert in a very long time (17 years!) and about half of this set was new music. Given the short duration of the show (and the mix of old and new songs), this set can serve as a nice primer for A&B newcomers. And since the best four songs from the album make an appearance here, this set is also a great "Bigger Than All Of Us" mini-mix. No matter if you're a new listener or a long-time fan, this set packs a really nice punch in a short amount of time. 1. Above & Beyond - Stepping In 2. Above & Beyond - Start A Fire 3.

Marsh @ Anjunadeep Explorations (2024)
In honor of Anjunadeep Explorations (happening right now in Dhermi, Albania!), and because we just saw him two weeks ago at Anjunadeep Open Air LA, ...and... because Anjunadeep just released this set last week, it seems only appropriate to post Marsh's set from last year's Explorations festival. This 3-hour gem is what he played at Empire (the main stage) from 3:00 am to 6:00 am; it's exactly what you want from a Marsh set — very melodic, occasionally bangin', and very classy — with a special treat for the last hour... Now, for those of you who saw Marsh at Explorations in 2023, hearing "the last hour is a surprise!" might trigger some PTSD: that year, Marsh played drum and bass for the last hour, which was — hmm, how do I put this politely? — highly polarizing, to say the least. However, I can confidently say that any fan of dance music will enjoy the twist here and really appreciate the final act of this set. Enjoy! 1. Marsh - Endless (Dave DK Ambient Mix) 2. Marsh - White Lie (Pneuma) 3. Marsh - Floodlights 4. Marsh - Everything 5. Simon Doty & Marsh - Touch The Sky 6. Marsh - Veil 7. Marsh - New Lines 8. Marsh - Hope 9.

Deep Dish @ The Concourse Project (2025)
Deep Dish is back! The duo — consisting of Iranian-American artists Dubfire and DJ Sharam — was influential in the 90s and early 2000s with their album Junk Science and a long streak of remixes. They had their biggest hit in 2006 with "Say Hello" and recorded a BBC Essential Mix in 2014, but have been relatively quiet since. This year, they've suddenly resurfaced, with a new single and a calendar of tour dates. This 3-hour set is pulled from their appearance at The Concourse Project in Austin back in January. Their sound here is hard to summarize concisely: some melodic techno, some minimal deep house, some hip-hop vocals, some hypnotic grooves. Similar to a Guy J set, the beat never stops, and it's a steady, groovy train ride the entire time. Fire this up while you're deep in work or on a night drive and you won't be disappointed! 1. Tom Baker - Natural Intelligence (Electrypnose Remix) 2. Buogo - African Path 3. Kasango & Chris Arna & Voodoochild - Like That 4. Marc DePulse - Raufaser 5. MUUI - Outside Your Body (Dmitry Molosh Remix) 6. Harry Holtz - Fire (ID remix) 7. Ramden - Mysterious Time 8. Spencer Brown - Offsides 9. Deep Dish - Flashdance (Deep Dish Does the Chug Remix) 10.

Keinemusik @ Coachella (2025)
Keinemusik — a deep house collective/label out of Germany — is having a moment. Much like their music, their rise in recent years has been gentle and steady, and the world has taken notice. Comprised of Adam Port, &ME, Rampa, and Reznik, their gigs — especially those that end up on YouTube — are usually helmed by the three former, though any permutation of the crew might show up. Online their sound is labelled as melodic deep house or Afro house, though I'd describe it as "organic house meets world music". However you want to label it, it's always smooth, consistent, accessible, and fun, with plenty of kerchiefs and oversized t-shirts, since I guess this is the look now. In recognition of their current impact and importance, Coachella granted the boys an amazing primetime slot: closing out Saturday night in Sahara, the huge hangar that hosts the largest dance music acts. We were there in person and can attest that the vibes were immaculate for the entire hour and a half. It was full without being overly crowded, and everyone in attendance was really into the music. 1. Rex The Dog - Not Going Home (Rampa Remix) 2. Moderat - More Love (&ME & Rampa Remix) 3. TeeJay - Drift (Vidojean & Oliver Loenn Remix) 4. SiiNA & Cem Seckin - Blessed 5. Aero Manyelo - Kunitamale (Mont Rouge Remix) 6. Adam Port & Stryv - Move 7. Justice - Neverender (Rampa Remix) 8.

Eric Prydz @ Tomorrowland (2018)
After a (not so) brief hiatus, we're back! Now that spring — and the start of festival season — is upon us, it feels appropriate to pick up where we left off. Last week, a few friends went to Dreamstate San Francisco (actual location: Daly City) and the Friday headliner is the inspiration for today's episode. Back before HOLO became an international sensation, Eric Prydz was just a lowly progressive house DJ, quietly establishing himself as a true master of dark and hypnotic melody. Even though he's most known for "Call On Me", that track sounds nothing like the rest of his catalog; fans who go to one of his shows expecting that kind of sound from will be sorely disappointed. His productions and live sets are a masterclass in melodic subtlety, but he can still bring the hammer down just as effectively. When that incredibly iconic snare first starts to hit, you know you're in for a wild ride. This 2018 set from Tomorrowland includes all the classic Eric Prydz elements, plus a rather large number of unreleased tracks, works in progress, and bootlegs (see the track listing below). It has a slow, tantalizing build for the first 40 minutes, in a very linear way that only he can pull off. Once you're at the top of the climb though, it's a fantastic plateau all the way until the end. The video is really well done and the show had a ton of amazing visuals, so I highly recommend actually watching the video at some point. But you know, sometimes you just want the music (please). 1. Cirez D - Echostage NYE ID 01 (Working Title) 2. Pryda - EDC Mexico 2018 ID (Working Title) 3. Pryda - Tomorrowland 2018 ID 01 (Working Title) 4. Pryda - Euro T 5. Cirez D - Envelopes 6.

Above & Beyond @ Group Therapy 001 (2012)
In honor of our trip to Mexico City next week for Group Therapy 600, this week's post cannot be anything other than one of my favorite sets of all time: Above & Beyond's very first Group Therapy radio, recorded at their show in Bangalore, India. This was perhaps the biggest mile marker of their career: they shed their "Trance Around The World" branding — which they had used for 9 years — for a new name and visual style, derived from their 2011 "Group Therapy" album. That album is undoubtedly the most important and influential of their career, making this pivot even more significant. On a personal note, I didn't really get into Group Therapy until the latter half of 2013, so I was about a year late to this set. I was traveling Southeast Asia as part of my career break "sabbatical", and while I traveled through Malaysia in October of that year, I had this set basically on a loop. Unlike most of their sets, this one has no gentle, melodic build-up: it comes in super hot and euphoric and it's party time immediately. Whenever I hear "Wayfarer" — the amazing Audien track that opens the show — I have a flood of memories from that time of my life. I can still vividly remember walking around Kuala Lumpur on warm evenings, listening to this mix while gazing up at the twinkling Petronas Towers. The last twenty-five minutes of this set are an absolutely perfect ascent to heaven. Without further ado, here's a small slice of dance music history! 1. Audien - Wayfarer (Intro Mix) 2. Kyau & Albert - Gluhwurmchen 3. Sunny Lax - Isla Margarita 4. Above & Beyond - Alchemy (Above & Beyond Club Mix) 5. Ronski Speed - Sanity Dub (Ronski Speed Exclusive Volume 10 Mix) 6.

Cristoph @ Audio San Francisco (2020)
It's been about a month since the last episode, and a few bits of news from that time all point to the same show, so this week we'll be revisiting Cristoph's banging set at Audio in San Francisco from early 2020. In July, the world finally received Cristoph's private edit of "Where's The Music Gone", a Pete Tong remix he's been playing in his sets for 7 years (!) without a proper release. At about the same time, Audio celebrated their 10-year anniversary with an open-to-close set by Spencer Brown. (We were at that show, as well as the Eli & Fur show a couple weeks later.) And just yesterday, Cristoph announced a September gig in San Francisco, so it seems appropriate to pull out this deep cut from the Cristoph catalog. This is a dark, hard-hitting — but also really melodic — set that's mostly typical of his sound, with lots of Eric Prydz (his mentor), Jeremy Olander, Yotto, Dosem, and the like. This show was recorded by a fan, so it includes all the audio from the room. Not surprisingly, the quality of the music is kind of poor, but all the ambient sound really captures the energy and controlled chaos of Audio: from the cheering to the chatter you can overhear to the air blasts, you'll kind of feel like you're actually there in the room. This party happened mere weeks before the coronavirus lockdown in San Francisco, so in retrospect, it was probably a super-spreader event. Enjoy the music here without the risk of contagions! 1. Everything But The Girl - Missing (Cristoph Private Intro Edit) 2. Pryda - Humlan 3. Cristoph - Middlemen 4. Pryda - Javlar 5. CamelPhat & Jake Bugg - Be Someone (Cristoph Remix) 6.

Above & Beyond @ Paradise Garage (2006)
Later today, we'll be seeing Above & Beyond play at a Pride block party here in San Francisco, so for this week I'd like to dig into the archives and pull out a really old set of theirs. This isn't the original recording, but instead one of Tony's "recreations" that he streamed during the pandemic lockdown. It's from their first show in Argentina and actually predates the release of their first album, though some of the songs from that album do make their way into the set. It's a bit of a trip to listen to their old sound, as it feels pretty different from their shows in the "Group Therapy" era. It's not better or worse, just a different style. Twenty years makes a big difference, especially in dance music. I really like the old sound, so these old sets are a treat for me. I hope you enjoy too! 1. Karen Overton - Your Loving Arms (Club Mix) 2. Yilmaz Altanhan - Eighties (Özgür Can Remix) 3. Perry O'Neil - Bass Society 4. Jaytech - Genesis (Jimbo's Afterburner Remix) 5. Maor Levi - Reflect 6.
